We booked the restaurant due to a recommendation. The menu consisted of three options in different courses (starters, middle, main, dessert). Why 4 stars: the food is good/very good, not superspecial though. For my taste I struggled to find a option I like, there weren't any small appetizers (like bread etc.). We enjoyed the atmosphere though and would come back again.

Wasn't aware that it was on the Michelin guide so came here without much expectations, just simply a place with good Google reviews and near me. Wow it is weird but the bread with whipped brown butter is amazing. Had the 4-course meal which was good as well. But I kinda wished the appetizers were not cold (not expecting piping hot but cold dishes in a cold weather is just not the best). Had pork for my main dish and it was surprisingly tender. Really good. Love the dessert as well.

We found the restaurant through the Word of Mouth service's 2in1 discount, which enticed us to try their three-course menu with wine pairing. Overall, the experience was good, though there were some areas for improvement.

Food 3/5
The restaurant's three-course menu offered European cuisine that was tasty but didn't evoke strong emotions or surprises. The dishes were well-prepared but leaned towards the conventional rather than bold flavor combinations. However, the starter bread stood out and deserves special praise for its deliciousness. The wine pairing with the main course worked well, enhancing the flavors of the dish, but overall, the menu didn't leave a lasting impression.

Service 3/5
The service was professional but reserved in the typical Finnish style. The staff handled everything efficiently and on time, but there was a lack of engagement, and the staff didn't add much value to the experience with recommendations or enthusiasm. The service was adequate but lacked the personal touch that could have elevated the atmosphere.

Ambience 4/5
The restaurant is beautifully located by the sea, creating an inviting first impression. The interiors are cozy, barn-like, and stylishly decorated, providing a warm and open atmosphere. The architecture and decor make it an excellent spot for a relaxed and calm dinner, but when the restaurant is full, the acoustics can make it noisy, which detracts from the overall experience. Still, it offers a pleasant environment, especially during quieter times.

Accessibility 4/5
The restaurant is mostly well accessible, making it a good option for guests with mobility issues. The entrance is accessible, and the restroom is conveniently located near the main door. Most of the dining area is easy to navigate with a wheelchair. The only notable challenge is the lighting, which may be difficult for visually impaired guests, as it's dim in some areas, making it harder to move around or read the menu without additional lighting.

In conclusion, the restaurant offers a decent dining experience, though the food and service are somewhat average. The beautiful location and good accessibility enhance the appeal, especially for those who appreciate a seaside atmosphere and easy navigation.

Great food and amazing hospitality. Recommend to book ahead of time or walk-in early. I had the set menu for dinner, which was delicious with wine pairing.

Hard to give a Michelin star restaurant a less than perfect review. But they do lose a bit for me because of a situation.

The other members of my party wanted the "surprise" five course menu. I can't do such things without informing the chef of my allergies which are alarming and cause unnecessary anxiety. I chose from the a la carte menu.

This was not allowed. I'm guessing it's because they don't want anyone freeloading. Fine. There was so much discussion about it that my friends gave up their choice and we all went for a la carte. And I wound up having to give the list of my allergies anyway.

It was disagreeable.

On the good side, the Ajo Blanco was amazing. I've been meaning to try to make it myself. Now I know what it's supposed to taste like.

The whitefish was perfectly done. I wanted to compare to Ontario whitefish, which is my favourite. Finnish whitefish is a different species but the same genus. Would definitely order again.
