"During our first evening in Oslo, a very helpful desk person at the Bristol Hotel recommended Jaipur for dinner. Plus, we love Indian cuisine. There were other closer restaurants in this Theater District part of Oslo, but she was fairly dismissive of some of what we asked about. Yet, we got good directions down Karl Johan Gate and after a short walk and ascent to the 2nd Floor, we arrived a Jaipur. We were seated and waited on promptly. Looking around the room, we were probably in the minority as far as tourists go. That was great as the locals/ethnic buzz in the room added well to our experience. Our food was very tasty and with generous portions. Dining out in Oslo is expensive, with food, drinks, and tip easily reaching $100 per couple. And we did get our money's worth, although maybe we should have been more adventurous with our Tikka/Curry menu choices (with Naan and Indian beer or course). Service was attentive and payment was up front. As a good meal in a new city goes, Jaipur was a solid authentic Indian choice. But, if you want more local Norwegian cuisine experience, try the nearby Elias Mat Sant."
