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.

Pretends to be the best meat restaurant. Not even close! Beaf Sirloin was pretty ok. But that was all. T-Bone was the cheapest meat available in the market, full of tendon. No choice of sauces, all meats served with the same pretty strange sauce. Service...is absolutely terrible, no interest in customers, staff is busy just chatting with each ohter. No knolidge about the dishes they serve. Drinks arrive after the meal. Stupid music playing, no wonder it was almost empty on Friday night.More

I ate here as part of an organised coach tour. We all loved the starter (great big sharing platters, which were almost as long as our tables and offered lots of traditional bites), and the dessert was tasty. The main course was beef burgers. The...bread, chips and salad were all fine, but we all found that the beef was undercooked.More

It took almost an hour to get the food. There was two tables who came after us and they paid and left before we got our food. My file mignon was the end piece from file and it was really dry. Also my husbands dish...was disapointment!! I wouldn’t recommend this restaurant for anyoneMore

Very good starters, for sharing. Garlic bread, seems to be typical Estonian, very tasty, Estonian cheese sticks with dip (resembles haloumi), taco's, very good!! The main courses are for meat lovers, I had a burger, which was rather coarse but good taste, if you like...burgers. A little coleslaw and good fries. I would have preferred to keep the dinner to the starters and order some more of these.More

We had a party with friends on Friday night. The waitress did not have experience with wines so she had to consult her colleague all the time. But in the end it turned out that their short wine menu ended up just in 2 types...of white wine. This was a disappointing thing. And the choice was Riesling and Chablis. Anyway. Tapas turned out to be regular meat and chicken. Not very tasty. Main course steak- really too much salt. Not very impressive food. Just thinking if they are going out of business as they do not care at all?More

This was a disappointment and not worth your money. Service lacked a lot, and we had to wait a very long time between courses (almost 1 hour)... And when we finally got our maines they were stone cold, and the steak hadd what so ever...no flavour as well as the duck dish.More

We visited the place with a group of colleagues. The waitress found us a table and after we had sat down it turned out that part of the food menu was not available, only a few meat dishes. One of our friends found nothing He...likes to eat, so he ordered a green salad and chees plate. the drinks were served and after more than half-hour waiting we received the food then our waitress disappeared and to get someone's attention we called the restaurant phone and asked to send us the waitress. The green salad was served after we drew attention to it The food was also average. Only the fries were goodMore

Good evening. Visited this establishment. That's horrible. I want to write a lot, but there are no words. Maintenance 3 out of 10. Quality 4 out of 10. And if you decide to eat steak, it's not here at all.

We booked early a large table with group of friends. But it appeared that half of the menu was not available, only a few meat dishes. Many of us found nothing they like to eat. The food was also average. There used to be good...coctails, but nowdays they are average, nothing special. Overall - this is overpriced place. But the service was very good, this guy was very helpful.More

Can’t recommend this place especially for meat lovers. Despite of the name there is a very poor selection of meat dishes in the menu. Ordering a steak doesn’t mean it come with any sides - you should order them separately and there is no great...choice of them. There were no even salad on a plate. The steak itself wasn’t something special, it was almost cold at the moment it was served. Service was good and a waiting time was quite moderate but it was a Monday’s evening so there were no lot of people there. Unfortunately, I have to conclude the rating of this place is highly overpriced just like the prices at the place. At the end of the day there are much more better places to eat in the town.More

First greetings to a girl with perfect London English, knowing her stuff about the local beers :) She described a few IPAs so tastefully that we stayed there for a longer rounds. And the food… it was perfect! Delicious steak with grilled veggies. And a...band playing outside on the street - America, ‘20 and ’30, think „Mafia” videogame soundtrack! Certainly not related to Meat Market but just completed the overall experience to 120%More
