Perfect place to have afternoon tea in Helsinki! Very cozy restaurant.  Staff and service is excellent! Most of the food was really good (exept sandwich with cucumber,  that one is just really sad one 🙈 ). All in all, it's a place i definitely recommended!

Excellent service! We arrived hungry  last minute and kitchen was closed. Our server quickly checked with the kitchen crew if they could take our order and luckily they did. We ordered the reindeer steak and traditional fish dish and a salad to share and raspberry tiramisu. The reindeer steak melted in the mouth and the fishes were delicious. Our servers were polite and friendly. Definitely we want you to be back again.

Great location. High price point. Easy service, but not on the same level as price. Good privacy in private cabinet, but decoration very modest. Portion size really modest. Expected more in place like this

Quite iconic restaurant in impressive facilities at the end of the Esplanade in downtown Helsinki.

The interior is really impressive and the restaurant tries to serve a bit of upper class clientele.

The service was really caring and kind but not knowledgable about foods and wines. The seatings were great in booth format. Definitely adds to a nice athmosphere.

Being in Finland we had to try the reindeer, which was well-prepared. Taste was not my thing and a bit of a funny combo of berries, sauce and meat but OK.
