Celebrated table

Dorsia

Since 2012, Dorsia in Gothenburg has transported guests into a belle époque world of velvet, crystal and serious tasting menus. Recognised by White Guide 2026.

The story

Crafted with passion, served with love

A Room That Arrives Before the Food

Step through the door on Trädgårdsgatan and the city disappears. Heavy velvet curtains, muted tones, magnificent crystal chandeliers and beautiful oil paintings define the atmosphere at Dorsia — a setting White Guide describes as a French version of Alice in Wonderland. It is an interior with genuine conviction, and it has looked this way since the hotel and restaurant opened in 2012.

Tasting Menus at the Centre

In 2019, Dorsia added a dedicated restaurant section built around the long table experience. Two tasting menus anchor the evening: menu grande, an eighteen-course progression, and menu luxe, a more condensed ten-course format. Both reflect an ambition that White Guide has recognised with a "Very Fine Level" distinction in 2026 — serious enough to warrant a cellar stocked with 25,000 bottles and a drinks list that runs to 68 pages. If a curated wine package is not quite right, there is almost certainly something in that list that is.

Beyond the Tasting Room

The broader à la carte menu moves between elegant and rustic, with appetisers and small bites alongside more substantial plates. Breakfast is served daily, drawing on local and exotic produce alongside freshly baked bread and pastries from the in-house bakery. Afternoon tea — served in the classic London manner, and available as takeaway — rounds out a day that can begin and end at Dorsia without any sense of repetition.

The hotel itself offers rooms across several categories, private dining spaces, and facilities for conferences and larger gatherings. Children under eight and prams are not accommodated, a detail that quietly signals the kind of calm the house is designed to protect.

History

On the record

2026
White Guide — Very fine level

A step inside from Trädgårdsgatan and you fall into a French version of Alice in Wonderland. Heavy velvet curtains, muted tones, beautiful oil paintings and magnificent crystal chandeliers – Dorsia has, since its founding in 2012, been set in a belle époque atmosphere. In 2019 a new restaurant section opened, dedicated to tasting menus and long seating – a prestigious venture that has now had its premiere. Choose between “menu grande” and “menu luxe” with 18 and ten courses respectively. If none of the wine packages suit your taste, there is a 68‑page drink list – and a cellar with 25,000 bottles.
