    Just Super! Extremely neat and clean atmosphere 👌. Self service, enter, pick the tray and the plate and choose food/drinks of your choice by going at dishes on different tables and the person will put selected food into your plate and then you pay at the counter for the selected food items/drinks. Extremely nice arrangements for sitting and eating inside. Highly recommended!

    The food was delicious. A big choice of meat, fish, chicken, side dishes, salads, desserts. Cosy, relaxed atmosphere with plenty of space around you. Not so crowded and noisy. If you seat by the window you can witness an amazing to the park and one medieval age building The personal was kind and quick to respond. Long story short - highly recommended!!! It's right by the bus stop, so you can get there directly from the airport, which by the way is just 3 km away 💵For budget travellers you can eat here even for 10 or 5-7 euro. It's a buffet. Food quality and choice totally worth the price!!!

    First if all - it is great place with nice design. A lot of places, you can eat alone or with friends. Great location, great view from yhe windoww. A lot of dishes, everything fresh and delicious. You can take as much as you will need, for respective price. Soups for 2.95 per 400 g. Piece of bread - 15 cents. Bear and freshes - self service. You can pay card or cash. After finishing you should place your dishes to the bucket by yourself.

    There is alot of variation and it's local foods. Dessert and drinks to choose from also. Ikea style where you get a tray and choose different things and the price is good. Clean, good standard for the cost. Nice location with a view of the sunny side of the city.

    I went to get lunch expecting low prices, but the prices are exorbitant compared to what little you get for it. You could get a whole meal elsewhere for a price of just one item or a whole all-you-can-eat buffet for the price of two small plates of mediocre food. Just a plate of salad is 3.50 even if you put a single small tomato on it. 100g of french fries, 200g of fried potatoes and two little pieces of chicken (all of them the cheapest items you can usually get) came to 12.40, and that was without any salad, drinks or dessert. We hardly had anything on our plates to eat but felt like we had just paid for some fancy restaurant meal which never arrived. In fairness, the food tasted OK, but then chicken and potatoes always do and you’d have to be a truly terrible cook to mess them up. Will never be going again, that’s for sure. I do however recommend Lido restaurants in Latvia, where the selections are better and prices way more reasonable. In Estonia though - if you are hoping for an economical meal, you’ll be robbed in broad daylight.

  • 5/5 Pavel C. 9 months ago on Google
    Super cozy place with big restaurant atmosphere and delicious cuisine. Unbelievable wide variety of food for everybody for so cheap price (in comparison to what we nowadays have in the market), for instance, a very dense lunch for two (each contains starter, two main courses, soup, garnish, dessert and soft drink), costs 35 EUR on average. Amazing. Recommend.

  • 5/5 Matthew A. 9 months ago on Google
    I hadn't been here in over 8 years and fancied some good old home styled cooking for lunch one day. To start, I went for the cream of spinach soup, and it was very good! Perfect density and not bland at all, so I enjoyed that. For my main I had some cabbage and then fried potatoes (the chap kept piling it on!) to go with my smoked roast chicken fillet, which had a lovely smoked crispy skin on the outside and moist, flavoursome chicken underneath! I was rather full after that, but it sorted me out until dinner time! And along with a glass bottle of Coke for €13.95, it was very good value for money! So, if you want some decent buffet grub, then in one of Lidos dotted around the city is what you'll get! Easy 5 stars.

    Great food with affordable prices and many options available to choose. The dining area is huge, clean, and nice ambience with many views to choose also.

  • 5/5 Ελενη �. 4 months ago on Google
    Feels luxurious and is quite cheap actually with budget-friendly options. Also, great quality food. I paid 8,10€ for the plate below: french fries, marinated chicken fillet and garlic sauce. Highly recommend.

    Really cool Buffet with lots of Estonian dishes and the prices are pretty fair.

  • 4/5 John W. 1 year ago on Google
    Inside shopping mall with spacious seat and great variety of food and drink. This restaurant is in self service style in which you can pick food and drink you like at counter. Quality and price of food is good too.

  • 5/5 Journalde T. 1 year ago on Google
    Very nice interior with nice view, there is a cafeteria upstairs as well. The foods are good, I had meatball and it's hot, soft and juicy. Cake is delicious.

    varied food selection + great value for your money + awesome dining ambiance which enhance the dining experience..

  • 3/5 Natalie S. 1 year ago on Google
    The food options today was not thay diverse. There was more dessert than actual food. Also the food itself was cold, which made it lose 1 star. The chocolate cake was a little bland, but otherwise rich in moisture and structure of the bake. Beautiful area and seating. Very cheap prices as well.

  • 2/5 Tony A. 2 years ago on Google
    Not very special for the price (15€ for the meal on the picture). Warm beer (only imported) and cash register lady lacking service mind.

  • 3/5 Sidra H. 2 years ago on Google
    Tallinn/Estonia is becoming more diverse place. If vegan menu in English will be added that will help many foreigners to chose this place for lunch break.

  • 5/5 Haly L. 2 years ago on Google
    A great place to eat cheap, and to work with your laptop too. The variety of menu is always extensive, and the prices for food are really good (not as good for drinks though). I was coming here to work with my laptop: they always have free seatings, there’s no music or noise on the background, and the wi fi is good too (I was using some other store’s open wifi).

  • 2/5 Erkin N. 2 years ago on Google
    The interior is great and also we always come here for a hot drink with a desert. But their "burger" was just very bad. Semi-cooked chicken patty with a bread that was nothing like a burger bun. Definitely not worth 5€. The tuna salad wasn't good either. Other meals were expensive in general. So I'd only recommend for hot drinks and interior.

  • 5/5 Siim P. 2 years ago on Google
    Delicious "home-cooked" meals at an affordable price

  • 5/5 Lars Erik D. 2 years ago on Google
    You get what you can expect. Go around and grab what you want, pay, sit down and eat. Every item we tried tasted well. I had fun using the self service beer-tap. Would easily recommend this over any faat food joint, as its faster and tastier.

  • 5/5 Jiří K. 2 years ago on Google
    Very clean and cozy place. Very cheap and delicious food.

  • 4/5 Jianfeng Z. 2 years ago on Google
    Like a colleague caferteria. quite a collection of dishes to choose, and relatively cheap. I tried the fried potato and ribs. The only thing that is not perfect is potato and rib are both not that warm.

  • 5/5 Max D. 2 years ago on Google
    A great place! The food is really good most of the time, it does happen that it is a bit dry, and it is surprisingly cheap! Additionally the seating area is really good, with places for single people and groups. The staff are all pleasant as well, but you don't really interact with them so it doesn't particular matter.

  • 1/5 Marianna F. 2 years ago on Google
    My family tried to have great time. Unfortunately cauliflower was bad. It had strange sour taste. I thought maybe it should be this way. So after that lovely meal with cauliflower I had bad stomach. It’s hot I get it. But you have so many cooks there. Pay little attention to the food you serve.

  • 5/5 Fabian S. 2 years ago on Google
    I love it, I have been there many times and the food is delicious, there is a lot of variety, it is of quite good quality, friendly service and a comfortable, renovated and cozy place, also that for little money you eat very well. I mean the 2 Lido, the Solaris and the Ulemiste.
