The food served in this old shopping arcade is a mishmash of flavours: Japanese, Nordic, Chinese etc. One of the Adam/Albin restaurants, Misshumasshu is a great pick for a quick and delicious meal or drink smack in the middle of Stockholm. The ramen is topped with tender pork belly, coriander and vegetables in a well balanced black garlic broth. A side salad of kale with parmesan, raisins and pine nuts is simply delicious. The evening menu steps up the game with hamachi, quail and squid in the main courses. And some folks come here just for the cold drinks and the music.
Miyakodori is a laid-back Izakaya or Japanese-style gastro-pub, specializing in yakitori and small dishes. The restaurant is the brainchild of chefs Max Westerlund Inazawa, John Forsell, and Lars Brennwald, who have a combined experience from top restaurants in Sweden and Japan. The heart of Miyakodori is its charcoal grill, where skewers and other dishes are prepared to order, ensuring a unique blend of juicy flavors and smoky crispiness.

Miyakodori is a Japanese Izakaya/gastro-pub in Stockholm. They offer a changing menu of yakitori cooked over burning charcoal and small dishes. Super friendly service and a relaxed and homey atmosphere. The owners had to wait a few years before opening, because they had difficulties finding a suitable restaurant space for their concept. Luckily after many Pop Ups Max, John and Lars finally found a space where they could realize their dreams together. Miyakodori on Upplandsgatan is wonderful. The owners have previously worked in Stockholm's best restaurants and Max in Japan.
Totemo Ramen offers a select menu focused on rich vegan ramen bowls, featuring handcrafted noodles and high-quality organic ingredients. This ramen eatery is an ideal spot for a nourishing lunch, with its bowls filled with perfectly cooked noodles satisfying ramen cravings. Keep in mind that the place is pretty small with limited seating, so there might be a short wait for your steaming bowl of ramen.

A must!A must. A reason to go to Stockholm (and there are not that many). Go for a double sausage with some of Günther's special sauce.
Viet Kitchen is an authentic Vietnamese restaurant nestled on the lower ground floor in Söderhallarna at Södermalm, known for its traditional family recipes from Hanoi, North Vietnam. The eatery is highly recommended for its beef and chicken pho, both offering a rich, natural flavor from the protein used, complemented by a standout chili sauce and pickled garlic on the side. Despite its high-quality dishes, the prices are affordable with a big bowl of pho priced at just 95SEK, making Viet Kitchen a favored choice for budget-friendly meals.

I was really happy to discover an authentic Vietnamese eatery located on lower ground floor in Söderhallarna at Södermalm, Stockholm - Viet Kitchen. The owner is from Hanoi, north of Vietnam and cooks his family recipes. I can really recommend you to try both the beef pho and the chicken pho. Both broths are absolutely delicious and has a solid, fatty, natural flavor from the chosen protein. What really makes this pho stand out is the sides of an outstanding chili sauce and pickled garlic with high acidity, which I personally love to add A LOT to my pho. The price for a big bowl of deliciousness is only 95SEK, so this little joint goes straight in to my personal favorite cheap eats in Stockholm (which, to be frank, are hard to find). They don’t have Instagram, but make sure to support this eatery and try one of their delicious pho soups!
Strömmingsvagnen is a well-known food truck specializing in fried Baltic herring, a traditional Swedish fish meal. Offering tasty dishes like the classic fried Baltic herring with mashed potatoes, or the rye crisp bread with pickled fried Baltic fish, cucumber, onions, and herb mayonnaise, it's a must-visit spot for fish lovers. With its iconic status and affordable prices ranging from 5-10 euros, Strömmingsvagnen brings a unique culinary experience right on the streets.

Fried Baltic herring from a food truck-a must when in Stockholm!A traditional Swedish fish meal for 5-10 euros? Yes, this is the case at Strömmingsvagnen-the iconic fried Baltic herring food truck in Stockholm. The food truck-more known under the text of the sign ”Nystekt strömming” (fresh fried Baltic herring)-has been around for ages at Slussen, now on the Old Town side on Kornhamnstorg. Fried Baltich herring with mashed potatoes is the classic, I prefer the knäckebröd rye crisp bread with pickled fried Baltic fish, cucumber, onions and herb mayonnaise. Addictive!
Brunos Korvbar - Östermalm is a popular food truck known for its impressive variety of sausages, including the spicy kabanoss. The restaurant offers a simple, fast, and flavorful street food experience, with the option to customize your hot dog with toppings like pickles or classic mustard. A family-run business since 1992, Brunos Korvbar has been recognized by various media outlets and even recommended in culinary books.

This is what street food should always be: Bold flavours, good products, simplicity and fastness. Bruno’s is a Stockholm landmark and should be treated like such, even though in the end it’s a food truck with a makeshift outside seating area. Your focus should be the hot dogs - there are several types of sausage to choose from, from the more spicy (and spiced) one to the more subtle. Choose your toppings - from several pickles to the all-time classic mustard -, grab a cold beer and be merry.
