“Top pick on the Lofoten Islands”

Restaurant Karoline
Ranked #1 of 3 Restaurants in Nusfjord
Certificate of Excellence

Restaurant details
Dining options: Reservations
Description: Within the intimate, wooden walls of Restaurant Karoline, alongside the exquisite buffet breakfast and relaxed lunch options, we offer a refined evening experience with a weathered ocean view. Knowing that lasting memories are also made through the taste buds, the menu has been carefully designed by our esteemed chef Espen, and reflects the rich traditions of nordic cooking and the bountiful harvests of our saltwater realms. Among the ingredients you will find truffle seaweed, sea urchins, smoked salmon, Lofoten lamb , blue mussels, and of course the famous Lofoten cod. Our specialty is home-made stockfish, dried in the summer months on the racks and cliffs around the village and processed in our own smokery.

Delicious food - local smoked salmon followed by halibut. Friendly staff, gorgeous setting and fair pricing. If you’re in the Lofoten Islands we’d say it was definitely the top pick.

We had a three course dinner and everything was good. The fish (halibut) was fresh and perfectly cooked. The restaurant had a nice atmosphere.

Beautiful setting, inside and outside, the good is to die for, probably one of the best meals I ve had ever. I had the smoked salmon (smoked in the village) and as a sun the Halibut. So much flavour. The service was excellent, very attentive waiter/waitresses/chef. Not the cheapest but so worth it

Great location and very handy to resort guests but overpriced for average food.
Went for breakfast also and it was a very nice buffet with great coffee. 190 NOK, so, again, pricey, but a lovely breakfast in a gorgeous location.
