Sunn

The brunch was really good and reasonably priced, 21 €. The only exception were coffee and tea. Coffee tasted horrible and tea water was not hot enough. You also have to pay extra for juice, which was irritating. The waiters were friendly and attended well to the needs of the customers.

I dined at Sunn recently one evening with work colleagues. It’s conveniently situated next to Senaatintori («Senate Square») in the heart of Helsinki. I reckon it has great views over the square towards Tuomiokirkko (the big white church in Helsinki), but the darkness of winter evenings in Finland didn’t allow much this visit.
We dined upstairs in a private cabinet with a set menu. Lots of Finnish tradition in the food: mushroom soup starter, sautéed fish fillet main (Arctic char?), finishing with a a sorbet (raspberry and pomegranate) and assorted chocolates, berries and nuts. I experienced the proverbial «soup to nuts» at Sunn :)
All in all, it was an enjoyable dinner and I think their cabinets are a great venue choice if you’re looking for a quiet, intimate setting to host a group dinner. I’d like to visit again during summertime for brunch to get a better seasonal feel.

It was ‘crayfish season’ in Helsinki and what a place to taste some of these little crustaceans, their ‘Rapumenu’ was delicious and the staff were kind enough to even show us how to eat them like a pro (as we knew they can be quite messy)!

Location is super good. We had a nice cabinet just for our group. We had vappu (1^st May celebration) dinner here, the service was a bit slow but friendly. The predefined menu offered good options and the food was good quality.

Sunn restaurant has a delightful view over the cathedral and is is a perfect location to see some of the sights of Helsinki. In all honesty it is hard to quantify the price range in the simple survey, if you are tacking in the brunch option then look to spend 16 – 18 € per head, and if wanting to start your evening off with nice meal then you will be spending considerably more, starters in the evening range from 8 – 10 € and a main course can be 28 €, and thats before you had a kossu to start you off. What ever your budget allows Sunn is a great choice either way. They make pretty much everthing in house and the quality shows.
Its friendly with great service, the only real down side is the flooring? you’ll understand when you go there ;-)
If your a tourist in the city hit sunn for a brunch and then enjoy, the city museum, a look at the presidential palace, the cathedral and the old market in the harbour, all are within 5 mins walk!
