Regardless of the fact that the menu is not very vegetarian friendly I adore the decor, wine list, drinks, terrace, service and absolutely everything about the establishment. My meat loving friends have saluted the foie pate and the lamb is also very good. I prefer the social plate with things to share. When Social was first open I welcomed it as a small slice of NYC in Helsinki. Much needed. Social reminds me of Pastis in Meatpacking so much that actually going there now makes me miss New York even more.

If you are looking for good food in Helsinki, Boulevard Social is your place. I fully recommend the tasting menus, which are just excellent value for the money.... read more If you are looking for good food in Helsinki, Boulevard Social is your place.

There was not much privacy and at the time we visited, it was quite noisy as well. But I guess the part of the name, Social , means other people : The service was just great. In one of the dishes we found a cherry seed and mentioned this to the waiter. The kitchen immediately sent us a complimentary extra dish and additional dessert also came along. This is what i 'd call service! On weekend, a prebooking is mandatory. I don 't think you 'll get a table for the prime time with just few days of notice thou.
