The genuine feeling that Kamarina emits isn't imaginary: it's actually one of the first Greek restaurants that opened in Stockholm, and remarkably it has been kept running by the same family this whole time.
For me, Kamarina is a perfect Sunday dinner restaurant. Due to the warm atmosphere along with peaceful Greek music, it sort of takes your mind on vacation and lures you into that welcoming tiredness. They've kept my favorite dish on the menu for ages, namely the "vegetarian plate". It’s fully loaded with various yummy dips and vegetables as well as their delicious potato chips. Make sure you arrive hungry no matter your option though - the portions are HUGE.
Note that Kamarina has two separate dining parts and entrances: the one on the right is bigger and best suited for a major group, whilst the smaller part to the left is where you should go to enjoy an intimate meal eye-to-eye.
