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.

The interior is cool and inviting and it sets the scene for a great experience. The waiting staff were excellent and added to the fun of the evening with great service and helpful hints. The bread tray that arrives with a variety of different butters and spreads in simply delicious. Try to resist agreeing to a top up as it will fill you up too quickly. I had the soup which was light and creamy with a tender deep fried crayfish in it. The aioli was beautifully sweet and full of flavour. I then had the reindeer which simply fell off the bone and was ably supported by beautiful beetroot and polenta. I didn’t have a dessert as I was just nicely full and satisfied. This is a fab place for great food and a lovely lunch or dinner out in a refined setting, strongly recommend.

A superb fine dining experience ! Last night my wife and I enjoyed a wonderful meal , wonderful wine pairing and wonderful attentive and professional service at Ragu restaurant. We had preordered the Vegan 5 course tasting menu and decided to opt also for the wine pairing to accompany our meal. It was a delightful experience from start to finish and we would definitely recommend Ragu to our friends and to those looking for fine dining Vegan cuisine in Helsinki. The restaurant is easy to find and is a well established and well known eatery by many. We booked a 5pm early table and were impressed to see the restaurant fill up very quickly, creating a lovely atmosphere. The service was superb and very attentive and knowledgeable about the dishes and wines being served this allowed us to fully relax and just enjoy a great evening out and savor the food, drink and atmosphere all the more. The dishes were well thought out and presented. The soup and the main course were particularly nice and ticked all our boxes for flavor and appearance. The wine pairing was an excellent choice too. The dessert wine and the dessert dish itself were on a next level and we could have easily indulged in much more of them both. Needless to say at the end of 5 courses and 5 different wines plus a glass of bubbly to begin with we left Ragu after two and half hours a lot fuller and a lot merrier than when we had arrived. It is extremely good value for money and there were several long tables with family get togethers or work do's being hosted there. We are now looking forward to our next visit in the Spring. A big thank you to all the staff in Ragu both front of house and the back of house chef's for making the evening so wonderful and enjoyable.

the food was exceptional from the breads to the dessert as part of a three course surprise menu. The restaurant s decor was relaxed and well appointed. The service im afraid was poor not very attentive, slow and the wine portions for the wine pairing were small

Food was superior but overall 4,5h hours service for 5 course suprise menu is a failure... Group had plans afterwards the dinner but we had to cancel it for the lazy course service. Next time book 4pm table :)

Hmmm... slow dining with mayonnaise it's not what an Italian resotorant would cherish. It is unfortunate that while presenting the main dish the waiter doesn't recognize a difference between artichoke and broccoli, this is unacceptable. Some food was good but the presentation was averaged with way too much mayonnaise. Atmosphere was nice, obviously very popular place,no singe table free. The star of the evening was a Rainoldi vino Inferno reserva. Oveall, there are much better restaurants in Helsinki, better service and way better food.

From a foodie point of view, a five-star rating is the only choice. The food is excellent and the wine pairing is very well chosen. I find it necessary to subtract a star, however, because of the fact that the unsuspecting visitor is coerced into taking a whole menu of at least three and up to five courses. You cannot get à la carte here. Add to that the exorbitant prices for the wines, so that a visit here will set you back for a minimum of 100€ per person. Another star is lost because in spite of the already stellar pricing the staff — I strongly suspect this is not by accident — ends up charging the customer even more for the wines in the final bill than was advertised on the menu. Take my word for it when I say, as a sommelier, those four glasses of wine were good but NOT worth 12€ per glass.

We found this place by simply looking for restaurants nearby to our hotel and boy am I glad we did! We opted for the chefs menu, at recommendation of the staff, as it was the easiest way for them to make the entire meal 100% gluten free for my wife. The food was of an excellent standard, tasted delicious and was reasonably priced The restaurant was very comfortable and had a really good soundtrack! Very enjoyable dinner. The service was a little on the slow side, but that didn’t affect our evening, however if you were short on time that could be an issue. Would highly recommend!

Thoroughly recommend this pearl of a restaurant. It has food as good as any Michelin one star without the price ticket to go with it, in a cosy relaxed atmosphere. Our friend is vegetarian and they fully accommodated her as we all wanted the set menu. Lovely evening - we were the last to leave. We will visit again.

The atmosphere here was excellent, not too ”uptight” considering it’s a fine dining restaurant. Service was very good! We took Ludari surprise menus, mine was vegetarian+fish. Food was great but not the best fine dining experience in Helsinki. The artichoke soup was awesome! The biggest minus was the lack of vegetarian options on a la carte menu, though this varies. Ragu feels very trendy and chic, overall this was a great experience, I recommend this place!

Work related visit, about 50 participants. We enjoyed 6 -course menu, absolutely great from start to finish. Staff was professional. It took some time, 3,5 hours, but it was worth it. Different kind of breads for start the feast, little seafood, meat, soup, meat again, some cheeses and finally dessert. You could also pick a package of drinks, suitable for every course separately. By far the best whole for a long time. Prices were affordable and considering what you get, you get a really good value for money. Highly recommend to visit this restaurant.

The service was the best part of our visit. Waiters were professionals and friendly. The atmosphere was chic but not too fancy. I loved how the tables weren't too close to each other so that we didn't need to have a shouting competition with other guests. We took Ludari surprise menus. The food was good, but not the best I've had in Helsinki. A special shout out to the bread selection that was served for an appetizer. It was delicious.

Came here with colleagues as a business dinner. I have quite a few dietary limitations and I cannot emphasise enough how accommodating and attentive staff were. Their selection of non-alcoholic drinks was larger than I’ve ever experienced elsewhere and the food was to die for! I especial suggest their roasted cauliflower soup, that’s something I won’t forget anytime soon. I felt very welcome by staff, despite being a huge burden with all these food limitations. I absolutely recommend visiting Ragu! Thanks for the wonderful experience guys!

We had a 4-course surprise menu, and it was very well balanced with an amazing, professional use of spices. The service was timed perfectly, allowing us to discuss and socialize. Their imported wines paired nicely with each dish, with every dish having its own wine. The service was also delivered with a great sense of humor. We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch. Thank you, Team Ragu.

This restaurant features a "surprise menu". This is a two-bladed sword: You don't tell the customer what you will serve; he feels like an hostage at the mercy of your culinary vagrancy. And yet, the 5-courses (vegetarian) surprise I had the chance to take was an immersion into a world of pure culinary delight. Pure because the taste of raw ingredients is profoundly respected and conveyed impeccably . And delight, because the choice of taste associations (poached pear, cream with Taleggio cheese, roasted nuts ) matches the excellency of execution. Enough gibberish: try this restaurant before it gets unaffordable distinctions. Then you might not agree. Until you taste the nut-butter (beurre noisette) cream with Fleur de Sel.

We had the 4 course surprise menu with wine pairing. All was good, especially the tuna ceviche and the pea soup, the only thing we missed a bit was the Scandinavian twist. Of course all wines were Italian, but also the food (except for the ceviche)was more international / mediterranean than Scandinavian.
