Muru - Helsinki

Muru has become our first choice for any business related dinner, regardless if it's with clients or a celebration within the company. The price level is affordable I'm happy to spend my own money there as well. I think I've been close to 10 times in the restaurant now, and I have never left unhappy. I would recommend that you let yourself be pampered by the staff. The daily menus can't go wrong, and the wine recommendations tend to be spot on. My understanding is that they have a very wide selection of wines, so if you are interested in choosing yourself you can probably find something interesting. So why 4 stars and not 5? As someone else also wrote, although the food is superb it's not really memorable. I can probably only name 3 4 dishes out of all the dishes I have had there. I've also come to notice that some of the dishes are repeated if you go there again within 1 2 months. That's been a bit disappointing. But Muru is a superb place where you really get value for money and I definitely recommend it.

Beautiful little place in an up and coming neighborhood in Helsinki. I was there recently visiting an old friend and taking in the sites and this was the one place he said we had to go to. I was not disappointed. The atmosphere, was classy yet relaxed. It was the type of place I would take an important client but also show up on a Wednesday in flip flops and feel right at home. The service was outstanding. Our server was cool, had a good attitude and presented everything in style. I loved his wine selections as pairings but if you go and love wine, ask to see the handwritten list. It is crazy for being so far in the frozen north. The owner keeps them stacked in his office and only for those willing to ask. A super good spot with lots of character that is certainly worth a stop when you are freezing your balls off in the rugged north.

Awesome place to eat, food is delicious and the service excellent. Only downside is the dark decor, in April it's ok, but when I went there for the first time in October when the evenings are dark, it's too dark. Still, food is so good!

We enjoyed Muru’s 11-year menu, which was superb from start to finish, both visually and maly! Perhaps it would have been good if we had been able to enjoy the beginning of the champagne in peace, but the first meal came with a little bit of wine, so it was missing! Sommelier Taneli was awesome and was at the same level with us. Otherwise, the waiter who served us was either a new or a new one. Due to food and wine, there is a strong recommendation.

Nothing less than 5/5. Food made of good and delicious ingredients. The service is professional and the restaurant itself is small and attractive. We took the day off and our special diet was taken into consideration.
