Malabadi may sound like your typical kebab pizzeria but I assure you it is nothing like it - it is…read morea true Turkish restaurant. I first gave three stars because I thought the menu was too expensive. Now I've changed it to five stars because Malabadi has become a favorite restaurant. The food is tasty and they've done an amazing job with the interior decoration of the place. It's great for lunch and also very nice for dinner with friends. Malabadi in Tammela is the second Malabadi to open in Tampere with the first one being in Hervanta. The prices in Tammela are a bit higher and the menu differs from Hervanta. While the Hervanta restaurant is more "homey" with darker colours used for decoration, Tammela restaurant is very very stylish and they've made the restaurant light and bright with big windows and light colours in decoration. The lunch buffet is great with warm meats, pizza, vegetables and a large salad buffet with all kinds of very tasty salads with spices. The salad buffet is partially like a meze buffet with marinated olives & garlic, couscous salad etc but it is mixed with more traditional items like mushroom salad and water melon cubed. The price for the buffet was 10,50e which is kind of expensive in the area it is in but perhaps they're making up for the big renovation costs or trying to be profiled as a more classy restaurant. I was happy to pay the price for the nice set of flavours and the seat on the patio in the sun but my husband complained ;) I expect the place to be very very popular at lunch time and fairly popular in the evenings. I definitely will keep returning for the lunch buffet and a great chicken kebab in the evening.

Situated in Kissanmaa, for the most part this is a typical Finnish independent pizza / kebab place…read more I'd normally rate it average, but I'm knocking off a star for the following: - Prices on the printed menu do not match what you get in person - Advertised website does not work - Does not appear to have free delivery offers (like 15 EUR order for free delivery or whatever) On this particular Wednesday evening, I took a "Dillinger" pizza to go (=ground beef, ham, salami, onion) and it wasn't great -- the onions were the only ingredient that seemed fresh. On the plus side, the one man band staff was friendly and hard working.

Once we were seated we were greeted soon after and were able to place orders in a timely manner. I was impressed that the menu was large. There were plenty of offerings for both pizza and pasta. The pizza appeared to be Naples-inspired pizza; however, the pizza was thin but did not taste near as good as Napule in Helsinki. I liked that although it was Italian-style pizza, there were diverse offerings of toppings more preferred with American pizza. I ordered a BBQ cheeseburger pizza with BBQ sauce topping, ground beef, bacon and cheddar cheese. I also ordered a pasta with pesto sauce, fettuccini noodles, Kalamata olives, buffalo mozzarella and parmesan cheese. The pasta was very good and the pizza was OK. A small salad bar was included. Overall 3.5 star experience with good service and reasonable prices.

This is not the best pizza I have ever had (I'm from NYC) but it's still very impressive and I love the dough that they use. You can get pizzas like #100, the Finlandia, which has venison and Finlandia vodka, but if you want to start simply, try #1 - the Margherita. (And I'm not afraid to eat mine NY style, which means pick it up and fold it in half, and then tell everybody how awesome you are for eating it the "right" way). On my last visit I ordered #6 - the Calzone, which listed ingredients simply "cheese, ham". I misinterpreted this to mean I was going to get served a pie with extra cheese and ham toppings, since I thought the title was simply a name that they gave it, like Quattro Stagione or Frutti di Mare. But no - it's an actual calzone (and good too). If you don't speak Finnish and get the Finnish menu, just ask for the English one. Get a house red wine. When finished, pay for your meal up front and drop some money into the tip jar.
