We had the organic beef Klitch burger with goat cheese and tapenade, with potato wedges that were fried just right. It was very tasty and filling. Also had the tiger prawn avocado salad, which tasted healthy and good, but was a bit light on dressing flavor. My wife had assorted tapas which she really enjoyed. If you are looking for a quality meal in a relaxed setting, this is a great place to go!

The staff member was kind enough to take our orders even though we couldn't eat in-store. It took about 15 minutes to get our food. Everyone really enjoyed their food. The falafel wrap could have used more flavor though and I could barely taste the spicy sauce that I requested on it. But the ingredients were fresh. Someone else who ordered the beef wrap thought it was interesting that the beef was a patty but still liked it. The chicken wrap was tasty according to someone else. We also ordered the loaded fries, which were really good but the halloumi was kind of too stringy and weird for us to enjoy or finish.

Rather than start up with an empty stomach, I thought to get a quick bite before the meetup. Fafa's to the rescue. When I arrived, I was one of only three other people in the restaurant but they suddenly got a rush and the place almost completely filled up. Crazy, but after my meal I can understand why it's so popular. Chicken and hummus pita, with the hot chilli on it. The young lady behind the counter understood enough English for that, and that I was going to have it here. A few minutes later, my order was called out and I was able to dig in. If the intention here is to eat this as a sandwich, they're crazy. At least the first part, you'll need to fork out pieces and eat them separately or it all falls apart. Delicious fresh and crisp vegetables, hot and spicy chicken, cooling yogurt sauce. All mixed together for a great and not-too-expensive meal. Well done, Fafa's! [Review 10095 overall, 1681 of 2018.]

The staff was kind and attentive throughout, offering a salted caramel from the chef at the end of the meal. I was a bit startled by the slow pace of the kitchen though as the dishes I ordered weee not terribly complex nor time intensive. I was content with the food as it gave me a taste of Finland's seafood, although I was a bit disappointed as I felt like there was a wide opportunity to impress, but that missed the mark a bit. (Vendace Roe: F) - I was quite disappointed by this offering as it upsells roe to a price similar to caviar when I personally find that the roe present in Japanese cuisine is not too disimilar except at a fraction of the price. (Lobster Pasta: C) - The pasta shape was a smart choice as it picks up that beautiful tomato cream sauce. I would've liked the lobster to be more at the forefront of this dish as the pieces that were included were relatively hidden in the dish, a missed opportunity to highlight the beautiful seafood.

By far the best spot I've eaten at since being in Helsinki. The menu itself is beyond impressive! I was lucky to be with a large group and we ordered a little of everything. I loved every bite! Amazingly fresh food with an impeccable touch of Greece! I truly felt the authenticity with all the special flavors. Coworkers raved the entire night. I will tell anyone coming to Helsinki to PLEASE treat yourself to a special meal at El Greco, the ambiance is great & I'll never return to Helsinki without going there for a meal...or two!

Im a huge fan of Pilpel, which is a Israeli falafel shop in London. So when I learned from my…read morecolleague that there's a falafel shop with a similar concept in Helsinki, I begged him to try it out right away. Fafa now has several locations in Helsinki and we went to their latest venture - the shop located near Kamppi. I was very happy to see a Sabich salad featured on the menu; Sabich means typically the addition of aubergines and boiled eggs to the pita or salad. I went for the spicy option and was positively surprised by the genuine kick that the chilli sauce added. My colleague went for the "normal" falafel pita sandwich. My salad was ok to good - flavourwise it was spot on, but I disliked the fact that they puffed up the salad with too much lettuce. Now, don't get me wrong: I ordered a salad after all and now I'm complaining about too much lettuce? - Well, as I mentioned earlier I love the Pilpel chain in London and when they do these kinds of salads, actual lettuce is only part of the equation and the rest is made up of spiced cabbage (both white and red), tomatoes, hummus, onions etc. My colleague was mightily happy with his falafel pita/sandwich and I have to say it looked quite delicious. Overall, I was quite happy with my visit here...and I will definitely return when I visit Helsinki next time. (Oh, only this time I will not sit in, as the smell of fried falafels really stays in your clothes for quite a while ;-)
