On a freezing sunday afternoon where countless other "overrated" brunch spots are boasting 45-minute waits, lies this unexpectedly fantastic brunch spot! You must order their brunch specialty: Baked eggs! served casserole style in a cast iron skillet accompanied with potatoes au gratin. As a frequent brunch goer in both villages, this is hands down one of my favorites. for $16.99, your meal comes with a cocktail and tea/or coffee. With extremely attentive and elegant waitstaff, you shall experience scandinavian food at its best!

Pros: Delicious food, attentive and courteous service, comfortable non snooty environment

It was my best friend's birthday and she insisted I pick a restaurant where we can sit outside so I chose Smorgas Chef. I have never been there but always am passing it so knew it would be a nice new place to try out. Glad I chose right place! my friends and I all ordered a bunch of different dishes to share. We got Swedish Meatballs, Mussels, Gravlaxs and the Pepper Steak. For dessert, we shared one of each on the menu. The Waffles, Apple Tart and Chocolate Mousse were all so yummy! The drinks took a little long to make but probably because we ordered their house special drinks with freshly muddled fruits. But they were refreshing in taste and beautiful to look at and definitely worth the wait. I will recommend Smorgas Chef to all my other friends, and will be making another reservation there for myself soon, maybe next time for brunch!
