The story
Trattoria la Strega is an Italian restaurant at Aschebergsgatan 23B in Göteborg, Michelin Recommended in 2026. The food leans north, toward the trattorias of Piemonte, Lombardia and Triveneto.
Nina Rydqvist cooks here after years that took her from Milan to family in Sicily and work in Lombardy. Her approach is zero-waste: the whole animal gets used, and seasonal vegetables carry real weight. The menu changes daily and is never posted, so the restaurant points guests to its Instagram page for a look at what is being served. Vegetarian and vegan plates are part of the offer.
Andrea Consonni brought his love of wine from Milan to Gothenburg. The list sticks to biodynamic and natural bottles, which suits the kitchen's focus on local producers and low-intervention farming. Wine pairing is available for those who would rather leave the choosing to him.
The White Guide gave la Strega its Very fine level in 2026, noting that the restaurant sits a bit hidden down the hill toward Chalmers. No tourists wander past, yet the dining room is almost always full, mostly with regulars who keep returning.

History
A bewilderingly large majority of Gothenburgers have never even heard of the little Italian restaurant on Aschebergsgatan. It lies a bit hidden down the hill toward Chalmers, and no hungry tourists wander by. Yet the dining room is almost always full. Those who know, know. And those who know keep coming back, again and again.
