Well, we got new dishes but..... french fries and salad was the same from the first dishes and steaks was now dry and not that good. Usually ”Frans Amelie” restaurants has delisious food but not this one.
Frans Amelie is easy to, not far away from railway station or Cathedral. We were there on a Friday evening, late afternoon. The staff was friendly, perhaps too few, the food was also good and tasty. They had a happy hour until 6 pm with wines to a reasonable price. Might be wise to book a table at least on weekends.
On my first trip to Helsinki, Frans Amelie was the first restaurant I went to in Finland. I was absolutely positively surprised. Nice surroundings, cozy ambience. My colleague went for the menu Marseille, consisting of King Prawn Tails and deep fried squid with sauce Rouille, followed by Grilled Salmon with chanterelle sauce and country style potato wedges. Dessert was a very good cloudberry crème brûlée. My starter was also the King Prawn Tails and deep fried squid with sauce Rouille, followed by the chicken stuffed with chorizo and pepper sauce, bacon beans and Mac Cheese, a most tasty dish, that I would recommend any time again and again. My dessert was the Café Gourmand Valrhona, composed of a cup of espresso, chocolate-nut cookie, a miniature crème brûlée and chocolate mousse, ice cream and raspberry sauce. Our wine taste was not on the list, so we went for a bottle of Wolfberger Crémant d'Alsace brut, and were very satisfied with our choice. All told, a superb dining location downtown Helsinki. And, not to forget, the service was super friendly, competent and always at hand, when called for. Remarkable!
Overall: 3+ Comments: nicely presented and tasty food, but a bit dry, could have been warmer, accompanied by a slow service, except for serving the food, that came surprisingly fast, as if it was waiting for us. Reservation: 4 Location: 4 Menu: 4 Knowledge: 3-4 Originality: 3 Presentation: 3-4 Taste: 3-4 Wine/beers: 3-4 Atmosphere: 3-4 Service: 3 Timing: 2-4 Cleanliness: 3-4 Price: 3 Price/value: 3 Revisit: maybe
We sat on terrace and waited a while but no one didn't come to serve us so i went inside and asked that is there a service available. Few minutes later waitress came. She did not apologies the waiting but otherwise she was nice. We both ordered sparkling wine and veal lever. Wine was ok and our food came pretty fast. We ordered lever as medium cooking level but it was fully coocked. Peppersauce was pretty good but too salty. Smashed potatoes felt like that it was made yesterday. Overall experience was ok but i don't think that i will visit here again because we did not got service without asking it.
