There was a decent beer selection. I had the pork belly here and it was very good! I also ordered a brownie with a scoop of ice cream for dessert. I liked the pork belly so much that I came back a second time on a different day. Four stars!

On a sunny day, the patio is absolutely devine with colourful tables, lilac trees and a gazebo! Inside, the atmosphere is cosy with red brick walls and wood panels. The staff is super friendly and the menu offers great burgers as well as vegetarian options like halloumi cheese salad or falafels. It was a wonderful experience and I had a great time. I highly recommend the place, especially on a sunny summer day!

I came here at the suggestion of work colleagues. The restaurant is located in a tower overlooking…read moresome lakes. The tower rotates so that a panoramic view of the city can be seen while dining for an hour. The ambience of the restaurant was great, the service was friendly and there were ample beer and wines to choose from. The menu did not appear to have beef, chicken or pork offerings so I ended up ordering lamb. I don't mind lamb but this lamb was served rare and didn't look great. There were some dessert offerings as well, none of which interested me. Come for the views and the wine. Three stars!

I would give 4.5 stars but it's not possible. We liked the wines and the wine pairings, the food…read morewas good, guaranteed fresh finnish vegetables, fish and meat but the aww-effect was missing.

I recently dined at Tuulensuu on a Thursday evening with a friend. The place is cozy and has a good…read moreatmosphere. As far as beers go, they have a huge bottle selection and also some good stuff on tap. I started with a domestic Amber Ale (Maku Brewing) half pint draft -- great that they offer smaller sizes so you can sample around. Maybe I have commitment issues. The beer selection reflects the Belgian theme of the place. I'm more of an IPA guy, and took a pint of their only IPA tap (Jaipur, Thornbridge Brewery). For food, I had the schnitzel, which was solid -- evidenced by my cleaned plate. Finished with a Stella for liquid dessert. If your beer tastes favor Central Europe and/or you're looking for a quiet, classier place to wine and dine, I highly recommend Tuulensuu. The staff were also friendly and knowledgeable. Book a table in advance -- the place filled up quickly.

I had the seafood platter for a starter with a Czech lager. Reindeer sirloin for the main course with a glass of red wine. And for dessert, some type of berry mousse. So very traditional Finnish cuisine -- and very tasty! All in all, it was a lovely, intimate dining experience and I look forward to visiting again. Note the beer selection is quite limited, so be prepared for better pairings with their wine selection. The value for you money here is phenomenal!

Very hungry when we arrived. The food was great, very much like a big breakfast place in the US (something that's rather hard to find). Hubby got the steak, kids and me got the pancakes with eggs and bacon. All super yummy. Totally recommend. We sat out on the patio and lucked out with a spot (thankfully after the bike ride). I believe reservations are for inside which is tiny, tiny. I'd sit outside if you can.

Came here for the sauna but not dinner…read more There are two co-ed sauna rooms, they are definitely on the hotter side compared to other saunas I've been too. I love how you get a lovely view of the city from the window as you sweat. The scenery at night is quite beautiful. The changing area has spacious lockers and nice showers. I wish they have a spinner for drying the swimsuit. In between sauna, if you like, there's a lounge area next to the restaurant, where you can relax with a drink. In warmer weather the outside seating area is great too. There's a small pool where you can go for a refreshing dip. I went in April and, with some encouragement and tips from a local, I managed to do two super fast polar dips in the pool, on a snowy night. Yes, it was insane, but the rush of adrenaline was addictive, lol. (Tip: go into the pool backwards, so you can just kneel down into the water, and get out of the freezing water quick!!) Bring your own swimsuit and sandals, though they do offer rentals if you need them. Also, it's less expensive if you visit earlier in the day.

For lunch they offer a 10 euro special that includes a salad that you make yourself followed by an entree. Today it was beef cheek. It was so tender. Yum! Your lunch also includes coffee or tea. They also have a bar so feel free to order a glass of wine while you dine. They offer an array of pastries as well. Most importantly, 10 additional euros gives you access to the sauna that also overlooks the river. I'm impressed. Make sure you visit for lunch with your towel and bathing suit as this is a mixed gender sauna.
