Things to do in Tornio
I have eaten many times in this pizzeria. High quality pizzas and salads are the trademark of this place. When you eat here pizza is like any gourmet meal and not a heavily with cheese and other ingredients overstuffed pizza. After you have eaten your stomach feels just happy and you donât feel like you are just dying for overeating as many times in a pizzeria. The atmosphere is also very cozy. Do visit this reataurant if you have a chance!

On our way to Lapland we stopped in Tornio and found restaurant Aino (at Park Hotel Tornio) which had opened again after renovation. And I must say it was one of the best decision and pit-stops after long time. Restaurant had nice atmosphere with combination of warm colors, real wood and brown leather making great interior design.Well, to our dinging experience. For starters we ordered fried crayfish and tapas plate. Wasabi sauce gives really good and bit spicy flavor for the crayfish...yum. Tapas platter consists of marinated mushroom, nice chorizo, crayfish and house bread. I liked especially those mushroom in combination with chorizo. Only thing I would improve is to add more "color" e.g. tomatoes, pepper in to fried crayfish side salad...I ordered filet mignon with blue cheese coat and must say it was one of the best steaks I've had in Finland for a long time. Meat was tender and taste excellent. To me portion was a bit too big even with all side potatoes and veggies. My wife had had an excellent burger A'la Aino which included nice twist provided by goat cheese and apple jam combination. Both course are highly recommended.Against our original plan we decided to finish with desserts...chocolate cake (baked at restaurant BTW) and house ice cream. Great finish for sure, I could have eaten another ice cream scoop as well but it was time to continue our travel. In addition to the fantastic food service was top notch as well. Our waitress (Sanna if I recall) did good job for sure. Thank you.Price point was very reasonable vs quality of food and place is relaxed and suitable for families as well.
Mario's pizzeria is in the Tornio city center area and they have good selection of pizzas and kebabs. Taste is just average.

Warning*****Stay away***Warning*****Stay away***Warning*****Stay awayTried to eat there... I mean we wanted to. This is on Swedish side , just by the Finnish border. The " cook " could not speak Swedish or Finnish.... English was very poor. Mumbled something to himself in Arabic after trying to place an order....With a very very confused look on his face , and checking the menu.....even for a Pizza Margherita ! we cancelled the order walked out...if a Pizza chef does not know what is on a Margherita...what hope do we have of getting an order right ! Warning*****Stay away: repeat : STAY AWAY This was 100% understandable now, after this place was NOT on Trip Advisor...was on a bunch of local eating guides...
