"Visit on 07/24/2023 We visited the restaurant around noon and ordered a la carte. I ordered a signature menu for 645 NOK with starter (reindeer tataki)/main course (grilled cod)/dessert (panna cotta) my wife ordered a risotto for 295 NOK. I was told that the reindeer tataki was out of stock but I could choose another starter. I then decided on another dish. Afterwards we unfortunately had to wait almost 1 hour, which in itself is very borderline as the restaurant was not even fully occupied. Then we both got our main course which tasted absolutely perfect. The chefs know what they are doing. However, if you read it correctly, you will now realize that something is wrong. Because my starter wasn't served beforehand. When the waitress wanted to ask me if they could serve the dessert, I asked her about it and we agreed that I would pay for the fish and the dessert separately, but that I would rather order a rhubarb parfait instead of the panna cotta. The reason why I give the service here 4 out of 5 stars is due to the action that happened now. I got my dessert relatively quickly and started to eat. Now another lady came along and also handed my wife a rhubarb parfait as house compensation. That this happened without complaining on our part at the restaurant's own initiative is worthy of all credit. However, when I wanted to pay, the price of my menu was also reduced by 50%. I've never experienced anything like this before, so it just has to be mentioned. Quality of the food 5/5 there is nothing to complain about Service needs to be faster, but problem solving is great. 4/5 Ambience is totally okay, modern restaurant at the harbor with enough outdoor seating 4/5 Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: kr 400–500 Food: 5 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4"

"The only reason I gave this 2 stars is the portions were large and the prices were reasonable (for Norway, anyway, which is overall expensive). I also give them credit for at least trying. Your vegan options in Lillihammer are limited, and this place at least has a few. It says American style pizza and as an American I 'm embarrassed it 's called that. They have 2 vegan pizza options with Oumph (a vegan meat alternative). One is California style (whatever that means the 2 basic American style pizzas are NY and Chicago, not CA... looked like a flatbread type crust, not a thin crust, but crispy flatbread in the pic). We chose the Chicago style, which is NOT deep dish. It 's a little bit of a thicker crust than a traditional NY style thin crust pizza, but nowhere near even a Sicilian style crust, let alone a deep dish Chicago style. Instead of cheese, for vegans, they use a garlic chili aioli which is basically mayonnaise (or whatever the Norwegian version of Vegenaise is). Never heard of pizza with mayo, but that was the option and we thought *maybe* it would have some kind of cheesy flavor. It didn 't. It was disgusting and we tried our best to scrape it off. The veggies were ok, sauce wasn 't great, and the crust was serviceable but not great either. My husband thought the Oumph was ok but he likes meat alternatives. I thought it was a bit rubbery but that 's more personal preference and I admit I don 't love a lot of fake meats. We did have chips and salsa which were fine. I can 't recommend this pizza at all. Even if you are with non vegans who want it with cheese the crust is mediocre and the sauce is not great. But, like I said, the portions are large and you won 't leave hungry."
