28+ (Guide Michelin) 
Would you like to eat a lot of quality food, we highly recommend 28+. The restaurant opened 1985. You are greeted by a simple environment with a vaulted cellar, whitewashed walls. When going here, take your time and try their whole huge menu with 5-8 dishes. Their combinations of food and wine is perfect! The service is fantastic. Their desserts just melts in your mouth, why not try their wonderful cheeses.
The interval is long between dishes, it is good, to be able to digest and discuss what you have just eaten and then be prepared for the next wine and dish.

Lilla Torgets Vinkrog 
The restaurant is located in a basement with stone vaults from the late 1600s. The building that houses the restaurant has burned several times over the years. After the last fire in 1804 the house was built in stone. The most famous Goteborg person that hanged out here was Lars Gatenhielm, called "Lasse i Gatan". He was a pirate and stored his treasures in the basement.
Some history:
Between 1710 - 1720 there were about 156 pirate ships sailing on the West Coast, Lars owned or disposed 48 ships. England lost 136 ships to Lars during this time.
The food is absolutely delicious and the staff are very knowledgeable.
