If you are tired of the hustle and bustle of the city, then just a 25-minute drive from Baku, towards Buzovna beach, in the Mərdəkan district, you can find a very good European-style restaurant with good service. Earlier, we reviewed the Beluga restaurant on the seashore, on the Buzovna beach itself, but it was not a European institution at all, and many advised us to visit the Dükkan restaurant. It cannot be said that this is an ideal 5–star place: the atmosphere, design and service are among the advantages. On the downside, the prices are above average, and the taste and serving of the dishes are quite classic.
⚠️ The price tag is above average

There is an organic food store at the restaurant
– 🍳 Breakfast set for 2-3 persons (39 ₼) – surprisingly, the price of such a set does not include any meat and hot dishes. Usually a yumurt tomato is included in the breakfast, but here the dish must be ordered separately. There is no sujuk or sausage in the set. But of the unusual things in it there are grated nuts with honey, pancakes, Lezgian flatbread (very tasty). Delicious fresh bread and unlimited tea are served for breakfast (at least the kettle was replaced for free). But, with all this, the set is not worth the money.
Yumurt tomato in a rustic way (4.5 ₼) is a very classic dish, it could have been more butter, but on the whole it's not bad.
For breakfast, we were served a plate with pickled cucumbers, but when we noticed this, they were immediately replaced with fresh ones. Despite the disadvantages, we liked the breakfast: the place and the interior are beautiful, the service is good.
Just an amazing place. The four of us sat down, gathered salads and meat dishes. Everything was exceptionally delicious. The service was excellent, the waiter prompted everything, if there were questions, he answered everything. So I managed to try the original salad and stewed meat in cherry. The restaurant itself is a large courtyard with a bunch of pavilions. Everything is green. We really liked it.
