We had a great meal here even though the service was a bit spotty. We tried the bear dumplings which were interesting but not our favorite course. My girlfriend had the "Russian pot pie" which was soulful and melt in your mouth good. I had the smoked duck wrapped in beef and it was a true delight. It's right on... More

What a pleasant surprise to find this Gemon the main square in Tallinn. Great service, stunning food and Thought it would be just expensive & touristy, but couldn't have been more wrong. Cost was 70 Euro for shared platter starter, main each, bottle of wine and couple of large vodkas...great value

The food at Troika is just excellent. We started (typically) with a vodka shot and some pickles. We then ordered pelmeni with mushroom sauce (home made dumplings) and they were beautiful. A MUST. Some chicken kiev to share and chocolate dessert made the night. Total of 60€ with 2 8cl vodka shots, 2 4cl ones and 2 beers. Be careful... More

We landed here by chance and got a very nice surprise. Really effective service, great food and decent portions. It is beautifully decorated in the inside and there was live traditional music. Great experience, I would go again.

The Tripadvisor forum local experts all advise avoiding the restaurants around the town square, but we went because the restaurant had been personally recommended by friends who know Tallinn and we regretted it almost from the moment we walked through the door. The 'authentic' Russian experience began with the surly coat-check man in a red satin fancy-dress version of a... More

Always busy - book a table ahead! And always fun and good. We love the Russian live music, the dancers, the food and not at least the way the vodka is poured in your glasses from half a metre / over a feet high. In sommer nice terrace outside, but the basement restaurant is always enjoyable. Personel is nice and... More

The food in Troika was ok, tasted good but it was't the huge dining experience I was hoping for. Chicken Kiev was good, Chocolate suprise on the other hand was just a normal mud cake. Our waiter wasn't having the best of days. We had to wait 20 min. for the drinks to arrive and even then we didnt get... More

If you're just visiting Tallinn, visit Troika, it is a fun place with tasty food and you won't regret going. We take a lot of visitors to Troika and most end up saying it was their favourite meal in Tallinn. Don't get me wrong- it is definitely not the best food in Tallinn- but that is because Tallinn has a... More
