The Best Restaurants for Wine Lovers in Stockholm

Adria

Stockholm, Sweden

An Italian family operation in Vasastan with roots stretching back to the 1970s, Adria takes a measured approach to classical Italian cooking in a neighbourhood that leans Nordic by default. The kitchen applies a modern lens to regional Italian tradition without chasing trends, making it one of the more considered Italian tables in central Stockholm.

Aleks y Filip

Stockholm, Sweden

Aleks y Filip sits on Bjälbogatan in Södermalm, holding a White Star recognition from Star Wine List — a signal that its wine program is taken seriously within Stockholm's dining circuit. The address places it in a residential pocket of the city where neighbourhood restaurants increasingly compete on precision rather than spectacle. A considered stop for those tracking Stockholm's quieter, wine-forward dining tier.

Aloë

Stockholm, Sweden

2 Michelin stars

Among Stockholm's two-Michelin-star tier, Aloë on Luntmakargatan operates where creative cooking meets measured ritual. Chef Niclas Jönsson leads a kitchen recognised by both Michelin (two stars, 2024 and 2025) and La Liste, placing Aloë in the narrow bracket of Stockholm restaurants that compete on European terms. The format rewards patience: this is dinner as a considered sequence, not a casual evening out.

Astrids

Stockholm, Sweden

A modest neighbourhood restaurant in Bromma, roughly fifteen minutes from central Stockholm on the green metro line, Astrids earned the Star Wine List number-one ranking in 2022. The room is small and unpretentious, and the food and wine programme together make a case for looking beyond the city centre when eating in the Swedish capital.

At Six

Stockholm, Sweden

At Six occupies a considered position in Stockholm's hotel dining scene, where the interplay between kitchen, sommelier program, and front-of-house shapes an experience built on collaboration rather than any single signature. Located at Brunkebergstorg in central Stockholm, the property sits within one of the city's more architecturally deliberate addresses, placing it in a tier where design discipline and service coherence matter as much as what arrives on the plate.

Bergamott

Stockholm, Sweden

Den lilla restaurangen smälter in i fasaden på Hantverkargatan som myllrar förbi, men väl på insidan transformeras den till Rue de l’Artisanat när våra sinnen förflyttas söderut. Charmigt patinerad inredning, nedbrunna ljus i tennljusstakar och lågmälda franska toner från högtalarna skapar genuin, mysig kvarterskrogskänsla. Baren i mörkt trä bjuder in till ett glas vin, kanske med ett fat sniglar som tilltugg? Vinlistan är lång och uteslutande fransk, övrigt sortiment betydligt mindre omfångsrik

Brasserie Astoria

Stockholm, Sweden

Brasserie Astoria brings classic French brasserie form to Östermalm's Nybrogatan 15, operating under the Frantzén name and holding a Michelin Plate in both 2024 and 2025. Ranked #58 in Opinionated About Dining's Casual Europe list in 2023 before settling at #130 in 2024, it occupies the approachable end of Stockholm's premium dining tier.

Stockholm, Sweden

Located in Djursholm, Stockholm's prosperous northern suburb, Brasserie Greta holds a White Star from Star Wine List, a credential that signals a wine program taken seriously rather than assembled for show. The restaurant sits at the quieter end of Stockholm's dining spectrum, away from the inner-city concentration of tasting-menu counters, offering a brasserie format that rewards those willing to travel beyond the central postcode.

Café Cuvée

Stockholm, Sweden

A compact French bistro on Södermalm's Högbergsgatan, Café Cuvée trades in shareable snacks, smaller plates, and serious cheese, earning the Star Wine List number-one ranking in 2023. The room runs small and fills with locals, which tells you something useful about its standing in the neighbourhood. For Stockholm's wine-forward bistro tier, this is the reference point.

Capannone

Stockholm, Sweden

On Roslagsgatan in Stockholm's Vasastan district, Capannone occupies the territory where Italian structure meets Nordic produce — a positioning that separates it from the city's Michelin-chasing fine-dining tier and the direct trattoria circuit alike. Where Stockholm's top tables increasingly operate through tasting menus and advance booking queues, Capannone reads as a different kind of proposition: ingredient-led, European in technique, and grounded in the character of the street it sits on.

ergo.

Stockholm, Sweden

1 Michelin star

Occupying the Östermalm address once held by Michelin-starred Gastrologik, ergo. carries the weight of that reputation forward under Chef Jason Balestrieri. The room splits between a plant-lined ground floor and a moodier cellar with exposed brickwork, framing a menu that draws on Nordic minimalism, Finnish influences, and French seasonal produce. Star Wine List ranked it number one in 2025.

Frantzén

Stockholm, Sweden

3 Michelin stars

Frantzén sits at the high-control end of Stockholm dining, where Nordic ingredients, French technique and Asian references are folded into a choreographed townhouse format. Björn Frantzén's training at Edsbacka Krog, Chez Nico and L'Arpège gives the restaurant its technical grammar, but the larger story is Stockholm's shift from spare New Nordic minimalism toward immersive, multi-room fine dining.

Hillenberg

Stockholm, Sweden

A Michelin Plate-recognised address close to Stureplan, Hillenberg draws from both Scandinavian and southern European cooking traditions in a large but approachable room.

La Tour

Stockholm, Sweden

La Tour brings the refined penthouse-restaurant format to Stockholm's Kungsholmen district, drawing comparisons to equivalent rooms in London, New York, and Paris. Positioned at the upper end of the city's dining scene, it operates in a bracket where setting, service architecture, and kitchen ambition carry equal weight.

Le Bon Canon

Stockholm, Sweden

Le Bon Canon on Scheelegatan earned a White Star from Star Wine List in 2024, placing it among Stockholm's recognised addresses for serious wine programming. Situated in Kungsholmen, the restaurant draws a crowd that reads a list as carefully as it reads a menu. For visitors building a Stockholm dining itinerary around cellar depth rather than headline tasting menus, it belongs on the shortlist.

Leijontornet

Stockholm, Sweden

A Gamla Stan fixture with consecutive Michelin Plate recognition (2024–2025) and six Star Wine List appearances in each of the past two years, Leijontornet holds its ground in Stockholm's Old Town at a mid-range price point that few comparable kitchens match. European cooking with a creative edge and a wine program serious enough to earn repeated specialist notice makes it one of the neighbourhood's most consistent returning-visitor addresses.

Macelleria

Stockholm, Sweden

Macelleria sits at Solnavägen 1b in Stockholm's Vasastan district, operating in a city where ingredient provenance has become the central argument of serious dining.

Mancini

Stockholm, Sweden

Among Stockholm's Italian restaurants, Mancini occupies a particular position: classically minded, white-tablecloth formal, and committed to the kind of lunch service that the city's Nordic-focused dining scene rarely prioritises. The seafood risotto has become a reference point for regulars. At Tunnelgatan 1A, it functions as a reliable counterweight to the New Nordic tasting menu circuit.

Also recognized by Star Wine List

Oaxen Krog

Stockholm, Sweden

Oaxen Krog brings Magnus Ek's nature-led Nordic cooking from a remote island to Stockholm's Djurgården peninsula, with five appearances on the World's 50 Best Restaurants list between 2006 and 2010 anchoring its reputation. Seasonal produce from Scandinavian producers, vegetable-forward plating, and a drinking culture rooted in snaps and aquavit make this one of the city's most coherent expressions of the Nordic fine dining tradition.

Operakällaren

Stockholm, Sweden

1 Michelin star

Operakällaren occupies one of Stockholm's most architecturally significant dining rooms, inside the Royal Opera House on Karl XII:s torg. Holding a Michelin star since at least 2024 and a sustained presence on the Star Wine List rankings, it represents the older, more formal strand of Swedish fine dining — one that predates the New Nordic wave and has survived it with its identity largely intact.

Riche

Stockholm, Sweden

Operating from the same address on Birger Jarlsgatan since 1893, Riche is one of Stockholm's most enduring institutions for classical Swedish cooking.

It occupies a distinct position in a city now dominated by tasting-menu formats and New Nordic minimalism.

Stockholm, Sweden

On Birger Jarlsgatan, one of Stockholm's most commercially active thoroughfares, The Sparrow Bistro occupies a position that rewards those willing to look past the street's retail noise. The bistro format places it in a tier distinct from the city's tasting-menu-only circuit, offering a more occasion-flexible entry point into Stockholm's serious dining scene without sacrificing culinary ambition.

Villa Dagmar

Stockholm, Sweden

A Stockholm hotel and restaurant on Nybrogatan holding a White Star designation from Star Wine List, Villa Dagmar sits in the quieter, residential grain of Östermalm rather than the city's more performative dining corridors. The wine program earns editorial attention, positioning the venue within Stockholm's growing cohort of properties where the cellar and the kitchen receive equal weight.

Vineriet on Roslagsgatan 15 has earned a White Star recognition from Star Wine List, placing it among Stockholm's more seriously considered wine-focused addresses.

A measured choice for guests whose priority is the glass, not the room.

Also recognized by Star Wine List

Vingården

Stockholm, Sweden

Vingården occupies a prime address on Lilla Nygatan in Stockholm's Gamla Stan, where Daniel Crespi has built a dual identity around charcoal-grilled meat and fish alongside a wine program that gives the venue its name. The kitchen keeps moving — dishes and formats shift rather than settle — which makes it a better target for repeat visitors than those seeking a fixed reference point. Booking ahead is the sensible approach for Gamla Stan dining at this level.

Born from the team behind Södermalm wine bar Folii, Voisine occupies the neighbouring space on Erstagatan as a casual French bistro pitched at the mid-range end of Stockholm's dining scene.
