I was greeted and seated immediately and it was quite empty there as there was only one other guest present. I ordered the entrecote steak. My food came out and I was impressed with the presentation. The steak looked great with the salt and rosemary with the red wine sauce on the side. I cut into the meat and unfortunately it was undercooked. They took it back to re-do it. The flavor was great. My server was apologetic but it turned out great. The red wine sauce took it a notch higher. Great service and good food. I was pleased with my experience here. Four stars!

We had the sirloin, and it was cooked just as we asked (medium and medium-rare). The french fries were served in a common bowl for the two eaters, which was a nice touch as one of us doesn't eat them all that much. The fries themselves tended a bit towards the usual: crispy on the outside but a little bit soggy in the middle. I'll admit to this being my pet peeve, so your mileage may vay: this is very common in restaurants and you might not even think twice. But to the chef: Double fry your fries! Overall and in all fairness, I have nothing to complain about the place, the service or the food. Based on my first visit, Puosun Kellari is now firmly in the race for the best steak house in Helsinki. Would recommend, will go again.

Beware steak cooking temperatures run on the low side even compared to American steakhouses -- my medium-rare ribeye would have been rare at Morton's. Mushroom soup: very good. Green salad: fresh and crispy, non-trivial to do in Finland in November. Rib-eye: awesome. Filet: awesome. Grilled vegetables: shockingly good. Apple tart: very good. Overall, food quality was very solid. Only downside was I felt a bit shot out of a cannon at the start with the pace, but then it slowed down after the start into a more relaxable nice normal pace. Can't tell if that was them responding to something else, thinking that we Americans like a fast pace or what. Nice location on the port to boot. And they take reservations online, which seems somewhat rare.

Although pepper steak is said to be the national food of Finland, there is hardly any good steak…read morerestaurants in the whole country. Hmmm.. ? Grilli Toro, an icon of Espoo, has been serving good steaks at a casual environment for over 40 years (it opened in 1970). Most people that live in the capital have heard of this place and quite a few have even visited it (there is only one location). The restaurant is located at next to a small food market in a residential area. If you are not from the area, you would never find yourself just casually walking or driving by. No matter who you are (vegetarians excluded), you will love this place. The atmosphere couldn't be more casual. During weekday lunches there are executives from the large corporations (Nokia, Kone) sitting next to construction workers. You hardly see this anywhere else. So.. why do people from such various backgrounds go and eat at an off-key place which, for most people, is definitely not close to where they live or work? Simply, for good steak and huge portions. The steaks are big (yes even by American standards), delicious, and most of all the prices are reasonable. I'm a fan. Whenever I'm not in Finland, this restaurant is the one that I miss the most. If you are in Finland and you would like to get a good steak at a casual environment, this is your place. You won't be disappointed. Oh yeah.. Why am I not giving this place five stars? Well, because of the open hours. They are only open until 8pm, even during the weekends. Keep in mind that on Saturdays and Sundays they open at 2pm, which is super late for lunch.

However, for modern taste their dishes are very old-fashioned and remind me of the 80s (napa cabbage-pineapple salad as a side etc.).

And if you like meat and basic dishes, like many do, you will be pleased.

Luckily I found Morrison's only 3 blocks from our hotel (Hotel Kamp). The menu has something for everyone. They have a good selection of appetizers like mozzarella sticks and loaded fries. The burger list is extensive including chicken and plant-based burgers. There is also a good selection of beer and some wine. I had the weiner schnitzel which was excellent! The burgers were all great and huge. There were also salads and other options. There is a kids menu with burgers, chicken fingers, and pasta. Heads up...the kids burgers are not small! All servers spoke English and were extremely nice to us. The drinks and food came out in a good time. The location is like a small restaurant/diner style. There were about 15-20 tables and there was a large table for our party of 8. Still water was free for the table and they had Pepsi products (the only thing I would change!!). They also do take-away. We loved Morrison's so much that we ate there again on our last night in Helsinki. If you are in the mood for good "American" style food in Helsinki, Morrison's is exactly what you are looking for!
