IKEA Restaurant is a lovely spot for a casual bite! 🍽️ The highlight definitely has to be the Swedish meatballs; they come smothered in a rich jam and gravy - so delicious and comforting! The portion sizes are generous, and the prices are incredibly fair.
The atmosphere is family-friendly, and there's plenty of seating, plus free parking, making it super convenient. Just a heads-up, though - the availability of side dishes can be hit or miss, but the sweetness of the desserts makes it worth the trip. Perfect for a quick meal after shopping! 😋
