    One of the best udon noodles that I have ever had. The staff is very pleasant and it was possible to modify my meal a bit and to add some fish on the top. I appreciate this flexibility and willingness to modify the meal from the menu. It doesn't happen often, or not in every restaurant. The meals are served in stylist way and taste amazing. When I was paying, the waitress draw something small on the bill and left a message, wishing me a great week. That was a nice final touch.

    The setting was nice and the service friendly. However the food was too salty for me. The sweet potato fries were okay, but there were only few fries, with lots of kimchis, which was very salty. The coconut soup was super salty. I couldn’t eat it.

    The service here is unmatched. They are so sweet and they truly care for their customers. We had such a sweet waitress who gave great recommendations. She had a great surprise ready for my grandma, whose birthday we were celebrating. The enthusiasm pairs well with their great food. I love their option of smaller meal choices. These options are still quite filling and go well with dessert. The only thing that was questionable was the grilled avocado dessert, but the banana chickpea “pontšik” was great! Will come again and again gladly

    Very nice restaurant with cozy vibes and welcoming interior design. It has a lot of vegetarian / vegan offerings and the food is delicious. We had the King Trump Mushroom Taco and Fried Udon Noodles which we can warmly recommend. There are also kids options, diverse selection of cocktail / mocktails and drinks. Very friendly and great service! Also, one of the waitresses looks like Katniss Everdeen.

    Friendly staff, the portions were a little bit small, you must order extra side dishes (potatoes, broccoli.. etc), *They don't provide Coca-Cola.

    This was an unexpected gem in Talinn, when late in the evening we were roaming to find something to forage. Not only they had perfect food options for food, but they also had excellent alternatives for cocktails. The staff was really friendly, and the atmosphere and decor was top notch.

    This was a new restaurant for us in Tallinn. Pork ribs was very nice indeed. Normally dont like cauliflowers but the cauliflower wings were very tasty here and our child loved Ülos cucumbers. Our waitress was also very kind.

    My first visit - it was good experience and mostly up to rave - 1 star less from me, is the room to approve, like tidiness of surroundings after clients left from tables, not very much attention was paid for that. Food though - interesting combinations and delicious- I had taco and pork belly- both tasty 😋 will go back for more. Small edit- winelist by glass should be a bit longer, there is enough choices to have in different price range - not to push to order the bottle - our case, 3 ppl who all have different preferences, very limited choices to pick something by glass #winelover talk 😅 so I personally just had 1 instead of 3 glass 🤷🏻‍♀️

    We enjoyed our dinner at Ülo a lot. Our waitress Eva was great (she had her last working day that evening). We particularly enjoyed the "cauliflower wings" and our main dishes (Udo nudles, chicken skewers with grilled potatoes as a side). Most of the cocktails are named after (former) employees - but you'll recognise which ones they mean.

    Managed to score a table for 7 in very short notice on an busy Saturday! Staff was lovely and the food really had some flavours. This is vegeterian based restaurant but it does have some meat options available too so I would say that they have a great variety. They have some interesting cocktails available as well. Would I go again? Probably not. Would I recommend it to a friend? Definitely!! PS: Try the cauliflower wings!

    Lovely bar and restaurant. We shared 2 small plates, 1 large and 1 dessert and that was plenty for 2 people. The apple pudding with truffle icecream was one of the best desserts I have ever had.

    The food was very tasty and both the vegan and the carnivore found nice options to eat. The taco portion in the picture is from the "smaller options" list but it really was very small. So be prepared to really taste the food, not only stuff yourself...

    Drawn in by the warm and eclectic decor and had a fantastic evening. The cocktail menu is well curated and the wine list suits all comers. The food was flavourful and well portioned. Will definitely be back before my holiday ends.

    An atmospheric restaurant with good service. Vegetarian food options very available, but meat eaters were not forgotten. Traditional dishes with a new twist and beautifully plated. The appetizers were really tasty for everyone at the table. The noodles and orzoto of the main course lacked a bit of flavor. The steak was really successful. The staff really knew their job, and there was no unnecessary waiting for anything. It's worth going here, remember to reserve a table!

    The best food in Tallinn! Really enjoyed the raspberry sourdough and oven baked chicken breast. Also, the kids loved the kiddie portions. Highly recommend if you are in town.

    Vegan power! They have like 4 starters and 4 different mains of vegan option. Good service and friendly staff. Word Ülo means “joy, happiness” and that’s what we feel now. Also they have a nice selection of different beers. We had Elvis Juice and Timeless Pils.

    At first visit (Saturday 07.05.22) I came in just like bywalker & adhoc client. I got amazed of level of service and atmosphere the serving team had created at Restaurant. I have travelled, lived and visited at places within highest level of Hospitality business therefor can recognise and really appreciate these rare moments of experiences. Food & drinks were also on high level. Extra plus for even if place is categorized as vegan restaurant you have other choises on menu. Second visit (21.05.22) had other team taking care of me. Still at good level but atmosphere did not have that "something special" witch I specifically came to re-experience. Food & drinks were at same high level thou. Recommendet for food & drinks and maybe you get lucky with service team as well....

    Fantastic experience at Ulo, one of the best vegan restaurants in Tallinn. Slightly on the pricier side of things for the portion sizes... BUT the staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The place is cosy, the food delicious and their bread with olive oil and raspberry vinegar is to die for. I highly recommend the udon noodles and kimchi fries 😇🍜

    Good food but quite expensive. Good service too but not perfect: we had to wait quite long for the bills. I was disappointed with the amount of coriander in the dishes: too little and not so fresh.

  • 5/5 Kari 1 year ago on Google
    Wonderful flavors, wonderfully served i.e. friendly staff.

  • 5/5 Abhirup B. 2 years ago on Google
    The place is quite centrally located near the balti jaam market. Its concept of being a vegan place that serves a few meat dishes is amazing. The food was really great and cocktails were very nice. The sweet potato fries were amazing and crispy. I had the noodles which were really tasty and the sauce in it was delicious. The lady waiting on us was really friendly.

    I went to restaurant Ülo in Balti jaam today and I can't praise them enough 🙂 Delicious food, tasty cocktails, warm and friendly service. Thank you for showing my mum and I a great time 🙏

  • 5/5 Janne K. 2 years ago on Google
    Awesome place especially for people who don't eat meat or are vegeterians. Even if you're FULL HD Barbarian on a meat only diet, you might want to check their menu. Price-quality ratio is good and they got good wines and local craft beer too. The venue might seem a bit cold, but I enjoyed the dinner. Be sure to book in advance!

  • 5/5 Fum F. 11 months ago on Google
    Very friendly staff! They have daily offers too. Food was done nicely and with unique details to everything like deep fried tofu, rosmarin and lemon in the water glass. Great experience and a place to wait out the rain

    On a sunny day around Telliskivi, You may seek for a gem of the city. A place to find something for bite, Some umami and cosy sunny site. I found one with plenty of flavour, With compelling foods one will savour. From spiritual Asia to south of America, A fusion of tastes creates delica. Yet, even as the food is heavenly, I must admit something else as evenly. Their people, they are the true value, So kind and always smiling with you. By the end you have enjoyed, The evening of being spoiled. By the incredible tastes And the service of greats. With memories to take with you, You will be back. it's a dream come true

  • 1/5 Daria A. 1 year ago on Google
    I ordered a matcha latte and it was barely warm, almost cold. I didn't drink. The prawns tasted disgusting because of the sweet kataifi. The pineapples were black. The waitress didn't apologize or offer anything.

  • 5/5 Annette D. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely delicious! Really recommend if you’re in a group of vegans and non-vegans. Great flavours and friendly service. We didn’t have to wait long for the food, the dishes were made with good quality ingredients and lovely presentation. The straws are made of dry pasta, a nice touch and good to know they are environmentally friendly as well!

  • 5/5 Blanca M. 1 year ago on Google
    Very nice place, there are vegan and non vegan option, I really liked the beef taco. The service was also very nice.

  • 5/5 Evelien W. 1 year ago on Google
    Very good restaurant. We came here unexpected because the restaurant we intended to go to was closed. It was an unexpected, but great surprise and a delight. We were here on our wedding anniversary. The staff was really friendly and personal. Even wrote a cute message on the receipt to congratulate us one more time. The crunchy sweet potato (vegan) was exceptionally good, and also the noodles (vegan) were amazingly tasty and good. I almost never order vegan because im scared it won't be tasty. This was exceptionally tasty! Very pleasantly surprised by these dishes. Also had the steak, which was great. Would very recommend this place. They have a small menu, but the dishes are great.

    We had a large group for a company lunch and the experience was great. The food, decor, service, atmosphere, etc., were all very nice. I would highly recommend Ülo to everyone, and ask for Astrid N., she was amazing and made the experience even better! Thank you!
