A pleasant place!
I was in Minsk and came in for breakfast.
Positive:
- location, city center
- the interior is beautiful, high ceilings, huge windows, lots of air and light
- in the menu, you can choose something for your health
- the food was delicious
Minuses:
- open from 10.00
- there were a lot of people at breakfast in the morning and the service was not very efficient
- the waitress brought salt/pepper, then the dishes, one person ate the dish, she comes up, takes the empty plate and salt/pepper! And I needed salt to add salt to my second course, but there is no salt. Everything looked strange
- the windows are huge and very dirty! I understand that the city center is dusty, but if you are applying for an expensive institution in the center, then you need to match it!
- prices are above the average in Minsk
As a result, I lowered one star for the work of the waiters and dirty windows. Did you like the food

Cozy and stylish. We went in for a glass of wine. The wine is super, we took Italian pink semi-dry.The Caesar salad was delicious too. The service was fast, despite the fact that almost all the tables were occupied. The waitresses are client-oriented. I recommend.

We came to this institution for lunch. There are no questions about food, it is delicious, beautiful, satisfying, the service is excellent.
However, we were led into a hall where there was just a terrible smell of some kind of burnt wiring. So much so that I had to put on a lot more perfume to kill this stench...

A comfortable place for a pleasant pastime, we often go to lunch / dinner with friends.
The hot dishes are good, we especially recommend chicken breast with potato gnocchi and spinach.
The desserts are excellent, our favorites are Kiev cake and bird's milk.
There are problems with the service from time to time, the waiters seem dissatisfied with something, but the last time during our visit we were served by the beautiful Anastasia, thanks to her! Brightened up our evening!
We will be happy to visit you again))
In general, a pleasant place for a delicious lunch or dinner)) We recommend it!

My wife and I were here once. We took shelter from the rain, which is a plus. We ordered New Year's coffee and two slices of cake. There are no complaints about the cake, it's delicious. But the coffee is probably for an amateur. It's sour. The manager said it was because of the orange juice. Maybe. Or maybe it's sour milk? They didn't experiment. The waiter doesn't know what's on the menu. The hall is cold and dark. Some visitors use a flashlight on their phone to highlight the menu(
The management needs to change something, the cafe won't last that long.

This cafe really makes a pleasant impression! The menu is varied, and the dishes are prepared with soul. I especially liked the presentation - it was very stylish and appetizing. The pleasant atmosphere is conducive to relaxation and communication. Excellent breakfasts

In general, the cafe is interesting, we ordered pancakes with lightly salted salmon, the price, of course, is quite high, but it was compensated by a large number of fish, and not two small pieces, which pleased us.
The only thing was that we were unlucky with the waitress, although she was polite and friendly, but she forgot about us all the time, she brought cocoa earlier than the main course, as a result, the cocoa cooled down and was not as tasty as we expected.
My husband took dessert, said it was very tasty.
Overall, the impressions are good and we will be happy to come back on occasion.

My favorite place in Minsk. One of the few establishments that have existed for a very long time, in which it is always delicious, not a big, but a good menu (you can always find what to choose), of course, desserts are super, whatever you take, it is always delicious. The prices are average, quite adequate. And special thanks for the cake and a spectacular birthday greeting, just in the very heart of it

I was here for the first time in the summer with a friend. At breakfast. We were not very impressed with the dishes. But I decided to give the institution a second try. They came for breakfast again. The husband took oatmeal porridge, which was a thin soup with questionable spoiled peaches. I took a scramble with vegetables. Of course, the avocado was hard and not ripe, and some strange ingredient was added to the scramble. In general, for such a price, I would like the dish not to look like I made it myself at home from what I found in the refrigerator. I'm not coming here anymore.

I've been to this place three times.
I really like the cozy small hall to the left of the entrance.
Pleasant musical accompaniment.
In terms of the menu, it's not bad either, I ordered risotto with seafood, like 👍
I also took strawberry cheesecake, it was so tender that it felt like I was eating cottage cheese yogurt from Savushkin))) very unusual)
In terms of service, there were both good waiters and not so good.
There is a point that I would like to emphasize. In many middle-class establishments, I observed that they always serve water to the table, but here I had to ask.
In general, it's worth visiting the place, and maybe I'll come back again)

We visited Minsk for the New Year holidays, went to have lunch.
Among the advantages: a beautiful place with large Windows, convenient location. The cafe is clearly designed for tourists.
There are more disadvantages.
The first thing that caught my eye was that they weren't smiling. But most of all, I was surprised by the long service and, as a result, they brought cold food. Fish soup in very uncomfortable fluted pots. The potatoes are cold, the steak is tasteless. Arugula salad is drizzled with such sour balsamic vinegar, which causes heartburn, although the added grapes are very tasty. The macaroni and cheese are great, but the piece of red fish was over-dried.
Raf tastes like it's made of powder. The next day we decided to choose another place.

Good evening!
I am very disappointed with your establishment!! We wanted to come to your friend's birthday party. We had a reservation for 22:00 for today. We arrive at the establishment at 22:05, and the doors are already closed, although you are scheduled to work until 23:00 today.
There are employees at the entrance and they say that the administration has already allowed them to close. I don't care if you have guests at this time, we have A RESERVATION FOR A CERTAIN TIME. Your staff SHOULD HAVE BEEN THERE AT THAT TIME!!!
Extremely disappointed with the service and attitude. I especially want to highlight the administrators who closed the establishment at this time!!!!
And thank you for ruining my birthday.

Excellent atmosphere, pleasant staff, friendly service in the evening and in the morning. The food is at the highest level: desserts are fresh, you can always look at them and choose the one you like, excellent breakfasts from 10 to 12 on weekdays. The place leaves only a pleasant impression, definitely at the next arrival we will come here again. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 (places fly like pies, it's better to book in advance)

The food is generally delicious. The staff is polite, recommends what you can try from the menu, the service is fast.
The atmosphere is cozy. The prices were reasonable for us. The interior is modern, sofas and armchairs are comfortable.
The choice of desserts is simply huge. For every taste. They chose a Drunken Cherry and Carrot cake.
The main dishes were borscht with duck, pasta carbonara, chopped beef.
Everything was delicious.
The only thing is, the pasta was slightly overcooked, but the dish itself was delicious
And borscht lacks a little saturation or density. Maybe, because the dish is with duck, not beef, this feeling was not enough.
The meat was delicious. Sliced steak. Not big, but delicious in the composition of the whole dish.
They also took the leftover trout from the New Year's Menu under a fur coat. Very tasty trout and salad in general. Interpretation of herring salad under a fur coat, only tastier and the recipe is fresher.
We ordered Viennese and Irish coffee. Irish coffee is still not the original, it just turned out to be a cappuccino with whiskey. :)
I advise everyone, excellent cuisine, staff and atmosphere.

I celebrated my birthday, booked the table in advance and made a full pre-order, we agreed that there would be snacks and salads for the arrival of the guests. As a result, all the guests arrived at the appointed time and the waiter begins to move the tables and set the table. We were able to sit down at the table only half an hour later, all this time we just stood next to each other. They forgot about the hot food for one guest, they brought it 15 minutes later and then after I asked where the food was (that is, everyone else had eaten their own for a long time).
More than half of the dishes were frankly tasteless, and the set of snacks was terrible. The barbecue ribs turned out to be boiled and stewed and absolutely bland - why call them barbecue?
The gift cake is, of course, nice. But he can no longer save a spoiled impression. It would be better to make a decent service.
For pleasant festive dinners, the institution clearly does not pull, although they declare themselves as a restaurant with a rather big check.

Very tasty. Very. And inexpensive (well, for a resident of St. Petersburg). The atmosphere is pleasant and inviting. The waitress girls are beautiful, smiling, although they don't have much experience, but they obviously try.
I would put 4* for flaws in the service, but the girls are beautiful, so I won't))

Let's start with the good stuff. The food is delicious and varied, the choice of desserts is good, within walking distance from the metro. The interior is tired, but not annoying. The waiters were most disappointed: sometimes they don't notice you at point blank range, then they ask stupid questions, then they forget part of the order. With such a price tag, this is surprising. And there is no way to park next to the word at all.

The restaurant has a great view from the windows, a modern interior, quite tasty (pike perch with polenta and tomatoes), but the portions are very small, the price is too high. However, the service is good, the waiters are friendly.
We do not recommend trying mussels in cream sauce - they are tasteless.

I read in the recommendations where there are eclairs in the city about this place. As a lover of French cuisine, especially eclairs, I just couldn't miss this place and went on the first day of arrival. Eclair is very average: the custard dough is made in the Soviet way, it's not bad at all, but it's not about France and its confectionery art. The cream is not bad, but it does not stand out in any way, the chocolate fudge seemed to be made of ordinary chocolate without notes. My mother cooks eclairs at about the same level, but I would like un peu de plaisir... At the same time, the city has the best examples of what an eclair à la française should be like.

The breakfast approach is soulless, unlike the main menu. 40 minutes waiting for a cold scramble on unsweetened bread is still somewhat disappointing, unfortunately, coffee is also not up to par. Otherwise, the service is always polite, the tables are clean, and the location is convenient in the city center. The interior is for an amateur. In general, it is a well-established institution, proven over the years, but sometimes with small mistakes.

The wedding was celebrated on 07.07.23 in a family circle of 7 people. We were provided with an almost isolated room with an additional sofa. It was very cozy and relaxed - thanks a lot for that.
The food was very tasty, the portions were large, the change of dishes was timely. There is live music that does not interfere with communication.
The prices were pleasantly surprised.
Special thanks to our waiter Tatyana Fedortsova (I hope I correctly indicated the last name) for excellent service, kindness, good mood and photos of the guests))
It's not the first time in the restaurant and definitely not the last
P.S. Adele's cake is great!)

Many thanks to our waiter!
Mushroom soup is very tasty!
Eclair with duck is a masterpiece!)
The steak is good, soft.
Seafood is fried in too much oil.
I liked the service.
There is little choice of good white wines - almost all are either semi-dry, or even semi-sweet.
I would like more good dry wines and less oil in seafood.
But, in any case, we were very satisfied, we recommend this place to visit)

As much as I love the golden scallop, I think it has the best desserts in town, but today the waiter Tatiana ruined everything.
We brought guests from another country, I asked them to tell me if there is a table for 8 people! The waiter Tatiana grimaced and asked, "where, here?" Of course not, in the building opposite. The hall was almost empty. She said that there were no options to take a table with our company and left.
What is the attitude towards customers??? I ask the management to take action against this waiter (Tatiana in a red uniform).

We love this place, and whenever we come to Minsk, we have breakfast here.
But! This time, when approaching the institution, my husband and I, without collusion, thought that the cafe had closed because the windows were dirty, just a nightmare—the face of the institution.
The doors to the kitchen are battered, dirty, still I would like to see beauty everywhere.
The doors to the toilet are also rolled up. There are traces of dried drops on the mirror in the women's bathroom, and in general everything is so sloppy, there is no feeling of cleanliness. I didn't go into the bathroom itself.
A teapot with tea in traces of dried drops, or even deposits from water, that is, it is not rubbed with a rag.
The food is delicious, the service is good, although they always keep the bill for a long time. But there are big questions about cleanliness in an institution that claims to be "golden" in the name))
In general, there was a residue from the visit, and even thoughts of finding an alternative in Minsk. The advice to the managing link is to do something urgently with this, people do not directly talk about it, but everyone notices

Delicious hearty breakfasts. I liked the pancakes with salmon and sour cream. Porridge is also good. I didn't have to visit in the evening, but judging by the morning landing, it was also busy in the evening. And a table reservation is required. The service is unhurried, as it is everywhere in the Republic of Belarus. I recommend.

A bit pretentious, but a pleasant place. They came for breakfast, took Belarusian - it was delicious and satisfying, my wife didn't even finish it. I was pleased with the good live music on the piano, at 11 o'clock it is unexpectedly pleasant. We haven't tried the desserts, but they look delicious. The coffee is good! The waitress girls, as in many other establishments in Minsk, seem to be scared of something. We still don't understand what this is about)
I didn't like that they put us at a high table by the window, which was cold. At the same time, there were free normal tables.

4 reasons why I recommend this wonderful place!
1. Furnishing and decoration! Everything is beautiful, neat, I want to be there!
2. Delicious food and aesthetic presentation. I took pumpkin soup with shrimp and pancakes with salmon. Kitty took beef tartare and onion soup. I liked everything. The nuance is that the pancakes are deep—fried, very fatty. But it's delicious.
3. Prices are ok. Not cheap, but not overkill either. It's normal for such an institution.
4. Dessert on your birthday! They brought us a whole Bird's Milk cake with a sparkler candle! We were very pleased! Thanks!

Ruined the mood on the day of the painting.
They called a few days in advance to book a table near the window. The reservation was confirmed.
When we arrived, we were given the scariest table in a dark corner. Then they offered to sit behind bar stools (yes, it is very convenient in a wedding outfit behind a bar stool!). In the end, a place was vacated and we were transferred to a normal place.
The table was dirty, and when asked to wipe the table, they snorted, saying that it had been wiped. After 10 minutes, they wiped the table on the second request and guessed to offer to put the bride's bouquet in the water.
🤷we could put it down to workload and fatigue, but it's 2 p.m. on Saturday.
I put an additional star for a good festive compliment in the form of a cake, but even it was already unpleasant to receive after a spoiled mood on a very festive and tremulous day.
