The establishment opened in 1925 at Torggata 14 and relocated to Waldemar Thranes gate in 1956 due to construction work in the area. This move allowed it to continue operating and become rooted in its current neighborhood.
The restaurant features in Jo Nesbø's crime novels, where the character Harry Hole frequently dines at his usual window seat. This literary connection has given the place a special role in local culture and storytelling.
The restaurant serves daily during evening hours and accepts reservations by phone. Since it offers seasonal specialties throughout the year, visiting at different times allows you to experience different menus.
The interior walls display 1926 paintings by Sigurd Fosnes depicting scenes from Oslo that have been kept intact since the restaurant's relocation in the 1950s. These artworks remain visible to diners and give the space its distinctive character.
