Last weekend I had the opportunity to visit the ZINAIDA restaurant, located in a new, actively developing area of the city. The location was chosen extremely well: modern high-rise buildings create a contrast with the cozy atmosphere of the restaurant, and convenient parking facilitates the visit.
Already on the approaches to the restaurant, you can feel the thoughtfulness of the design: the surrounding area is decorated in the style of cozy alleys and lantern arches, and at the entrance guests are greeted by an elegant Christmas tree, which creates a festive mood.
The ZINAIDA restaurant is a spacious two–storey establishment where you are immediately greeted by a reception with friendly staff who are ready to escort you to your table. The interior has an atmosphere of warmth and comfort: the mixed rustic style is accentuated by a variety of decorative elements – porcelain figurines, exquisite plates decorating the walls.
Menu and service
The restaurant's menu turned out to be very diverse, with an emphasis on specialty dishes. We were served by a waitress named Bernara – competent, attentive and professional. She not only gave comprehensive recommendations, but also helped to make a choice.
We tried several dishes:
Horse meat ribs, stewed for 10 hours in a special way and baked in a wood-burning oven before serving. The dish was accompanied by the chef's signature sauce, which perfectly complemented its taste.
Stuffed peppers served on a creamy potato pillow. The finest balance of textures and flavors.
The signature salad vinaigrette is a modern interpretation of the classics with the addition of miniature mushrooms, which pleasantly surprised.
Lightly salted cucumbers, exquisitely decorated with pea sprouts, are a light but bright snack.
The compliment from the restaurant was beetroot caviar and Cobra sauce – a spicy combination of fresh tomatoes, horseradish and garlic, which added an accent to the meal. The bread basket consisted of fragrant black and white bread.
Of the drinks, we chose jasmine tea, which perfectly completed the dinner.
General impressions
Each dish was distinguished by a high level of execution, starting from the taste nuances and ending with the serving. The service is impeccable, the atmosphere is cozy and conducive to long conversations.
The ZINAIDA restaurant left an exceptionally positive impression. This place is ideal for both a friendly meeting and a cozy family dinner. Of course, I recommend you to visit!

I love this place and there is simply no better place!
A delicious meal for adequate money - yes, a child to play in a CLEAN game room, with a WONDERFUL babysitter - yes, to enjoy a cozy atmosphere - yes
And the service is like a guest. I like that I have never felt annoyed that they come up often or communicate impolitely.
But the most favorite is the menu. Portion size, appearance and aftertaste - that's what I'll come back for again and again.
It's nice to see how people come here to celebrate family holidays, as I think this is the best family restaurant in Tashkent. Thanks!

It is very cozy, beautiful and delicious!
I was pleasantly surprised by the Zinaida restaurant!
The food is very tasty, the interior is great and the atmosphere is great! There is also a children's room with a free babysitter, which is very nice)) and children's workshops are held every Sunday!
An absolute recommendation!

An entourage place in terms of interior and decoration. It's really nice inside, I want to look at the details. And of course, we need to work on the menu, because there are no grammars in it, there are no pictures and we have to check everything with the waiters. I took a burger. For Russian money, this is more than 1000 rubles. The burger is small. The cutlet is dry. They did not ask about the degree of roasting. I didn't like it. The chicken, which is with chestnuts and spinach, was a little dry. Therefore, it is expensive to eat, but the recipe needs to be cut. It is clear that they wanted to do well, but so far there are questions.

We gathered with the girls today, decided for a long time, chose this place because of the playground. The salads are delicious, but the portions are very small, well, there are no questions about them. Here are the second courses and the pizza is very strange, a little dry, it was not delicious. The check is above 1000.000, for a couple of hot dishes, 4 types of salad, 3 types of dessert, tea and compote, I think it's not worth it) And it was very noisy, loud music, they didn't hear themselves, they had to yell, for such establishments I think quiet pleasant music should play.
Among the advantages: a playground, a room for mother and child, you can safely change a diaper and feed, as well as polite waiters and interior, dishes, everything is very beautiful and tasteful! But I think I'm unlikely to come in a second time. Usually the interior attracts once, the second time I go in to have a meal, but it's a pity to eat and pay dearly😅
I live opposite, I couldn't come in, and often reading negative reviews, I thought I definitely wouldn't come in😅 But for some reason today, my friends and I decided, despite the reviews, to go and sit, view and try!

I usually don't leave reviews.
By the way, the kitchen as a whole is very good. I tried almost everything on the menu. Some dishes from the "Cousin" are missing, for example beef rib.
I regularly order fast food at home:
The burger is definitely the best in Tashkent. The guys do not have enough Almaty experience (it has already closed) Craft&Kitchen. If we had clarified their fat proportions, we would have gone head and shoulders ahead.
Pizza is also the best in Tashkent, no one can get closer than 5 steps. Believe me, I've tried a lot.
For Tash, a solid five in all directions: interior, service, food.
Lokeyshin is really so-so)
But as it is.

I visited the restaurant recently and was delighted! The interior of the restaurant is simply amazing - a cozy atmosphere, retro design and pleasant colors create the perfect place for dinner. The staff was very attentive and friendly, the service was top notch. And most importantly, the kitchen was pleased with real masterpieces! The dishes were not only beautifully served, but also incredibly delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant for those who appreciate good cuisine, pleasant interior and excellent service.

We realized late yesterday and started looking for a place to sit. It was time for corporate parties, so all our favorite places were packed to capacity. They offered Zinaida, a strange name for a restaurant, as for me, (I had not been there before) and surprisingly, a very beautiful restaurant with excellent cuisine, but it was half full.
As you might guess, they are supposedly prepared according to the recipes of a certain grandmother Zina. However, Baba Zina really knew a lot about food, as everything was very tasty and with a lot of emphasis on Russian cuisine. The bar menu is varied, although it seemed 10-15% more expensive than the competitors. The service is high-quality and only 10% is a plus instead of the traditional 20% for competitors, although Björn Regen has as many as 10 points up to 0%)
In general, I definitely recommend visiting at least once, by the way, there is a children's area, a babysitter can look after the children, but, alas, only until 10 pm, which is a minus as for me. The restaurant closes by 12, which is also a minus during the holidays. But still 5 stars so far

The restaurant is not bad, but, in my opinion, slightly overrated. There is, of course, its own style, there is its own "kitchen", but the prices....! Prices certainly do not smell of democracy) The menu is quite capacious, but there is no highlight, there is nothing unique. Even despite the very peculiar presentation of dishes and their original names. And the location of the restaurant is also not the most top-end. No, I will not say that in general in some kind of Darkness, but nevertheless not the Navel of the Earth, of course) the landscapes around are solid construction sites. Add the road here as well, as after the bombing, and you will already think about whether it is worth sawing there.
To SUM UP, IT'S AN AMATEUR INSTITUTION.

A low-level restaurant. We waited for the order for at least 45 minutes and these were the breakfasts that were ordered in the morning during the breakfast period - it would seem that everything should work clearly.
The food is tasteless - dry, unsalted, sugary. The fish is cherished. The coffee is old, overcooked.
With an externally beautiful interior, a low level is felt. Unfriendly waiters. Staff walking around the hall with mops. Cheap Chinese soap is spilled in Zelinski cans in the toilet, or it's some kind of fake Zelinski.

An interesting conceptual interior, as I understood it, reflecting the connection of generations in the work and in the life of the founder of The Chef Group, Artyom Marchenko. The same idea is on the menu. From the main menu, we tried borscht, turkey fillet with potatoes, burger and chicken soup. Food for 3-4. The balance is not observed, either too salty or a lot of spices. The turkey is a little dry and it has clearly been overexposed on the fire. Prices like in Moscow - there is nothing to compare with yet - this is the first place where we came to have dinner in Tashkent. The service is almost premium, but unobtrusive. Clean toilets with Zielenski&Rosen products - just wow)) There is a high chair for children, a playroom with a babysitter, but there is no children's menu (In general, everything is perfect except food. Maybe that's how we got there. Let's go back and try other positions.

The place is very beautiful and cozy.
The staff is amazing.
We were here recently, had dinner with my wife. Everything was very tasty.
The waiters are polite and kind. They immediately asked if we were allergic. They helped with the choice.
The hostess girls were escorted to the most cozy table.
The kitchen is well done! It was very tasty and fast. We advise everyone to visit this institution, you will not regret it)

everything was ruined by one of the girls who met, one with dark hair, the other with light tanned shoulders like a body builder, she looked at me from head to toe like a cheap uncultured security guard at a 90s disco.
Probably a relative of a familiar institution, so she is so tactless,
let it be simpler, and teach her to say hello and goodbye

I want to share my impressions and thank all the staff of the ZINAIDA family restaurant, I can only tell you about the evening, positive emotions!
Everything served by the waiters was beyond praise, the service was at the European level, the aroma of home gastronomy wafted from the serving of all dishes, the desire to try out the entire menu:- it did not allow, only saturation...Everyone was delighted with the interior, everything was expensive and rich, in a word (a beautiful museum)
I advise everyone!Visit and plunge into an exquisite project created by the masters of the restaurant business!

A beautiful, cozy and pleasant interior is perhaps the only plus of this place. But it is unreasonably expensive for ordinary food. In the photo, the cheapest tomato salad is just chopped one and a half tomatoes with butter, 45 thousand. A check for several dishes with alcohol will tend to 500 thousand, but it's not worth it. Price/quality loses to Novikov restaurants. There is something to strive for

The service is disgustingly long. There were 9 people sitting in a large company, after ordering, the waiter did not repeat the order, as a result it turned out that some people's orders were missed. They brought 7 people, two sat, waited hungry, then it turned out that no one was cooking.

We were at this restaurant today, ordered dishes from the lenten menu. The salads and soups were delicious, there are no questions about them. When the second courses were brought and put on the table, it began to smell. I thought I was imagining it... It turned out that it did not seem so, the potatoes with mushrooms smelled like that. The invited waiter insisted that this is exactly what fried mushrooms smell like. I tried the mushroom... But my body refused to eat it. The receptionist came up and said that there were not only champignons, but also porcini mushrooms... The number did not pass: we are from the Moscow region and at the end of summer we eat potatoes with fried porcini mushrooms all the time (we collect them ourselves in the forest).
As a result, the restaurant did not recognize the fact of the spoiled dish, no one apologized. But they did not include the potatoes in the bill. And thanks for that.
My husband also ordered dumplings with cherries. It turned out that they were not with cherries, but with strawberries. Although there was not a word about strawberries on the menu. The waiter foamed at the mouth and proved that it was 100% cherry. The question was fundamental, because my husband is allergic to strawberries until hospitalization.
We will not return to this restaurant.

The cozy atmosphere, very good cuisine, at least the steak was cooked perfectly, the salads also kept the bar of the institution, the only disappointment was probably the lemonade, it was made really well, but the taste did not go too far for me, but otherwise it is probably one of the best places for family evenings.

Pros: the expected menu, good quality of cooked food
Cons:
an untrained and tactless waiter, the price / quality ratio is overestimated (extremely). Cream soup goes without croutons!!! or the bread included in the feed. The pate plate is OK, but again it goes WITHOUT bread 😱
Atomosphere : the interior is very cool, cozy. But the music, as on the bar counter, is absolutely not suitable for the institution. Instead of relaxing and communicating, you have to eat quickly to the beat, pay and leave. 🏃♀️
Well, the location itself: in the middle of a construction site; you were in a hurry to open up, the view outside the window is also important....for such an expensive establishment !!!

A very expensive restaurant, but they spoiled the evening with their service - some of the dishes were not brought, they had to run after the waiters all over the floor and ask what they did not have time to deliver. They asked to call the administrator - he also did not come, I also had to run after him. Everything turned into a conflict, to give them their due, they took over the account. But a spoiled evening will not pay off - it would have been better if we had paid, but left well-fed and satisfied. In general, it turned out very insulting, they wanted to go to this restaurant for a long time and went as if for a holiday, but left sad, with an unpleasant aftertaste of some incomprehensible swearing (((

I didn't like the place, the check is above average, the kitchen doesn't make me want to come back and try something else because I didn't try anything delicious there. Olivier with sausage, for this price tag it is strange that there is boiled sausage.The menu is written with martadella, but in fact martadella is boiled sausage XD)))-Marketing! A colleague said that the herring is not what it should be based on the name of the variety on the menu, I can't say anything myself, I don't eat fish, he didn't like the taste. The steak had some veins, I didn't like it, I didn't eat it in the end. The mushrooms in the pan were normal. The saur was delicious, the desserts too, the staff was good. One of the glasses was dirty. I can't recommend it, but I can also say that the place is bad too,
