2. 180° by Matthias Diether (Tallinn, Noblessneri kvartal)

Another gem in the Noblessner harbour district. 180° offers guests a refined experience and impeccable attention to detail.

3. La Bottega (Tallinn, Vanalinn)
Atmosphere: Cosy and authentically Italian.
Recognition: Consistently high ratings for its atmosphere and cuisine.
If you are looking for something more classic and cosy, La Bottega is the ideal choice. This small Italian restaurant, tucked away on a quiet street in Vanalinn, captivates at first sight. Candles on the tables, brick walls, an extensive wine list, and the aromas of authentic Italian cuisine create an incredibly warm and romantic atmosphere.
Ideal for: a classic romantic date with heartfelt conversations and delicious food.
What to know: Due to the limited space, it is advisable to reserve a table, especially on weekends.
Otse Haabneeme rannas asuv OKO pakub küll veidi vabama, kuid mitte vähem romantilise atmosfääri. See on ideaalne koht päikeseloojangu nautimiseks vaatega Tallinna lahele. Menüüs on rõhk kvaliteetsel kohalikul toorainel ja elaval tulel valmistatud roogadel. Suvel on avatud suur terrass, kus saab õhtustada lainete mühinat kuulates.
Ideaalne: suviseks romantiliseks õhtusöögiks päikeseloojangul, kohtinguks stiilis “šikk rannas”.
Good to know: Especially popular during the warmer months; it is worth booking a table on the terrace well in advance.
5. Paju Villa (Tallinn, Nõmme)
Atmosphere: The elegance of a private residence.
Tunnustus: Michelini giidi äramärkimine.
See restoran asub kaunis renoveeritud ajaloolises villas rohelises ja vaikses Nõmme linnaosas. Elegantne interjöör, kamin, vaikne muusika ja vaade hoolitsetud aiale loovad tunde, nagu oleksite õhtusöögil privaatses maamajas. Menüü on kaasaegne ja peen ning teenindus tähelepanelik ja diskreetne.
Ideaalne: rahulikuks ja eraldatud õhtusöögiks eemal linnakärast.
Good to know: An excellent choice for those who want to escape the noise of the city centre without travelling too far.
