Kynsilaukka Ravintola

Surprisingly good. We were a fairly large group and the service was swift and efficient. Bread offered multiple times during the meal, and orders taken quickly, and brought to table without delay. Despite the garlic theme (and yes, they do have a tasty garlic vodka martini!) there is plenty of choice here. My cold smoked salmon appetizer was simple and tasty, and I paired it with crusty rye bread (with garlic spread!) and a delicious Pouilly Fume. The main course was a spectacular lamb stew, which came served in its own saucepan, with a generous portion of gratin potatoes. It was succulent, a good serving size, and the gravy was delicious. The Amarone Valpolicella was an excellent match for this robust dish. Didn't eat dessert, but my colleagues seemed satisfied.

If you like garlic, this is your place. Serving what I guess can be referred to as Finnish food, everything here revolves around Garlic. As I love the stuff, I was in heaven here. I found all the food to be really tasty, starting with the bread served with all kinds of garlic sauces through to the finishing shot of some kind of non-alcoholic herb drink which helps you digest. Amazingly, it also signifantly reduced how much we stunk of garlic. Amazing stuff…I want the recipe. Service was also very nice and made an effort to fullfill every wish. Spoke very good English as well. Price was moderate towards expensive but it’s a very nice setting and high quality food. If you like garlic, and you better if you want to eat here, I highly recommend stopping in at this place.
