HOW HAVE THE RESTAURANTS BEEN RANKED?

The top 50 restaurants have been ranked on the basis of the opinions of key employees in Estonian restaurants. Restaurant managers, chefs and sommeliers each individually listed the five best restaurants of their choice. The employees of each restaurant listed as the best restaurants by any of the evaluators were given a chance to express their opinions as well. The top 50 restaurants in Estonia represent the aggregate of all the opinions involved.

Though simple, the method is very effective. Restaurants keep a close eye on the activities of each other. Any change for the better or worse is pinpointed well before it becomes obvious for clients.

Also, the ranking is highly democratic. The best does not stand only for the priciest haute gastronomy, but for the recognition by colleagues and competitors that depends neither on the type of the eating place nor the underlying business model. Only the crème de la crème gets the limelight.
 
50 is just a small number. The list of good restaurants in Estonia could be considerably longer. We would like to offer the very best, not all of the good restaurants we have.

But your opinion matters to us also, if you want to say which is the best restaurant in Estonia, click here.

La Bottega – dishes by a Sardinian granny

Actually, there is the restaurant called Vanaema Juures (at Granny’s) in Tallinn. Though deserving, it has not been ranked among the best restaurants. It may well be so because everything really is like at granny's place there.

At La Bottega they cook like the granny of Nicolo Tanda, the Italian chef, at her home in Sardinia. This restaurant was selected among the best. It may well be so because everything is not like at the place of Nicolo's granny.

For example, one is not likely to come across such a fancy wooden staircase anywhere else. And Nicolo himself says that he does not stick to any recipe while cooking. His dishes do not turn out the same as those by the author of the recipes. Each cook has their own ‘signature’. Thus, he did not hesitate to get involved in the new Italian restaurant in Tallinn that already abounds in excellent Italian restaurants.
