The best European food in Sweden, according to the experts: the Michelin Guide, The 50, and the White Guide have all weighed in, and their honors are what rank this list. Frantzén comes out on top, and the good stuff runs deepest in Malmö and Stockholm.
More Less
Lyran Matbar and Restaurant Sture hold the next two places. The White Guide shows up on more of this list than any other guide, with the Michelin Guide next.

Rank 1. Frantzén
European
Twenty-three guests per sitting move through three floors of a Norrmalm townhouse as the courses arrive, which makes Frantzén less a restaurant than a choreographed evening out. The tasting menu is creative and theatrical, the room warm and upholstered in the way that signals you are not leaving quickly. It holds three Michelin stars and a spot on the World's 50 Best Restaurants list, which tells you roughly what the bill will look like.

Rank 2. Lyran Matbar
Modern European
Down the spiral staircase from the bar above, a rustic cellar holds a small, simply styled restaurant where the tasting menu arrives as a list of ingredients rather than dish names. The kitchen works out the rest daily, pulling from whatever local produce is worth celebrating, across mixed, pescetarian, and vegetarian versions. Modern Swedish cooking, unhurried service, and a room that manages to feel unfussy without trying too hard.
