Step into Brasserie Astoria and you enter a stage set for modern Stockholm's most vibrant social scenes. Housed within a meticulously restored historic cinema, the space retains all the opulent drama of its past—high ceilings, grand arches, and a palpable sense of occasion—while pulsating with a fresh, infectious energy. This is the Frantzén Group's masterful interpretation of the classic brasserie: a place where the timeless appeal of steak frites and champagne collides with a buzzing, contemporary crowd. The atmosphere is one of glamorous, confident chaos, where the clatter of cutlery and the hum of conversation create a soundtrack for a night that feels both timeless and utterly now.
The menu is a tour de force of brasserie classics, refined with a distinct Nordic-Asian accent. Signature theatrics include the tableside preparation of their Caesar Salad and the dramatic Cognac Flambéed Beef Tenderloin. The staples—from the perfect Duck Frites to pristine oysters—are executed with a precision that belies the restaurant's bustling energy.
The vibe is unapologetically lively and inclusive, attracting a mix of creative professionals, savvy business lunchers, and celebratory groups. By night, the energy intensifies, often accompanied by a DJ, transforming the grand room into the city's most elegant dinner party.
Our Concierge Note:
Astoria’s appeal is its dynamic versatility. It is equally suited for a high-energy business lunch as it is for a celebratory feast. Our role is to secure a table in the ideal zone—whether a prime central banquette to feel the pulse of the room or a slightly quieter perch for conversation. We ensure your clients experience the full spectacle, from the trolley-service desserts to the perfectly timed cocktail. This is the definitive spot for clients who want their dinner to be an event, not just a meal.
