The restuarant prides itself in sourcing local and organic, so the price point is slightly higher, but the quality of the food totally makes up for it. They also have a great ice cream selection, as well as other dessert. The staff is really nice too. My phone was running low and I forgot my backup battery, and they were nice enough take my phone to charge for me.

I have been eating dinner here couple of times and I have nothing bad to say about it either. A very good restaurant with (in a good way) slightly old-fashioned atmosphere and good service.

We were very cold and wet from a nasty weather day and wanted to try something warm. Also wanted…read moresomething local to Helsinki as well and Yelp said this one would satisfy our taste buds. Not a single tourist in site, everyone speaking Finnish so we knew this was the perfect spot. Had only 30 minutes before lunch ended so we ate quick and snapped as many pictures as I could. Very interesting salads with unique dressings, most them couldn't tell what in the world made them taste so good. Helsinki proved to be awesome and to not copy Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. Finland borders Russia on the East side which might be why their foods are so different and yet so delectable. Would be better to visit when the weather is warmer with some sunshine. For sure would return to this place as it was superb!

Love the unpretentious lunch hidden in the street corners of Helsinki city centre here. You kind of…read morehave to look for a place as it doesnt have street front...just a sign they put outside to say they are open...and you kind of have to brave yourself to step in a small corner inside the streets to actually get to the restaurant. There are all types of clienteles here and you pay right when you arrive, get your plate, grab your food from the buffet line and seat whereever the table is free. Pretty casual and stress free...and the staff there do run like a well-oiled machine. They clear thr empty plates and clean the tables, and refill the food in tje buffet line as much as they can. The buffet line has a section for vegetarian and regular hot meal food. There's also a separate corner to grab your own tea/coffee as you wish, too. For ~€12 and quality all you can eat lunch...this is a very very good deal! I did try everything from the buffet line and they all tasted fresh! I had 2 full plates and a cup of tea..and didn't feel bloated after eating so much afterwards at all. If I had time to come back to Helsinki again, I would definitely want to have lunch here again. I debated goinf back there again my last day in Helsinki but unfortunately didn't have enough time to go back there...else I would be back there again! Give yourself and your friends a nice casual lunch when you are in Helsinki and you will be happy to stopped by for sure!

The interior was nicely decorated, minimalistic and elegant. I'll warn not to arrive hungry because service was slow; very slow hence I removed a star. It was my first dinner in Helsinki after a day of traveling, and I was famished. I ordered the risotto and fish of the day; double entrees due to hunger. The food was tasty. I also ordered the real passion cocktail and didn't like it at all. The bread selection, especially the brown/black bread, was so fresh and soft. I ended the night with the honey dessert that was beautifully plated.

Service was a little slow and she didn't seem sure about what some items were on the menu. At the end managed to get what I wanted ! I went with the bubbly and a glistening looking chocolate croissant. Both were fantastic and the bubbles works well with the chocolate!! I normally would do coffee and they had some great options but was feeling the bubbles. Nice flaky pastry that you can layer through, my favorite kind. Chill atmosphere, lots of people working or Sunday morning coffee folks. Family's out . Mixed bag of people. Nice clean place though and great pastry option. Some savory breakfast type stuff too.
