It is great to see new additions to the restaurant scene in Stavanger. Recently a new place opened in Hospitalgata (located just a few steps away from Klubbgata on the way up to Nytorget) and the name of the place is Savor . The restaurant opened about a week ago and I went there with a friend on a late Tuesday afternoon. There were just a handful of other people in the restaurant and hence we could choose where to sit. We opted for a table with a view to Hospitalgata.
The place features a combination of regular tables with chairs and sofas, but also quite a big bar, colorful plush seating areas, high tables – so it looks like a restaurant and lounge kind of place. The menu is focused on burgers, ribs and steaks and the wine list is short but prices seem reasonable. The beer on tap seems to be mainly from Berentsens Brygghus with other options by the bottle. As I was driving, I ended up with a Coke in a large frosty pint glass and we ordered BBQ ribs and a burger. The service was great but then again, there were not that many others in the restaurants. Compliments to the staff for asking how I wanted my burger done!
The food was served after about 30 minutes and it came on a tray with paper on top – my burger came with fries, small portion of coleslaw and sliced pickles on the side. The burger came with cheddar cheese, mayo, caramelized onions, bacon etc. The burger was fried to medium rare and was quite a treat. My friend was happy with his BBQ ribs, and it seemed like the meat was falling off the bone. Congratulations on the opening of the new restaurant Savor! I look forward to returning to try out steak and some wine!
Pros:
- a burger and steakhouse
- stylish new place
Cons:
- is it a restaurant or a lounge?
- limited wine selection
