"We entered Egon and had to wait in a queue for about 20-30 minutes, and when we eventually got in, we found there was a lot of empty seats free and so we were unsure why we had to wait in the queue for that long. We ordered our food on the app - I was able to order but my friend couldn't and so ordered at the bar instead (before me). She received her food first, and they seemed to have forgotten my starter. After we brought it up, it arrived quickly but was warm and could've been hotter. The main course came soon after that, but no staff member told me that I could help myself to the buffet until I asked. We also weren't asked how our food was until pretty late in the meal.
With that being said, I believe the staff were under a lot of pressure as aside from that, they were really friendly and smiley. The food was really, really tasty - the fish soup was a highlight and the pizza buffet was a tasty cheap option giving one meat option, one vegetarian option and then pesto pasta and salad (which could have been a bit fresher but given the price I paid - it's fine). My friend believed her steak was cooked to perfection, and the crispy chicken tacos were super tasty.
The light above the table wasn't on, so it was quite dark despite the candles on the table - it's a matter of personal opinion whether you like it that dark and cozy but prefer a brighter atmosphere. It was relatively quiet and I felt tucked away and private even though it was a busy night (though not as busiest).
Given the taste of the food and the cocktail I had, I can see why it's a popular choice in Norway and I think people should give it a try regardless."

"The particular thing I'm this restaurant is that you order by yourself at the counter after pickin up the menu and sit wherever you want. No one introduce you at the place. After that it works as an usual restaurant! I've got a nice Caesar salad!"

If Peppes was the Pizza Hut, Egon would be the Outback of Tromsø. That kind of restaurant with a very eclectic menu that goes from hamburger to grilled, with pasta options and some Mexican dishes?. The good thing is when even with a crazy menu the dishes come out delicious and our experience at Egon was good!.
