Every restaurant I've tried in Helsinki

17.03.2023

‼️ I stopped ratings restaurants since I realized that I don't really enjoy rating stuff

I recently moved to Helsinki. I love trying out new restaurants and foods, so I'm trying to try out a new place once a week regularly. Here are my quick thoughts on them (list keeps getting updated).

I use the x/5 system, here are brief examples of what my ratings could mean. Food, atmosphere, customer service and everything else affects the rating.

Rating	Explanation
🌑🌑🌑🌑🌑	Fuck this place.
🌕🌑🌑🌑🌑	I'd rather eat fried eggs at home. Bad food, bad vibes or maybe both of them.
🌕🌕🌑🌑🌑	It was somewhat enjoyable, but not really worth the money. Probably wouldn't visit again.
🌕🌕🌕🌑🌑	I enjoyed it, but nothing too special. Lacks in food quality or some other aspect.
🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑	Very great place, would gladly visit again.
🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕	S-tier. No complaints, the food was just otherworldly.

Dates are in dd.MM.yyyy format

Handmande noodles
Superb food, immediately one of my favorite places I've ever eaten in
I recommend the A3. DANDAN SPICY NOODLES

Lopez y Lopez 🌕🌕🌗🌑🌑

Taquerias, which I hadn't eaten before so nothing to compare to
Mexican-style place, good vibes
The food wasn't my favorite but it was enjoyable
Sauces were good
Servings could have been bigger, left me a bit hungry

Japanese style tiny restaurant
Liked the food but nothing too special
4 stars if it had regular lunch prices (11,90€)

Classic Pizza Restaurant 🌕🌕🌑🌑🌑

Visited 22.3.2023, Sello
Ordered pepperoni pizza
The place was vibes but the food was really really mid
Had to wait way too long before staff came to ask what we'll be ordering
If you want regular quality pizza just go to Kotipizza

Via Tribunali 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

Best Neapolitan pizza I've eaten in Finland (haven't eaten them a lot)
Overall good vibes and great food
Pizza was 2€ more expensive than in Classic Pizza Restaurant (see review above this) but 20x better

La Torrefazione 🌕🌕🌑🌑🌑

Visited 5.4.2023, Sello
Most mid Pasta Bolognese I've eaten
The place was otherwise clean and good vibes

Saburo Shokudou 🌕🌗🌑🌑🌑

Visited 6.4.2023
This one had good ratings so I had high expectations
Food didn't taste too good, just... bland
There were lots of locals so probably a good place if you can appreciate authentic Japanese food or something 🤷‍♂️

Sizzle Station 🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑

Visited 12.4.2023, Sello
First time eating sizzle food, really enjoyed it. Spicy enough
They had room tempreature water cans which I loved
Lunch time until 3pm which is just great

I generally dislike wings so I'm not the best one to review this place :D
