Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Reviewed 27 July 2023 via mobile

Loved the setting and the traditional costumes all the waitresses were wearing. Best of all though was the traditional food - and the portions really are substantial. Jenny ordered stuffed cabbage rolls with fried potatoes and I had potato cutlets (light and fluffy with a...crisp coating) with a cream and dill sauce - but we’d not reckoned with the creamy beetroot salad and the coleslaw and the 6 slices of black bread with it that came unasked. We did our best but the fried potatoes defeated Jenny…. So tasty though - easy to see how it was the nourishing simple fare that farmers would have needed and could have afforded. Highly recommended - and it’s popular so don’t be surprised if you have to wait a little while for your food, though we were fortunate.More

Very nice and cozy. Rated with 4 stats because menu needs some variety do serve a bigger customer base. We could not find anything to eat from their menu unfortunately.

Good place to go to if youre looking for authenting tastes. Food is very good, portion sizes are huge and prices are reasonable. I reccomend to visit the place! PS! Check opening times before you go, because it's opened daily only during summertime!

Suurepärane teenindus ja maitsvad, kodused toidud ajaloolises hoones! Good Estonian food - big portions with lot of extras. There was wide choice of salads complimenting the dish. Warm local bread and butter. Everything they use is local and fresh. Prices are cheap and the building...is historical! Short trip from Kuressaare and you get something authentically Estonian!More

Not many choices in this part of the island, but this restaurant right beside the church, preserves the local traditional cuisine and serves dishes which are tasty and inexpensive. Not a great wide on offer, but enough to please everybody.

One food should be enough, anyway it will be hard to eat it all. Everything was of course tasteful. Totally worth coming from far away also.

Always, then in Saaremaa, I'm also visit Lümanda Söögimaja. It is just nice, local, simple Saarema food. Service is superb. We were there 25 friends and were so well serviced. My favourite.

We were guided to Lymanda by one of their rival restaurants that was closed that day. The person to suggest we try them said “There is just one thing I have to warn you about – the portions are huge”. Well, we were hungry so...didn’t pay much attention to this. When we arrived it was long past the lunch time but it was till hard to find a free table. Luckily they had a few outside too and as it had got a bit warmer, we could sit in the garden. Due to our late arrival, a lot of the (already short) menu was gone. I guess it was a share between starvation and a panic (that soon there won’t be anything to eat) but we forgot the warning. So we each ordered a dish each. Luckily they were out of starters. I say luckily as when the food started to come we were in shock. The portions were huge indeed. Unfortunately (to us) the food was absolutely amazing too – very basic and simple but sooo tasty. So we tried to eat it all. But failed miserably. In a way it’s a shame that so much goes to waste – they should warn at the till themselves (as half of our party was kids who could never ever eat that much) or they should seriously decrease their portion sizes. Proper homemade food though!More

The portions are huge. With every main course you get some salat as extra and it just a lot of food. But the food is good, nothing fancy, but for sure it is a fair deal if you are hungry and you want to taste...some typical local dishes. During the summer you can sit outside, which is also very nice.More

This place should have 3 stars local-food-wise! Everything is rich, traditional authentically Saaremaa. Fish comes from local fishermen, vegetables are locally grown in the same place by the same people. Place has been there for more than 20 years and has been getting only better.
