Absolutely wonderful!! Our waiter was attentive, kind, knowledgeable, and professional throughout the evening. The dishes were delicious!! In our party of five, three of us had a Swedish grandmother who was an amazing cook! Your dishes took us back to our childhood memories eating at her table. Highest compliments to the chef, and thanks so much for a fantastic dinner!!

Absolutely loved the meatballs. Have visited several times and I would say it is the best meatballs I had so far, such a comfort food to have especially on a rainy day. Nice selection of cocktails as well. However service was little disappointing the waiter was a bit rude and impatient when we try to get their attention to order.

I’d been wanting to try Aquavit for ages and it surpassed my expectations. The team was accommodating and so lovely, the food was beautiful and full of flavors, and the atmosphere was vibrant yet soothing. This may have been my best dining experience and I’m looking forward to going back soon!

A wonderful and nice super-scandinavian restaurant in London.
The Swedish classics, with snaps and drinks that fits with the dishes.
Book in advance, difficult to get a table during weekends. Strict, clean and wooden interior adds to the Scandinavian ambiance.
Great food, good wine list and attentive staff.

A meal that very much surprised me. Opened my eyes to how sophisticated Swedish food can be. Really enjoyed my meal and the experience and would return. I had the smoked salmon with dill sauce, Swedish meatballs and crepes for dessert which were all lovely and dishes I would struggle not to order again.

We had a wonderful dinner at Aquavit, and I loved absolutely everything we ordered. Plus the atmosphere! Thanks for the team serving us brilliantly and for four and a half hours! I will definitely visit again.

I only came here for a drink, but I loved the decor. Very Scandi with plenty of wood and high ceilings. Great location away from the chaos and tourist traps of Piccadilly. Service was friendly and efficient. I think I would like to eat here one day.

This is our second time returning to Aquavit, one of our favourite restaurants in London. My husband is a seafood lover and loves trying every dish on the menu. For me, I was completely blown away by the Arctic’s bird nest. It was unlike any dessert I’ve ever eaten - the contrasting textures (crunchy and soft, hot and cold, sweet and bitter) makes it a dessert that is unforgettable.

Very interesting restaurant. Went as part of a work party and we had a blast. The decor was minimalist but warm and comfortable.
We were up stair in the private room with the round table, which worked so well.
FOOD
I really appreciated the Presentation of the food. It really did wet the taste buds.
The Shrimp Skagen, toasted sourdough, dill mayonnaise was just average and nothing special at all.
Roasted duck breast, Jerusalem artichoke, Madeira jus - I really enjoyed the duck. It could have been a little bit more crispy on the outside and there could have provided more source, I think on this point, they went more for presentation, but they could have given a little pot of source. That said, the duck was well cooked and was very delicious.
As part of the set menu, we had the Warm chocolate fondant as a selection for a dessert, but I don't see it on their main menu. It was lovely, but again the there could have been more ice cream.
