Havis – Classy seafood

Helsinki downtown has two fish restaurants, Fishmarket and Havis. I have visited them both and cannot really say which one is better — both shine in different areas.

Havis has excellent location near the old market hall. Ask to get a street view table to enjoy watching people passing by while savouring the food. You can also dine outside when the weather is nice, but the patio has no views whatsoever.

There is only fish, seafood and vegetarian dishes available. The food is good and the portions are largish. The service is very snappy, we did not have to wait too long for anything, and even the bill was handled promptly.

Consider reserving a table beforehand, as Havis was fully booked also during a quiet Sunday evening.
