SEA HORSE

FINNISH FOOD AND CULTURE

Located in the heart of Ullanlinna, Helsinki, the legendary Restaurant Sea Horse has served traditional Finnish food and warm hospitality since December 1933. Loved by locals and travellers alike, Sea Horse is a true classic of Finnish dining culture – where time seems to stand still.

Over the decades, the restaurant’s unique spirit has been shaped by its loyal guests and dedicated staff. In the 1990s, international writer Tyler Brûlé brought global attention to Sea Horse by praising its famous onion steak – and the legend only grew stronger.

For more than 90 years, the kitchen has prepared beloved Finnish dishes from fried Baltic herring and vorschmack to herring platters and Viennese schnitzel, staying true to the flavours that define Finland’s culinary heritage.

Today, Sea Horse remains a living piece of Finnish restaurant history – almost an institution.
