Abkhazia is nature, beautiful... But the service leaves much to be desired, the impression that you owe everyone. We ordered trout on the grill for 3 servings. Two of them had digestive problems after lunch (. There are a lot of tourists, they came, ate, left. You don't have to try. The staff is not trying. There will be visitors anyway... I do not recommend it
Everything was very tasty, both adults and children liked it, I want to come back.
The hall is small, the place is popular, everything can be busy during rush hour.
We had lunch here several times. Delicious! Like Mom's :) the portions are not very large, but they are cooked very well, the boats are the most delicious in all of Mount Athos, the prices are average, a tip of 10 percent is included in the receipt. Very small chebureks, straight chebureks)) But delicious. An incomparable grilled cheese.
I will also note the cozy interior and an interesting solution with a swing on the veranda :)
We can't say anything bad, at first glance all the places are occupied, and the illusion of the cafe's popularity is created. But that's because the service is extremely slow. Half of the tables are sitting and waiting for at least a menu, as a maximum I'm already eating. Two more times we tried to eat in a cafe and left without waiting for the waiters. Such a thing. Although we are not in a hurry, it freezes us out.
We went to have lunch at this place today on 08/04/2013. People, what are you writing about, what is the competence of the staff? An ordinary canteen eatery at inflated prices! Store-bought frozen and brewed khinkali, diluted, bitter beer. Lemonade from the nearest store, ice has just been added. Small portions and with a claim to the original presentation. But the bill is for 4t rubles and they did not forget to make a service there, which consists of bringing dishes with food / removing dirty dishes from the table -😂
I am very disappointed, I do not recommend visiting!
Hospitality and professional etiquette 100% add, complete absence. When you meet a guest, smile, be friendly, open, and communicate at the level of” you owe me”... , of course we won't come back to you anymore.
It is expensive even for Abkhazia) for two - the first and second with coffee, almost 5 cups) 5-Karl...I couldn't cut chicken cutlets with a knife). Although the restaurant is declared, but this institution will find its wallet in the season
An ordinary dining room.
In general, it is clean, the service is good - do not wait for an extra word. The hall is relatively clean.
Food - to go in to satisfy your hunger - will do.
Delicious - not to say.
Frying pan with chicken - the chicken is very tough.
The rest is the quality of the canteen food.
The price - quality does not match. You can find it cheaper.

the service is excellent; the food is delicious, French fries are a bomb, the milk cocktail is not very sweet, the Sukhumi beer is good; there were a lot of people, but everything was brought quickly
We were at this institution on 30.06.24.we ordered a khachapur boat with an egg.it was terribly not tasty, raw tasteless dough.there is little cheese and butter.we expected the best from this institution.and the price is too high.
Rudeness, aggression, inadequacy, complete incompetence and unsantaria. You run the risk of encountering all this in this cafe. This has never happened before.
On October 9, we tried to have lunch on the new veranda.
1. The waitress didn't pay any attention to us. After 15 minutes, she remarked in a friendly way, they say, "you would have sat further away, I thought you just came like that, but I have a lot of work, why didn't you take the menu."
2. The waitress forgot to bring part of the order. I didn't apologize after the reminder, I just ran away.
3. There was raw meat in the pasties, which did not even have time to defrost during cooking. After the remark, I was offered to cook them again, and after 15 minutes, without apologies, they said they could not do it and simply would not be included in the bill.
4. But tips are included in the bill here by default. On my motivated refusal to pay tips for the disgusting service, the waitress threw a tantrum and began to be rude. She literally offered to take us to the dining room around the corner, snide and voiced ridiculous excuses. In the end, she literally snatched the money out of her hands and ran away.
Bottom line: we were left hungry, our mood was spoiled for the whole day, I risked poisoning myself.
Don't get fooled by the good design of this "cafe". In relation to customers, this is the level of a collective farm canteen. It's a pity, because before that we were in the old room twice and everything was good and delicious. However, because of such waiters, not a foot more!
We had a rest in Abkhazia in March, visited this cafe more than once. We went to lunch for the first time at the insistence of the child. Once "like mom's", it means it's delicious))) We read literally, we believe, we boldly go in and try. Khinkali, soups, khachapuri boat, shish kebab, dumplings went with a bang! We noticed that while we and other visitors were waiting for orders (the waiting time was standard, even served quickly), there was a buzz of conversations. But as soon as the food was brought, silence was established in the room)) no one wanted to be distracted from eating. After that, the peaceful, well-fed, satisfied guests went about their business.
Many thanks to the chefs, the brazier and special thanks to Amanda!
There are no complaints about the quality of the food, as well as the desire to pay 10% of the mandatory tips included in the bill. Waiters with stony faces and indifference to customers.
Nice cafe. The food, in my opinion, is excellent. Large portions. The staff is very friendly. I really liked khachapuri!
We will definitely go to New Athos!
I take off 2 stars, namely: for the disrespect of the waiters to the visitors of the cafe, what can you do, the restaurant service is in a deplorable state, work and work! To greet guests without a smile and very reluctantly, of course, I am in wild shock. The bill has to wait really, really long, as many people write here - this is a fact. We've eaten here a couple of times.
On the first day, it was 30.07.2023, when we got to New Athos, we lived just with the hostess of this cafe (it was advertised to us) and decided to stay for lunch. The food is delicious, but not all, the dishes are beautifully served - thanks to the chefs, it was very pleasing, and the dishes are also beautiful.
We took okroshka on kvass, eggplant rolls, meat in Abkhazian, khachapuri boat with egg, chicken chop (I didn't like it disgustingly dry). Khachapuri, of course, is insanely delicious! Drinks include non-alcoholic mojito, Sukhumi beer, and milkshake.
In addition, I want to say that we went to take khachapuri with an egg boat home with us in the evening, and what was our surprise - such a place, with such a design approach, with such expensive-looking dishes - put khachapuri for us just in a plastic bag!!!😳 not in a container, but just in a package!
We also had dinner here on August 09, took dolma and white wine, I don't know what exactly, but after 2-3 hours it became bad and there was severe poisoning, with a consequence under a drip in the hospital (this is not surprising if electricity is turned off in the city and throughout Abkhazia).
So dear visitors, carefully choose both dishes and places!
Thanks to all the readers and have a good rest!
The food is really delicious, but the service is disgusting!!!Waiting to just take an order 45 minutes out of life. When you want to eat, and they just literally send you:wait and that's it, or go to the canteen, eat food from the microwave. Anti-hospitality, spoils the impression of the whole country. The desire to return disappears, because he will go hungry. Terrible, very terrible
Pros: zakos on the designer interior, there is where to wash your hands. Good menu design, dish decoration.The place is good
Cons: a passageway, employees are standing over their souls, there are a lot of them, and they run around the table and climb with unsolicited advice.
The food is tasteless and the prices are unreasonably high. There is no toilet.
But it's worth noting that some cafes are even worse, so you have to choose the best of two evils.
We were in the evening, served, although they should have been already closed, but some majors were resting there, so the cafe was working. Yes, thanks to the vacationing guys, we were treated to a bottle of champagne. They took coffee in the cafe, coffee was prepared from the coffee machine, I didn't like solid water, although the cost is prohibitive. And so it's nice to relax in the evening calm.
The interior is beautiful, we did our best. The food is not bad either, but the service is… We didn't fully understand who it was, but it seemed like the manager was scolding the waiters, then for one thing, then for another ... we came to rest and eat, as a result, we witnessed unnecessary fuss ... One more thing surprised us!!! Summer, lunch, the heat outside… There is an air-conditioned room on the door (it really is there and even turned on) a big reason why we went there, but when we sat down at the table, we felt that it was stuffy. We started looking for the reason, it's open doors. They asked to close it, otherwise the air conditioner does not cool the room. And we were told IF WE CLOSE, THEN PEOPLE WILL THINK THAT WE ARE CLOSED AND WILL NOT COME IN.... I was shocked.
There are no advantages at all! The kharcho is fatty, the rice is half-cooked, two small pieces of meat with veins, unsalted and unpeeled. There is only one name from kharcho. Khachapuri was overexposed in the oven to brown, black from below in places! It seems that they write positive reviews to themselves there!
We do not recommend eating there! The prices are considerable, there is no pleasure at all. Local business, without quality!
Good cuisine, dishes were served quickly, everything is quite tasty. There is a high chair, WiFi. The only thing I didn't like was that the tip was immediately included in the receipt.

We were regular customers. We came to Athos for 8 days and ate here every day. The prices are not for the dining room, as for me, and the service should be appropriate. It is strange that a meat chop is cheaper than a Greek salad. First, they brought us chicken soup with undercooked potatoes, well, okay, we thought, it happens. But the next day they brought us undercooked meat cutlets, which we had been waiting for a very long time. Well, of course we checked all the cutlets and cut them and gave them to the waitress. So then 10 minutes later, our cutlets were brought to us, cut up, in a smeared plate like some kind of pigs! Naturally, we refused. The waitress didn't apologize, so she pretended that it was our fault. I counted the receipt incorrectly. That's how, at one point, they discouraged all desire to visit this institution.
This is the best cafe in New Athos! The kitchen is excellent, the staff is positive, friendly, caring, the interior is cozy. The cafe is almost always full, there are no empty tables, so it can be difficult to get in right away, you have to wait for a table to be available (we just don't go to other cafes when we visit New Athos). Cafe "Delicious like mom's" is love at first sight. The hostess of the cafe deserves special attention - the kindest, most hospitable person. Be sure to visit this place!
By Russian standards, no more than 3 points out of 5.
Design and comfort 4 - 4.5.
Service and hospitality 2.
Kitchen 3.
By food: a lot of semi-finished products. Dumplings, chebureks, nuggets. But there are also delicious dishes - peacock tail (baked eggplant), hot frying pan. The beer is local, not very much. Vinishko for 4. Check for 1 guest 1-1.5 to Get mixed feelings. The quality of the cuisine and hospitality need to be improved. But in Abkhazia, this is the local signature of all establishments!
An interesting interior. Comfortable sofas and armchairs in the hall, there are places on the street, there is a small veranda. The menu is intricately decorated on a wooden board. The service is slow, they can't cope with a large number of visitors. The music is very loud and so, for an amateur. We weren't such amateurs and she was an annoying factor. Of the ordered dishes, I liked only the lemonade. Eggplant with nuts were too cold and greasy, pilaf with mussels - as if the mussels were taken ready-made from a purchased tin can. Prices are slightly higher than in canteens, at the level of other cafes, the portions are small.
Cafes with delicious boats that cook right in front of you, they are awesome. Delicious grilled cheese and lula kebab. Wonderful cheesecakes. The dumplings are ordinary, slightly overcooked. A cozy, pretty atmosphere.
The waiters are very slow, if you don't have much time, it's worth considering.
A pleasant place to eat. The food is delicious but not very memorable. I ordered chicken soup, fried potatoes and pita bread. The soup was transferred first, after about 15 minutes the pita bread, but I did not wait for the potatoes to be fuller, the waiter just forgot. But you didn't forget to include it in the bill, so you check the bill and the change, the waiter's mathematical abilities are clearly not in your favor.
Delicious food, I liked your khachapuri (they call it "boat" there), well-cooked barbecue and vegetables on the grill, a good selection of drinks, friendly staff, but unfortunately there are few tables - we visited several times and once had to go to another institution due to the long wait.. I recommend you to visit, you will not regret it..
The food is normal , but the prices are not good, the dumplings are store-bought, although they say they do it themselves , + 10% tip immediately , it doesn't matter if you like it or not
Yesterday we visited this institution and I do not understand the enthusiastic reviews, the food is not very tasty, to put it mildly, we took lamb, khinkali, khachapuri and trout on the grill, there is a separate story about trout on the grill, sold in grams, brought a small fish, well, a maximum of 250-300 grams, when they brought the bill, it is calculated for half a kilogram it was, well, it would still be delicious, overcooked and not salty, so if you take something in grams in this institution, be sure to ask how much this dish will weigh in the end, if you do not do this, they will calculate you 2 times more in grams, then do not prove anything, of all the ordered dishes the tastiest there was a lamb, the rest leaves much to be desired in terms of taste, and the situation is also unpleasant when they want to deceive their guests and weigh the dish 2 times more, chasing a one-time benefit
A very pleasant place, delicious food, pleasant service. The food was cooked quickly, the portions are good and the price is reasonable. Khachipuri boats are very tasty! I recommend it!
We visited this cafe, it was recommended to us upon arrival. I don't understand the delights, an ordinary cafe, nothing ordinary. I do not know, the taste and color of the markers are different, we ordered mountains. a frying pan with chicken, lamb and fried cheese. The "frying pan" is not tasty, the meat is dry, not a gram of sauce...The grilled cheese was almost floating in the oil in the pan. The mutton is delicious, that's it, and that's it.
Maybe they win at kebabs, I don't know...By the way, there is no taulet. Visitors have to go to the park.
We were on an excursion, while part of the group was in the caves, we walked around New Athos.It was half an hour to the bus and we went to have a snack in this wonderful place.Cozy atmosphere, insanely delicious food and sincere hospitality.
To all those who are in New Athos, I recommend that you visit this insanely delicious place without fail.Thanks!
This is the best cafe in New Athos! Two years ago, my husband and I celebrated the 25th anniversary of our wedding. The hostess of the cafe met and fed us then. Everything was sincere and delicious, like mom's, and she also treated us to a delicious dessert. This year we decided to look into the cafe again, as we have the kindest memories of this place. Unfortunately, the hostess of the cafe was not found this time,
but the girls who met us turned out to be just as welcoming and fussy. Thank you for such a welcome, we will definitely come back. The kitchen is excellent, the staff is positive, friendly, caring, the interior is cozy. The cafe is almost always full, there are no empty tables, so it can be difficult to get in right away, you have to wait for a table to be available (we just don't go to other cafes when we visit New Athos). Cafe "Delicious like mom's" is love at first sight. The hostess of the cafe deserves special attention - the kindest, most hospitable person. Be sure to visit this place
I don't quite understand who taught these people how to cook, they are not only self-taught, they also didn't learn how to use the Internet to somehow look at the recipes and turn on their heads
We stopped by with friends in New Athos, decided to eat local food. According to the recommendations, they came in Delicious like Mom's. The place is terrible, the food is disgusting. The hostess spoke very rudely, was constantly rude, does not like Russians (as it turned out), constantly turned to personalities and insulted. Please do not visit this institution, save your time and your nerves. I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT!!!
I asked to put the remaining 3 slices of pizza with me, they brought a cellophane bag, the most ordinary, small one. Cool, thanks.

I only ate a burger here, I liked it, it was juicy and delicious. If you are passing through this place with an excursion, then I recommend it as a lunch option. There were no problems with the gastrointestinal tract after that) The potatoes are also good, the butter is not rancid.Served with a burger and sauce too

My experience was unsuccessful - for the first time in my life, they brought me leaky khinkali and convinced me that this was normal and would do. Maybe the second new restaurant across the street has better service. And by the way, there is no toilet here and they offer to go to another restaurant across the street. Therefore, go straight to the new N ° 2, do not suffer
It's quite tasty. However, we waited a very long time for our order to be accepted. Then it turned out that they had forgotten about my second course. A company was sitting nearby, making loud noises and drinking alcohol. So he left.
I do not recommend it
We had dinner with my son yesterday.
Comfortably. That's all.
From the ordered:
First of all, they brought a glass of wine and a non-alcoholic mojito to the child - this is lemonade from a bottle decorated with a mint branch, yes, delicious lemonade, but not for 200 rubles! This is too much!
Chebureks - they did not mold them themselves, these are frozen semi-
finished products 👎 lyulya- did not feel the taste of meat, after the chebureks, the impression was created that they were also not of their own production, well, it is impossible to cook so tasteless yourself, the child did not eat.
Grilled cheese is delicious, not enough - four small pieces per serving.
Well, khachapur is a boat with an egg, also without complaints.
I also wanted khinkali, but they forgot about them, they no longer waited, they went hungry to another place, leaving 1600 here
Well, such a thing!
I definitely don't recommend it.
