À L’aise is the Majorstuen fine-dining restaurant known for classical French cooking with Nordic ingredients. Its archived food posts show the restaurant’s approach through dishes such as chicken with morels and a refined interpretation of a Danish pancake. Those posts document the previous kitchen and should be read as historical examples of its style. In August 2026, Ulrik and Mia Jepsen announced on the official restaurant account that they were stepping away immediately. The former website and menu page are unavailable, and current service under any new operator could not be verified. Check directly before making plans; the departure announcement alone does not establish a permanent closure.
Tatakii is an Asian restaurant near Frognerparken at Majorstuen. It draws on Japanese and Chinese cooking, with sushi, crispy duck, wok dishes and dim sum listed on its own site. The menu also includes a changing tasting option and scheduled specials, so there is a choice between a single dish and a longer meal. Check the current menu and any themed offers before booking; special menus are tied to particular days or dates rather than available at every sitting.

Delicatessen is a go-to classic for casual and authentic Spanish tapas in Oslo, offering rich flavors in cozy, welcoming settings. The menu features an enticing spread of shared plates ranging from juicy albondigas and patatas bravas to pimientos de padrón and cured meats, with most dishes priced around 90 to 180 NOK. A good rule of thumb is ordering about 3 to 4 dishes per person for a satisfying meal, or simply filling the table to share everything with the group. A total must try is their creamy chèvre chaud served with honey and nuts. The concept works brilliantly whether you are on a low-key date for two or bringing a bigger group together around a long table. With favorite spots in Grünerløkka, Majorstuen, and Aker Brygge, you are never far from a proper Spanish tapas feast. Just make sure to clarify which location you are meeting at beforehand, as I have definitely made that mistake and shown up at the wrong spot myself.

Attending a live taping of Nytt pa nytt at NRK Marienlyst is a unique and hilarious night out in Oslo. Instead of waiting for the edited TV broadcast on Friday, you get to experience the raw and unfiltered show in person. It is super fun to see the three main hosts, Bard Tufte Johansen, Kristine Grændsen, and Johan Golden, alongside two guest panelists up close on stage. One of the best parts of being in the audience is seeing how the comedy actually happens in real time. You get to witness jokes being tested live, improvised banter between the hosts, and all the hilarious moments that never make the final TV cut. The studio atmosphere is energetic, warm, and constantly filled with laughter.

Spillbaren Majorstuen fills two floors at Bogstadveien 54 with shuffleboard, darts, billiards, karaoke, and selected arcade games. The bar has social seating as well as bookable games. Group packages combine two hours of play with the option to include drinks or food. The venue does not have its own kitchen, but guests are welcome to order food from other restaurants or through Wolt and Foodora. For larger groups, a dedicated group menu is available with catering provided by their sister restaurant, Casa Pisano. Book the specific game or package you want rather than assuming every activity is available on arrival.
