Savoy

Restaurant Savoy – Iconic design and a piece of history above the Esplanade

If you want to experience a very classic piece of Helsinki, set your destination to Restaurant Savoy at the edge of the Esplanade park. This spot is more than just a restaurant – it’s a living part of the city’s history and design scene, with an interior originally created by famous finnish designers Alvar and Aino Aalto back in 1937.

The vibe here is genuinely chill combined with a high class service. The team looks after you with the kind of easygoing professionalism that instantly puts you at ease. Not to forget the beautiful views straight over the park and the rooftops of Helsinki.

They respect the classics in the kitchen but love to bring something modern and fresh to the plate using the best seasonal ingredients. The flavors are clean and well-crafted plus the wine list has some great finds to round out the meal.

Savoy is the perfect find when you want to celebrate a special moment, enjoy a long, unhurried lunch, or simply experience a true Helsinki institution in a stunning setting.

What recommends: Savoy is a great choice when you want to combine high-quality dining with a touch of Finnish design history. If you visit during the summer, definitely make sure to spend a moment out on the terrace – the views over the park from up there are well worth it.
