“Happiness is our passion – happy chefs, happy vegetables, and happy animals. As a side effect, we get exceptional professionals working with dedication to make incredible food, and smiling guests. We aim for a clean and fresh expression from free-range, organic, and local products. The produce in Trøndelag benefits greatly from the northern climate and reflects our terroir, through outstanding produce such as scallops, crayfish, and wild fish from the coastline, to dairy and lamb from the mountains.”

Sourdough with fermented potato and rye served with sour cream and lardo; squid ink linguine with seared squid and mussel sauce; celeriac “croissant” with hazelnuts, pickled celeriac, hazelnut sauce, and caviar.

Røst Teaterbistro is located in Trøndelag theatre, and the room is suitably draped in red velvet. Tonight’s show consists of fifteen servings from a creative and ambitious kitchen with a clear vision: to serve you a piece of the local fauna through their vegetable and seafood-based menu. The restaurant is well known for local ingredients from farms like Voll and Opeggen, and their juice-pairing with pure flavours of sorrel and sea buckthorn. The menu practically lists how much time you will spend choosing the three-course, five-course, or full set menu. Either way, Røst delivers a show worth standing ovation.

“Røst maintains its position as one of the frontrunners for the city’s best restaurant.”
