The story
Celeste is driven by a small, dedicated team with a clear goal: to serve the very best they can. Operative chef, owner, and creator Rakel Wennemo leads the restaurant alongside her sister establishment Étoile. In the kitchen, head chef Jonas Lagerström brings precision and creativity to every plate. His talent has been recognised beyond the restaurant – he won the Swedish cooking competition “Kockarnas kamp” twice, a feat that speaks to his skill under pressure.
The heart of Celeste lies in its tasting menus. Guests can choose between a five-course or a seven-course journey through modern cuisine, each dish built on careful technique and seasonal ingredients. The restaurant also offers a cocktail bar with snacks, making it a place for both full evenings and lighter visits. For those in the area, a lunch service is available, and Celeste provides catering and private booking options for special occasions.
In 2024, Celeste was awarded its first Michelin star, a nod to the high quality of cooking that defines the restaurant. The atmosphere is unpretentious yet polished – a space where the team’s youthful energy meets serious culinary ambition. Whether you are in the main dining room or the bar, the focus remains on the food and the experience.
Celeste is located on Torkel Knutssonsgatan in Stockholm, open Wednesday through Saturday from 17:00.
