Tallinn | Restaurants & Cafes | Carnivore

Imagine a huge, mirrored ball and a keyboardist playing a deafening rendition of Elton John's 'Nikita' to an empty room. Otherwise this might be a worthy place, with date palms adding a quasi-Egyptian touch. The food at the self-proclaimed 'grill house' is a& [...]

A huge step up from the typical throw-the-pork-on-the-fire grill house, Daube is a roomy, two-floor affair decorated in a warm style that's the very definition of 'smart casual'. Expect smiling service and happy tastebuds. Find it in a nicely redone little house just off Harju tänav. [...]

Open:
12:00 - 23:00

The sign outside offering 'pippuripihvi + olut' (Finnish for 'peppersteak and beer') tells you all you need to know about Kuluaar's target market. This modern - and eerily spartan - cellar venue cooks up a small selection of typical meat and fish dishes. Service is fast and food is actually pretty good, but if you do decide to eat here we suggest you do so during the patio season. [...]

The Steakhouse’s odd location inside the Soviet-era Central Post Office building and its early nineties décor leaves a little to be desired, regardless of the fact that they have quite an extensive menu loaded with beef. The food, which reminded us more of a glorified pub meal is no [...]

The name rhymes with Radisson, as in Radisson SAS, the towering hotel to which this two-storey grill-bar is attached. Gigantic windows, slick design and TVs tuned to satellite channels give it that familiar international feel. In addition to pricier items from the gril [...]

Overtly geared toward tourists, the Monk's Cellar is essentially a basement bar turned upscale by the clever use of table linen and glasses. Meat and fish dishes are served up along with awful, saxophone versions of 70s hits. The salmon in foil was mediocre and the service indifferent. [...]

Open:
11:00 - 23:00

A diligent, carved wooden waiter spends all day long on Viru tänav trying to entice people into this cellar restaurant, where meaty items like entrecote and steak dominate the menu. Other choices such as a vegetable wok are available to the less protein inclined. We've heard a few good reviews about the food and service as of late and the kids play area and eight-page children's menu certainly make this a good stop for families.

Viru 3

Open:

With its enviable location right on Old Town’s main square, Revalia is never wanting for customers. The interior décor makes it look a bit like an art shop, but there’s no mistaking the menu - tenderloin steaks and other grill items of the type that are popular around this par [...]
