Worse restaurant I’ve been to in Helsinki. We didn’t know where to go that night since the restaurant we were targeting first was close. So we ended up there, when we entered we couldn’t say that we were really welcomed, we felt like we were judged and that our presence was really annoying them. If we knew where else to go we would probably have left at that point. My dad took a burger which came with like ten fries. And I took the salmon steak. When I asked with what it was coming the waiter told me I could choose, I choosed the potatoes with mushrooms. The thing is that we realised on the check that these potatoes were billed an additional 7 €… Which means that the salmon, already paid 27 € was suppose to come blank, with nothing at all not even a salad leaf… Seriously, who are they kidding? Put it directly on the menu for 33 € and don’t rip off people like that !! Speaking of the food itself, the salmon was good, the potatoes were bathing in oil and i really didn’t like the mushrooms. The burger was just ok but a bit dry.

After a long flight I was looking forward to a good steak. That was not what I received at all. The steak head very little flavor and an odd taste overall. Nearly $ 100 for steak and class of wine. Definitely not worth the price.

We decided to test the relatively new steakhouse in Helsinki. After reading mixed reviews, we decided to try it. The interior of the restaurant is nice. Very plain, suitable for a steak house. There are numerous complaints about the service(or more lack of it) but this was not an issue for us. There is some truth in it, the service was quite«neutral» I would say. But we were not expecting big smiles or red carpets. The personnel knew their stuff about steaks and that was enough. The food. Meat. All. Yes that was good. the selection of meats was ok and every one of them was served just as they were supposed to be served. The real challenge in many restaurants is always the medium rare stuff — these guys excelled it. The steaks were good and tasty. I had t-bone steak and the rest had filet mignon. The side orders are not stellar — they are very basic and really nothing to write home about. This would be something that the restaurant could(and should) fix. The fries were ok but the rest — meh. Also I would welcome a selection of different salts and peppers, I found the steaks little bit too unsalted. Salt grinder was brought when requested. So all in all, the average I would give 3.5 /5 stars but I give one extra half star for the medium rare excellence and for future hope that the restaurant will get better sides. Price level was ok, holds well against the quality. I would go and eat here a second time no problems.

The food is nice… Service is not… Funny that the restaurant is even still open as there is no service what so ever…
