Overall, the interior looks wonderful. I was only confused by the design of the counter where the coffee machine is located. The black and white square tiles and the overall dimensions of that corner don't fit into the main interior a bit.
According to the items that were ordered : noodles for 4/10 , there's a little bit of sauce, noodles with a ribbon are too huge, shrimp needed either more in quantity or in size. The filling itself in the noodles was either not properly cooked or the seasonings were wrong; the pizza was on tomato sauce, except for it, the meat and cheese tasteless, and the dough was very fluffy around the edges and, due to the small amount of filling, it was dry to eat closer to the edge.
On drinks: we took tea in a glass teapot, not bad, you can take it, but we were confused by the fact that we were not warned in advance about the positions that were missing, both tea and food.
The place at the entrance, where the hanger along the window is either removed or the angle of condensation is changed, otherwise it normally blows from above.
In general, if they review most of the menu items and introduce innovations, then the quality will improve. The 4-star rating is purely for the comfort inside and the quiet environment.

It's a very tasty menu, I come here for breakfast from time to time. Pleasant atmosphere. And very tasty mulled wine.

I wanted to have lunch at the restaurant. Since there was no KBJU layout, I asked for time to think a little. As a result, after 30 minutes, they just ran past me and didn't react in any way. It's just "perfect"!
After a while, and my grumbling, they found the layout for me, approached me, and also brought the order. So it got nicer.

Good evening. We had lunch today with a friend at this institution for the first time. I didn't finish any of the dishes I ordered.…The soup of the day is pea soup (the expectation is that it will be an ordinary light lunch soup, the reality is MASHED potatoes, in which there is only one name for peas, and one smoked seasoning tastes like it) it is simply impossible to eat. A dish called "hello heartburn". For hot couscous with cod and tomatoes-the same mess with lots of sauces. My friend has a "casserole with chicken", potatoes mixed with chicken, AGAIN under a pile of sauce. Why serve such dishes for lunch? After which you get not energy, but heartburn?!

We were at the institution the other day. Order: tea, soup, second course. There was a failure from the first take-out, the waiter mixed up our orders, while when we clarified the tastes of the teapots, the girl replied, they say, she just brought it, and then we ourselves must determine which one. It's a strange position, okay. Soups were brought and after half a minute the second one. Who does that? As a result, while they were trying to quickly stuff the soup into themselves, the hot cooled down and was not so tasty. The dishes may be delicious, but we couldn't enjoy them. And at the end of 10 minutes they tried to get the waiter to pay, they even shouted loudly, the reaction was 0. I had to go to her myself. We've been to this place before and liked everything, but after such service we probably won't go in anymore.

I am extremely disappointed with the service in this establishment. The staff looks overworked, which directly affects the quality of the service – it seems that your visit is inconvenient for them.
Mistakes in orders are especially unacceptable – they bring completely different dishes that were ordered. They react to comments without proper attention. There is no elementary sequence of serving: hot dishes appear before cold appetizers, drinks are served at the wrong time, desserts are brought at the same time as the main dishes.
Recommendation to management: review the work schedule of employees and the order control system. I understand that the staff is getting tired, but this should not affect the quality of guest service.

It's so delicious... we ordered borscht, tartare, and cheesecakes. My admiration for this tartarus. I ate this dish in Lithuania as well, you have an unreal love. I also liked the serving of borscht. And the prices are so adequate, the staff is polite. The air conditioners work well. Thanks for everything) I'll have to come to you for tartar now.

I have been to this institution 3-4 times. Everything was always fine. But yesterday, when I visited him with a friend, I was a little disappointed. There are practically no hot ones, there are no desserts... Well, let's say. But I didn't like the pork steak with mushrooms. There were streaks of fat (I did not think that I could fry such a "steak" myself in a frying pan). Well, even the steak, the mushrooms were sooo salty! I really regretted not telling the waitress about it. Excessive indecision and love of mushrooms did not allow me to do this.

Periodically, there are no basic ingredients, such as beef. There are great dishes, but there are completely unsuccessful ones: draniki with equal beef or a super-salty omelet with salmon.

The music is unpleasant and loud, which makes it uncomfortable to sit in an institution, the salads are delicious, the pizzas are greasy, the appearance wants the best, but I liked the dough itself, and the biggest disappointment is the beef striploin steak with mashed potatoes, cold, barely alive, as if it stood for a couple of days and was warmed up and brought to the table.
There are no special questions about the service.
We thought we would have a good rest , sit down , but alas 😔

Dear team! This review is a cry from the soul, not a goal to ruin your reputation. I have been your frequent guest since the opening. And you are the only ones per square kilometer where you can spend a pleasant evening without leaving the area. However, responding on Instagram "let's see right now", including lime for corona extra beer in the bill, looking at a smoking waiter right at the central exit is not very good. And you've become a worse cook, I must admit. Bring back your quality in everything. I would like to come back to you again, but given all the above, there is no such desire.

We have been to this institution several times in the hope that something will get better, but unfortunately not. The service is at a sad level, the food is not very good either, the interior is outdated. The steaks are dry, not fried, the meat is not tasty. The prices are simply unreasonably high. We noticed that desserts have appeared. Visually, they are not attractive, they are coveted, apparently they stand for several days. It's a disappointment.

I gave a chance to this npdrlusmen several times. The coffee is overcooked with a real burnt taste. This time I ordered bruschetta from the lunch menu with mushrooms, the bread itself is dry, it is not donated, but dry and sour, the mushrooms are cold, although it was clearly understood that this is a warm dish. Pasta with tasteless pork and icy vegetables again, but damn why, I'm on a hot dish..

The quality of the dishes is not necessary one time at a time.They ordered a burger with torn beef, brought a cold sandwich, cold meat, it feels like they took it out of the refrigerator and didn't even bother to warm it up, and why would they eat it anyway.There is no needle at all, it is stale.
I was only pleased with the potatoes, delicious and hot.
While we were eating, midges were circling above us.So-so, of course, the pleasure of visiting this institution.

Very tasty dishes, but the coffee is very bad, tea is generally 0/10 to throw a tea bag into a mug from home and bring it to the client??? . Ramen is very tasty, strong 4/5 - there is no limit to perfection. We will definitely come again. I will recommend it!

I was very hungry. I ordered a pizza. I just sat down and washed my hands, they brought it. It took about 5 minutes (!). It was not a pleasure to eat it, and to put it mildly. It was probably bought at a nearby store, and just warmed up, while adding a fair amount of ketchup. More grateful customers for you. But not in my face.

It wasn't the first time I came, more or less everything was fine. But on December 26, an incompetent waitress came across in the afternoon, who did not bring the menu for a long time, and when paying, she did not ask what bill we needed and the payment method. She knocked out the bill as it was convenient for her and when asked to redo it, she said in a boorish tone that we should have warned her about everything ourselves)) I don't want to visit you anymore

We came by chance when we were walking with our daughter and wife.
A weekday. Monday.
There weren't many people.
The interior is beautiful, restrained and modern. There are greens present. A beautiful combination with tiles in the kitchen area. The bathroom is neat, clean, there are enough consumables (soap, paper towels, etc.).
We ordered soup of the day (kholodnik), vegetable salad with smoked sour cream, mashed potatoes with a cutlet for a child, cod with baked vegetables and risotto with torn beef, a glass of wine. The wine list is small, but the wine is not bad. South Africa was pleased. While we were waiting, my daughter 2.5 danced to the music. The music is really very unobtrusive.
By food:
1) the refrigerator is just a bomb. Creamy consistency, very gentle, sour cream, refreshing. With a pleasant sourness and beetroot flavor.
2) the salad is interesting due to the smoked sour cream. Fresh vegetables.
3) the cod was too salty for our taste, but the fish is fresh, tasty and rich.
4) mashed potatoes and cutlets are standard. An absolutely ordinary dish. But that's what it is for the child.
5) risotto with torn beef was from the regular menu. It raised the most questions. The cook got into the aldente, but too much olive oil. The parmesan is unsaturated. The torn beef was very similar to an ordinary stew. Rice in the Navy, I would say. Satisfying, not bad, but a standard trap, expectations from the name / reality.
Separately, I would like to note a very professional waiter, and it is also very cool that on a very hot summer day, the first thing that was brought without question was three glasses of water from the institution. Respect.
To summarize: an atmospheric place, with great music, modern interior. Pleasant staff, very affordable prices (with wine they gave 66 rubles for 3). I definitely recommend it for lunch, a snack with the family, or just a drink of wine.
I will definitely come in to try the coffee.

We were at lunch. Bean soup, pork and mashed potatoes are good. Chicken salad is so-so: there are too many onions and dressing. The teapot with aloe was bad: there was simply no taste, no matter how much you insist on it. Pork was brought instead of the ordered fish.

We chose this cafe specifically for breakfast, the dishes in the photo looked very nice. As many people write in the reviews, the quality of the dishes does not match the cost. We are faced with the same thing. We have never seen such a terrible lack of scramble with salmon anywhere else! This dish is not for 18BYN, salmon was not even next to smoked meat...note to the cook, scramble is prepared without milk (and you should write about it in the menu, for example, people with lactose intolerance can ruin their whole day). Overall, the place is pleasant, the waiter is very attentive and polite.

We have been looking for a place for breakfast for a long time (from 10 am). As a result, we came here, it's a pity that this place disappointed us in food. Toasts (sandwiches) used a very thick piece of bread and after its heat treatment the edges were hard (it was not convenient to eat, and all the bread clogged the taste of the filling)
The club sandwich was made of cold filling (((
The service was at a high level, the staff was friendly

The food is good, the interior is interesting, it is generally cozy, the staff is good, but the prices for such a place are too high. Apparently, there is not such a large flow of visitors that you need to beat off the rent / po / ingredients at a higher price.
In the city center in the same khinkal prices are slightly lower.

There are not many places to eat on Malinovka, but here the service is pleasant and the atmosphere is pleasant. There are a couple of delicious items on the menu, alas, the breakfasts are limping on 2 legs. With better dinners. Everything would be fine if it weren't for an interesting case that happened recently. We went to eat soup with a girl, she ordered chicken broth. He was very sour. They called the officer, asked if the soup was fresh or not. The officer took the soup to the kitchen, returned, said everything was OK, it was just a ginger-lemon dressing. But they can redo it without her. They redid it, brought a new soup. It's very tasty. They left satisfied. Today I think I'll come in and eat this wonderful soup, I already know the trick. I come and order soup, I tell the officer: no refueling. To which I received an answer: that they don't do it like that(. I sat sad, thought what to order, I want some soup. The second officer came up, I still decided to order chicken soup. They brought it quickly. And he's not sour, he's like that other one, I'm happy, and I understand: that the ends don't fit together. Either the marriage was stolen and they tried to cheat, or the spoiled soup and they tried to cheat. I'd rather not take any chances here, wouldn't you?

Good afternoon. I stopped by this cozy cafe for lunch a couple of times and was dissatisfied both times. The first time I ordered soup and salad, the bacon in both dishes was overcooked to the point of not chewing. And today I ordered pancakes with bacon and sour cream. The shingles are super thin and overcooked, the bacon is simply overcooked.
It's a shame, in general, I like the cafe and there are no questions about dishes that do not require frying)))
