In the corner of Scheelegatan 8 and Bergsgatan 15 in Kungsholmen, you’ll find Lokal Izakaya, a restaurant and bar with one leg in Japan and the other in Scandinavia. Here you get an experience out of the ordinary, whether you just want to have a drink at the bar or you’re looking for a night out.

The menu has its roots in Sweden but is inspired by Asia. You’ll find everything from veal tartar and Swedish pike perch to fried udon and onigiri. Local Izakaya has a clear focus on high-quality ingredients, and the concept is primarily tasting menus a la sharing style, where everybody shares the dishes.

After dinner, you can end the evening with a delicious cocktail at the bar, which is decorated with an impressive painting (8 x 3 meters) of Japanese geishas. The rest of the interior is classy and stylish with a lovely mix of Scandinavia and Asia – on the wall shelves you will find everything from Dalecarlia horse to Japanese tea sets. Add a great ambiance and first-class service, and you have a perfect concept.

Welcome to Lokal Izakaya!
