Viking Restaurant Harald — Restaurant in Kuopio sub-region

Delicious Scandinavian food, practically all the items on the menu taste good or better. The tar flavor can be a bit strong when it is featured, especially on the ice cream. The flavors aren't particularly bold, but they match each other well. The restaurant itself has two entrances, one that's good for wheelchairs and one with stairs. It's right next to the bus stops at the edge of the market square so getting to and from there is no problem. The interior has lots of wood and stone decorations in a Vikingey fashion. The lighting is dim which can be an issue if you have problems with your vision, though the tables themselves are generally at least adequately lit. The background music is present but not annoying. The staff are nice and the prices are competitive, being middle of the line. Great place to bring your...

We visited today and got the Thors Shield Meal for two people. The food was amazing, the cook did a great job with cooking the meat perfectly. One of the best tasting meat that I ate so far. We ate everything and left the restaurant well fed. Sadly our stomachs didn't have space to try the desserts. The server was well in character and super kind with a good sense of humour and switched to English so that I could understand as well (I am German and just started learning Finnish). The restaurant had a bit darker lighting and felt really comfy with a nice ambience fitting the Viking theme perfectly. Toilets were nice and clean. 10/10 will visit again...

Excellent dinner with very friendly service. The food at Harald really stands out from other restaurants. They use a lot of game so if you're not a fan of that you might want to look somewhere else - though they do have other dishes than game as well. But game and the Northern tastes are what this place is about. All in all, very nice night out with good food and staff who made us...
