Stockholm Restaurants in the Michelin Guide 2020

The 2020 Michelin Guide for restaurants in the Nordic countries was recently announced. It was a mixed bag for Stockholm restaurants with both very good news and some bad news. Good news first... Aloë received their second star and Etoile received their first star. Congratulations! That means that Stockholm now has three two star restaurants. Unfortunately, two restaurants lost their stars. Restaurant Volt (a former one star restaurant) closed their doors earlier this year and is, obviously, off the list. The other restaurant that lost their star is, sadly, Mathias Dahlgren Matbaren. Here is the full list for 2020...

3 stars ("exceptional cuisine, worth a special journey")
2 stars ("excellent cooking, worth a detour")

1 star ("a very good restaurant in its category")
Bib Gourmand (no star, but "exceptional good food at moderate prices")

Please keep in mind that the Michelin star restaurants usually need to be booked a few weeks in advance and often guaranteed with a credit card. If I had a dollar for every guest who has come to me on a Friday late afternoon and asked me for help in booking a table at a star restaurant for the same evening (only to be disappointed), I would be a rich man! If you are staying at the Hotel Rival, please contact me ahead of your visit for any assistance in booking a table. Of course, the Michelin guide isn't the end-all of restaurant guides and recommendations. There are plenty of other great restaurants in the city as well as other excellent guides
