Viewers generally find 'The Restaurant' to be a captivating family saga set in post-war Sweden, comparing it favorably to 'Downton Abbey' with more twists and a rich historical backdrop. The series excels in character development and the portrayal of societal changes through the lens of a family-owned restaurant. While most appreciate the depth and the period atmosphere, some find the Swedish language and subtitles challenging, and a few felt the fourth season didn't live up to the earlier ones.

👍 Rich character development and historical depth.
