What our guests say

Great food in a very tiny restaurant. I really liked the noodle dish with chili and chicken. Also the meat pie with beef in it was super tasty.
Ismail
Delicious food and excellent handmade noodles! It was apparent how much time and care went into each dish. I will be sure to return the next time I’m in Helsinki.
Sara Cerami
I enjoyed the noodle soup. It was very tasty and delicious. I highly recommend it, especially on cool autumn days. I was also very pleased with the service. The restaurant is located near Kamppi and is easy to find.
