Restaurant and Bakery Levain — Restaurant in Helsinki sub-region

Unfriendly personal making gestures and hurrying to order, trying to discourage people to stay, asking for reservation for a simple highly overpriced and lousy breakfast, even making remarks that it will take 25 min waiting time for a simple toast mentioning a service break in the middle of the morning, not only that for a non fresh bottled orange use which she proudly charged premium price pointed with her finger to the self service corner sort of open vending machine, it came across as a prank. The place looks like a hospital anything than cozy. The waiter served us our plates on top of a filthy table with pile of dirty dishes and used dirty napkins and glasses from the previous customer, she only removed half of it in a gesture of fake courtesy, leaving the disgusting dirty paper napkins from the previous guest and half of the dirty mugs and plates as decoration. It was so filthy that it makes their overpriced tiny and tasteless eggs Benedict even less appealing. The dough was cold uncooked and old, if someone considers this place a good place because it’s lack of standards and self respect, please be kind towards others and be more honest in your reviews or leave it. I need to mention the price of 54 eur 2 toast and granola and bottled non fresh orange juice, it...

Terrible service, I think it should be automatical that after a group of 4 people finishes their lunch, the table should be cleaned immediately, so they can keep ordering. Our experience was that I needed to ask the waiter to clean the table and she didn’t even wipe it out, just took the dishes. However, the food was brilliant. Except, if you have a reservation at 1pm and the lunch started at 11 or earlier, you assume the restaurant will serve all the meals - salmon was already gone, which is funny considering how salmon is popular and usually chosen for lunch. Additionally, if it’s a group of 4 people, maybe it would be better to serve more than just 2 mid-size bread pieces cut in a half. Anyway, all in all, the atmosphere was great, food was tasty, maybe just a bad day to come. I will definitely come the next time, but I ended up very...

Very cool looking place if you like industrial style. Good range of choice yet they run out quick, be ready to actually having quite limited range. Overall tasted 4 types of cakes all were great, so was the coffee. Only letdown(s): quite messy WC area limited and very pricey vegan options

Also I saw other people eating like main dishes, salads yet I was not introduced to such options, menu stated only drinks and pastries.

Atmosphere is good, only deduction for "too hype" people that kinda make average person feel bland. Also a bit sad for hype people pets - they clearly do not enjoy the experience as much as their owners at this place (noisy, crowded, limited space,...
