Frantzén

Frantzén is a 23-seat restaurant in central Stockholm, set in a renovated 19th-century townhouse. The meal moves through three floors: guests change rooms as they work their way through a fixed menu. The restaurant’s website describes the experience as spanning the lobby, dining room and loft lounge.

Frantzén is open for lunch and dinner Tuesday to Friday. Reservations for the upcoming month open on the first of each month at 10 a.m. Stockholm time, so the next monthly release is December 1. For parties of five to eight, the restaurant asks guests to email its reservation team.

The website gives a separate price for private dining in the Frantzén Group Test Kitchen: SEK 5,500 per person, about $550 or £435, for a tasting menu, with a choice of beverage pairings. The private area takes eight to 16 guests. The restaurant says it cannot accommodate vegan menus or menus free from milk protein, egg and citrus. It also says it never requires advance payment for reservations. The published information does not state how long a regular visit takes.
