Visit begins with reception and unfortunately we felt unwelcome. We were already standing with coats in hand but the persons entering after us were served before. Even more, then the lady ran to check our booking and we were left standing even longer. Mood was somewhat destroyed already. The restaurant serves only long tasting menus for ca 60 and 70 euros and you need all these courses. We were trying 3 course offering during the restaurant week and we stayed hungry. The starter, celery was very nice - different aspects of it, delicious and exiting with very nice sauce. After that we were served 2 different breads which were also nice - very fresh and delicate. The main dish lamb was not bad but the accompanying consommé like sauce was too sweet and killed a bit the other tastes. The dessert was served with nice show but itself was dull, nothing exiting. From red wines only two Italian-ones were served by glass. Nowadays there should b much more possibilities to take only 1 glass of wine. All those on their menu were definitely not so extraordinary. All in all did not exceed expectations. Food is not bad but not inviting back.

Jussi Olletuba is probably one of the oldest restaurant/bars in Viimsi. Been there for hundreds of times. It's always there and always a nice place to go to if you just wanna have cheap bite to eat and something to drink and have place to talk to your friend this place is it. It's nothing fancy but also nothing bad about it. It feels cozy in thereand you feel like you have traveled back in time a little bit. In the summer time they have nice area outside also.

We stayed at the Telegraaf Hotel, so thought we would try out the highly rated restaurant on the premises, the Tchaikovsky. It is neatly designed in one of the areas where the old and new parts of the hotel originally met.
We were not disappointed - we had absolutely superb service from the wait staff, and the food was delicious (far better Russian food than the food we had had in St Petersburg the week before). Well cooked food, a nice variety on the menu, a good range of wines, and excellent service. Its a fairly fancy restaurant which might put some off, and it wasn't cheap, but we thought it was an excellent experience!

We booked Dominic because high place in Tripadvisor.
I am afraid that I am not going to visit again.
Table at 20.00, we waited food almost 2 hours. Our waiter was such a lovely guy (and a real professional) but it did not save our night in this place. Food was ok- lamb stake was good even tho it was medium plus, not medium minus what we ordered. The riesling Haart by Haart was one of the best I have ever tasted. High recommendation for that.
Piano player was also good.
I think that this place needs a lift up and it will be great. Not that trendy at the moment. Biggest minus because of the waiting.

15 minutes drive from Tallinn center to Viimsi district on a shore the restaurant is located.
A team of very friendly staff welcomes you. We especially liked Ilona.
The menu is not broad, anyway there is enough dishes.
The restaurant has a terrific Terrace with large windows on the sea and sitting inside the clients can enjoy the view.
Very tasty grilled fish: dorada, seabass.
The portions are big.
There is a small place for kids to play. Next to the Paat the museum of village life is situated.
If you want to have either lunch or dinner on the shore it is very convenient place.
I do recommend.

Went for Valentines dinner. Very nice atmosphere! We enjoyed our evening. The services was excellent - albeit the place was busy, so the wait staff was kept running. So the lack of attention was expected and we didn't mind. But order taken quickly, food arrived fast and hot. We did have to wave down the waitress to get the check, but not a long delay. Very common practice for Europe though.
Overall we had a lovely evening and will definitely return again. We've been told they have the best pizza in town, we will have to go back and try it. We had lasagna - OK, not the best I've had but still good. Along with pork fillet - which my partner said was fantastic!

Restoran Moon is a nondescript looking restaurant in a nondescript area of Tallinn, near the Viking Line Harbour, just north of the Old Town. I went there for lunch on the way to Patarei Prison and the Lennusadam maritime museum. It was definitely worth the walk.
We had two pasties as appetisers (one meat, one fish, both very tasty), then shared fresh, hot buckwheat blinis with sour cream, lumpfish caviar, red onion and dill, and goats cheese millefeuille. The goats cheese dish was perfectly nice but the blinis were absolutely superb, as good as anything I've eaten in London recently, and are highly recommended. For mains we had a modern take on Chicken Kiev, which came with a rich, buttery potato puree, and Salmon 'Napoleon', which was wrapped in cabbage and came with a variety of delicious accompaniments. Both were very good. Complimentary fresh bread accompanied both courses.
The staff were friendly and spoke excellent English. The final bill was €84 (pre-tip) for appetisers, two courses each, four glasses of wine and two beers. For the high quality, I thought this was very reasonable. Moon is definitely worth a visit while you're in Tallinn.

China Red is a little Chinese restaurant opened in Viimsi in 2007. Our aim is to cook healthy chinese food from fresh ingredients, with no MSG added. We also offer take-away!

I was there with 3 friends this summer. Portions are big, but not delicious. Far away from the chinese food i tasted in other chinese restaurants. If you want to eat cheap and a lot, it`s good place. But if you want to enjoy what you eat, i would never recommend going there.
