The Norwegian

We are a small crew of people operating a restaurant and live music venue in the North End of Rockford, IL.  We serve brunch with a Nordic twist, and we create a new dinner menu every week.  We try to be inclusive in our practices, conscious in our consumption, and active in our community, We hope you'll visit.  Skål!
