A modern harbour development just outside the city plays host to this stylish restaurant and its futuristic bar. The name refers to the 180° view from the U-shaped kitchen counter; sit here to watch the chefs in action or at a more intimate table looking out over the harbour. Ambitious, visually impressive dishes are the German chef’s hallmark and his detailed creations show a memorable array of flavour and texture contrasts. Choose between the tasting menu or an upgraded ‘Premium’ experience with caviar, truffle and cheeses. Warm, engaging service helps to create a relaxed experience.

The latest opening from the Siigur restaurant group sits within the bustling Rotermann Quarter. One of the hottest tickets in town, it’s a big, bold, blingy space complete with colourful furnishings and an open kitchen, at the heart of which is the Vulcano Gres Grill, where the dancing flames add not just flavour but also to the atmosphere. The extensive menu offers a good choice of Mediterranean-inspired dishes but, of course, it’s the meats and grills cooked over the fire that are the stars of the show. Lunch is good value, and the capable team cater as well for large groups as they do table

From the owners of Lore Bistroo comes UMA, situated in a waterside warehouse where they once built submarines for the Russian navy and now boasting a superb harbourside terrace. An on-trend spot, it’s name stands for ‘Unorthodox Modern Asian’, and that’s exactly what you’ll find here. The great value menu mixes small and large plates – all designed for sharing – and keeps recognisable flavours such as satay and sweet & sour to the fore. The freshly cooked coconut flatbread is a must, while the ‘UMA Experience’ offers a little of everything, with the dishes served on stands akin to those used f

The sister restaurant to neighbouring UMA is a characterful modern bistro which sits in a cavernous warehouse overlooking the harbour at Port Noblessner. Steel girders, hoists and concrete pillars provide the backdrop, while an open kitchen adds to the buzz.

Go for the Lore Experience menu if you fancy sharing dishes served family-style – and if you see crêpes Suzette on the menu, be sure to give them a try! Friendly service rounds out the experience perfectly.

Vesta brings something a little special to the Estonian dining scene, so while the eye-catching yellow building might be located just outside the city centre, the short journey is certainly worthwhile. Set up by three friends, it’s a lively, animated place where everyone is out to have fun, from the guests to the charming young service team. At the heart of the room is a large communal counter with two sides set for dining, the place to sit to see the action up close. The menu is small, but the choice is appealing, offering dishes such as pike-perch with mussels and ‘nduja or steak frites for

Sitting within a former industrial complex, Telliskivi TLN is a thriving cultural and business centre. Amongst its many outlets sits Moon (Estonian for ‘poppy’) – a former blacksmith's from the Tsarist era – where the charming team greet both locals and visitors as if they are regulars. Their mantra is ‘simple, honest, local and sustainable’ – and that’s exactly what they do here. The seasonally changing menu comprises flavoursome Slavic dishes; be sure to start with some of the tempting snacks before moving on to the likes of Siberian dumplings or carp in sour cream with tomato and caper sala

An old car workshop in the artsy Telliskivi Creative City is home to this sister of Barbarea – and those in the know will recognise the concept. During the day, it operates as a bakery and café, while at night it comes alive as a buzzy bistro. The high-ceilinged room with its bold chequerboard floor and zinc ducting is dominated by an open kitchen, where a chargrill takes centre stage, and it’s here that the highlight dishes are created, from Savoy cabbage to tender deer. Many of the appealing Mediterranean plates are designed for sharing, but thankfully not the delicious saffron cake with pis
