Just ate here with my husband 30-05-2012. We had the 4 course menu and enjoyed the food and the wine pairings. However, the best part of our dinner was the witty sommelier and snappy waiter, both gentlemen immediately clued into our sense of humor and joked around with us. It made it feel like we were well known regulars, and... More

I haven't tried the proper menu but the three course lunch was exquisite! Fantastic value for the money, beautiful atmosphere and superb service. Top class.

There was so much excellent tastes that i haven´t ever taste. Excellent hand made food, just like art. We had 6 courses surprisedinner, but we spend 15 plates and it took almost 5 hours...:D what a trip. You should make an reservation long before you go.

They try to keep the quality of the place. Two stars for several years is cool. But they should make some renovation I guess.. Still food and service are on the Top!!!

We could summarize in one word, and that word would be perfect. Everything from start to finish was perfect. The service, the constant food arriving to our table, immaculately prepared and presented. The pairing and pouring of wine. The bread and even down to the butter was exquisite. One has a choice of either a 3 course, 5, 7 or... More

Chez Dominique is located a little further out from the main esplanade in Helsinki, but is well worth the extra 10-15 mins walk. Being a 2 michelin star rated restaurant we were expecting good things already but this was a real highlight. The dishes were all very modern and bold, striking colours and textures everywhere. The starters of dehydrated root... More

It is romantic and expensive, the food worth the money even though expensive. Budget class should definitely avoid going there. This is a Michelin stared restaurant mind you, so the classiness of it tells it all. Be mindful of your pocket before venturing into Chez Dominic.

The flavors are so artfully thought out!! Rich galaxies of stimulation for your tastebuds. I have been to 3 star places where the food has been much inferior to Hans's. I don't know if Hans want a third star or not, but it will come if the perfectly friendly and professional Finnish staff learn a stratum of quick service and... More

Food is certainly first class in this Michelin starred establishment. Gourmet style prevails, even down to molecular cuisine. The staff seem to think that when you get the M-star you must adopt very formal and distant attitude to your clients. Relax and come closer, and you will get the third star.
