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.

Went for early dinner in there. Had a semi tight timetable, but they were able to serve quickly as there was not that much people. Service was ok, but I heard the staff making offensive jokes to me. Food was great, but a bit expensive. But when you consider that they give some starter bread for free and water (even mineral) is included, it is worth it.

The grilled baby gem lettuce was excellent but main course was a huge disappointment. The steak that was ordered as medium was seriously overcooked and returned to the kitchen. The new steak was raw and unseasoned. Not impressed by the quality of this restaurant that says they are specialists with steaks.

Restaurant half empty (got lucky around 5pm during weekday & Summer time). No special korona restrictions or tables taken out of use to make more space for customers. This was a bit odd but since there weren’t that many people to begin with, we went in anyway. Took a burger. Yes, it was medium-made and tasted good but very soggy to eat. Very expensive wine (by glass), but I guess it always feels like that in Finland if you’ve just been to Tallinn.. Friendly staff but felt like something atmosphere-wise was missing. Or maybe it was the pricing vs quality of food and other stuff combined? Could visit again though.

In Finland for a few days, I wanted to eat local. My hotel had nothing special, and I had been advised to have a look at the old locomotive stable on the ground floor of Torni. The menu included blinis, it's the season, let's go for blinis. It was early dinner by my standards, not in Finland. We ordered a plate of two, which is meant to come with all sides so we did not have to chose from smoked reindeer salad, mushroom salad, etc. When the plate arrived, fish roe was missing; fair to report that the waitress immediately brought them. The blinis were let's say ordinary. I did not realise why until I asked for an extra blini (5€): it was cold inside. Helsinki Times published an article on 24 January, "Blini season is on", explaining that "the blini culture can be summarised in three simple words: tradition, taste and versatility". And they explain: "Taste, because the blinis are made with pure ingredients with no extra additives. Served immediately after frying, they are irresistible while still fresh, straight from the pan." Straight from the pan? Surely not. I have already had blinis brought to my table still in the hot pan. Or from the deep-freezer? I don't know, but ours had not been "fresh, straight from the pan". This review is based on my own experience and is my genuine opinion of the blinis I had in this restaurant, as we did not experience any other food.

Ok. After finding 50cm long hair from my appetizer (Skagen with rye bread) i was somewhat disgusted, and would absolutely have left to get some fruit from nearby market, if my wife wouldn't have started her dining already. In hindsight, not leaving was a mistake. Replacement portion tasted good, and i especially liked fried (i think) capers in it. After eating roughly 90% of it, i found another hair, this only few centimeters long. Didn't complain, swiped it to side of the table. Told my wife, jokingly, "i bet that medium stake that i ordered will be well done". Well, almost - on scale of 1 to 5, 1 being raw and 5 being grey inside, my steak was roughly 4.5. One small bite was juicy, so i guess i got some idea what it should have tasted like. Ate all of it, as it was still edible - have fried worse steaks myself, even recently, so i was not going to return it. Still, i was somewhat embarrassed for the chef who made it (maybe he/she should start using steak thermometer, no fault in that.) Dessert was decent, even good. Service was good and on time. Appetizer was free, but to be honest, if i could rewind time, i would pass even if all of it was free.

This restaurant is located on the ground floor at Solo Sokos Hotel Torni. The restaurant is a 145-year-old locomotive stable with a unique atmosphere. We went here to have a late lunch or an early dinner because of the COVID restrictions. The alcohol service ended at 17:00 and the restaurant closed at 18:00. This is one of the few restaurants during the pandemic where we could clearly notice that the distance between the tables had been increased significantly. I ordered a grilled steak and my partner had blinis. Both were good. However, the best part was the service. It was so friendly and attentive.

This place is the hotel restaurant for Sokos Hotel Torni. It also serves breakfast for the guests of the neighboring Sokos Hotel Villa where we stayed. This was our 3rd breakfast here. The two other times we stayed at the Torni Hotel. It has been very crowded and not been our favorite hotel breakfast. Luckily this time, the breakfast was pleasantly calm because of the pandemic. It helped a lot because the buffet is not the clearest to perceive. Also, the buffet is placed in a little bit of cramped space. The food selection was the usual Sokos Hotel. So it was quite extensive.

The place was very cozy and the food was average. But the service was very slow and they forgot my dessert (10min after my friend had eaten hers it finally arrived tho). All though the staff were mostly very friendly! Still wouldn’t probably pay this much for this experience.

Extremely slow service, yet polite. Food mediocre; way too salty lax and tasteless risotto. Salad good, waiting for chocolate cake and still waiting… I don’t think I will return any time soon. Got the S bonus though 😎.

Make a reservation after 6pm if you don"t like busy feeling and families with kids and baby's. Hinta-laatu -suhde ei ihan kohtaa. Ei voi suositella alkuillasta varsinkaan turistisesonkina. Mutta henkilökunta on ystävällistä ja ammattitaitoista, sijainti hyvä ja miljöö miellyttävä.

Comfortable restaurant, interesting interior, good service and excellent food! We enjoyed good beef and fine red wine while staying one night at the superb Torni hotel.

We had a lunch for 10 persons - including two toddlers. Menus and drinks were given to the restaurant in advance, So the service went mostly very well. Only mistake was that when the main courses were brought, it took a while before the wines were poured although the bottles were quite close at hand. Also our pre-told extra wishes of flower vases and birthday-party candle in the dessert were arranged as asked. Though our lunch took quite some time, the toddlers endured pretty well - mainly with their own things and partly with the materiel brought by the personnel and olso because of some extra chocolate candies given by our waiter. The courses were quite good but a little bit on the pricey side. A pleasant surprise was the champagne price offered with S-card holders.

Had a dinner in connection with a business trip - the 3 course dinner was OK, Reindeer was very good but starter and dessert could be improved.

We had to wait for the main course 1h30min. They said it was because of Alihankinta mess, but the restaurant was not even full.
