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.

Noir – so black, so black!

If the black door to the courtyard at Ülikooli Street 7 is open, Noir is open as well. A black carpet leads to the courtyard decked with black tables and chairs in summer. In the corridor of the house, one can see other colours as well but in the rooms of Noir black is dominant again. Everything is black, up to the details of the much-talked-about toilet.

The menu comes on golden paper, allowing one to expect food of the same hallmark. And it is so. The food does not compete with the interior design for prominence. One is more likely to look around than at the plate. Yet, one's mouth does not complain either.

To top it off, there are chic wines with their taste almost like softened by the ambience. In Noir, black is not a sombre colour at all. It is sophisticated and soothing. Noir is special. Later on one first thinks of the mood and only then about the food and drink enjoyed there.
