The 13 best cheap eats in Parnu

I’ve had the chance to dine at many great restaurants, and this one definitely stands out as one of the best. The service was truly exceptional, the best I’ve ever experienced. The food was not only delicious, but the ingredients were perfectly balanced and complemented each other beautifully. If there had been a tasting menu with wine pairing, this would have been a solid 15/15. Without it, still a very strong 14/15. Thank you I’ll definitely be back!

When was the last time you went to a restaurant and you knew “I want to come back as soon as possible”? For us Mon Ami was exactly that. We dine out quite often in Estonia and also internationally and simply love good food, so finding a gem that Mon Ami is, made us beyond happy! There you can feel the menu is assembled with thought and love, by combining exquisite notes yet keeping the heart of the dish simple and shining. The boeuf a la Mon Ami is one of the best I’ve ever had and oh, the beef tenderloin, perfectly cooked and perfectly salty - just lovely! We ended our night by sharing the “Nemesis” chocolate cake, and again, perfect! Service was 5+, (so sad we didn’t ask for his name) but thank you and the entire Mon Ami team for making our night memorable! We will definitely be back ♥️

The food was so good. Everything was perfect. Zander filed was amazing. Lamb was cooked perfectly. And dessert was perfectly amazing. Suggest this place to everyone who loves great food experience.

The best restaurant not only in Pärnu, but in Estonia. Food always tastes better than you would expect. Staff is great and the cellar is cool.

Mon Ami could have the best food in all of Pärnu--maybe even Estonia. Of the three main courses I've so far tried, I'd recommend the lamb. The service was good, but last time I visited I was confronted with the sad reality of Pärnu's non-summer season: the restaurant, save for my party, was empty. So I hope it's full on the nights I'm not there, because it must be hard to make money with a restaurant in a beach town that's dark and cold for most of the year. If I could change anything it might be the restaurant's name. I'd go for something more fun. Like Mon Dieu, for example. Or Mon Cul.

Not a cheap price but absolutely reasonable Aperol without water and big size for 10€ Food is taste and fresh Service is very good! My suggestion for owner is to change play list from 90s pop to some lounge But all is really good

Actually there were the smallest scallops in my life, but huge size of the fish dish compensated it all. Good service and ambiance, sweets with the bill

The reviews are accurate! This place is a gem. The restaurant itself is adorable, a romantic feel, cutely decorated. Service was fast and friendly. We could tell the gal really put forth effort to do a superior job. The food was plenty. We tried the sharing starter which was a mix of meats, cheeses, veggies - it was awesome, so flavorful. Then we had the lamb and the pork. Both were nicely cooked and again, lots of flavors. We notice Estonia loves sauces and lots of flavor. For dessert we had the watermelon soup which was okay. And the rhubarb cheesecake which was out of this world delicious. We definitely recommend a dinner here, we really enjoyed all the flavors and our experience.

Cosy, clean, away from the crowds. Smooth jazz on comfortable volume, dogs allowed on the terrace. Service has good quality and the cakes tasty.

Very well presented dishes of local produce, perfectly suited to summer. The soolalõhe and perch were excellent, but the refined strawberry+watermelon soup dessert was a joy, taking me back to childhood days of endless summer and perfectly sweet fruit. Excellent head waiter with good knowledge of the dishes and wines, attentive but not intrusive. I recommend booking in summer, although they were able to accommodate walk-ins when I was there, not every dish was still available. On a warm evening the shaded terrace was wonderful.

What an amazing reception. We came with a colony of nine (during prime time) and were directed to a sunny veranda. Tables were combined and a special kids menu was made. Delicious food & coffee! Fine sanitair, excellent host & service. 6 stars.

Still one of the best restaurants in Pärnu. 2nd visit here after 3 years time and same, excellent quality. Highly recommended!

Not what we expected. There was 8 of us and we had to wait for quite a while before we got a table. They don't take reservations. The waiters didn't seem interested in making any extra effort to arrange a table for us or even offer drinks. Finally we got a table and got to order. The waiter had forgotten one of the starters and once the fish soup arrived it was dull and without salt. Main courses were okay, but the plates were cold so the food got cold in an instant. Our waiter didn't know much about the wine list, grapes etc. Maybe they were having a bad day or something. Definitely not worth the hype.

Hea Maa, Pärnu: A Gentle Table off the Beaten Path There’s something quietly disarming about stepping into Hea Maa. The bustle of central Pärnu falls away as you cross its threshold into a dining room dressed in vintage calm—floral tablecloths, white-painted chairs, a playful screen printed with rows of leather-bound books, as if the space had borrowed its manners from an old country salon. The lighting is soft, the air unhurried; it is the sort of room that encourages you to linger. The evening began with a small stumble: my request for ice cubes was met instead with a glass of crushed ice, which promptly leached the sparkle out of a bright rhubarb lemonade. A minor hitch, quickly forgiven, for the food soon spoke with far greater clarity. A plate of beef carpaccio arrived as a delicate composition—slivers of meat under a scatter of greens and tiny vegetables, lifted by just a breath of truffle. The pork tenderloin was the work of a sure hand: evenly cooked, succulent, and accompanied by the occasional baby carrot, one or two of which seemed to have resisted the call of the pan. Dessert was a summery epilogue—a chilled soup of watermelon and strawberry, sweet but not cloying, given a quiet counterpoint by the gentle nuttiness of oat ice cream. Hea Maa will not overwhelm you with theatrics, but nor does it need to. It is a place of steady pleasures, content in its craft, and for those willing to wander beyond the main streets, a meal here feels like time decently, and deliciously, spent.

Had the 4-course ”gourmet journey” with wine pairings. I was _very_ pleasantly surprised. The whole experience bested a Michelin star restaurant in Rome, where I was just a couple of months before. Can highly recommend.

A wonderful experience! The food was excellent, especially the homemade bread with 3 types of butter and the chef’s compliments. I expected a little more from the Lion’s Mane steak, but the service exceeded everything. Many thanks to our waitress, Anastasija!

Nice dinner place. 55€ per person gives you 3 course meal. 4 different options. I went with forest and farm menu. Main course - moose tenderloin had excellent serving. Garlic sauce served with lamb meat made moose meat so much more tasty. Special thanks to blond server guy. He was excellent.

Excellent experience. Menu was really good and also the small greetings from the kitchen. Service worked, wine and cocktails were good. Overall very nice

First time in Pärnu and we had dinner at Raimond. We’re a couple with two young daughters. They have a kids’ menu, and for the adults, an incredible selection of gourmet dishes. Alex took great care of us, and we left with both our stomachs and our spirits full. 100% recommended!

Absolutely wonderful experience. Quality ingredients, amazing flavors, wonderfully professional and friendly service (Rauno was great!). 10/10 would recommend if you’re looking for fine dining in Estonia. Will return in the future.

New top 5 in Estonia. Fantastic tastes, delicate textures and artistically delicious combinations of produce. Decent atmosphere and lovely and attentive service.

Overall, a positive experience. Friendly, multilingual staff, tasty Georgian cuisine, generous portions, and reasonable prices. The only minor drawback was the limited selection of vegetarian options.

It's a lovely restaurant tucked away in a quiet street in the old town. I had the braised lamb with grilled vegetables, which was delicious. I also enjoyed a tasteful Georgian beer with it. I highly recommend a visit.

A small, cozy eatery. Serves authentic and very tasty Georgian food. The main courses are really big.

Great authentic food. The onion and bean soup tasted amazing. The staff spoke great English and had an english written menu. Highly recommended 👌

We ordered the Hinkali and lamb with stewed vegetables. Both of the food options were incredibly bland and had no taste. The Lamb and vegetable stew felt reheated or heated from frozen. The Hinkali tasted like unseasoned pelmeni. Service and atmosphere was fine, but the food ruined the entire experience, not to mention the high price for such unenjoyable food. Do not recommend.

Cozy and pleasant atmosphere with friendly service. The food was tasty, fresh, and generously portioned. The price-quality ratio was excellent, making the whole experience very enjoyable. Would definitely visit again!

I would give the food a 4 out of 5 or about a 3, but the staff was very friendly and the service was good.

This place offers a good burger. It has nice caramelized onions, nice dressing, lightly roasted bun and hand made medium cooked cutlet. Addition to the burger you do get freshly pickled cucumbers. No fries though. All in all a good and safe choice, but really nothing special. For the asked price would have expected something a bit more than pickles. Primitivo by glass was superb.

Another gem of Pärnu. We wanted something lighter for lunch and they did not disappoint. We tried both salads on the menu and focaccia. And while their vision of salad is quite different (think toppings and stuff rather than lettuce/greens), both were delicious! Great combinations of flavors. The apple tea was amazing. And the desserts are a must! We tried a cake pop for something simple, very good!! We highly recommend and would definitely eat here again. Service was fast and friendly, fair prices, and a very clean, organized cafe.

We had an amazing breakfast experience! The variety of dishes was impressive, and everyone in our group was able to find something they truly enjoyed. We left very happy and full. The coffee was excellent, and the pastries were absolutely delicious. The crème brûlée bun was something truly unique – we have never seen anything like it anywhere else. The staff was extremely polite, caring, and always smiling, which made the atmosphere even warmer. We will definitely come back here again on our next trip to Pärnu!

You just got to have breakfast here! Their breakfast menu is full of choices that are not traditional, but they have perfected their recipes. I had the cheesy naan bread two times and I did not regret it. The place gets full fast and the service was tad slow, so don't come for a quick bite, but to enjoy the morning. Got bit noisy too because the place is one big room and there are no acoustic dampeners.

We visited twice and always enjoyed our time here. We usually came in for tea and desserts, to read books and do some work. Servers were all friendly and they speak English! Love the key lime pie and matcha latte. Very nice place to chill~

We went for coffee & something sweet. I must say cakes here are so delicious and hilarious. Best carrot cake! Basque cheesecake was also sooooo great!

Healthy, thoughtful and tasty menu options. Ordered medium steak and this was done like ordered and it was delicious. They have a lot of Estonian vegetables in menu options which is fantastic! A lot of cakes also made that looked fantastic.

No servise. No food. If you like some contact with stuff, go to another place. No "Hello, here you are or anything else" Ketsup is not inclued with chips...it cost more..stuff dont ask anything while ordering... Ant the worst..they dont give a receipt!! Whos paying taxes there?? Food was bad. Too salted. Fish was finish.

Great place! Kind staff, a menu that pleases everyone, generous portions, tasty food, good environment. 5*****

You can order your food inside, and is brought to your table. Fish and chips was with salmon, yummy! Food is simple, but good. Quick service. Recommended, would go back again.

Cheap food and quite big portions. Burgers, wraps, salads, hot dogs etc.🍔🍟🌭🌯🥗 Food is good, but not anything special. Lots of young people.

Good simple fast food, nice ambiance, great value for money! €7,50 for large fish and chips and €2 for house lemonade. Personally, I thought there was too much batter on the fish. I recommend this place for a good and casual meal! and great dessert!

Nice place, food is tasty and not so expensive. We went there twice nights in a row, and there were always many clients.

Good place :) Big portions!

The service was super slow. Slower than what I have come to expect in Estonia. But they were very friendly, so still gets 4 stars. The seafood options were really so good and fresh. And the garlic toast was absolutely divine. The sunset viewing added to our delights.

Loved everything! Food was excellent as well as the service. There’s a lovely area for children with a play kitchen, a climbing wall and some other toys.

Good food, however service took forever. We had to ask 3 times for our food. Very beautiful views, Cozy atmosphere. Menu isn't big but all dishes tasted great. My perch was perfectly seared, lamb fillet weren't chewy, however more on rare side.

Amazing place by the water. You can eat/drink and see sunset here 😊

Some of the food was very good, some was a bit dissapointing. While Burrata Salad was nice and burrata fresh but not "wow", the tar-tar was very good. It all came with very nice design that just calls for "food-Insta-pics" :) The food platter was actually a dissapointment with little different components and no special ingredients. Wheal was very good and desert of minipancakes was nice as well.

When staying in Pärnu, we almost always dine at the yacht club restaurant. The service was fast, caring and friendly. The dish of the day was unfortunately nothing special, but the dessert and coffee were excellent

I grew up in Pärnu and can recommend the restaurant with confidence! Amazing food, great value, stunning views, friendly service. Have a coffee when on a walk, or lunch with family, or romantic dinner - it is suitable for anything really and all year round.

Good place to have a bear and dance, always has a good crowd. Don't order cocktails as they are telerible. And live concerts start late, last one started after 01:00.

Messed up order and made us pay extra at table for food we didn't order

Love it!

It took more than 1hr to bring onion rings and then it turned out that there was a mix up and I’m not getting my main dish. After 1 HOUR! Had to eat my friend’a food, which wasn’t tasty at all. Waiters looked 16 y.o. and didn’t seem to care about anything. Surprised to find such a bad place in the middle of Pärnu.

Looks real nice,i shall return

Really slow service and salty food. Its like eating in the basement. Really dark. Good thing is alcohol tastes better when you're hungry.

We was here many times in last years and it was the best. Now something is changed, maybe owner. Menu was cut in half etc.

Asked for recommendations from the friendly staff. We got hummus, shawarma hot and marina wrap and everything exceeded expectations! The hummus was refreshing and new batch! Then we also ordered Dragon mojito and got super cool drink. We were so full but whats more middle eastern than falafel so got them too ! Its 10/10 and I recommend anyone in Parnu to try this kid friendly halal food place where you have so many options to choose from and vegetarians can enjoy as well :)

I am a semi vegetarian, so chicken is my main source of protein. Great pricing, just the correct amount of heat and solid flavors. Really liked the fries too, they were a bit curved in a fun way. Only complaints are the lack of A/C, and bit greasy and a tas too cold bottom of the pita. Otherwise I would've probably leaned towards four stars, but this blonde girl that works here? Pure sunshine. Love her, and she earned that fifth star on her own. I'm on my way to Riga, but if I pass Pärnu on the way back, I'll stop by again.

We had a homedelivery from bolt food. We ordered different kinds of delicious meals for example shawarma hot, shawarma fattah and shawarma wrap. Everything was great, also the prices (menu -50%!).

Marina wrap was very tasty with specific fries and great sauce. Very nice and beautiful waitress who spoke excellent English. I can recommend.

The food was super good, 10/10. Atmosphere was okay, but it was very hot and you could barely breathe in there. I wouldn’t recommend to eat inside on a hot summer day, because there was no air conditioning.

the fries realy good, shawarma wrap? in my opinion was just salad with a littlr chicken and also was so damn tiny besides that nice service and if you like this kind of wrap then good

There was too much of sauce in kebab, which was like mayonnaise. Also felt that vegetables were not very fresh. Therefore aftertaste was not very good. Finally, kebab was rolled improperly and therefore kebab felt apart

Villa Ammende is a really special place in Pärnu. The service was friendly and helpful, and the building itself is beautiful. There were amazing old paintings and stylish furniture that made the place feel unique. The food tasted great with lots of nice flavors, and everything looked good too. If you enjoy good food in a cool, historic setting, I definitely recommend stopping by.

Very beautiful inside views. Peaceful own, little park. Fireplice. Food tasty, but too expensive for what U get.

This is true fine dining restaurant, one of the best in Pärnu. Cuisine in sophisticated and you can expect culinary experience at its best. Must visit place during you vacation if you really looking for dining experience. Except many other places they focus includes cuisine not just ambience.

The buffet breakfast was marvellous, much recommended

Beautiful surroundings, excellent and friendly service, child-friendly environment, and heavenly food. Highly recommended!

We visited this restaurant during Mekk pop up and actually were pretty disappointed. The atmosphere is great, backyard is beautiful, however food lacked flavor and dishes were overpriced. You get the simplest sandwich with fries and mayo on the side for 16€. Although the sandwich was tasty, that’s not what you expect from a high end restaurant.

Let's start from the good stuff - the service was very friendly and the main course (pike perch) was tasty. However, for some unidentifiable reason the chef desperately wants to use a haute cuisine format which if course includes "interesting" twists on classics and even more "interesting" surprises between the courses. Unfortunately none of that really works, maybe it's the lack of good ideas, maybe skills or maybe it's a flawed concept to start with. Right now the menu feels clearly overpriced and some of the very tasty foods are overshadowed by all the compulsory creativity surrounding them. Take a simpler approach and it will start to work

Slow to bring food. Pizzas are disappointing at best. Thinner than paper, really dry and close to no toppings. Cesar salad is mainly iceberg cabbage mountain with exactly 2 cherry tomatoes, 4 tiny pieces of chicken, a few croutons and almost no sauces (by the taste… store bought). (Might also have had a hair in the salad…😐) Whole wheat pasta overcooked. Only ketchup available as extra condiment. Beer was perfect. Not adequate for the price… Still edible though if one is hungry and doesn’t want to spend a lot of money

Small, regular pizzas. Prices are low, but same is with the quality of the pizzas. Two of the ordered pizzas had hair in it (!). Uhh…of course we had new ones.

Pizza Experience at Pappa Pizza, Pärnu(takeaway) We tried two different pizzas from Pappa Pizza in Pärnu—one chicken pizza with a thick 28cm base and one kebab pizza with a thin 28cm base. The kebab pizza had great flavor, but it was a bit light on the kebab itself. As for the chicken pizza, it mostly felt like biting into thick bread, lacking taste and excitement. For €20 total, the portion sizes and quality didn’t quite meet expectations. It wasn’t terrible, but it definitely wasn’t satisfying either.

The usual simple pizza place in the center of Pärnu. Pizza is quite good and wide selection. I quite liked the salami pizza, where I could add any components and you had pizza constructor to compile your own. (the red vine was literarily warm)

The worst service I've ever seen in my life. And the food was rubbish. Instead of serving us juice, the waitress brought a couple of cartons for us to serve ourselves! And then she took our plates away before we could finish eating. Disgraceful. Next time I'd rather wait an hour at another restaurant than return to that dump.

The tastiest and best pizza in Parnu. Extremely clean. Great and nice atmosphere and vibe. I definitely recommend a visit. If you haven't stopped by here, you haven't visited Parnu.

Pepperoni was out. They could not execute the order as in the menu. Food quality is average.

Amazing summer place with a green lawn and wooden terrace around . We took Godzilla and truffle pizza- Godzilla was so stuffed with the topping it could stand its weight just like Godzilla if it was real , truffle was delicious and soooo mouth flavoring we couldn’t stop

Perfect spot to eat in good atmosphere with fast and polite service. Pizza was delicious.

Phenomenal wood fired pizza in a really great environment. Some of the consistently best music in town, and the pizzas have great names 💨 Staff was very friendly — I would say a must have for pizza in the area. Probably the best in town.

Pizza was ok and the drinks were tasty. Great idea to build up an small place in garden. Negative side was there were no forks available at that moment.

Literally can't remember if I've had better pizza before! So good and simple! And straight from wood oven! Young owners are making the food, serving you behind the counter and you can see the passion in their eyes. Keep up the good work!

Very nice food truck. The atmosphere was good with comfortable chairs on the lawn. We ordered a margherita pizza and some Argentinian empanadas. The pizza was amazing. Well cooked and tasty. For a margherita, it had too many ruccula leaves for my taste but not an impediment to fully enjoy it. The empanadas were very tasty also, but they came with a sauce that covered them. This nullifies the finger food aspect of the dish since you cannot pick them up without getting it on your fingers. It was not bad so I would recommend just serve it on the side like a dipping sauce.

Excellent pop-up pizza place. Nice food, a very pleasant atmosphere in the old apple garden.

Good burger, good french fry! Friendly service!Thnx.

Consistently good food for every taste, even Vegan

Top!

(Translated by Google) A place with a very good aura. Super service and delicious burger. The juicy beef patty was truly tongue-in-cheek. In addition, a fluffy bread and a wonderfully fresh salad. The burger was ready in a matter of minutes and perfectly filled the stomach. Unfortunately, I don't live in Pärnu, but I plan to repeat the pleasure on my next visit. The waiters are young, fast and pleasant. Thank you for a good experience. I recommend a visit. Wishing you success and strength! (Original) Väga hea auraga koht. Super teenindus ja maitsev burger. Mahlane veisepihv viis lausa keele alla. Lisaks kohev sai ja võrratult värske salat. Burger valmis loetud minutitega ja täitis suurepäraselt kõhtu. Kahjuks ei ela Pärnus aga järgmisel külastusel kavatsen naudingut kindlasti korrata. Teenindajad noored, kiired ja meeldivad. Aitäh teile hea elamuse eest. Soovitan külastada. Edu ja jõudu soovides!
