I decided to try Hoku at the recommendation of our AirBnB host and Yelp. 40 reviews on…read moreYelp...that's impressive for Finland! This place lives up to the hype. Since it is located on the 5th floor of Kamppi Square and has floor to ceiling windows, the views are reeeeal nice. The boyfriend and I came for lunch at 11:30am on a Friday and were seated without a reservation after we placed our order and paid at the counter. I tried the Kalua Pork & Tiger Prawns (14€) while the boyfriend went with the Salmon Teriyaki (15€) after reading the glowing reviews on here. The Kalua Pork dish was super tasty and had more broth than I was expecting; I was glad it came with a bowl of rice. The salmon was SO moist with a teriyaki sauce that wasn't too overbearing! Needless to say we finished both our dishes without a bite to spare. The portions are medium-sized. If you come starving, it may not be enough to make you feel 100% satiated. However, the sophisticated atmosphere and unique & flavorful dishes made Hoku a great experience.

On dinner-time you have to make a reservation if you are coming with big groupie or 2 people. For 1 person...

Three stars for our server and the view. Food is overhyped and overpriced for the teeny portions…read more We ordered the large order of four seared scallops and requested them to be cooked more than seared. The scallops were the size of a US quarter and thin. The four skewers of prawns held two small shrimp apiece. Both items were tasty, but the portions were small for the prices. The tempeh was decent in portion, as was the rice. The chocolate dessert lacked substance and taste, and we left 95% of it. Most disappointing.

Got lucky with this place, we wanted something to top the other places we were eating at…read more On Yelp this place came up as an Asian Fusion with a Helsinki twist. Also is a Michelin rated restaurant which we didn't know until we arrived. After eating I would say this place was more Eurasian Fusion if that is such a word?!?! Service was on the slow side as people probably liked to sit for 3 hours and eat their food slowly. Doesn't work for me since I am the most impatient person you would ever meet! :-) On multiple occasions asked them to keep bringing out the food. Once they figured out the rhythm, plates started coming out in time and was just right. Every single item was full flavored and didn't lack in anything, lots of spices and flavors all seemed to work together in a unique way. For sure would come back and do the tasting menu again.

Pick a meal of three, four or five rolls accompanied with one of two delicious daily salads. And don't forget the dip for your rolls. Everything here is fresh. And you can taste that. The food is great, really delicious and makes you full without feeling stuffed afterwards. The small restaurant in Yrjönkatu is sharing its premises with Nudge. That means that you can not only have a really nice lunch in a cozy atmosphere. You can also find sustainable products from small local shops that sell cosmetics, children's clothing and Finnish design.

Retail and rolls ...what a combination....awesome concept I…read morewould highly recommend a visit to both the shop NUDGE and the little eatery inside... Rulla. The wares are really well chosen organic or sustainably produced clothes and other items. And the the rolls are a tasty treat with multiple sauces and home made soup of the day included in their specials, all reasonably priced. The rolls are their version of a Vietnamese spring roll, smaller and very unique .They have a bunch of options , from veggies to fish and one or two beef based rolls. As a person who has been to countless Vietnamese restaurants the rolls here beat the Viet version, at least for us round eyes, hands down, The people there are friendly and it is low key and quick. There are only 3 tables so it can get full easily .Perfcec light lunch.

From hand made noodles (the only place in town that would serve such a dish), to different style of curries and Asian dishes alike. The place has been open for a while but the food selection has had a revamp recently with the noodle selection only included in the menu less than a month ago. Recommended with a nice group of friends or just a romantic meal for two. Staff is welcome to explain the dishes or give advice for the best choice of the moment. One downturn was that our companions that did not order hand made noodles received their dishes lukewarm. Enjoy!

We ordered fried green beans, and immediately after tasting it we realised it SUPER salty, unedible. The tofu dish we had was fine. Everybody in our table agreed, so I told the waitress about this and asked if we could send it back. She went to the kitchen to ask about it, and a few minutes later a woman (who I guess was the manager?) came to our table and asked what's wrong. I told her about the issue and she basically brushed it off by saying "this is how it should taste like" and "many finnish people like it salty like this". I said that it is not edible and asked if we could send it back, and she said no. I was shocked about this, nobody should be forced to pay for something that is way overly salted to the point where you have to drink a full glass of water after every bean. Gladly I wasn't the one paying for the food, but if I was I wouldn't have. It was THAT BAD. I've never sent food back before, so trust me, it wasn't edible. The manager should learn a thing or two about customer service. Usually when you tell that something is wrong with the food you would want make sure that after leaving the customer can say they had a good experience despite the issue. Her solution to my feedback was "eat some rice with it". We didn't finish the dish, like I said it wasn't something that a normal person could eat. I can promise one thing; We'll never come back here again.
