Always a fan of good Thai food I invited a coleague for dinner as I had spotted a small thai…read morerestaurant not far from work. The atmosphere was nice (apart from the music that is not everyone's liking, but traditional thai) and after a long study of the menu we decided to take 3 dishes for the 2 of us. The quality of the food was above average for a european Thai restaurant (farang style so not to spicy, but that was good for my guest). Flavors were balanced though i found the mussaman curry a bit to toned down as I prefer it a bit stronger. My coleague however loved it so this probably has more to do with the way I am used to Thai food. Te price was not cheap and not overly expensive considering we had 3 dishes to choose from (normally enough for 3) and drinks for a total of 40 euros. Definetelly worth the visit even when another thai restaurant in town was recommended by a local Thai. Sabai Thai is more conveniently located

This review is for the hotel, haven't eaten in the restaurant…read more This is a fabulous boutique hotel with individually designed rooms which each have their own theme. I've stayed here a couple of times and the rooms are beautiful up to a finest detail. The service is fantastic, always friendly and knowledgeable staff. The breakfast is so good you can easily skip lunch. The breakfast buffet includes many salty and sweet items, fresh veggies and fruit, hand crafted omelet, salmon, yogurt, Karelian pies and so much more. Don't miss the tyrni shots on the side shelf, they are fabulous! The hotel also provides a welcome drink, ask for a non alcoholic one if you're interested, they are delicious! Really great hotel, one of my best stays. If I had more time, would spend some of it at the hotel itself. I'd only miss a gym attached to the hotel but they provide an access to a nearby hotel downtown. The word is that this is the best hotel in town and cannot but agree!

It sounded a little risky, but we were assured by our waiter that it was excellent and after describing how it was prepared via slow cooking many of us decided to take a chance on it, as it is always nice to try something new that you normally don't eat. None of us were disappointed. The dish was excellent as well as the service. There is a reason this place is #1 on other review sites! Price: The evening got pretty expensive in our party of 7, but you can probably scrape by okay with the a la carte menu if you want to limit the spending but still enjoy a fine dining experience.

I knew Chef Walter from when he was head chef at the Officer's Club in Tikkakoski. Walter could…read moretake the very modest ingredients provided him by the Finnish Air Force and create a superb lunch which was often the high point of an otherwise grueling day of meetings. The day he left for greener pastures was a sad one indeed and lamented by all who came to love his food. So it turns out this restaurant is his greener pasture! I really was happy to find that he had opened his own place in (I believe) the old VR station. All of his former customers from Tikkakoski now patronize this establishment, and not because we are a charitable bunch. It's because we know we will be served top notch food by an Austrian-trained chef. The last time I was there I brought an American coworker of Austrian heritage who had never visited Austria. Walter absolutely doted on him, creating a menu specifically to highlight Austrian cuisine and serving it personally. My coworker was floored and proclaimed it the best meal he had ever eaten. Of course the menu features Austrian classics such as Wiener Schnitzel, but Walter also tailors his menu to the Finnish palate and what is locally available. Yes, we're talking Reindeer Schnitzel! Mushrooms, finfish, and shellfish are well represented on the menu, as are superb Italian specialties. In fact, his Italian dishes are notable. I'm wondering what he could do with a wood fired brick pizza oven. He offers prix fixe menus in Traditional (best described as French continental), Finnish, Austrian, and Vegetarian themes, along with wine pairings. My only problem with the prix fixe is that inevitably I will see something on the a la carte or specials menu that I prefer and mess up the whole fixed menu concept. The price of being a trailblazer. In summary, this is a rare opportunity not to be passed up. I guarantee you will be served superb foods with a hearty smile.

I was a little nervous about so many forms of fish in the cold bar but everything was awesome, and beautifully created.
