Best International food near Turku, Southwest Finland, Finland
Discover Restaurants offering the best International food in Turku, Southwest Finland, Finland. Turku (Finnish pronunciation: [ˈturku] ( listen); Swedish: Åbo [ˈoːbʊ] ( listen)) is a city on the southwest coast of Finland at the mouth of the Aura River, in the region of Southwest Finland. Turku, as a town, was settled during the 13th century and founded most likely at the end of the 13th century, making it the oldest city in Finland. It quickly became the most important city in Finland, a status it retained for hundreds of years. After Finland became part of the Russian Empire (1809) and the capital of the Grand Duchy of Finland was moved to Helsinki (1812), Turku continued to be the most populous city in Finland until the end of the 1840s, and it remains a regional capital and an important business and cultural center.

Over the years Brahen Kellari seems to have maintained its standards and thereby it's popularity among patrons. We visited the restaurant for dinner and was again presented with an excellent meal, a good bottle of wine and an efficient, discreet and friendly service. The reindeer starter was delicious, the fish main course cooked to perfection and what rounded off the meal so delightfully was a well made Irish coffee. Without a doubt this visit was a very pleasant occasion and providing the quality of the food and service remains high I will be back on many more occasions.

Hus Lindman is an inconspicuous establishment that resides behind Turku Cathedral and overlooks the Aura River. Inside this unpretentious building diners are offered a lunchtime extravaganza of a quality cold (typically Scandinavian) buffet together with a set menu for hot food with coffee and a large selection of desserts. The staff are well appointed, very efficient and conduct their business in a discreet and professional manner. The interior too is clean and elegant with a neutral decor that presents a calm and relaxing environment. This is most certainly a venue for anyone on a limited budget who wants only the very best but be forewarned that lunch menus are only served Monday-Friday

Interesting concept. Edgar Allen Poe circus theme. Mid to expensive prices. Free popcorn though. Ordering off their app is novel. Still would prefer a waiter. Self serve. Order via app, then you pick up your drinks or food. Make sure your phone is charged because they send you an sms when they prepare and then when to pick up your order. Itâs all tapas. Tasty small potions. Weird thing, everything I ordered came doubled. Except the drinks. Maybe it was intentional but we needed doggie bags. Most of the food was tasty. The natural burger or slider Is kid size. But we got like 4, only ordered 2. The potstickers were good. Ordered 2 got four, Cheese pasta, weird taste. Maybe it appeals to the Finnish taste bud. Over cooked and not what I expected. It came in a Cute little frying pan. Iâm sure the pan is a hot item for theft. Great for a Betty Crocker stove. Tried the Korean ribs. Tender, but no taste. Maybe suited for kids palet. Teriyaki chicken and skewers were good. Also the tiny expensive desserts were good. Specially the brownie ice cream and the crème brûle. Got 4 also. With the upgrades in portions, it all seemed fair. Maybe thatâs on purpose. I was happy.Itâs either a kids place, or perfect after a round of THC consumables. They do have adult beverages. Pricey but in line with other restaurants. Did drop 80 euro for 4 people, including 12 year old highland scotch and youâll need one. They also serve Laphroigs which surprised me. Beer too. No doubles there! But after all was said and done I got an sms that I scored 3 more tapas on my next visit! They hook you. Now I have to go back. The kids beverages are walking sugar factories. And they are basically mason jars of ice with a dash of colorful syrup and sour patch candy. Just order them coke or water. Kids love the place and thatâs really all the matter$, right.

This is the old jail with very thick walls and small windows. Rambling rooms, but still cosy. The outside patio is nice. We had the small lunch, which was really enough. Excellent salmontartar, new season potatoes in butter and dill, fried white and green asparagus, homemaid warm bread with three dippings. Sirloin steak cut in peaces with herbs. The grilled food is made in an open fire grill outside, which adds to the flavour. Everything was very good, though on the expensive side.

The indoors are quite a small space so it is fairly tight, especially for the staff who seemed to struggle just a little when serving customers. There is also a lovely outdoors area but only for dry weather. Food was altogether very good ( maybe the pizza was not quite as superb as expected but very ok). The Korean buns were so delicious that you easily overeat, the portion could easily feed two.

Central location between marketplace and riverfront. Interior quite basic(except grand piano!) and really short menu. We took a 5 course tasting menu, which was "built" from that menu(Black Angus Picanha was our main). Service was really friendly and we had a nice dinner. They use lots of Finnish ingredients and especially cheeses and blueberry themed dessert were great. No "surprises"/amuse bouche's from kitchen, but still 55â¬/person was reasonable for all that.
