I like restaurants that pay attention to the freshness and quality of the ingredients that they use. This is not limited to fine dining restaurants—give me a fantastic sandwich bursting with real flavor over a mediocre foie gras any day.

Restaurant: Vivo's Roba

Parasta palvelua, mitä olen ikinä Suomessa saanut. Ostin lounaan ja sain kaupan päälle tosi hyvän mielen, ja myös lapsia otettiin ystävällisesti huomioon. En tajua aiempia valituksia palvelusta--ehkä henkilökunta nyt vaihtunut? Itse ruoka (vitriinistä kasattuja erillaisia ruokia, hummusta, jne) myös älyttömän hyvää.

Restaurant: Ravintola Tori finnish

Service here used to be snippy and cold, but that's definitely changed now. Waitstaff lately have been consistently friendly, flexible, and even patient with children. The food is great for what it is, brunchy sort of homecooked fare in a relaxed neighborhood atmosphere. Deserves a higher rating than it's currently got. (Hence this review)

Restaurant: Vapiano Fresh Italian!

Surprisingly good, fresh, al dente pasta, made properly so the sauce soaks in. The cooks are FAST, but the lines are many and long, and it can be frustrating/oddly stressful to stand waiting for your food in this noisy full-on cafeteria atmosphere with people anxiously fidgeting behind you--I usually take it to go and get out as fast as I can. Try the more exotic pasta varieties--they had some salmon artichoke-heart pasta that was really excellent.

Restaurant: Pizzeria Nikolai

Very sweet, helpful and friendly waiter! Unfortunately the pizzas are disappointingly soulless. Crust is promising but toppings sub-par and careless.
