Great value for the quality and dedication put into each dish. Modern and creative but most importantly, simply delicious. The wines are very carefully selected and the list has quite many gems. Soft drinks are also very well crafted. Friendly service, straightforward and professional. You can feel the team is passionate. Would happily return once they change their menu, every 6 weeks or so. Highly recommended, one of the best restaurants in Helsinki at this price point.

In my opinion this is one of the best places in the city. It is super cozy, with good lighting and good distribution of places to sit. The food and drinks are good, as is the service.
Noquis and fish my favorites. It was necessary to make a reservation to enter.

Absolutely perfect for an evening dinner with a great atmosphere and food. The sauce for the different foods especially surprised us with taste. I would come again... highly recommend this restaurant.

Interesting project in a lovely cozy place. Great synergy between the 4 workers that were having a great time amongst themselves, making service slow at times. In our visit we were 7 clients, and it took us over 2 hours to receive 4 dishes.
That said, I must say is that they were happy to give us a taste of several wines, as the ones we wanted were sold out, before buying a bottle.
Flavours were good, unfortunately, as they can't foresee how many clients will cross the doors, everything is vacuumed sealed  and they unfreeze as clients choose their dishes. Hot dishes were cold except the gnocchi that were very homely and warm.

The hollandaise sauce is a complex warm sauce, and it is in fashion nowadays to do Eggs Benedict or similar with ready made sauces. If the hollandaise would have been home made ( butter and yolks taste with lemon juice at 65°C aprox. ) the brussel sprouts dish would have been superb.
Conclusion: If management assured full tables every night, produce and kitchen processes would be optimized, the experience would be great, as the ideas are there.What came first, the chicken or the egg ?

We visit 100 new restaurants a year, so our analysis is not common to all. We don't write about all. You can see more in our instagram: @mayseky
