⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "I have eaten at Alex twice in one month, believe me, it is that good! Casual dining at 5 star quality. Read on if you are a foodie: Traditional Mauritian curry: the meat really does melt in your mouth, the spices are well balanced and the whole thing is a warming hug from grandmother's recipe. Creme brulee: the best I have ever had, silky smooth, creamy perfection with a fresh, tart citrusy gel on top. And this is only the everyday food...I can't wait to try the Chef's table menu at the same venue...book in advance! If there is one place you eat at in Turku, take a relaxed drive or bus out to the island of Ruissalo and eat this magnificent food while enjoying the waterside views!"

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "Had a lunch date with my wife and loved the food and the atmosphere. We split the cauliflower beignet for a starter and had the beef curry and tamarind chicken for the mains. The food was to die for and the hospitality of the restaurateur checking up on us was the cherry on top. Finished the date off with a creme brulee and a chocolate brownie. Left satisfied and will be coming back for more."

"The [Turku] foodie scene just got more exciting with the opening of Eatery Alex 1917, chef Richy Virahsawmy’s new gem on nearby Ruissalo Island. Michelin, take note. "

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "We had a great evening with Richy and his team last night. We sat on the terrace, watching the ferries and smaller boats go by and were treated to the most amazing food. The fusion between Irish Mauritian dishes was very well thought out, the spicing was perfect, and the drinks menu was comprehensive too. We would love to come back and try the chef's table too. Kiitos for a wonderful evening Eatery Alex 1917, and we hope you do very well in Turku and SW Finland. :-)"
