I consider myself quite the steak guy, so I was a little apprehensive about ordering the dry age here at a hotel restaurant. I am glad I did. Steak was ordered medium and came to the table well cooked and the presentation was top notch. I had grilled vegetables with my meal and they were really good, although the carrots were slightly more al dente for my liking but they were good. Had the creme brûlée with raspberry's sorbet. It was spot on perfect. Service was really good here as well. One warning though - it is not cheap! read more

Grill It! Marina - Creme brûlée - Barbeque Near Me - Turku, 01

It was quite a disaster. We ordered Grill it! Burgers: Charcoal-grilled Finnish beef steak, brioche roll, basil and chilli mayonnaise, cheddar cheese, coleslaw, bacon and rosemary-salted French fries. I ordered it gluten-free but both were regular so the waiter apologised and took my plate back to the kitchen. My friend thought she'd wait for me to have my order before starting to eat but it took ages even though there were just a few customers in the big restaurant. While waiting a waitress came to ask if we're fine and said that the waiter had forgotten to say about the gluten-free order to the kitchen. When the waiter finally brought my meal, he said the kitchen sent apologies so I was confused who's lying here - the chef or the waiter. A moment later I noticed there wasn't any cheese in my burger so I asked the waiter why is that. He was clearly embarrased and went to ask the kitchen about the cheese. He came back with a cold slice of cheddar. I was like, are you serious? The cheese is supposed to be warm and melted on the steak, not cold and hard. I couldn't taste or see any rosemary in the fries, they were just basic fries. It's always frustrating when they promise something in the menu and you choose it excited to taste something special but the reality is just dull. The only delicious parts of the course were basil mayonnaise (didn't taste any chili there), coleslaw and Russian pickled cucumber with garlic. The steak was quite dry. The waiter offered me a free dessert and free coffees to both of us for the mistakes he and the kitchen made but we were too full to eat or drink either after the meal. So we didn't get any discount. Not going there anymore. read more
