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.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Had a lovely meal here. It was the first time we felt welcomed into a restaurant in Helsinki. The staff were friendly and it was enjoyable having a chat with them and taking their recommendations for food and wine. The food was also tasty and...the price not as high as others in the area.More

Maybe the best pasta I have ever had. And I have had a lot of it. Reasonable prices. Friendly service. I defenitely recommend Toscanini!

Very nice basic Italian food. True Italian flavors, good wine by the glass and friendly service. Can recommend the octopus and ravioli which both are excellent, and colleagues also recommend the risotto.

Started with Negroni. They where able to serve half or a small portion of most items. I had octopus which was awesomely tender and accompanied by lovely vegetable and some optional sauce on the side. I paired with a goat cheese salad and they offered...to sample some white wine, of which I picked a Chardonnay. Attentive staff and a great ambiance. Will definitely visit again.More

The service was haphazard and hurried. Some of the dishes were really tasty but others just bad. I’d say that risotto always seems to be a test, and Toscanini failed big time. Risotto was extremely overcooked, ridiculously so.

Hard to pick from the menu card. Everything looked inviting. Ended up on the slow cooked lamb. Very good choice indeed. It was so tender that the knife was not needed.

Disappointing. 5 years ago the food was great. I had high expectations again and went with friends. All of us were disappointed. Food was overly salty and the gnochi oddly spiced and looked like canned dog food. The dessert, wine and service was good, but...not enough to save the dinner. Won’t be coming again…More

The service and food were impeccable at this cozy Italian spot in downtown Helsinki. Walking distance to many hotels and great shops. Our server Klaus K was amazing. I highly recommend it!

This was a good restaurant.. unfortunately, not any more. The food we ate (especially chiken) and the drinks we had (e.g., no tomate juice for bloody mary) were average. Not recommended and won’t go back. We complained about the food - got -30% from chiken.....but whole disk was wasted (nothing to eat).More
