Small family run restaurant. All you can eat buffet. Think of home cooking Finnish style. Lots of meats, potatoes, pickles and herring many ways. A little bit heavy but good. Very reasonable especially for Helsinki.

I often travel to Finland and this is probably the most typical restaurant where I have been so far. There is a good choice of food in a buffet and the first time the owner explained every dish to me. And when he found out I was Italian, he even put a flag on our table and took some good... More

I am glad we found this restaurant as its a place not to miss! The food was very nice traditional, i especially loved the salmon soup. You can eat as much as you like for 18 euros, something not easily found in Helsinki as all other restaurants we checked were very expensive. The owners speak English and they are very... More

5/5, hands down. This place has it all. It is home-cooked, pre-globalization Finnish food - salmon soup, reindeer, bread with rice filling (can't remember what it's called), etc. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. They gave me a thorough overview of each dish in the buffet and even explained which items typically are eaten together. The prices are more... More

We liked this buffet that allowed us to taste several typical dishes. A budget place where to have a first contact with finnish cuisine.

This ranks as one the best restaurants I've been to in recent memory. The food was excellent, home cooked and of a great variety. There was everything from reindeer meat to flounder. The owner (Harry) is an excellent host and told us about the history and inspiration for the restaurant. It has been there for 32 years and it will... More

First time we came across the place three years ago. Since then we always go to this small cosy and homely restaurant with my friends whenever we are in Helsinki. Firstly, here you feel yourself like at home or if you visit your old friends, because the owners are extremely friendly and cordial people. The atmosphere means a lot, when... More
