Eagle 1 har stängt sin verksamhet.

Uppdatering: Eagle 1 stängde för gott under 2017.

Mitt på Drottninggatan – en av Stockholms mest turisttäta gator – ligger Eagle 1. Det här är en restaurang med det där lite lustiga amerikanska temat som finns på en del ställen, som ger en distinkt känsla av att ha skapats av någon som visserligen är ett fan av USA men som enbart sett lösryckta bilder därifrån. De har en meny med lite allt möjligt men vi siktar såklart in oss på just burgarna.

Deras Boston Umami Burger serveras med tryffelmajonnäs, champinjoner, syltad lök och ost och kostar runt hundralappen med pommes frites. Rent smakmässigt är den dock svår att bedöma på grund av den dominerande tryffelsmaken som tar över helt. Tryffel kan vara fantastiskt när det används försiktigt men när det är det enda man känner smaken av blir vi snarare misstänksamma än trollbundna.

Brödet var lite för tuggigt och torrt, och köttet hade den konstiga egenskapen att innehålla köttsafter som var märkbart varmare än köttet. Och då allt bara smakade tryffel blir det svårt att rekommendera ett besök (även om du älskar tryffel över allt annat), med tanke på att de flesta andra restauranger kan hantera denna råvara mycket bättre än så här.

In English

Eagle 1 is a faux american restaurant in central Stockholm with that theme that seems to have been created by someone who has only seen the US from afar. Their burger selection consists entirely of ”specialty burgers”, without any classics where you really can taste the components. We tried the first one on the menu called the Boston Umami Burger which had truffle mayo, mushrooms, pickled onion and cheese. Sadly the truffle overpowered all the other ingredients, leaving us with different components with various truffle tasting textures.

🍔 Review № 1397

🇺🇸 @localtide ★★★★☆

Local Tide is a hyped fish restaurant in central Seattle. And while most of the menu focuses on seafood, their burger has also become a bit of a talking point. They don’t take reservations, and when we arrived there were around 20 people queuing outside the small restaurant, with an hour-long wait. Luckily, there was space next door at Aslan Brewing, which served their burger and a handful of other dishes from Local Tide. We ordered their Smash Burger with beef, cheese, caramelised onions and mayo in a brioche bun for 10 USD, as well as a portion of Salt and Pepper Fries for 8 USD. We also tried their Salmon Sando for 16 USD.

After waiting around an hour for our food, our burger arrived neatly presented on a small plate. The bun looked a little flat but was lighter and fluffier than we’d expected. The beef was incredibly juicy and well salted, while the cheese was both creamy and flavourful. The caramelised onions were packed with umami and really enhanced the flavour of the beef. Both the bun and beef had a decent crust, although both could’ve been cooked a little more. Our main critique was that the burger would’ve been even better with a few more crispy components, and perhaps a bit bigger. The fries were like potato wedges and were incredibly well cooked. The generous portion was crispy and well seasoned, and their homemade ketchup was really tasty. The 16 USD salmon burger also impressed us with its fresh salmon fillet, great textures and fresh flavours.

It’s great to see a seafood restaurant serving burgers as good as the ones at Local Tide. The other seafood dishes are of course also worth trying, but make sure to arrive early and be prepared to wait a while for your food.
