A small and cosy Russian restaurant. The ordering system is very simple and quick, you choose your food with your mobile phone and send your order. They served us everything very quickly. We ordered the salmon soup and the meat filled Pielmien and for dessert we ordered the pancake with strawberries and ice cream. Everything was very delicious and the staff was very friendly. I loved the Russian beer.

The meatblini was of high quality and tasty, and surprisingly large. Perhaps a slightly bolder seasoning would have suited this dish. The non-alcoholic beer was really good. In the future I will try blinis with mushrooms and dumplings. Ordering via browser and payment via Mobilepay worked well, although a little guesswork at first with the operating logic.

The food was excellent and the service was friendly. Unnecessary criticism from some people - the restaurant is perfect thank you 🙂

The price/quality ratio does not match. I could make the same braids at home. I liked the bite and I'm glad the dog got to come.

Nice warm atmosphere in this small restaurant across the street from the Kultturitalo.The menu is mainly focused on songs, which are then served in several versions - both savoury and sweet.The blinis were good and very filling, but compared to many other Russian restaurants, their texture was more like crepes or pancakes, and I'm not too convinced about the flour used in the dough, as I didn't taste any buckwheat in the final product. A bit wheat-rich, I think. The blinis in question may, of course, be a local version from a particular region, perhaps I should have asked...I think the price is reasonable.Given the location of the place, it is worth bearing in mind that the restaurant will undoubtedly be full before the shows across the road start. However, there are only just under thirty seats.
