Ravintola Central

Frommer's Review

Known and recommended by many of the residents of the upscale residential neighborhood that contains it, this is a warm and woodsy-looking bar and tavern that serves generous portions of rib-sticking food in a friendly setting. No one will mind if you drop in just for a drink (many patrons seem to view it as their favorite "local"), but if you want to stay for a meal, you can watch the food preparation in the open kitchens. Menu items waver between an appreciation for Finnish nostalgia and more exotic influences from outside Scandinavia. Examples include at least a dozen kinds of pizza, including a version studded with strips of reindeer filet, grilled steak with a brandy-peppercorn sauce, and pike-perch with lobster stuffing. Every Friday, the menu features fresh steamed mussels, served with a white wine sauce and french fries. Children's platters go for around 6€ ($7.20) each.
