Ensimmäinen kerta täällä mutta ei viimeinen! Heti ovesta sisään astuttaessa meitä oltiin vastassa kuin olisimme tulleet kotiin 🥰! Tätä samaa palvelua jatkui ihan poistumiseen saakka! Palvelu ei ollut teeskentelevää vaan aitoa ja lämmintä, kiitos 😍! Ruoka: otimme menun joka sisälsi 4 ruokaa! Huippu raaka-aineet sekä annosten ulkonäkö että koko olivat loistavat. Menee ihan kehumiseksi mutta ei voi mitään! Otimme myös viinipaketin mukaan annoksiin. Vain 1 viini ei mielestämme sopinut annokseen koska se vei viiniltä luonteen pois, viini tuli vetiseksi. Tämä toki kerrottu myös tarjoilijalle. Ruoat esiteltiin samoin kuin viinit etukäteen ja saimme jokaisen viinin myös maistaa ennen kuin se kaadettiin lopullisesti lasiin! Jos jotain parannettavaa pitäisi antaa niin ravintolassa oli melkoinen hälinä koska se oli täysi ja kaikki puhuivat.. emme antaneet sen kuitenkaan iltaamme häiritä! VAHVA suositus tälle ravintolalle! Tämä ravintola ei petä laadullaan 🥰 Ansaitsi jälkeen 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Niin palvelusta , ruoasta ja viineistä ja huomioinnista 🌹

Good food and great service, not necessarily worth the money but no complaints either. Food didn’t leave a wow in the mouth. Menu changes regularly. Wine package worked nicely with the menu. Cocktails could be a bit more innovative. After dinner they have nice selection of grappas and other spirits.

A beautiful restaurant that we chose for Valentines dinner, but in Finland would be to celebrate Friendship Day. The staff is nice, the sommelier super nice. They offered almost any wine in the menu as carafe. They have a daily 4 course chef’s menu EUR 62 that can be paired with wine + EUR 60. Or the ala carte menu. The menu has 3 options as starter, and 3 options for main. Cheese plate and dessert. We went with the ala carte. Lamb terrine and cheese platter for starter. Yes. I eat cheese on my starter. Main OX my husband said was nice but not amazing. I chose the cod. It was very nicely made, but the difference was the sweet potato flavour and the black lentils. Dessert orange sorbet and mouse. A bit tangy for my taste but looks very nice. I would easily recommend.

The food was a letdown. Been to the restaurant 4-5 times before and unfortunately the food quality curve is declining. The menu was otherwise good but the main was substandard: Fatty lamb neck. So gooey and fatty I haven't found in any pub so far. Piece of an advice, increase the price instead of lowering the quality. Service and atmosphere are still very good.

Great wine list and an interesting chef’s menu which was clearly thought out to pair with the cold winter season. The beetroot soup was a shining star! I felt that the service however was lacking. I would have expected something more cozy and personal given the atmosphere of the restaurant, but it seemed like the place was understaffed and the team was a bit frazzled and disinterested in our table.

An exquisite and relaxing fine dining experience. We went to the restaurant twice within a few days because it was so good. The food was delicious and expertly prepared with great balance between the flavours. The wine pairings that the sommelier found for us were stunning. We plan to come back the next time we're in Helsinki.

This place was a total surprise! The atmosphere is very classic and formal but the food is great! They cook French inspired plates with local ingredients. I highly recommend going for lunch to have try.

4.8/5. Excellent food, good service. A little bit too cramp between tables. The restaurant is full house. Some diners seem local, probably working nearby, having it as a business lunch. We had the 3-course lunch menu. The Gazpacho is great, super delightful to find sugar-salt pickled celery in the dish (for us no big fans of celery). The serving bread has a choice between the normal wheat sourdough and the local rye sourdough. The rye sourdough is a lot better than most rye bread in the region, but I still like the wheat sourdough more. For the main, we had fish and chicken. Both well balanced. I like the pina colada desert with a twist more than the petit four which are 3 interesting chocolates. Overall a satisfying meal.

Arvosanani 4,7. Erittäin huomaavainen palvelu. Korkea ammattitaito ja täydellisyyteen tähtäävä toiminta oli mukana kaiken aikaa. Nautimme neljän annoksen menun (johon lisäsimme juustot väliin omin nokkinemme), ja kaikki oli taiten tehty ja näyttävästi esillepantu. Ainoa kehittämisen paikka olisi pohtia, mitä tehdä ravintolasalin akustiikalle. Aika ajoin yleinen puheensorina kasvoi niin suureksi, että normaalikeskusteluäänellä ei saanut viestiä perille pöytäkumppanille.

Love our 4-course dinner there. The service was very good :)

Great food with great service and wines. I have been in Vinkkeli only for lunch and it has been every time a great experience.

The service was top notch. We were greeted with warm friendliness and that continued throughout the whole evening. We selected the menu and the matched wine package. Food was great and wines matched with food were excellent. Especially the white wine served for the starter was one of the best white wines we have ever tasted. We enjoyed our anniversary dinner. Highly recommeded. You will love the service and food.

Very good. I'd say one of the best in Helsinki, but not quite at the top level. Flavours really delicate but still slightly subtle to my liking. Service top notch!

From entering the restaurant to leaving the sevice was exceptional. Very friendly staff and our waitress explained the dishes when we had some questions. I had the lunch menu, and I chose the beetroot soup, horse meat, and the varity sweets as the dessert. The food was great and I have no complaints. Great place for anyone to visit if they are in Helsinki! I visited in November 2023.

Managed to snag a table for one in this charmingly small, bustling restaurant that's in the Michelin guide. I saw it on a Conde Nast list, so I was shocked I managed to get a table on a Friday night without a reservation (perks of dining solo!) Cannot speak well enough of the staff, everyone was so sweet and pleasant, and recommended some great wines to someone deeply out of their depth 😂 I wanted the full experience so I opted for the 4-course meal, and it did not disappoint! I was able to mix and match between the original 4-course set and the other dishes on the menu, and at 62~ish euro (wine not included) this felt like a steal for an American crushed under the weight of inflation. Cannot recommend the salted herring enough. I knew I wanted to try it while I was in Finland, and it did not disappoint! The artichoke(?) soup that was part of the 4-course meal was spectacular. I love how knowledgeable the staff was on not only all the dishes on the menu, but where they come from and the seasonal changes that the menu follows. For the entree I had the lamb with pumpkin sauce - so delicious. At this point I was too full to continue on so I got the small treats dessert to pick at while I finished my wine.

Excellent food, their 4-dish menu is fabulous and worth the price. The level of service is ok, but they serve some clients much faster than others.

Soup was good, main dish was better and dessert was nothing to mention.

I have been to dinner and lunch. Dinner menu was excellent, 5 stars. However, the lunch set of three courses, although delicious, has portions that are way too small.

Very tasty food with good wine pairing and service 👌

Pretty nice place. Everything was very nice. Lacked little bit of 'wow' but would recommend nevertheless.

Excellent choice. We selected the dinner menu and it was delicious from the beginning to the end, apparently simple dishes but full of nuances and perfectly balanced, and really high quality products. The wine selected by the waiter, following my preferences was also excellent. To the food quality we must add the really nice and profesional attention for the waiter that helped us to pass a really really unforgettable night.

Lovely fine dining experience in Helsinki. A menu changes almost weekly and is always made from the freshest of ingredients. Friendly, professional staff. Will visit there again on our anniversary :)

Been there now three times and it just keeps on getting better and better. Interior is cozy and the food is tasty and prepared with top quality ingredients. Overall the staff is professional and lovely. Special kudos to Eero for taking care of us. This restaurant provides definitely one of the best dining experiences in Helsinki.

Excellent food and amazing service

It was fully booked at the tables when we went for dinner but they still managed to fit us in at the bar area which was fine as we still had plenty of space to eat and also got to chat to the staff as well. We had the dinner set menu which was served promptly but also delicious. At many fine dining kind of restaurants, the food may be of high quality but the wait times can sometimes be rather long. I was glad that this was not the case at all here, with waits averaging out around 15 mins between courses if that. Staff were very helpful and friendly giving us recommendations for others places to visit during our stay in Finland. Would highly recommend.

First meal in Finland and what a phenomenal way to begin. Food magical Drinks, try the Spruce, Shoots, stunning. And Eero was simply sensational as a food and drink guide. Visit, it is so worth it. 👏🏽

Amazing dinner menu with great service from the heart by Pai. The iberico pork main was honestly one of the best pork dishes I've had in my life - and I've dined at my fair share of Michelin star restaurants. Very reasonably priced as well. If you don't drink alcohol, try the Finnish Spruce Shoot sparkling wine!

Wow.... The food, staff, atmosphere and everything else is amazing. I highly recommend it, check it out! Especially thanks to Antti 😉

Eero was a true professional - great customer service skills and knowledge about the food and wine. Surprise menu was well constructed and tasty - kitchen really knows their stuff. Will definitely visit again.. and again.. 👍

Yummmm. Chefs tasting plus wine pairing. And they let me sub out because I don’t eat salmon. they also have an amazing a la Carte menu. *disclaimer - I haven’t seen the bill yet

Food is excellent and there's always something new for everyone's taste. Big recommendation that avoid the place at the summer season. No AC/fans. You don't want to feel Finnish sauna-dinner experience with your fancy dress on. Stuff is one of the best in Finland and they know what they are doing.
