Bristol Grill
Hotel Bristol Cuisines: European, ContinentalAbout
This is the premier dining room of the Hotel Bristol, one of Oslo's most prestigious hotels. You'll find old-world courtliness, formal service without a lot of flash or frenzy, and elegant decor that evokes a baronial hunting lodge from around 1924, the year the restaurant was founded. A few years later, it evolved into the dining venue you'll see today, with a gentleman's-club allure that eventually welcomed big-name entertainers. You'll pass through a cozy, woodsy-looking piano bar to reach the restaurant. With a culinary focus that has radically improved over the years, the menu continues to be one of the finest in the Norwegian capital as it beautifully adjusts to take advantage of the best ingredients in all four seasons, including winter. There's a spectacular version of bouillabaisse, prepared with Nordic (not Mediterranean) fish and seasoned with saffron, which can be ordered as either a starter or a main course. One of the chef's most successful specialties is medallions of venison sautéed with vanilla and bacon, served on a bed of mushrooms with a terrine of potatoes.
