Frommer's Review

A little piece of New York's Old Greenwich Village came to Grünerløkka with the opening of this joint. Convivial and hip, with an aura that resembles a coffeehouse more than a full-fledged restaurant, this cafe and restaurant expands onto the sidewalks of the not-so-busy main boulevard of the Grünerløkka district. Inside you'll find a cozy interior lined with antique sofas and wooden chairs, a chattering group of young clients who all seem to know one another, and a disc jockey who spins records every Thursday to Saturday beginning at 10pm. Regardless of where you sit, the conversational babble will rise like Surround Sound to greet you. The food is competent and filling, although most cafe patrons flock here for the good times and the atmosphere. The establishment's name, incidentally, translates as "Maiden of the Garden."

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
