Erittäin mukava paikka. Hyvä rento iloinen tunnelma. Henkilökunta erittäin osaavaa ja palveluvalmiita. Ruoka oli aivan uskomattoman hyvää. Lukuisia menu vaihtoehtoja sekä yllätysmenu, jos haluaa syödä vielä pidemmän kaavan mukaan. Suosittelen

Emme syöneet vaan nautimme juomia ennen konserttiin menoa.

The service was very good. The mocktail (dark bloom) was nice. For food, we had the 4-course chef's surprise menu. They were all good. I just didn't like the pike as much as the other dishes. The sauce and veggies in the pike dish were good. The vegetarian dishes were nice. The dessert was also nice. The four star is relative to the other restaurants on the Michelin guide list that I've tried.
