This is all about traditional Finnish food! Not the fancy kind but real, rustic and simple home dish from yesteryear. Interior of the restaurant is divided in to three different areas. As you enter, you'll find yourself from rather large cabin-like restaurant. There are two other rooms, of those other is more cabinet like. Staff's wearing traditional type clothing. They're perky and serve you as per needed. What comes to food, it's delicious. Maybe a bit more salt and pepper, but otherwise just great! Ingredients are simple. Fish in different forms (salty herring always), vegetables, mushrooms and lamb or other meat. Home made bread and Carelian pies with eggbutter (munavoi) are tasty. There is also a soup of a day. Such delicacies as Finnish peasoup or a Salmonsoup are pure love in a cattle. After feasting, it's time to have a good cup of coffee companied with a dessert. Pancakes with a strawberry or a raspberry jam, you just can't feel bad after these.

If you want to taste traditional Finnish cuisine in one meal, this is the place to go. They have the foods that most Finnish grow up eating, very homey, warm, simple, without over the head fanciness or pretension. There're new proteins everyday but they use all essential ingredients like reindeer, lamb, salmon, and mushrooms. Finland does not have the most delicious foods in the world but they have their own twists. However, as the foods are pretty exotic and some of them even look quite weird, I hope that there is a dedicated person to explain the foods to customers. Some foods like reindeer will only taste great with lingonberry jam, for example, and most people don't know this. It would be great if they help customers to understand what they should do to get the best out of the buffet. In my case, the waiter only explained when I asked. Also, even though the restaurant has very nice, retro decor, it is quite small so there's usually a line.

The food and service here are both excellent. I am not Finnish and wanted to sample some traditional dishes. They do a buffet for 20 € per person that allows you to eat as much as you would like. Dishes on offer for example are salmon vegetables soup, reindeer meat, moose mince, pork stew, chicken thigh, salmon, mashed or boiled or cream potatoes (I do not know the proper name for all these dishes). They also have some salad / cold options such as egg butter, pickles, and so much more. Every dish was delicious, and my group very much enjoyed the food. We were not prepared and did not make a reservation. However, they let us sit in a private hire room for two hours which was extremely kind of you. This is a really good restaurant and it is cozy. Beer, wine and spirits available to order with your meal. I would make eating here a top priority when visiting Helsinki. Be sure to reserve a table though as it is a popular place.

I have been at Konstan Möljä more than a couple of times for lunch. For a price of 11,30 EUR you get to eat from the buffet which it’s a Finnish dining experience on its own. If you wish a beverage or beer, you pay extra. The decor of the venue takes you back in time as the interior looks like you are in a fishing boat. The waitress is dressed on traditional Finnish attire reinforcing the feeling that you are in an old-school Finnish place. The buffet typically includes mashed potatoes, meat or fish, roasted vegetables, a large selection of picked vegetables. There is also the traditional small Finnish fish (aka silakka). It’s a good value for money. There is complimentary coffee and cookies. If you are a tourist and it’s your first time in Helsinki, I highly recommend this place. If anyone asks you “Where can I get Finnish cuisine in Helsinki ” take them here.

Finnish authentic food served buffet style. The place looks very nice, like a wooden viking restaurant with maps and viking horns and artifacts inside, and the food is served in buffet style: you pay a flat fee per person and pick as much as you can eat. When we went there they had reindeer meat, pork, lamb and fish stew, oven baked salmon, plenty of salads and sides like mashed potatoes, etc. On top of that they have lots of craft beer, like belgian wheats, north arctic lagers, etc. They also have desserts but are on the drinks menu and not included in the buffet but they’re really good! Really great and nice place!

I really wanted a chance to try a wide assortment of Finnish food and this buffet was just the right place to do it. Imagine your mom's home cooking and she makes all her famous dishes for you to try. That was the concept of this restaurant. The different types of Salmon were extremely tasty. The soup of the day was type of beet soup with some other ingredients, almost like a bisque. I admit it wasn't my favorite, but it was nice to try. They also had things like reindeer, elk, and pork. Overall, would recommend this place, especially if you're a tourist like me, looking to sample varieties of Finnish cuisine!
