The terrace seating was really comfortable, not too cramped. I had the toast Skagen and it was good, creamy but not heavy. Ended with vanilla ice cream and strawberries, simple and fresh. Waitress checked in at the right moments without hovering. Only thing, the chairs could use a bit more cushioning after an hour. But overall a pleasant spot to sit outside.

The meatballs were the star. Properly seasoned, juicy, not dry at all. Lingonberry on the side cut through the richness just right. Menu had gluten-free marked clearly, which helped. Portion was decent for the price. Would eat those meatballs again.

The place looks nice inside, and the food&rsquo;s okay. I&rsquo;ve had better Thai for less money though. Portion felt a bit small for what you pay.

Right on the beach, can&#39;t beat that spot. Grabbed their famous wienerbr&ouml;d and it was still warm, super buttery. Queue moved fast enough, got my pastry in like five minutes. Solid quick stop if you&#39;re walking along the shore. Just wish they had more seating, ended up eating standing by the railing. Still, that pastry made it worth it.

Underground seating was the vibe. Ox cheek lived up to the hype, super tender. Solid spot for a proper dinner in Ystad. Price was a bit steep but whatever.

Stopped by for lunch after a walk along the pier. Shrimp and schnitzel were solid, nothing fancy but cooked right. Service was quick, which I appreciated since I was short on time. Location is the main draw, right on the water. Prices are a bit steep for what you get, but you&#39;re paying for the view. Fine for a casual stop.

Friendly owner, lovely courtyard&mdash;good spot to just hang. Beer was solid, though a bit steep for what you get. Would&rsquo;ve liked a better wine option to pair with it.

Cozy little spot, dim lighting and all. Pizza was solid, staff friendly. Maybe a bit cramped but it worked.

The burger was okay but the meat lacked flavor. Toppings helped. Tons of TVs if you&#39;re there to watch a game. Service was quick.

The chef&rsquo;s choice with wine pairing was spot on. Each dish came out clean and well-seasoned, and the pours matched nicely. Place kept a calm vibe too. Maybe a bit pricey, but I left satisfied.

The fried pork belly was good but honestly the portion felt a bit small for the price. Camembert with cloudberries was the best part though. Came back for a second dinner anyway.

Been coming here for a while now. Coffee&#39;s consistent and the refills are free, which is a plus. Danish sandwiches are still solid for a quick bite.

Came here for the first time and honestly the crust got me&mdash;thin in the middle, puffy and crunchy at the edges. That&rsquo;s exactly how I like it. Service was quick too, which I didn&rsquo;t expect on a busy evening. Place itself is pretty simple, nothing fancy, but it works. Would go back just for that pizza.

The gluten-free pizza surprised me&mdash;simple, fresh, not the usual cardboard situation. I had a glass of their house red with it, decent enough for a casual spot. Service was patient when my daughter swapped her drink last minute. Nothing fancy, but it worked. Maybe a bit slow on the refill, but I wasn&#39;t in a rush.

Boiled veal with dill sauce was solid, well cooked. Service quick and friendly. Fine for a business lunch, nothing fancy but decent value.

Decent spot for a casual night out. Small plates were good for sharing and the drinks were fine. Got pretty busy though, so service slowed down a bit.

Nice views and the fish was solid. I had a white wine that paired well with the catch of the day. They do have a few veggie things too, cheese pie and baked potatoes. Service was a bit slow but the view made up for it.

Sushi was really fresh, the salmon just melted. Took it as takeaway and ate by the harbour. Staff smiled, kept it simple. Probably my new go-to in Ystad, even if it&rsquo;s a bit pricey for what you get. Still, nice to find a spot like this here.

The sake pairing with their sushi was spot on &mdash; light and crisp, cut through the fish nicely. Tried the sharing plate too, decent way to sample a few things. Service kept it relaxed.

The staff here were genuinely friendly, not just going through the motions. Place is small though, so when it fills up you&#39;re basically elbowing your neighbor. I had a decent glass of red with the lamb, worked well enough. Not the most extensive wine list but they had a couple of solid options. Fine for a casual weeknight stop.

The cocktails here are really creative, with a nice local Swedish touch. We sat at the bar and had a great view of the cathedral. Prices are a bit high, but you can tell the quality is there.

Been coming here for a while now, and the pasta alla vodka still hits the same every time. Creamy, not too heavy, just right. You can tell actual Italians run the place. Staff remembered me from last visit, which was nice. Lund doesn&#39;t have many spots like this, so I keep going back.

The set menu felt a bit rigid&mdash;if you order a la carte, you can&rsquo;t pick from the tasting menu. Food was good, but the rules made it less relaxing than I&rsquo;d hoped.

The schnitzel was really good&mdash;crispy and big enough to share if you&#39;re not starving. We sat downstairs in the basement, which felt super cozy. It got a bit loud once more people came in, but honestly that just made it feel like a fun spot for a casual dinner with friends. Would come back for that schnitzel again 🙂

The marinated tuna was really good&mdash;fresh, clean flavor. Tempura and the panko scallops were solid too. Service was a bit uneven, but honestly the food carried the meal. I&#39;d come back for the tuna alone.

A lovely experience, with excellent food and great service

Came in for Saturday lunch, didn&rsquo;t expect almost everything to be gluten and lactose free. Had the fish soup with croutons, that was the standout. Place was packed though, tables are a bit tight when it&rsquo;s full. Fine if you&rsquo;re not in a hurry.

The pastries here are really good, and the staff were friendly. But it gets so loud inside when it&#39;s busy. I could barely hear myself think. Maybe some soundproofing would help. Still, I&#39;d come back for the almond croissant. Just maybe at a quieter time of day.
