Brilliant pizzas, we were seated straight away and the service was prompt and cheerful! Highly recommended!
Delicious pizza by the water. On this rainy day, we took a chance and went there without a booking, but usually a booking in advance is definitely necessary.
A lovely place, right by the lake. Good food and service. We went there with the family for a pizza. I’d recommend it.
The pizzas were absolutely delicious. I particularly enjoyed the Salami 2.0 I had. The toppings were of the very highest quality. I was especially surprised by the tomatoes, which seemed to have been semi-dried or something similar. The base was, of course, excellent, as it was cooked in a proper oven. I think the base should have a bit of ash and charcoal in it; it adds a lovely extra flavour to the pizza. We ate outside, with a view of the lake on both sides. The pizzas arrived quickly and everything else was spot on. Service at the counter was a bit chaotic, but perhaps there were some new staff on duty. They’d thought of the kids too, as the menu included a classic chicken basket (which, by the way, got two thumbs up from the boys).
A brilliant place with brilliant pizzas. It really lives up to its reputation! 🙂 I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!
Amazing pizzas, fantastic service and friendly staff! I can’t wait to visit again very soon!
Really good pizza and other dishes. Even though the restaurant was full of guests, the food arrived quickly. The local drinks were tasty. Stunning scenery.
We had some absolutely delicious pizzas today. Quick, good service. THANK YOU ❤️
Excellent pizzas and a delicious tiramisu for dessert. The service was friendly, and we didn’t have to wait long for our food. Lovely lake views. Even a light shower didn’t spoil our meal on the covered terrace. A brilliant place!
Great service, a lovely atmosphere, and I had one of the best pizzas of my life. The tomato sauce on the pizza was absolutely brilliant. And the pistachio ice cream was really good.
An absolutely amazing homemade gluten-free pizza base and brilliant service! A must-visit every summer.😍
A truly lovely place. The atmosphere is relaxed and the service friendly. The coach service between Joensuu, Ylämylly and Liperi is also very well organised. The food is delicious and there’s a wide variety of artists to suit all tastes.
A brilliant first experience! Plenty of vegan options on the pizzas; the vegan pistachio ice cream was lovely. The customer service was also really friendly, and it’s a neat and atmospheric place. Lots of non-alcoholic drinks on offer. We’ll definitely be back!
Thank you, the pizzas were absolutely top-notch. It was lovely that there were speciality pizzas – the sort you can’t get anywhere else. The service was cheerful and professional ❤️ It’s a real pleasure to visit a place like this. Highly recommended. ❤️
Excellent pizzas and starter salads. It’s worth booking a table in advance. We did just that, and our meal went smoothly and on schedule.
The best pizza you could possibly imagine. What a location. And what a place. Everything’s brilliant. What can you do? 😄
They advertised the best pizzas in Finland, and with good reason! The pistachio ice cream also comes highly recommended. The stunning views are a definite plus. Well worth a visit 👍
Absolutely delicious pizzas. The base is perfect, the toppings are of very good quality and the quantity is just right. Best pizza I've ever had in Finland!
We were a group of 8 for dinner. The environment was very comfortable and the staff 10+. The pizzas were excellent. Worth booking a table
We first visited this place quite by chance on the last day of the summer season before it closed until next year. And it turned out to be so pleasant, atmospheric and delicious that I put it on my list of favourites. Right on the pier, numerous seats on several terraces. Cute interior inside the cafe. Good range of thin crust pizzas and lots of juicy toppings. Salads. Variety of cold and hot drinks. Desserts with coffee. Really enjoyed it. I can safely recommend.
It's the ultimate restaurant experience. The location is a bit remote but don't be alarmed, the road is in good condition. Especially if you are coming from further away, the whole bet is recommended, i.e. evening cruise, drinks, appetizers, pizza and tiramisu on top. The pizza was just as a Naples pizza should be and the tiramisu could have been another portion. (The pizza may not have been the absolute best I've ever had, Soossi in Joensuu set the bar pretty high. However, we are talking about an authentic product and this is also reflected in other reviews.) It is indeed worth making a reservation, as there are plenty of other visitors. Go and eat.
The Lipari archipelago cruise was a great experience in addition to the pizza. Lasse, the ship's boy, was very friendly and helpful. Thank you!
Excellent pizzas. There are drinks and other things to eat. I was there at the right time without a reservation and in less than 15mins the pizzas were ready to taste.
The unique possibility to book a table and order a pizza at the same time as you arrive on time is, in my opinion, a revolutionary improvement for the restaurant industry. I have not seen this anywhere in the world, not in the US, South East Asia, India, Europe etc. In addition, the new boat dock with functioning fuel distribution and excellent clean toilet facilities are exceptional. What might be a small improvement for me would be gas or electric infrared heaters for the evenings, but I don't know if this makes economic sense.
Super good pizza and great service! Highly recommend. In high season, it's a good idea to book the pizza base in advance, easy booking via the website.
We arrived at the Archipelago Puodi by tour boat and had to look a bit to see where to catch the bigger boat (30 feet). However, it was easy to find a place for the boat. The menu was checked and Jaska&Kaljat was selected for the order. The big terrace and the nice view did not make us notice that the order was a bit long. Well, there was no hurry to get there and the staff informed us. The pizzas arrived and the pizza was exactly as I thought it would be. The crust was excellently cooked and the crust very good. The base was tasty. There were enough toppings. A little more than I thought because in Italy Less is More many times on pizzas. But the toppings were just right for my taste, not too much and not too little. Panna Cotta for dessert and Tiramisu for another. They were extremely good. Worth ordering dessert, were really good. It was nice to see that there were local microbrewery beers in the cupboard. Friendly and cheerful staff. The warm atmosphere was conveyed to the customer. There was a new pizza oven in the backyard. I wonder if it will replace the old one or add more baking capacity. We'll be back here again. Thanks to the staff for the nice service 😊👍
Visited this cosy place several times. This time by boat. Ordered pizza for the first time and it was really good, quite different from the usual pizza from the rack. The kids also liked it very much. All in all, a very cosy place.
Even if it's a long way to travel by car, it's worth the effort! Really good food and a wonderfully atmospheric place, good and friendly service.
Really good pizzas. The pre-order worked like clockwork and the order was prepared quickly, we got our food in maybe about 10 minutes. Nice looking place for people and tourists in the area. Full stars because the place worked very well for its kind.
When the product and the environment are right, it works at the end of the gravel road. Excellent pizzas👍.
