First time visit on recommendation from Finnish colleague and Savoy lived up to the expectation, and by luck exceeded it also on some points. Chose the Chefs 4-course menu with accompanying wine, the food being well-prepared and in tune with the seasonal local produce (I've never tasted pine sprout before, and it did match the lobster starter, and even better...

Just recently had a business dinner at the Savoy. This was my first visit. Wow! Tremendous evening and meal. Was a warm evening in Helsinki, so we enjoyed their outdoor patio. We went with the Chef's menu and wine pairings. Presentation was fantastic. Each course was served and introduced by the wait staff. The food was excellent! I believe the... More

Had a dinner in Savoy early in March. A four course dinner with wines, nothing wrong, price on the high-side. But qualitywise difficult to beat if you forget the price. Very friendly service, as a small error we bought the culinary book adverised in the menu ... price should have been 35 € as adverised but 55 € was asked.... More

Lunch or dinner at the 8th floor Savoy in Springtime is a special treat..! Fabulous view combined with excellent food and top rate service! The restuarant is somewhat pricey, so it is not your regular spur of the moment eat out...but if you want to make it special, then Savoy is the place. When you reserve a table, ask to... More

We enjoyed a truly spectacular dinner at the Savoy. Very elegant and modern dishes, including reindeer, which is a must have for visitors from Western Europe. The wines are especially special and the suggested pairing was utterly great. Especially an Egon Muller Mosel wine, and a spectacular dry wine from the famous Ch. Suduiraut kept on lingering on the palate.... More

Get a table from the glass balcony and enjoy nice view over Helsinki. We had a long menu with 6 courses totally and the peanut puree served with a duck was perhaps the best puree I've ever tasted. Even though you have to pay top price at Savoy, it is worth every penny. The service and the attitude of the... More

We had a weekend dinner with family and had a previous good experience. All started well indeed. Amuse bouche, seating and starters were great. We had reindeer pastrami. For main course we had the veal pot au feu. The veal was great but the stock was far too salty. I mentioned that to our waiter, who promised to tell my... More

The Savoy is in the centre of Helsinki and offers a selection of really superb food. The interiour is classic Finnish design by Alvar Aalto. The staff is very competent and nice - really serving you well. During summer you can sit outside and have a wonderful view over the Esplanade.

We went to Savoy after reading about it in the wonderful book '1000 places to see before you die'. We went fir the a la carte menu since the tasting menu was way too expensive for us.( € 114). What we had was very nice, no complaints about the food at all. But what made me a little bit disappointed... More
