Little bit of nostalgia but in very modern shape. Opened in 2015 to the building that hosted famous restaurant during Soviet times. There signature dishes are octopus and rib-eye fillet, but you can also find nostalgia tastes like sprats with egg-mousse, curd pancakes and cognac cornets.

This is the place to go to enjoy good Estonian Cuisine and the view to Old Town Plaza (Raekojaplats) at the same time. If you would have just one restaurant to go in Estonia, and you want to taste Estonian food I would definitely recommend to go to Kaerajaan!
