That little place, DOWN BY THE RIVER

That little place, DOWN BY THE RIVER

The newly opened River restaurant in Pirita is the ideal place to enjoy a sunny afternoon.

River Restoran boasts a fresh and seasonal menu that is sure to please. Dishes are elegantly presented and incorporate continental cuisine with a bit of Estonian flair. Try the tuna tartare, which perfectly balances the salty wakame salad and hints of sour from the dried sea buckthorn berries. The seasonal risotto was also delicious. The fresh flavour of the bright green spring asparagus came out wonderfully.

Located inside the Regatti Maja complex in Pirita, the restaurant has a simple décor both inside and out. You can enjoy a view over the harbour from inside, or sit right by the water on their beautiful dockside patio. Summer has arrived and why not enjoy it outside!
