The best Finnish restaurants Helsinki

Just before the bridge leading to the Suomenlinna Museum, there's a path leading to the yacht harbour. Directly opposite is the wonderful Valimo café, a haven of peace where you can feel at home: a large room with a log fire, sofas for children and friendly service. Depending on the season, the menu includes chanterelle pasta, fish, cakes and live music. It's easy to see why local families flock here as much as visiting tourists!

Along an illuminated passageway, as if at the foot of a tower, lies an intimate, almost minimalist address that's hard to believe is a restaurant. And yet, what a wonderful address this Nokka restaurant is, where products come in ultra-short circuits and dishes come very close to haute gastronomy! Menus change regularly, but every dish delivers on the promise of freshness and delicacy, whether it's reindeer, fish, sunflower seeds or crab stew. In short, a marvel!

L'appartement n° 14 is the story of two friends, Johanna and Karin, who decided in 2019 to open an accommodation that would be, for all guests, a second home, a place where you come to have a good time and feel good! It's a bright, comfortable space where you come to eat and drink, with a menu of 3, 5 or 7 different dishes to choose from. Depending on your mood, you can order salmon mousse, fennel salami, red fruit jam, kale or scrambled eggs. A very, very pleasant address!

Simple, tasty cuisine that honors Finland's culinary heritage through dishes executed without false notes: that's the promise of a meal at Lehtovaara. Whether it's lunch, with salmon, perch and duck in sauce, or dinner, with the gourmet menu (and venison tartare to die for), you're guaranteed to have a great time, rounded off by tempting desserts such as the parfait with caramel sauce or the crème brûlée with red fruits!
