The best restaurants in Tartumaa
Pompei is a breath of fresh air in Tartu's stagnant gastronomic scene. The food is simple and unadorned, but very tasty. The drinks menu is just as important as the food menu. This is where the people of Tartu like to hang out. Pompei differs from other restaurants by offering fresh cheese every evening.
The Joyce Restaurant in the only spa hotel in Tartu doesn't settle for mediocre food, but rather for awe-inspiring dishes. The cuisine is made from a variety of ingredients and prepared using different cooking techniques. The result is eye-catching, slightly flirtatious in appearance, but with well-balanced flavours.
Antonius is a safe bet. This is a sophisticated place where people come to exchange ideas in an elegant setting. Everything is understated. The food doesn't draw attention to itself, but like the conversation at the table, there's something interesting to discuss on the plate that complements the whole experience. All dishes are well paired with beverages.
