Cru

A familiar name reborn on the Bjørvika waterfront — classic French execution with no shortcuts, and one of 2025's strongest Oslo openings. The scallops, fried frog legs, and pata negra toast are standouts, the wine list rewards exploration, and both lunch and dinner are served. Come at lunch for a relaxed pace, dinner for the full experience, with the waterfront setting as the backdrop. It is serious French cooking done properly — a name with history, relaunched in a prime waterfront location, executing the classics with real discipline. For travellers who want refined French food in modern Oslo, it's among the best of the recent arrivals.
