Ravintola Majakka
An established restaurant by the harbor operating for over fifty years, open year-round, using ingredients from local fishermen and farmers, with fried vendace as a classic.
Majakka is located at Satamakatu 11 near Savonlinna Harbor and has been operating here for over fifty years. The menu is based on products from local fishermen and farmers. Fried vendace is a classic here, with 2026 reviews still praising its generous portions; reviews also frequently mention pike-perch and beef liver. Lunch is served on weekdays from 11:00 to 14:00 for about €14, including salad, dessert of the day, and coffee or tea, making it a budget-friendly option. Unlike the summer stalls at the Market Square, this restaurant is open year-round, so you can enjoy local fish even during the off-season. It is just a few minutes' walk from the Market Square.
