Great Italian restaurant situated at the south end of Grünerløkka. Decent prices and great food. I especially love the oxtail ravioli, which comes as both starter and main course size. In the summer it is also nice to sit outside.

Go for a walk or a run along the Akerselven (Aker river). It will take you through different neighborhoods and passing a small waterfall. Start at Grünerløkka and follow the path as far North as you bother to walk or run. Recommended!
