A small fusion-style restaurant in Kallio

As small resurant in Kallio, we want to deliver a nice, cosy neighbourhood restaurant that offers not-too-expensive food and wines. We want to create a friendly and welcoming ambience for all our customers.

Our food philosophy is very international, and we love the fusion concept. We create our dishes using building blocks of different cuisines worldwide and seasonal ingredients from Finland and Europe. The Alley is our unconventional playground of flavours

“Season changes, so does our menu”

We focus on seasonal products, so our menu never stays the same.

Things we do best:

  • A classic old fashioned cocktail

    The foods

    We focus on modern cuisine with bold flavours, using seasonal products. We create our dishes by combining modern techniques with seasonal ingredients from Finland.

  • A key lime margarita

    The wines

    Our winelist changes seasonally with the food menu. We want to offer a selection of wines at an affordable price. We concentrate on small and local producers in Europe

  • A martini cocktail with olives

    The vibe

    We aim to be a neighborhood restaurant. Our interior has a French vintage vibe with a funky and laid-back ambiance

  • A glass of a scotch on the rocks

    The service

    We are a very small and international team with many different nationalities. We are not just workmates, we are a small family and we always try to deliver the best service to our customers

Big news! We're reopening at Fleminginkatu 8 on 18/6. Bookings are now available. Come check out our new foods & wines.
