Surprise menu was a well composed package, the five course menu culminating in the fourth and the excellent dessert. With wines we trusted the recommendatioms, which were ok but you might want to do your own choices. Service was very friendly. If you are for well balanced combinations of mostly local ingredients, Kielo is worth a visit .

excellent service, many new taste experiences, beautiful portions, menu consists mainly of local ingredients.

Very skillful kitchen. They look for local producers and aim at refining their products into contemporary dishes with grace.

One of our favorite restaurants in the world. Perfect food, made with local ingredienst, and apparently staff & owners are very passionate about their restaurant. The suprise-Menu doesn't fail, we really, really recommend to try it! Fish, meat, veggies, everything is good. And one could easily rely on the recommended wines, they do know what they recommend.

Very good meal and service. But price is littlebit too high for size of portition. Good wine selection and very good local meals.
