A terrible place…We arrived in Vitebsk at the Slavyansky bazaar, walked around the city in the afternoon, looking for a place where we could have lunch, for old times' sake, I remember Pushkin Times, it seemed like a good place before…
My young man has never been to Belarus, I told him that the place is great and the service is good, but as it turned out, it's quite the opposite!
A nice hostess girl greeted us, said that there are places and now you will be escorted , a guy escorted us (I did not understand it was the waiter or also the hostess), I asked him to take us to the veranda, he sat us at a table that was located right at the entrance (although usually, if there is NO BOARDING at ALL, they offer guests to choose a place on their own), I also want to repeat that it was 2 o'clock in the afternoon, there was no one at all, we just wanted to have a snack and leave, it's an hour of time, I asked: "can I sit at the next table?", to which he replied with a grin : "Don't you see that it's canned ?", (yes, I didn't pay attention at all canned/ not canned) , I added that we don't want to sit near the entrance ! "Then put us in the corner where there are big sofas," to which he replied, "You two came, I won't put you in those places!", it is also appropriate to add that he did not say it politely, with a smile, NO, it was arrogant, with a fee, from A number of ladies, who are you anyway to put you there at all? In fact, I'm crazy (sorry for the rudeness), what kind of service is this? I'm sorry, we came, quite ordinary people who just turned around and left, even without asking, etc., just leaving this review! Otherwise, it could be those with whom the guy would lose this job altogether... although maybe this is in the order of things for you.
Thanks again to this guy for his first impression of this place , and in general for the extra headache 🤝🏽
The friendly staff, the atmosphere is at a height, the interior immerses in the Pushkin era (throughout the institution there are attributes of those times: books, candelabra, statuettes) the most important thing is the kitchen - just at its height! One of the best, if not the best, establishments in the city)
Cons: when entering an institution, you feel that you were not expected and are not happy that you came in; you have to wait and call the waiters for a long time, although there were not many people Pros: a cozy place, not loud music, delicious food, a large selection of seafood dishes; live music
Great place! The staff is always polite. Cozy atmosphere, there are separate halls, a veranda. You don't have to wait very long for an order! The menu is varied and very tasty!I recommend it for a visit!

There is Belarusian cuisine. Excellent service. I would like a more modern interior. There are no complaints about food
Pleasant place, service, food, professional bartender, cute waitresses, varied bar menu, generally for 5+.
I was there twice a day (I had lunch and dinner) 10.09.2022.
Delicious, beautiful view, pleasant service, convenient location.
It's definitely worth going in once and evaluating, in my opinion, one of the best places in Vitebsk.
I visited the place on Saturday.My score is 3....I liked the atmosphere, live music and service.But I didn't like the food at all, the hot was rather "cold", although it was cooked for about 40 minutes.And the serving was like in a canteen: cold mashed potatoes floated in the sauce, and a "broom" of parsley on top, and a lone cherry tomato crowned this dish)))The beef was not bad, medium rare (as requested), but, as I wrote above, cold.I wanted to order dessert, changed my mind....
A lot of things were not available. I lowered my star for this. The food is quite tasty. Not cheap. The restaurant itself is beautiful. There was no music - the musician got sick. You can go once
Attentive staff, excellent cuisine, trusting atmosphere,professional vocalists
Hookahs are super, I recommend it....

It is not very budget-friendly, but it is compensated by comfort, taste and quality of service. Overall a good place
