Located in a trendy Roterman Factories district this restaurant's focus is on meat dishes.
Signature steaks grilled on the open charcoal.
The menu is short and offers a concise selection of starters, mains and desserts.
We tasted the majority of dishes. In my opinion, this is the place to go for steaks only. Those are really good and are worth thirty five euros charged for it. You additionally choose the side dish for extra. Aged beef of the highest quality.
The downside, waiters didn't ask how the steaks should be cooked. I hoped they default to medium-rare. Mine was perfect , but friend of mine ordered tenderloin steak and half of it was cooked well-done, which is a shame.
Beef tartare is picante and I liked it, but the meat is cut almost to a creamy substance. I prefer tartare to be chopped in to tiny cuts, not the mousse.
We ordered two burgers pork and beef. They were good, maybe not worth the price as the brioche buns were to dry and not puffy enough.
Potato chips are fantastic.
Pulled pork and stewed grilled lamb are slow cooked dishes and to my taste asked for more juicy texture as I think they were over dry.
Woke vegetables with buckwheat were good, served in the small iron pot.
Tomato tartare was excessively acidic and salty with unbalanced taste of anchovies and capers.
Desserts were good. Tasty sorbet ice-cream, chocolate mousse and Crème brûlée.
Home made blackcurrant lemonade was really good.
To summarize, being featured in the Michelin guide, this place doesn't live up to the expectation, but charge way above its level.
I would say it's OK....
Read moreI would give 5 stars to this place but one small thing at the end of the dinner made me to drop it to 4 (4,5 stars if there would be possiblity to give 0,5 stars). We ordered "Kuulus part", "Sütepüree" and "Coleslaw". Duck was perfect! Nice and pink and very juicy. Everything looked great on the plate. Sütepüree was really nice smashed potatoes with little bit different taste kick to it. Coleslaw was also good, I liked the sweet taste of it. Portion sizes were enough for us (actually we struggled little bit with desserts after that). For dessert we had "Šokolaadi-rosmariini-mousse" and "Crème brúlee Bailey's". Chocolate mousse had really nice rosemary aftertaste,maybe something that's not for everyone. Crème brúlee had nice and not very strong Bailey's taste. On the side there were fresh berries on both of the desserts. Now, that small but little bit negative experience. The waiter welcomed us with warm smile and the service was really good UNTIL it was time to pay the bill. We had gift cards and when we handed them to him the warm attitude disappeared. It was clear that he saw gift cards for the first time and he didn't know what to do with them. We didn't mind waiting, until he got some help with the gift cards BUT the way the bill was handed over..... and we were not asked if we wanted to pay the remaining sum with card or cash, was the let down of the service. We paid cash and left nice tip (at least I think so) and left. But we felt that after giving the gift cards we were not welcomed guest. Other than that it was nice...
Read moreI recommend it as the kitchen is extremely competent. I have ordered for home delivery over 20 times in 6 months. The rib eye is from a different planet! Amazing. However, had dinner today with a friend. Service was mediocre, at best. Not what you expect from a fine dining establishment. Even if I discount for the local culture, which is a bit more chill/cool than what I am used to, the service was lacking.
Among other small remarks, I can mention that the waiter decided to serve the main dish at the very moment when my friend just left the table for a moment. It is not a huge deal, but for these kind of places, they would normally time it so that they dont serve the few moment if/when somebody is temporarily not seated. To top it off the waiter started to introduce my friends dish TO ME. Was I then supposed to remember and then pass on that information to my friend? A bit weird.
Suggestions for improvement is to try to match the service level with the food and locale. Another would be to perhaps change the menu more often. Maybe I misremember, but I do believe has in principle not been chaneg over the course of 6 months, which I think is a bit long, again for this level of aspirations!
Local was cool, industrial like and nothing to complain about.
I would maybe go there again, hoping for better service, but I will certainly keep ordering for home delivery, as this may be one of the best...
