Expensive but worth every penny

We opted for the 7 course menu.

Each course was described with enthusiasm and in great detail (well done to Anton on his excellent use of the English language). He also injected some personal thoughts and humour into the evening which added to our enjoyable dining experience.

Difficult to choose the best dish but top 3 included the chanterelle mushroom broth, the beetroot flower and the broccolini dishes.

The most expensive meal I’ve paid for but would definitely come again!

Pros: Food, Service

Cons: Nothing

Högklassig veganmat för foodies

Jag återkommer varje sommar för upplevelsen att äta på den här restaurangen. Rätterna är spännande och kreativa och man kan köpa ett vinpaket där alla viner är passande för rätten man äter.

Disappointed, one of the worst $200 meals I’ve ever had

Seven course tasting menu, three of the courses were decent. The loud night club right next door is also inside the restaurant on weekends so there is an odd and unpleasant smell. Wine paring was particularly abysmal—multiple orange fruit wines and a sparking red! Have you ever even heard of a sparkling red? Undrinkable.

Enjoyable tasting menu

We went for the 7 course tasting menu and weren’t disappointed! The dishes were pretty inventive, with the hash brown being the clear winner for us (we’d have happily eaten a further portion each). The dessert was fab also. We enjoyed a lovely Slovenian orange wine with the meal. The only downside was the negroni my partner ordered (he was pretty disappointed); my apple cocktail was perfectly balanced between tart & sweet. Overall cost was reasonable.

Slightly disappointed

I don’t know of any other dedicated plant-based fine dining spot, so I’ve always enjoyed coming here. The last visit, though, left some lasting disappointments.

The staff was down to one waiter, which might be why the service felt incredibly impersonal. At a spot like this, one could expect to be asked for top-ups of drinks or other checkins. None of that here and you had to be quick to catch the waiter in order to get a refill.

Perhaps worse is that I suspect some of the dishes should have warmer than they were, but had cooled off considerably. I can’t say for certain, but I did get that impression.

An amazing experience!

It’s not often we get to fine dine as vegans so I’m always keen to give it a go and Vaxthuset delivered!

Not all courses were to my taste but I could tell every dish was well thought out, with some being absolutely incredible. Great staff and drinks choices with a cosy dining room vibe.

The menu is seasonal so it’s one to retry all year around.

Disappointing, but has potential to be better

I agree with a previous review: the presentation was beautiful, but the flavor was lacking. We had the 7-course meal. The setting is beautiful, and we had a great time during our visit. But I would unfortunately not pay full price for this menu.

The pre-dinner bean spread with truffle was superb, would love to make it at home. Also the dessert was lovely and so was the pickle. The rest of the dishes was meh, too tasteless. I really, really wanted to love it, but in summary: 2 out of 7 dished was worth it.

I think Växthuset has potential but I can't give a higher rating than 3/5.

Fantastic course meal

The menu is short: either a 7-course or a 5-course meal + drinks.
The dishes were small but overall it amounts to a good quantity and good quality food.

The restaurant is located right next to a club, so while the sound is not loud, it may not be the quietest place.

Be sure to book a table in advance (the menu is shared on their social media)!

Pros: good food, dining experience

Pros: Unique food experience

Vaxthuset

We got the full tasting menu and we were really disappointed. While the presentation was beautiful, the flavor was really lacking. Not to mention, the portions were so small we had to go to another restaurant immediately after leaving this place. For reference, I am a 98lb (~45kg) woman…and this was not enough food for me. Moreover, this is an odd venue for a “high-end” restaurant and it could have been kept up better (even the power plugs were cracked/broken…can’t they replace them?). The bathrooms had signs on each stall saying “only one person in each stall at all times please”. What goes on here? I don’t want to know. I wouldn’t call this a high-end restaurant. Even the service was not comparable to other high-end places I’ve been. I wouldn’t eat here again.

Extraordinary location and the best food we ever had!

Växthuset is a beautiful place „unter the bridge“ with very exceptional food - we both had to admit that we‘ve never eaten anything better. Big plus: After eating, you get free entrance to a popular party spot right outside (trädgården).

Unforgettable experience

Vaxthuset is an amazing and unique experience for plant based cuisine. It is at an upper level of culinary art from the plating to the flavors. We opted for the full 7 course menu, but there is also a smaller 5 course chef's choice option. We also enjoyed the alcohol free beverage pairing -- it was incredibly well done.

They were also very accommodating for food allergies and provided a fully gluten free dining experience for me.

I would highly recommend Vaxthuset for those seeking a unique, fine dining experience in Stockholm (and bonus -- fully vegan).

Pros: gluten free options, sustainable

Nice food, cool place, expensive

We had a great time. Really enjoyed 4 of the served courses. The other courses were just ok. So overal we think it's a bit to expensive.
It was nice to try some very Scandinavian food - the vegan version!

Pros: All vegan , Atmosphere , Fine Swedish vegan food

Cons: Expensive

Fancy fine dining goes vegan

It is rare to find fine dining experiences like this if you are vegetarian and even harder as a vegan. But this not only gives you that it does so very very well and it is relatively affordable as well. It is expensive but as far as this kind of eclectic, creative and unique fine dining goes it feels affordable.
I've eaten here a few times now and every time has been an interesting journey full of surprising discoveries.
Not every dish is all that great, sometimes some are just ok. But there is always something that is just fantastically great and unique and everything is interesting.
Highly recommended.

Pros: Everything is vegan so no need to think about it

Vegan Fine Dining in an eclectic space

Vegan fine dining restaurant with several options for a price-fixe menu. I was visiting Stockholm on a business trip with my partner and made a pilgrimage here based on the online reviews. We went for the little menu, having had a large meal earlier. We had a deconstructed salad which was pretty good, zucchini four ways which was just alright (some of them were excellent, but some could use more flavor), and a raspberry ice cream dessert which was incredible. Definitely our favorite thing there. Overall I wasn’t wowed but had some pretty solid food. Our server was very sweet and animated, and we were treated to some beautiful music from symphony orchestra at the performance venue next door. Funnily enough I was at the venue the night before for a work party, that place is VERSATILE! It can go from nightclub to classical venue like NOTHING! I feel bad for whoever was eating at Vaxthuset the night before and had to hear our karaoke…

Very high quality

I had the five course menu and was very happy. I made a reservation knowing the menu would be mainly plant forward and not a big veggie burger, lol. Really unique flavors (anything with the saurkraut mayo is amazing) and thoughtfully prepared. Happy I had this experience.

Also, if you go to the restaurant you can get into the club below free😄

The best vegan restaurant in Stockholm

We have tested more or less all the vegan restaurants in Stockholm and Vaxthuset is the very best. It’s easy to understand that there are educated chefs and not improvised. All the ingredients are seasonal and of very high quality. The dinner takes more or less two hours but it’s so because the food is served with care and precision.
It’s not a quick lunch restaurant but a real restaurant. We plan soon a new visit.

Fine dinig vegam

One of the best vegan fine dining restaurants in Stockholm. Been going here for a few years, seasonal menu. Even if I dont always like all the courses (picky eater) the experience is always worth it. 😊 You can choose between 3 or 5, I usually pick 5 and gets REALLY full. Nice cockails and wine.

Pros: Only vegan options, Fine dining, Seasonal dishes

Cons: Can be some loud music, close to nightclub

Not worth the fuss

The menu is seasonal which is great. It was unfortunately the only good point.

We had the 5 course menu but the portions were so small that we left still hungry !

The food itself was ok but rather plain. The main dish was basically just zucchini, and way too sour. We enjoyed the dessert, though.

Every dish was served neither warm nor cold. It was presented in one plate for two people. We had to dispatch it ourselves in individual plates, which made a mess, mixing all the sauces and flavors.

The service was very slow and unnecessarily posh.

It was extremely expensive for this amount and quality of food.

All in all, mediocre food not worth the fuss nor the money !

Pros: Seasonal, Good dessert

Cons: Plain food, Way too expensive, Slow service

Fine dining

I tried the 5 course menu, it was great food very tasty but to be honest it was not a lot of food. After 5 courses I expect to feel quite full but I didn’t. It was a very nice experience though😄

Tasting Menu

Easily among the best vegan food I've ever eaten. Cool space, friendly & knowledgeable staff. We had the 5 course tasting menu and it was seasonal and contained some real winners like the Sunflower Seeds Ice Cream. The Semolina Porridge was also excellent. The beverage menu matches the food menu in terms of local focus and I enjoyed some really nice local brews with my food. Vegetarian and vegan fine-dining options are preciously few and far between, which makes a visit to Växhuset both enjoyable, but also necessary (simply to show support for such concepts).

Pros: Really creative, seasonal dishes, Local ingredients and locally sourced beverages

Cons: Some courses/dishes on the small side
