What People Are Saying About Tre Kronor

The Editor

Citysearch

The Scene – Worn-in hardwood floors show signs of the heavy business that this homey, bi-level restaurant has seen through the years, a weekend destination for North Park families and couples. Colorful gnomes dance playfully in a hilly scene painted on the right wall, a cheerful mural in a simple, Swedish-flavored dining room of wooden tables situated closely together. Friendly servers handle constant foot traffic with ease while managing not to rush diners out too soon. – – The Food – Meals get a Scandinavian treatment here, fulfilling sweet and savory cravings.…

Great place for breakfast

by popa5

This place is one of the nicer, small venues in a city for simple but tasty breakfast. Pretty fast service. There could be a wait time especially on weekends. However, they have extra space upstairs.

For sweet tooth they have maple danishes, they say imported from Sweden.

  • Pros: Good hearty breakfast

Poor Service; Food not up to par

by 2106

I was very disappointed in my most recent trip here. On an early Monday night there were two servers and only a few tables but service was not good. Salad came before being finished with appetizer. Had to ask for more water. Entree came out just as finishing salad. Didn't ask about food until ready to take plates away.

Also, the food that night was only mediocre. Walnut crusted trout was not crusty but mushy. Soupy sauce that covered fish made it mushy. Bread pudding for dessert had no flavor. Maybe it was a different cook than usual but I'll not go back for some time. Too pricey for poor service and only fair food.

  • Cons: Service, quality of food for price

Cute place, Great food!

by tangy215

This place is just great! It's a quaint little restaurant on the corner with great ambiance! Everything we ordered was prepared with care and was a pleasant change from the usual breakfast places. The Sweedish spin on breakfast made it especially interesting. The fresh squeezed OJ, cinnamon roll and quiche were all excellent. The fruit was also a pleasant surprise. There was a good assortment, including strawberries, melon, kiwi, pineapple, etc. Additionally, everything was also reasonable in price ($2.25 for a small OJ, $8 for a quiche, $2 for cinnamon roll) and portion sizes are just right! We'll definitely be returning!

  • Pros: Great food and service
  • Cons: Only street parking
