Food was decent, nothing mind-blowing, but the service really stood out. A bit pricey for what you get, though okay for a nicer night out.

Decent food and the staff were friendly enough. Had a solid meal here during our Otep&auml;&auml; visit. Nothing fancy, but it hit the spot.

Big portions, that&rsquo;s what got me. Ordered the pork knuckle and it was huge, easily enough for two. Price was fair for what you get, especially after walking around all day. Service was fast, no waiting around. Place was a bit busy but fine. I&rsquo;d come back if I&rsquo;m hungry again.

The smoked mushroom and strawberry soup caught me off guard&mdash;sweet and earthy at the same time, kinda weird but I liked it. Not sure I&rsquo;d order it again, but it&rsquo;s fun to try. Everything else was solid, just a bit pricey for what you get. Nice spot if you&rsquo;re feeling adventurous.

The goat cheese salad with blueberries is still my go-to here. Duck filet was solid too. Place keeps its quality every time I come back.

Tried the tasting menu last night. Scallop appetizer was the standout, really fresh. Plates looked nice, well balanced flavors. Portions are kinda small though, left a bit hungry. Place was busy even on a weekday. Fine if you&#39;re okay with paying more for smaller plates.

The fried rye bread in butter is the reason to come here. Schnitzel was solid too. Sausage stew had good flavor but I&rsquo;ve had better.

Lovely little guesthouse with a nice terrace. Breakfast was solid, staff friendly enough. Wish I could&#39;ve stayed longer.

Came in for a late breakfast, got the omelette and American pancakes. Both were solid, no complaints. Service was quick and friendly, which I appreciated since I was in a bit of a rush. Nothing fancy, but it hit the spot. Maybe a touch pricey for what it is, but I&#39;d stop by again if I&#39;m in the area.

The pizza was decent but came out a bit dry last time. Space is modern and roomy, self-service keeps things moving fast. Fine for a quick bite, nothing more.

The crispy wings were spot on, really good. Nice spot, kind of stylish but still comfortable. I had a glass of their house red with the meal, worked well enough. Service was friendly, no complaints. Maybe a bit on the pricier side for what it is, but I&#39;d swing by again if I&#39;m in the area.

Solid stop for a quick meal. Food was consistent, nothing fancy. Staff polite, though English was a bit limited. Paid by card, no issues.

Spacious place, got a table easy enough on a Saturday. Coffee was fine, Brita cake was solid. Bit of a hum with people working and playing games, but still chill.

Stopped by for a late lunch and grabbed a galette with a glass of cider. The buckwheat crepe was light, not greasy at all, and the filling was generous. Chicken salad was decent too, though nothing wild. Prices are fair for what you get. Good place if you want something easy and not too heavy.

Lunch special is where it&rsquo;s at. Got the sushi set and honestly the fish was fresh, rice was decent. Tempura came out crispy, not greasy. For the price, the portion felt fair. Place was a bit busy but whatever. I&rsquo;d come back on a weekday when it&rsquo;s quieter.

Stopped here every morning during our Tartu trip. Pastries were solid, sweet and savory both hit. Coffee did the job. Small place, got busy around 9. No complaints really.

Dropped by for dinner and honestly the food was really good. Got the tasting menu and every plate looked like art. The vibe inside is chill but classy, not too loud. Service was fine, though we waited a bit between courses. Not cheap but I left full and happy. Would come back if I&#39;m in the area again.

The gelato was a nice way to end the meal, and the place has that lively Italian feel. Service was polite, though the seating felt a bit cramped.

The chicken schnitzel was really good, tender and juicy. Chocolate fondant hit the spot too. The cellar vibe is cozy, though it got a bit warm sitting there.

The mojitos here are pretty good. Got the large one with real fruit in it, 7-8&euro; which felt fair. Just make sure you specify the size when you order, otherwise they might bring the smaller one. Decent spot for a casual drink.

Great spot to hang out with friends, the sand pit outside is fun even for adults 😄 Staff were nice and prices didn&rsquo;t hurt. Just wish they had a bit more shade.

Stopped by for a quick dinner and honestly, the food was hit or miss. One dish was solid, the other felt like it sat around a bit. Drinks were fine, decent pour for the price. Place has a good buzz though, easy spot to hang out. Not sure I&#39;d rush back for the food alone, but it works if you&#39;re already in the area.

Been coming here on and off for a while now. The salmon soup is still solid, and the terrace view over Town Hall Square never gets old. Lunch set at 10 euros is fair for what you get. Grilled meat was decent too, though the place gets busy around noon.

The cheese roll with olives and sun-dried tomatoes was really good. Fair price for the quality too. I&#39;d grab one again if I&#39;m in the area.

The truffle pizza really stood out &mdash; earthy, not too greasy, just right. I&rsquo;m not even vegan but their vegan options caught my eye. Staff were friendly without hovering. Only thing is it got a bit loud by the window. Still, I&rsquo;d sit there again for the light.

The sushi here is genuinely fresh &mdash; melt-in-your-mouth kind of quality. I tried their miso soup too, which was light and comforting. The wasabi was freshly grated, which I don&#39;t see often. Place was quiet for a weekday lunch, so it felt pretty relaxed. Just wish the portions were slightly bigger for the price.

Decent place for a casual dinner. Got the pasta and it was pretty good, not mind-blowing but solid. Prices are fair for what you get. Service was fine, nothing to complain about. Maybe a bit busy on a Friday night, but we managed. Would come back if in the area.

Lunch specials are pretty reasonable here, and the lakeside spot is nice. Pasta came out a bit too soft for me, but the salad was fresh enough. Coffee drinks are cheap too. I sat near the window and the light was lovely, though the chairs could be more comfortable. Fine for a quick bite if you&#39;re in the area.
