The restaurant claims to have opened in 1966, however I see this is false because the Ode to Joy was written long before then, which was clearly written about this place! Wow! What a meal!

I opted for the Kuu menu, which came with a 4 course dinner featuring some proper Finnish fare.

The salmon soup was dreamy and creamy, with the lovely smoked salmon falling apart in your mouth and the soup complimented it perfectly.

For my main I had the reindeer, and wow! It was honest to God the best thing I have ate in my life. Soft and tender with lovely mashed potato to accompany it. And I must mention the sauce! Berry and wine sauce pairs perfectly with reindeer!

The cheese course was a delighful berry jam with brie from a local cheesery and was served with a lovely fragrant cracker, although I had mine with the bread.

For dessert I had a coffee and the chocolate cake, it went amazingly with the sorbet it was paired with and was a perfect way to wind down my meal.

The place itself is laid back, fancy not stuffy with timely features that make you feel like you're dining out in the 60s, and I mean it in a good way! If you're in Helsinki then you simply must give this place some of your time if you're interested in fine Finnish dining.
