Pao Bar & BBQ

The Spis take

An ambitious Grünerløkka spot pitching Thai flavours through a barbecue and small-plates lens, with local seasonal produce, a full vegan menu and near-total gluten-free options. At its best it delivers bold, smoky, genuinely enjoyable dishes; the caveats are Oslo-steep pricing and a few diners feeling the food strays from the Thai food they expected. Go with an open mind and a healthy budget.
