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.

We ate different meals, during a week. Lappland food with special tastings, you can also have vegetarian variations. The food is very well presented and it looks great.

Creamy mushroom soup, elk with red wine sauce, and cranberry icecream were all amazing. 50 euros for all of this along with a glass of wine was totally worth it.

Food was average at best. Bouillabaisse lacked all flavor that it should have. Pork ribs were dry and the sauce it was served with was also tasteless. Steak ordered medium was fully cooked. Also the food was overpriced.

By the river Teno and nicely decorated. Reindeer sushi was good and so was the warm fish portion. Instead, Deatnu salad with fish was very lightweight, not what is expected if you take a salad for main course. The waitress told the cod fish would...be grilled, it was not. Served together with just green leaves, grated carrots and grated beetroots somewhat poor "tourist" portion.More

Very nice service, a peaceful athmosphere and very kind and fast service. The view for the river Teno was also nice. And the best of all: the reindeer was better we have ever eaten ( and we have had that more than 50 times)

I ordered a sauteed reinder and it was ok, but for the price I was excpeting something more. My spouse ordered salmon and it was under cooked and cold. When we told the waiter this she just said that it's supposed to be that way,...when we know that thats not the case. All in all, I think the place is worth checking out, but I would not eat here.More

Summer menu with fish was excellent. One of us had steak, which was also good, but nothing extraordinary. Nice place with a view, very friendly staff.

This restaurant serves local food with a high quality, nearing fine dining standards. Quite an achievement knowing they are located at 70° of latitude north, far from most facilities that everyone is used to! I will definitely eat there again.
