The restaurant is a short walk from the town's main street and offers a scenic outside deck with a menu for light meals and refreshments. A buffet is also available inside, and you can bring the food out to the deck. It made for a nice hour break to sit down, enjoy the river views, have their delightful cold pea and bacon soup, sip on a latte and enjoy a Malmgard draft beer while in Porvoo.

We (4 adults + 1 teen) wanted to have a lunch outside because weather was very good and therefore we chose this restaurant. We checked a buffet table and it was very flat - ONLY a herring (as a starter) made in different ways and ONLY salmon soup as a main course. What a joke!
We chose food from A'la Carte list and it was very average

This restaurant is located by the Porvoo river in an old storehouse where salt, among others has been stored at the time when trading it was a big business.
The interiors of the facility are different but cosy and stylish. There is a traditional buffet served daily and on the a la carte list you can find something to suit every taste.
The place is mid-priced but the food was well worth the price. Our waiter was excellent, a young man with a good background knowledge about the place itself and also the offerings on the menu. The restaurant was full at the time we came and we were warned about a lengthy wait for the main courses but things turned out to work faster than expected.
There is nice terrace outside to enjoy food and drinks when the weather permits.
Overall, nice location, a different restaurant, good food and friendly service.

The lunch buffet is lame, most of the options don't seem fresh. In fact they seem like just jars of fish.
On the other hand the salmon soup was good and the place is really beautiful.
My suggestion would be to add some kind of warm dish and have a small dessert.

We had dinner inside the restaurant as it was a bit cold outside. The atmosphere is rusty and warm. The service was a bit slow although the restaurant wasn't full. I had the chicken breast and it was good. My son got the burger and he liked it but we thought it was way too expensive (20 Euro). My partner had the steak fillet which was only ok. we'll try a different restaurant for dinner next time in Porvoo.
