Absolutely fantastic! The food was amazing (specially the rain deer blood pudding) but the best is the service.

Carlotta is such an amazing Somm, sensible and eager to please. The wine list is a dream and I was so impressed by the opportunity to taste dream wines by the glass (like Rousseau Clos de la Roche).

Totally recommended!

The ambiance, service, and food at Demo were all top notch! What a wonderful confluence of flavors in the seven-plus course dinner tasting. We will be recommending Demo to friends and will visit again next time we’re in Helsinki!

The service is wonderfull. Of course food is too but the best part is the pairing of food and wine.  Plates are beautiful and so is the harmony in everything in the restaurant.

- foie gras macaron wasn’t for me but had beautiful display
- the crunchy snack chip at the beginning was unique and tasted good
- excellent mussel dish; had a smokiness taste that was very good
- the bread was cute and small; very sugary tasting and hot
- excellent halibut that is fresh; the lemon and leaves had a very strong counter to it, which is excellent for me but may not be for
- king crab tail was delicious; never tried anything like it and the sauce was perfect
- the reindeer heart was different; good flavors but definitely gamey
- sorbet palette cleanser was refreshing
- final dessert was good with the hazelnut crisp; the bottom part was a bit soggy with the syrup but the ice cream and gold leaves were a very nice touch

Favorites:
- mussels were unlikely any elsewhere with the flavors
- good pace of food coming out; didn’t seem to long or too short
- second set of bread was delicious and sugary

Least favorite:
- one of the waiters was coughing quite a bit; didn’t look extremely ill but felt nervous since he’d cough into his hand and wipe it on his jacket - he didn't wash his hands either unfortunately
- the reindeer heart was unique but too gamey for me

Great service by server. Thank you!

Everything was nice, and the price was fair for the culinary art and service presented by the restaurant. Specially, the dish with fried fish and the dessert with cake and ice cream were really great. They also took my food allergy into consideration and modified the dishes accordingly.
