Over priced food and smaller dish than earlier

Ate Pomodoro pasta with zuccini spirals as pasta. Didn't see the sauce in my pasta or there was so little it in.

Slow service, dish was good taste but pretty smaller than used to be. My friend dish with regular pasta was bigger( almost twice as size).

Would try zuccini spirals at home too.

Plenty of options

They have a vegan section of their menu with salads, pastas and pizzas. I went with the No Chicken Pasta dish and found it pretty tasty. I particularly liked that you can add extra ingredients - albeit at an additional cost - including tofu. I added mushrooms and tofu to mine and whilst it wound up a little pricey it was super filling and kept me going all day. Overall, I wouldn't say it was outstanding but decent if you're in the area

Rubbery meat substitutes

The concept of the restaurant with the QR code menu order, pay and fetch from the counter (ie. no real service) should be revised.

The food itself is kinda passable but not for the price point. We had the vegan no chicken pasta and a tomato pasta with tofu. The latter was ok but the non-chicken was very rubbery and tasted like... Well, plastic.

Improving the vegan dishes would greatly benefit this joint. The messages you get when you can get your food are translated into hilariously bad Finnish. Maybe keep that and just improve the service.

Slow service and mediocre pizza

Pizza selection was poor for a vegan. Delivery took a long time and food was not hot when it arrived. The salad was good though. Maybe pasta would have been a better choice.
Ordering and Paying is easy through a qr code system.

Vegan options

Uodated their menu about 1 year ago to include more vegan options. It might not be the most authentic Italian food but I really enjoyed the salame pizza and chocolate cake. Cake might not be vegan anymore according to their updated menu now.

You have to order at the different counters for pizza or pasta an there was a long queue at the pasta counter that didn't seem to clear up. The pizza was served quickly though.

Pretentious fast food

Chain trying to navigate the market between massified fast food and mid-priced restaurants: you get the worst of both worlds.

I tried to order a vegan dish and the staff was not ready to prepare it. It was supposed to be a chickpeas dish but I got a sort of lettuce salad with no chickpeas at all, until I asked to add at least some. The staff does their best but they got a very bad hand here.

Suitable if you like their concept of self-service (you queue in front of your cook and watch them prepare your food on the spot) or if you're just desperate to sit down and eat something warm before catching a train. Otherwise, you can get more tasty equivalents from the salad buffet at the k-supermarket or s-market on the other side of the railway station.

Pros: Very near to the railway station, Easy for groups to fit in, Carnivores and beer drinkers seem to like it

Cons: Inexperienced, probably underpaid/overworked staff, Vegetables are not their thing, Confusing layout and long waits while standing
