Delicious, elegant and comfortable. Good attention. I also recommend the hotel is wonderful.

It is certainly an interesting place, and one of the most atmospheric in Minsk.
Be sure to visit at least once.
Excellent staff, well-honed service.
Thoughtful menu. The feeling of new tastes (within the framework of Minsk) is guaranteed.
These are the advantages.
To the cons.
A small space. Of course, I would like more space. The colors and interior design make the perception of space somewhat easier.
Meal. The portions are modest. Prices are "higher than average". Therefore, I would like to not find fault with the "food".
But there are shoals.
For an average restaurant, I would keep silent.
But this is a place with a history!
This is one of the best establishments in Minsk... How can you spoil a branded flank steak, (which lay for a day in cognac and other cool ingredients and got a light chocolate flavor) ..???
A beautiful serving "on fire" kills all the subtlety of taste and the meat begins to taste bitter, as if burnt.
It's the same story with grilled mushrooms. The taste (and appearance) seemed to have burned out.
Get better, and we will be your regular visitors :)

The food is very tasty, the serving is beautiful, the portions are average, enough to eat. Excellent service, polite waiters. They cook quickly. It is very convenient that the veranda on the street is not located directly on the footpath, so that all passing people look into the plate. Prices are above average, not cheap enough. But in general, the price corresponds to the quality. Convenient location in the center.

We tried very tasty pancakes here, a wonderful combination with red caviar. Drinks include a soft, pleasant latte and good tea. Not bad desserts (we tried three out of five), moderately sweet and light, but there was no sphere in our visit.
The restaurant has a beautiful design, but differs little from similar ones. The dishes are simple, on ordinary white plates, but everything is clean and tidy, the staff is polite.

Favorite restaurant in Minsk. Centrally located, excellent service, courteous staff, beautiful interior.
The food is delicious, but the portions seem too small. Good breakfasts.
The price tag is Moscow))
But at least you understand what you are giving this money for.

The restaurant was chosen as the end of the day of celebration of our 30th anniversary of our life together)! I was interested in the bold menu. To say that this is a worthy end to our day is to say nothing! The restaurant is simply gorgeous! Very beautiful interior, cleanliness, snow-white tablecloths, cute interior things, sterile toilet. We came after a day of all sorts of activities and our appearance may not have corresponded to this place, but the staff greeted us politely with a smile and our concern about this dissipated! We felt surrounded by care! The service is on top! The bartender makes a very tasty lemonade. The salads with duck and beef were great, but when the hot ones arrived, I was really shocked! I have never seen such a delicious octopus! I love octopus and always try it. I tried it in Greece, Italy and Spain, but this octopus was tastier, more tender and a wonderful side dish not only complemented these feelings, but also strengthened them! My husband took venison cutlets and was also delighted! Many thanks to Chef Stepan Ostroukh for such a dish! And when the dessert was brought to us from the restaurant with congratulations, we were so touched, right to tears! After all, I mentioned our date once! Thank you so much for our evening! Now we will look forward to seeing you again! For such a meal, a distance of 250 km is not an obstacle)!

The place and the interior are atmospheric. A white-haired, elegant man works at the bar, which adds atmosphere to this place with a history. The waiters are very helpful and pleasant. The portions are small, so feel free to order a salad, hot, dessert. Eat everything. Men will need a supplement))
In general, I recommend you to visit. Perfect for dinner with the family (there is a children's menu).
And what would you like to improve:
- if you book a table in advance, I would like a parking space for a car to be reserved too.
- Add more vegetarian dishes to the menu.

At the cozy boutique hotel with the same name there is a restaurant "Zalkind Kitchen" - a place where visitors get a real gastronomic pleasure, coupled with cordiality and high—quality service. I can't single out a single dish. Everything, absolutely everything is insanely delicious and beautiful. Many thanks to all the employees of this wonderful institution! "Zalkind Kitchen" prosperity and commercial success!

This time there will be more words about the service than about the dishes. Still, the institution has a claim.
I was passing by, I decided to drink tea with dessert. I bought a large number of enthusiastic reviews about the institution. There were few people on the day off, both in the hall and on the veranda. First, I went inside, was met at the entrance by a polite waiter, offered to sit down in a restaurant or on the street. I preferred the fresh air. The receptionist was supposed to take me to the table there, but it was more important for him to straighten the tablecloths on the tables than to say hello and offer a place to a guest. Even when I had already chosen a place and sat down, he passed by several times without any attention. As a result, the same waiter who met inside the restaurant had already managed to come to the veranda and offer a menu.
I ordered chocolate bavarese in cherry glaze, green tea. The dessert looks interesting, I liked that it does not taste cloying. The portion is small, but enough to have a snack while enjoying a warm day and watching passers-by.
The impression remained contradictory, and the service smeared it: the waiter is as courteous as possible, even too much, the receptionist has none. It is unclear in the end what it should be. There are no questions about dessert. The receipt turned out to be for 28 BYN.

The children gave a dinner for the wedding anniversary. To say that my husband and I were satisfied is not enough. We are absolutely delighted. A very cozy place, attentive staff, and chef Stepan is just a talent. The dinner was interactive, we learned a lot about European cuisine, the dishes themselves are beyond praise. We are glad that there are such talented culinary masters in our country. Rating 1,000,000 out of five stars available here

Mixed feelings. That is, if it were a simple city restaurant, it would be no way ... but the best chef in Minsk, an application for haute cuisine. Then the demand is higher. Duck sous-vide is very bad. The cooking technology implies the impeccable softness and tenderness of the meat, and, of course, the aroma. The duck meat had no flavors, not even salt, and was hard to chew. The skin had to be spat out. Gratin is wonderful. The flank steak is just as tasteless. Although the beef in the salad was perfectly cooked. Pumpkin soup and other salads are original, the author plays with the ingredients. This is a matter of taste, which is pointless to argue about. Wonderful desserts, but there are really problems with tea) I saw that there were already reviews about it. An excellent manager, but at the same time weak waiters who should be able to recommend, know the dishes and always bring delicious granola with a spoon... In a restaurant of this level. A generous portion of the freshest sour cream is served to the cheesecakes, while the jam / jam is smeared with a thin pattern on the plate and a dried film "reaches" the guest, into which nothing can get wet. Here is such a tedious and detailed review from a gastro-guest traveling the world for food:)

A balm for the soul of a hungry gourmet! I always go there for positive emotions after a difficult day. We are especially pleased with the excellent children's menu, as well as attentive service: they easily cope with such non-trivial orders from capricious customers as making an aperol syringe without an aperol 🤭

The hotel is excellent, the staff is pleasant. We arrived in Minsk by car, we were pleasantly surprised that the receptionist helped us park the car - the hotel has parking spaces nearby. They did not have to be paid separately. They are cleaned well, the beds are also comfortable. We'll come back later.

A wonderful hotel! Very conveniently located in the very center of Minsk. From here you can walk around the most interesting places of the city. A real boutique hotel: all rooms are designer, all different. Amazing staff. Very cute handmade bunnies with the words "do not disturb" and "clean the room, please." The room has everything: a Bork hair dryer, a miracle makeup remover, tea/coffee. The restaurant is above all praise! And a very exquisite wine list. I'm afraid to praise too much, otherwise next time I won't get a number :))))

We had a perfect evening. The entire staff was as friendly and welcoming as possible, the sets from the Chef were magical, I highly recommend trying veal tartare and salad with lightly salted salmon. And be sure to leave the strength for dessert with blueberries. You can focus on the photo in the review.
P.S. The interior corresponds to the level of the institution, for lovers of not only delicious cuisine, but also a beautiful atmosphere, I heartily recommend it.

Feel free to give the guys five! The service is excellent, the dishes are of high quality! I have my own preferences for taste, maybe I don't fully agree with the execution, but it's exactly to everyone's taste!! I stayed at the hotel, so I was able to appreciate both the breakfasts and the main menu! A separate respect for the waiter Andrey!🤝

The rating is very high, I support all negative reviews. Tea is just colored water with bleach, it was impossible to eat the salad ordered for dinner. It just can't convey how tasteless it is! The waiter ruined the evening because she was very arrogant and pretentious and rude! she imposed on us a choice of wine from 2500 tr. per glass (a girl with blonde hair, after talking with whom we understood: Zalkind- the bottom). We took a sip of tea, tasted the salad, paid and left. I didn't even want to talk…
Breakfast (unfortunately it was prepaid, we decided to give it a chance) - the same chlorine tea and the same "service", porridge and pancakes with cottage cheese were liked. But we don't want to repeat it anymore.
We stayed at the hotel- the hotel is beautiful-10 points! But the restaurant is the worst of all where we were in Minsk and Grodno.

Pleasant muted music and an administrator greet you in the halls. There are beautiful Rona dishes on the table and an interior that is mesmerizing. We were at breakfast, the child tried everything. It's beautiful and delicious. I recommend that you definitely come in and get not only gastronomic pleasure, but also aesthetic pleasure from the service and interior.

The breakfast is sufficient, I took a continental one, the slicing and baking are fresh, I did not go to the restaurant (personally, the kitchen is not suitable for me because of food allergies, I prefer a simpler and more understandable diet).
The interior is beautiful, but the single room is too small, thanks for the big TV.
Beautiful ceramics on the staircase windows!

A great classic restaurant in the historical center of Minsk! I am an infrequent guest here, but I am pleasantly surprised every time. Excellent and attentive service, excellent and balanced cuisine with original presentation. I would also like to mention a bold decision with OpenKitchen. The chefs are highly qualified professionals. Thanks guys!

One of the advantages is a beautiful interior. Unusual serving of dishes.Modest portions with beautifully spread sauce on a plate. Well, it's okay, it was delicious for us. But service is something. We have not seen such pathos even on the Patrick. Inattention, arrogance and not the ability to create a pleasant atmosphere. It feels like the waiters are blue bloods who are forced to serve plebeian customers. The restaurant is always empty, now it's clear why. We stayed at this hotel, planned to have dinner there, after watching enough bloggers and reading reviews, but an afternoon visit was enough. We have dinner at other establishments. I will not recommend this restaurant to my friends.

A good hotel, the most delicious breakfasts in Minsk. Friendly staff and good location. The rooms have an unusual author's interior. One of the disadvantages is the lack of an elevator. We stayed twice, we will come again.

A nice Zalkind restaurant in a small Zalkind hotel in the Old Town on a quiet Revolutionary street.
Memorable interior, restaurant menu, courteous service.
There was a lot of time, I took a set with wine accompaniment. It turned out to be a little uneven, but overall good.
The breakfast menu looks attractive.

We need to work on the service in this restaurant.
It is not clear why they are asked to choose breakfast when checking in, we thought to speed up the service.
No, they will come up to you in the morning and ask you what you want, even if you ordered it on time.
Perhaps they will lose the Poached meat on the way, after 20-30 minutes it will be fixed and coffee will be brought later, when breakfast is almost finished.
And "such a sweat" every day!

The hotel is very atmospheric, the staff is responsive, the service is excellent and not intrusive. Very quiet, despite the proximity to pubs and a pedestrian street. For fans of small hotels, I boldly recommend it. Good location in the city center. Everything is clean and pleasant. The kitchen in your own restaurant is a solid four plus. The optimal price/quality ratio.

We booked a table a month in advance to celebrate our wedding anniversary …
We wanted to try a tasting set! We called 2 times on the day of booking and as a result we arrive and are told that there is no item from the tasting set and it cannot be replaced …
We asked the waiter then to recommend something from the menu to which we did not receive a clear answer, but only "uh-uh, uh-uh, uh-uh"
We didn 't understand why such good grades were given!
We were most disappointed in this institution, thank you for a wonderful evening !!!

I was at breakfast, on the summer porch. There are no complaints about the taste, but about the serving of the dish...when your dish is carried in an open form across a street where cars drive (albeit rarely), this is not only an unpleasant sight, but it also does not comply with sanitary standards. And breakfasts at prices not from the budget segment.
