I cannot fault the food , but this is let down by the severe lack of experience with staff waiting the tables. When the wine ordered was out of stock a bottle at double the price was recommended as an alternative. One of the main courses was served up with something completely different on the plate and the salad ordered that was confirmed twice was incomplete. When asking to speak to the manager about this, instead of sitting down and listening and offering at least an apology he became very aggresive to the point where he physically pushed my partner as he would take no critisicm even to better his restaurant. Great chef,but let down by bad waiting and appalling management." | | |

on Jan.02.2010 | "Well, may be it is the oldest, however history did not pave the way to maturity...
The key word in our description would be "Bad"
First of all there was no any sign of the Chinese presence, either among waiters or among the chefs.
It was rather Russian-Estonian version of the Chinese food...Bamboo shoots were unsuccessfully substituted by fried ...fresh cucumbers and frozen beans from the nearest supermarket. This was called "Beef with vegetables" - recommend to avoid it... Rise was not cooked properly as well, it was almost impossible to eat it with chopsticks.
Second, it was bloody cold inside (we were there in the beginning of January) and local staff, knowing that problem very well, offered us personal heater when we already put on our winter coats while at the table.
Next negative surprise was cutlery: steel European knives, forks and spoons, absence of traditional Chinese souses on the table and so on.
To crown negative impressions - together with the bill the waiter brought us the news: credits cards terminal was out of order, at least for the last 3 attempts, and advised us to round the corners for the nearest ATM (however, on my insisting to try the terminal it appeared to work OK)
Conclusion: if you are in nice mood inspired by the views of the city, or you love Chinese cousin - DO NOT GO TO THIS RESTAURANT...

I did not receive the main course I ordered and our main courses arrived at the whilst we were still eating our starters. On the next table they were totally furious. They had waited for an hour and had been brought the wrong food three times in the end half of them didn't eat anything. I decided not to pay a tip but when I tried to pay the bill it transpired that whatever I didn't pay for (including the 10% mandatory service charge) the waiter would have to pay from his own pocket and he would not receive the service charge anyway. So, in the end I paid the service charge but I feel very sorry for the poor way they treat their staff and I won't be going back." | | |

on Dec.09.2009 | "I think over-rated. Whilst the candle light is atmospheric it hides what is on the plate. Most things come served with spelt and there is a reason this was last poplular in medival times. Service at the door was great we were seated quickly without reservations but the service during the meal was some of the slowest I have ever experienced. I enjoyed the dried elk meat and the honey beer other than that I would not go back. " | | |

on Sep.29.2009 | "I really enjoyed this restaurant with its typical Estonian food (even if I was surprised that it was served with an orange, i.e. with a non-Estonian food).
The staff was very kind and helpful, he also supplied me and my friends with information about the Estonian history and culture.
I would definitely like to come back again " | | |

I would suggest that you try to make a reservation in order to find a seat. I tried rabbit, elk and wild boar with honey beer. Definately worth seeing, although food could be better. " | | |
