Pure Bistro

It was a company’s dinner and dining here is definitely a good choice. Around 20 of us were there and we had a choice of an appetiser, main course and dessert. I can’t remember what I had for appetiser, but I know I had the steak and a delicious Finnish dessert ‘Ash” consists of chocolate which melts your mouth instantly — excellent dessert! The steak’s portion may be small but it was satisfying for my poor stomach which had to endure many hours without food!
The ambience is suitable for large group even though the place is small. Its a typical Finnish feeling when I first stepped into the restuarant, served by local staff who spoke excellent English.
I would definitely return back here to try their other dishes.

Went here with a large group from work. The food was very good. I ordered both a seafood appetizer and entrée. The service was very attentive and the dining room comfortable and clean. I’d return.

Pure Bistro appears to be aiming to be some sort of a modern Finnish bistro with a clear Nordic flavor to both food and interior design. The place does however not fully deliver it is a bit boring and the strong light from the lamps gives it a sterile feel.
The service is also sort of a mixed bag. The guy that greeted us appeared as if he wanted to be anywhere but there. No interest in the customer and just made us feel unwelcome. The contrast with the other person serving us was just huge — he was attentive, gave great advice on wine and food. Also made sure to be proactive and was always there when we wanted service.
The food was a bit up and down. The cold-​cuts and cheeses were great, excellent value and great flavor while the beef tartar was a total disappointment. Lacked all flavor and was just dull. Same thing with the mains, one; the venison was excellent while the chanterelle risotto was just dull and did not really seem like a proper dish. So a bit up and down but still worth a visit and will perhaps give them another chance.
