Description: RESTAURANT MURU Muru is located in the heart of Helsinki at the corner of Fredrikinkatu and Lönnrotinkatu. Muru’s idea is to offer simple dishes made from the best and most fresh ingredients available that’s why our menu varies daily. Muru is well known for its relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. Customer satisfaction is one of our top priorities, and we believe that is the secret behind our large and loyal customer base. Owners Samuil Angelov, Henri Alen and Timo Linnamäki are all long-term professionals who founded Muru in 2010. Since then, Muru has established itself amongst the very best restaurants in Finland. In 2012, Muru was chosen as the restaurant of the year in Finland by the Finnish Gastronomic society.

We had their 4 course menu. After hearing good reviews from friends and online the expectations were high. Restaurant itself was cozy and nice. Service was mixed. One very friendly waitress and other "I just work here so will do the minimum". Starter fish and main meat were good but nothing special. Cheese plate was rather disappointing but dessert was really good. Definately not bad experience and ready to give another try. High hopes and not great price/value & service experience stars went down to three. Have had much better experience with similar price level in Helsinki.

We were here for my boyfriend’s birthday dinner and the whole experience was great, definitely recommend! Amazing five course dinner and good service. The truffle risotto was to die for!

We spent Valentine's eve at Muru, and the evening was perfect. Muru is usually always fully booked on Fri & Sat eves and Valentines Day eve made no exception. The service was smooth and friendly. My wife's dietary requirements were noted very well, and she was over the moon after the vegetarian main course. I was also very happy to the all menu. The wine pairing was spot on. Despite of the fact that they have two servings per evening, ether was no feeling of being rushed by any means (what happens too often in the restaurants with similar set up). All in all, great experience.
