If you\u2019re heading to Saaremaa and have just arrived at Kuivastu Harbour, don\u2019t rush to put your foot down on the accelerator. Just a few kilometres along the main road, in the village of Liiva, you\u2019ll find a place that is sure to make any hungry traveller\u2019s heart beat a little faster.<\/p>\n

Muhu Toidut\u00e4nav, or Muhu Food Street, is the island\u2019s summer food oasis, where a relaxed island atmosphere meets world-class cooking and flavours from around the globe.<\/p>\n

The atmosphere is lively yet laid-back. True to Muhu\u2019s character, the furniture is imaginative and full of bright colours. Around the wooden outdoor tables, Estonian hipsters enjoying a weekend away sit comfortably alongside Finnish visitors, local residents, and families with children.<\/p>\n

Relaxed music plays in the background while the aroma of freshly baked pizza and grilled meat fills the air. Street food here is much more than fast food: the entire area is an experience worth discovering.<\/p>\n

Muhu Toidut\u00e4nav is open daily during the summer season from midday onwards. It is the perfect stop on the way to Kuressaare or a delicious highlight of a day spent exploring Muhu Island.<\/p>\n

Three favourites at Muhu Food Street<\/h2>\n

Island Burger<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is the place for gourmet burgers created by a top chef. Behind the street food restaurant is Stefan Berwanger<\/b>, a German-born former head chef of the luxurious P\u00e4daste Manor. Berwanger chose to stay on Muhu and open his own street food venue.<\/p>\n

The burgers are among the island\u2019s best, made entirely from local ingredients. The beef comes from Muhu Liha, the buns are baked by the nearby Muhu Pagarid bakery, and the vegetables are sourced from local farms.<\/p>\n

Alongside the juicy beef burger, the menu includes options such as a goat\u2019s cheese burger, chicken burger and prawn burger.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t miss the crispy Sloppy Joe fries. If you enjoy spicy food, the jalape\u00f1o and cheese version is highly recommended.<\/p>\n

Muhurito<\/strong><\/p>\n

Muhurito brings the flavours of Mexico to Muhu with its own island twist. This legendary Mexican-inspired food stand serves generously filled, fresh burritos and tacos. The secret to the flavours lies in the restaurant\u2019s own homemade sauces.<\/p>\n

The cheerful team makes every customer feel welcome. When asked how spicy you would like your meal, don\u2019t overestimate your tolerance. If you like spicy food, level 2 or 3 is usually more than enough. The hottest option, level 5, is genuinely fiery.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Meite Napoli<\/strong><\/p>\n

For authentic Italian artisan pizza, head to Meite Napoli. The pizzeria uses a traditional high-temperature stone oven, allowing pizzas to bake in just 60\u201390 seconds. The result is everything you would expect from a Neapolitan-style pizza: beautifully puffed, lightly charred crusts with a crisp base.<\/p>\n

The four-cheese pizza is especially recommended. With its high-quality melted mozzarella, it makes a perfect summer lunch enjoyed straight from the box on the terrace.<\/p>\n
