Stykke is known for its massive, New York-inspired pizzas featuring a thin, crispy crust and quality ingredients since 2018. You can either share a whole 50 cm pizza or mix and match your favorites slice by slice straight from the counter. They have two locations: the old boiler house at Hasle (featuring indoor seating and a large outdoor terrace) and right in the city center on Universitetsgata. With its relaxed vibe, it is an ideal spot for a quick lunch, take-away, or a casual pizza night with friends.

A classic neighborhood restaurant focused on quality ingredients and a reliable menu. Familiar but quality-conscious. Located in a quiet corner of Bislett, Kolonialen is a cozy restaurant and wine bar. The venue is run by industry professionals with backgrounds from top kitchens like Maaemo, which shines through in the quality of both the food and beverage program. The menu is seasonal and centered on clean ingredients, paired with an extensive wine list featuring over 800 curated bottles. Prices lean toward the higher side, but the vibe remains relaxed and informal, making it just as great for dinner as for a few glasses at the wine bar.
