Something has changed and not for the better. Still, a strong three stars for the atmosphere and commitment to style. For me, she is still an icon of fashionable catering. What I didn't like specifically: the refrigerator was warm, not thoroughly brought to taste, "young fried potatoes" in fact turned out to be deep-fried three cubes of potatoes of indeterminate age. Although it was a lunch menu, but it's a little weak, guys. The burger of the day was with turkey and cranberry sauce. The same sauce interrupted everything. So saturated and unbalanced in quantity for such a small burger. Overall, the burger was "technically" good. There are few of these now on the fast food, street food and their premium branches. The work of the service is also not bad. At lunch there is a full hall and a summer terrace. In the evening, around 22 o'clock, the hall is empty, the neighboring establishments are full. There is something to think about. Maybe the prices should be revised, otherwise it's too expensive for the average Minsk resident. And targeting a Russian or other guest is a so-so strategy.
By the way, there are no complaints about evening dishes.
Bottom line: compared to the times before 2020, now, alas, is not the case…

Perhaps the review is not quite up-to-date, but I got to the ratings of memorable establishments in Minsk only now. We visited this institution in October
- when the occupancy of the restaurant was low, they waited for a waitress for a very long time
- despite the fact that it was a day off, we couldn't cook some of the positions, we chose from what we didn't really want.
- we ordered sandwiches and pasta with duck: the sandwiches match the photo, but keep in mind that this is just a wide loaf from above and below, which falls apart when trying to bite. The duck was surprisingly dry, it was impossible to eat. What was reported to the waitress. She replied that everything is prepared according to the recipe and will check with the cook.
- again, we waited a long time for the staff to come to the second floor again and ask for the bill.
- during the calculation, there was no feedback from the staff regarding our comment about the food
Given the PR of this establishment, it was strange to see such cuisine and service in many public places.

The place was overrated. No one met us at the entrance and did not accompany us. The bartender greeted me and told me how to get to the terrace. The waiter did not come up immediately, who was serving us-the girl did not introduce herself. Drinks were served quickly, unfortunately, no one offered additional coffee, no sugar, no saucers)). There were no napkins on the table. They brought one napkin, on which they put the appliances. There is no service. Please take note. The interior is quite pleasant, I also liked the kitchen, but the tables that are not cleaned with an empty hall spoil the whole picture.

The sandwiches don't match the cost: the bread is rubbery, the meat is tasteless, and I didn't like it at all. Salad with red fish - the lettuce leaves were brought already dead with black tips.

It is not indicated anywhere that the lunch menu is served only on weekdays! (fix this flaw😡). The waiter forgot about me, but as a compliment he provided free coffee to choose from. This situation is not catastrophic, since in other establishments you usually wait longer.
The dish is fine, the interior and music are 10/10, but the prices are slightly above average

the menu is small, there are only two soups and three appetizers, the food is bland, there is not enough sharpness, salt, or taste. the sauce in the sandwich is liquid, there is too much meat, instead of a bun there is a fried piece of a loaf that is all soaked like a sponge : (this is understandable about meat, but there are almost no positions without beef, and those that are unprocessed.
It's sad!

We went for a walk in Minsk and could not pass Oktyabrskaya. There was nothing but coffee in our stomach and we were looking for somewhere to eat ... but we didn't have a snack and ate enough for the day ahead!
Large portions, everything is insanely tasty and juicy.
If you will be on Oktyabrskaya Street, be sure to check it out

Very tasty. Lots of seats. Considering that about 20 people came at one point, the service was good and the cooking took a little longer, but for obvious reasons. We definitely recommend it, as the choice of dishes is good and varied.

An institution with a solid C. Iskra sandwich is just bread with stew, well, laughter. Cups without ears are a separate kind of masochism. You have to sit and wait for the tea in the cup to cool down, because it's impossible to pick up a cup. I only liked the tomato soup, I took it twice. However, after the 2nd visit, after this soup I started to feel sick. I didn't like the turkey salad at all, the turkey was just no good, even to fry it in a hurry.,— it will taste better. Salad with nut dressing and tuna is covered with sour and salty sauce. Desserts are weak too, tiramisu is tasteless, cheesecake is just a casserole. The wine glasses were all dusty or wiped with a napkin, and all the trash was floating in the wine. The tables are small, very tiny. There aren't even any windows on the second floor, just a crack in the concrete. We chose this place only because it was close to the hotel. But if you go further, you can find a more comfortable and decent place. They definitely don't know how to cook here :(

A good place with very hearty burgers. The price is adequate for such calories.
The service is good. I recommend that you try the classic Enzo burger in this restaurant. In addition to burgers, the restaurant has many more dishes. I can't call this restaurant ideal, because something was still missing.
But the food quality is still pretty good.

We came to Minsk for a few days from Moscow, this bar turned out to be quite on the level, I liked it. Attentive service, delicious juicy burgers, excellent wine, very high-quality Portuguese port and a special adoration - the freshest brioche served with tartare. Prices for Minsk are not the lowest, but the place is worth it.

We got into this place completely by accident and did not regret it. The service is excellent, the waitresses are well-versed in the menu, helped with the choice of dishes, listening to all our preferences. Drinks and meals are brought quickly and, most importantly, with high quality!! We are extremely glad that we found Enzo and if we doubt whether to go to Minsk or not, then for the sake of this place - definitely YES

The soups are delicious, the tongue is not bad either. But it's better to go to neighboring establishments for burgers. It's a little dry, there doesn't seem to be enough meat. Beer from 20p

I visited this place. The receptionist informed that burgers from the old establishment remained on the menu. I sat down at the table, the waiter says there are no burgers from the menu available. It is not known why the administrator did not tell about this... I ordered a steak, ptitim and cheese, it is difficult to spoil the steak is overcooked and over-salted at a very low-budget price tag. I won't come here anymore. And I will not advise anyone

I didn 't like the place at all . When the chef pronounced our order aloud in the kitchen, two of the cook's girls loudly swore obscenely... it's not clear what it was about, but we heard it perfectly. A very long wait, the two of them came, the first person was given roast beef first , then after 7 minutes grilled vegetables, and the second person still did not carry pasta. And they brought it when the first one had already eaten, 15 minutes later they brought food to the second one. It's very strange. Is it really that long to cook pasta? There were few other guests besides us, they came around 22 o'clock on Sunday. The waiter asked how the roast beef was, I replied that I did not like it, there was no reaction, absolutely, as if this was the norm of things.

We were at lunch, the order from the lunch menu was carried for 25 minutes, the service, to put it mildly, leaves much to be desired, the waitresses with tortured, dissatisfied faces, as if they were being held in slavery here. The menu stated "Crispy BBQ chicken with grilled vegetables", non-crunchy meatballs with grilled vegetables were brought. When I asked what it was, the waitress replied that this was my order and these were chicken meatballs and ran away without further explanation, my question about why one thing was indicated on the menu, but in fact another was brought flew into her back and remained unanswered. There was also a salad (a small handful) with "Grilled Chicken", but the chicken was just boiled. Everything is bad in terms of maintenance and maintenance
