Itamae är en kedja med japanska restauranger runt om i Stockholm som främst fokuserar på sushi, men i Sundbybergsrestaurangen Itamae Sushi & Grill har de en burgare på menyn. Vi recenserade dem redan 2015, och blev glatt överraskade över den höga kvaliteten och det låga priset. Men fem år är lång tid, och i och med den hårdnande konkurrensen i området så var det dags för ett nytt besök.

Menyn och prissättningen hade ändrats litet grand sedan sist, och denna gång beställde vi en aningen dyrare cheeseburgare med chilimajonnäs för 115 kronor, inklusive pommes frites. Burgaren serverades i ett lite för stort och ganska tuggigt bröd, och innehöll förutom de dubbla osttäckta köttskivorna även ett överdimensionerat salladsblad, rödlök, tomat och den tidigare nämnda chilimajonnäsen. Själva burgaren såg ganska snygg ut, men köttet var alldeles för mjukt och varmt. Konsistensen var nästan porös, och vi hade gärna sett mer kryddning av köttet. Chilimajonnäsen var riktigt stark och tog över smaken helt. Vi gillade den dock som dippsås till de goda och härligt friterade pommes fritesen.

Itamae Sushi & Grills burgare är inte lika billig eller bra som tidigare, och med det starka utbudet i Sundbyberg så står de sig inte lika väl i konkurrensen längre. Tidigare så rekommenderade vi helt klart burgaren framför sushin, men numera är de nog jämnbra.

Itamae is a chain with Japanese restaurants in Stockholm that mainly focuses on sushi, but Itamae Sushi & Grill out in Sundbyberg also serves a burger. We first reviewed them back in 2015, and were a bit blown away by the high quality and low price. But 5 years is a long time, and seeing as the area has several high-profile competitors nowadays it was time to visit them again.

The menu and pricing had changed a bit since our last visit, and this time we ordered their cheeseburger with chili mayo for 115 SEK (12 USD), including an order of fries. The burger came served in an oversized and slightly chewy bun, and in addition to the two cheese-covered patties it also contained an overly large lettuce leaf, red onions, tomato and the aforementioned chili mayonnaise. The actual hamburger looked good, but the beef patty was far too soft and scorchingly hot. The consistency was a bit porous, and it could have done with some more seasoning. The chili mayo was very spicy and overpowered most of the other flavours as well. We did like it as a dipping sauce for their tasty fries though.

Itamae Sushi & Grill’s burger isn’t as cheap or as good as before, and Sundbyberg boasts a lot of other great burger joints nowadays. Previously we definitely recommended their burger instead of the sushi, but they’re probably pretty even nowadays.

Recension från 21 september 2015

Recension skriven av John Wästerlund

Itamae är en japansk kedja som har fem restautanger runt om i Stockholm som för det mesta fokuserar på sushi. Men ute i Sundbyberg har de adderat grill till namnet och serverar även hamburgare. Sushi och burgare låter inte som den bästa av kombinationer, men eftersom just deras burgare har fått gott rykte skippade vi fisken helt under vårt besök och fokuserade på grilldelen.

Ska du ha en burgare består urvalet endast av en cheeseburgare med pommes frites för 95 kronor. De håller burgaren nästan lika enkel som burgarmenyn i sig, och den består av två tunnare genomstekta köttpuckar med ost, sallad, shiitakesvamp och lite tryffelmajonnäs.

Resultatet av denna enkelhet är riktigt bra; köttet är saftigt och gott även när det är genomstekt och vi känner smakerna av alla komponenter. Inte ens tryffelmajonnäsen tar över smaken utan används istället som en krydda med bra effekt. Se dock upp med den extra tryffelmajonnäsen som kommer som dipp till pommes fritesen – den är urgod men kan verkligen slå ut dina smaklökar helt.

Itamae serverar helt enkelt en riktigt bra burgare till ett utmärkt pris, och vi hoppas verkligen att den tar sig till flera av deras restauranger.

🇸🇪 @thellas_foodtruck ★★★★☆

Thellas is a food truck in Gävle that we’ve heard a lot of positive things about since they opened in 2024. The menu at the time of our visit consisted of four beef burgers and a vegetarian option. We chose the classic ”Thellas Cheese” cheeseburger with double burger cheese, silver onions, dill pickles, ketchup, mustard and mayonnaise. A single patty burger cost 115 SEK (12.5 USD), but we ordered a double 120-gram patty burger with for 145 SEK (15.5 USD) and also added 30 SEK (3 USD) for french fries and 15 SEK (1.5 USD) for a chili mayo.

There was a long line of people waiting for their food, and when the burger was served we were greeted by a well-composed and inviting cheeseburger. The first bite was incredibly flavourful and juicy, with a very clear crust on the patties. The beef was well-seasoned with a generous amount of coarsely ground black pepper. And the creamy cheese was delicious and nicely melted over the beef. Unfortunately, the bun was a bit of a disappointment, because despite looking good, it had been toasted for too long on the grill and lacked the fluffy texture we expect from a brioche bun. Their own-pickled cucumber was delicious and added both acidity and crunch, and we would have liked to see more of it so that it was spread over the entire burger. All the sauces did their job without standing out and were also in the right amount, without any one of them overpowering the others. We also liked the generous portion of crispy french fries, and the smoky chilli mayo was tasty – although it could have been a bit spicier.

Thellas undoubtedly serve one of the better burgers we’ve eaten in Gävle, and the service from the guys in the food truck was excellent as well. We definitely recommend keeping an eye on their schedule and visiting them if you’re in the area.
