about us
Philosophy
Storgatan 19
To showcase Sweden at its best in the most beautiful landscape is something we truly want to do.
How do we do that? Well, we work with Swedish ingredients all the way through and have a curiosity in what we do.
We cook the food we ourselves want to eat when we go out to eat, we mix cocktails that you can't be bothered to make at home but that everyone wants to try, and we have a range overall that makes you just like we are - curious and damn pumped up.
The Story of Storgatan 19
The dream of a Dalsland pearl
Tommy and Oliver Tveter had a dream of starting a restaurant where they could invite people from all over the country to showcase the finest Sweden has to offer, and something for us Dalsland residents to be proud of.
Tommy reached out to Emil Åreng to ask how to best start up a restaurant.
Emil had some expertise from his own bars and restaurants, but also needed a partner who could show how to cook the most delicious food from the best ingredients and manage a kitchen.
Legendary chef Johan Eriksson joined Emil in Bengtsfors, along with Tommy and Oliver, to create what became known as Storgatan 19 - a Dalsland gem without frills.
Flavors and service should be just as we like it, without having to explain it.

The Team
Restauranteur
Oliver became a restauranteur as quickly as you can say Pepparstek (pepper steak). With experience from the boat industry, he knew how to sell things with a smile, which he has brought with him while running Storgatan 19.
You will often find Oliver behind the bar where he mixes cocktails he loves and the goal of becoming one of Sweden's best bars is not unattainable, neither according to himself nor Emil Åreng, who has become a sort of mentor for Oliver.
Kitchen Chef
Kitchen Chef Jennifer - She who runs the kitchen and ensures that the food on the plate always tastes excellent and looks good. A rock we can't do without.
Himself
The bartender from Bräcke. Known for promoting Swedish spirits and for his bars - including Facit Bar in Umeå that put Swedish flavors on the map. Emil has shaped our concept and continues to contribute with his creativity remotely.
Mentor
