I do not recommend it! The restaurant itself has a history, disassembled in Finland, brought in parts and assembled on site. That's where the advantages end. We came together at 17.00, the load was no more than 10%, the waiter was waited for about 15-20 minutes. There are some basic Abkhazian dishes on the menu, but there are no basic Abkhazian dishes (very strange, because we arrived in Abkhazia). They said that they did not serve wine by the glass, okay, OK, they asked for a bottle of the most common wine there - Psou, there is also on the menu, but in fact it is not there either, but there is homemade 3000 rubles per bottle! There is no grape Abkhazian vodka either, only rye... As a result, I had to order a cheese plate, a barbecue and veal medallions. There were 4 types of cheese on the cheese plate, 4 slices each and a bowl of honey, nothing was decorated. The medallions are bland. The kebab is sour, it feels like it was soaked in vinegar... The bill was waited for about 20 minutes. Except to see the restaurant itself, there is nothing to do there at all. Everything is put on stream, the quality is zero.
The coolest, the oldest and just awesome!!!! The menu, service, atmosphere, live music, everything is at the highest level and everything is delicious!!! And most importantly, the cost of all this pleasure in the bill will not be higher than the "coastal" restaurants of Gagra, Pitsunda, New Athos!!! That 's how it is !!!
A wonderful restaurant with a history. There are a lot of documentary photos on the walls. There is something to learn. Go through the pages of history. To understand the way of life, dreams and aspirations of those times. The cuisine is varied. Everything is very tasty.
The prices are quite high, but the nature of the dishes is far from restaurant. I buy similar salads in stores for much less money. There was no restaurant level, just an average cafe, and the prices of an elite restaurant. In general, the dishes were disappointing. The view inside is beautiful, the view from the balcony is beautiful. The music was half dead: the violinist and the soundtrack. We could arrange a full live music session. In general, the place is interesting with a history (more than 120 years of the restaurant), but the food is of the cafe level
It's a cool place with powerful energy, but it's about the building itself, the kitchen and the service are nothing special, like in an ordinary provincial cafe.
I was there about 15 years ago, very well..Now it is operated by the owners, rather, as a historical landmark, with an unreasonably high entrance fee...
Very nice restaurant both inside and out, beautiful sea view, good service. But! The food was disappointing... They ordered black tea - they brought a teapot in which there was so much tea that half a liter was barely colored, like green tea. They ordered a pork neck, brought meat on the bones, allegedly mixed it up, as the waitress said. We ordered Chateaubriand steaks - rubber meat and over-dried grilled vegetables. Either the meat was old, or they don't know how to cook. In general, they ask for a 2000 deposit per person, but they cannot feed adequately. The situation was saved only by khachapuri - delicious, with lots of cheese. I really wanted to get into this restaurant for a long time, I ticked it. But I'm definitely not going to eat there anymore. The food in such a famous restaurant is at the level of simple cafes on the coast, and this is no exaggeration.
An incredibly atomospheric place, we got a lot of impressions from visiting. Insanely delicious dishes. Let's come back for sure) live music, violin 😍 just amazing !!!
Если ты побывал в Абхазии, наверно, хочется, сходить в Гагрипш 😁 Внутри красиво, вид на море из ресторана для фото тоже достойный, есть развлекательная программа, очень много посадочных мест, наверно, поэтому за всеми официанты не всегда успевают. Кухне пятерочку не поставил бы 😁 Место однозначно очень знаковое, но без денег сюда лучше не заходить 👍😁 Оно красиво смотрится и снаружи 😁
The restaurant is iconic and is an important landmark, so we went there. It takes an hour to walk from the hotel, no one notified us by phone how many people there should be, whether there are deposits or not. As a result, when we were alone at the place, they just wouldn't let us in.
I have never heard a cheaper excuse not to let in in my life: "We only plant from 3 people, with a deposit of 2000 rubles per person." And if I can still put up with a deposit, then boarding from 3 people is nonsense that is difficult to digest.
The hostess also added at the end, "come back in an hour." What should change in an hour? Are we supposed to have a baby and then they'll let us in? Or how does the system work?
They refused to plant it even on the condition that we pay the deposit here and now. So much for a historical landmark.
At the same time, the restaurant itself had tables for two, three, and as many as you want. Couples were sitting. There is no appointment, everything is on a first-come, first-served basis.
If you want a boorish attitude, vague excuses why you can't be put down to dinner (despite the fact that if there are empty seats, they have no right to refuse by law), even considering that you are ready to pay the deposit, then you are here.
Considering the fact. that there is no armor there, we observed a lot of empty seats, which means they could have physically planted us. But for some reason they didn't want to...
The situation will be corrected if the restaurant administration gives us a 50% discount on the entire menu for the next visit, and also sincerely apologizes for the boorish attitude on the part of its employees who suffer from "watchman syndrome".
A legendary place in Abkhazia, it was for this that I added another star to the beautiful presentation of almost all the dishes that were brought to our company for this one more star. That's where the advantages ended.
From what I ordered (gagripsh salad and meat in Abkhazian), nothing corresponded to the price that was indicated for the dish - this is the main disadvantage.
For a minimum deposit of 1,500 per adult, you should not worry, the prices of dishes will easily help you overcome it, but if suddenly for some reason you do not make it, you should not worry too much, you will be added a 10% bill for service for your convenience right in the receipt. Thus, given that the cost of the dishes is overestimated relative to the quality, you leave quite generous tips.
P.S. You won't want to return to this place a second time. Yes
The place is iconic and beautiful, the cuisine is delicious, the brand wine is excellent, I take off the ball only for missing half of the menu on our visit and imposing a grill menu that costs space, even by Moscow standards.
This restaurant has a special atmosphere. The cuisine is good and varied. The price tag is acceptable. Live music, service is all on the level. The only drawback is that it was very hot in the summer, everything is open, but this does not save.
We stopped by at the beginning of November . We saw there was a banquet the day before (we were passing by). When we got to the entrance, it was closed and there was a sign saying "closed for special maintenance until 01.01.2025". Thus, it turns out that in winter there are probably only banquets for locals, and tourists cannot visit . They weren't very upset.
A beautiful historical building, just like a postcard. Inside there is an ordinary restaurant where you can taste dishes of national cuisine. They cook usually, the prices are too high.
The restaurant is beautiful, I consider the deposit of 2 thousand absolutely adequate, the waitress is friendly, advised dishes from the heart) It was delicious! Especially the royal ear 😍
She took off one star for the hostess, her face looked like we came to her house to eat for free
1 point for lemonade, 1 point for the view. The building itself, the interior, everything seems to be fine, but the tablecloths are already worn, the walls are frayed, the dishes are chipped, the kitchen is ordinary, I did not see anything at the restaurant level, dirty plates can stand and wait for the waiter, the administrator with a dissatisfied face seats according to the principle "first give out all the bad places". In general, the entry failed, there is nothing to do here a second time. The deposit per person was 1,500.
It was like this: we came in the morning, two families to have breakfast and take pictures there. We took a picture from the outside and went to drink coffee with them, and at the entrance to the restaurant we were met by a restaurant employee and explained the conditions of our stay in this institution. The deposit is 1500rubles from an adult and 50% from a child. That is, we had to pay 4,500rubles at once, we didn't like it because we wouldn't have eaten for such an amount since we don't eat much in the morning. We were ready to pay, but not on such terms, and to be honest, the restaurant has nothing unusual in its interior, so we were not upset and had a delicious breakfast in a cafe on the street, right against the fish ponds🔥👍
The three of us came as a family. In an almost empty restaurant, we were refused to sit at a table we liked on the grounds that it was designed for a larger number of people. No matter how long we were going to stay there, eat and continue, however, the waitress with poorly concealed irritation, arrogance and contempt, reveling in her tiny power, did not let us take a table designed for a couple of people more. When choosing dishes, you need to keep in mind that you are obliged to spend at least 1,500 rubles in this institution, and even choke, but order. And it's also good to count in your mind. I met this in the nightmarish cafes of the mid-90s, and walked away from such absurd obligations. But then, for some reason, she agreed. The food was not impressive, it was not tasty, the amount of the check was about 7 thousand, of course there was a lot left, keep in mind that 10 percent of the service is already included in the bill. Fruit drinks and wines only in liters and bottles. You can't take what the waiters recommend, it's expensive and obviously tasteless! And if you want to take with you what you couldn't handle in connection with this disgusting requirement, keep in mind that they will put containers with a package right on the table, they say you will pack it yourself, and the appliances will be taken away to humiliate you. I personally saw how people refuse to come in from the doorstep, seeing the faces of the waiters and the requirement to pay the duty and not walk around the restaurant! It's absurd. I think all the guides are paid to advertise this place. You can only go to the toilet through the restaurant maze, you can't think of anything funnier. In general, the horror (The service did not like it, when we moved to another table away from the air conditioner, we were not served a menu. Okay, we went by ourselves. They position themselves as a restaurant, but they didn't give any napkins. Dirty dishes were not taken away immediately, drinks were not poured, little attention was paid, they scurried behind my back, the floor was wooden, it swayed, my chair also swayed, somehow not very pleasant. The calculation was waited for a very long time. In short, I do not recommend it to those who are familiar with good service and really delicious restaurant food.
If you remove the obligation of guests to spend a certain amount, replace the staff (including the kitchen), remove the maze and the stupid requirement not to walk around the restaurant, there is a chance to become a good place.
Mussels in cream sauce, salads, beef and lamb are just something. The most delicious lamb is here. Everything that was photographed😂The feed is fast. Everything is very, very tasty
Много раз были в Абхазии и очень давно хотели попасть в ресторан Гагрипш.
В этом году мы смогли осуществить задуманное. Сам ресторан очень атмосферный, красивый и внутри и снаружи. С балкона открывается прекрасный вид. Для фотографий красивый очень Крутая локация.
При входе вам скажут что с человека депозит 1500, для детей до 10 лет 700 рублей.
Еда была неплохая, но по меню были не все позиции, что очень удивительно в начале сезона и в таком популярном туристическом месте.
В чеке вы найдете строку 10% за обслуживание, только вот самого обслуживания вы не увидите. Стол без салфеток, тарелки не уносят, сидели в куче грязной посуды, пока не выловили официанта, чтоб он наконец-то все убрал!
Музыка живая, но очень громкая, если планируете сидеть и общаться, садитесь подальше от сцены!
Как итог скажу, что больше желания приходить в Гагрипш нет! Очень нужно работать над сервисом!
We visited this restaurant according to numerous, good reviews. We were very upset about visiting this institution. We asked the waiter if there were tomatoes in the dish, to which they replied no. As a result, they brought a dish containing tomatoes (I am allergic to this product), and finely chopped.
They offered to replace it with another one, without apologizing. It didn't end there, the waitress serving the next table just pushed me, while looking haughtily, of course not apologizing.
The only person who tried to fix the situation is the administrator.
Already leaving the restaurant, we noticed a very interesting picture, cucumbers are lying right on the exit, there are glass bottles, apparently left by visitors.
As upset as possible by the visit.
The restaurant itself is a work of art! I recommend visiting it! But it's hot inside in summer! And not everything is on the menu. In principle, the food is not bad! Plus there's a deposit of 1,500 or 2,000 thousand rubles! The staff is polite and kind! The only thing in the dessert was a hair ((but it was easily changed to another one!!!
The place is delightful, unusual, and solemn. There is live music in the restaurant itself, there is a deposit of 2000 per adult and 50% for a child under 7 years old
In my opinion, the best option is to sit in good company. The food is great. Maintenance standards. The interior is beyond praise. After all, the restaurant is more than 120 years old. The average check is about 1,500 rubles.
What is beautiful or good there is not clear! Food for 3+ interior , well, it 's just that it 's a historical place ! But here is a 2000₽ deposit , you are serious , with such food you have a deposit , also musicians , one screams at the top of her voice , the second violinist pulls under the + bow! In general, if you just go on an excursion, look at the history, but there's nothing to do there! They have not learned how to be comfortable !
A very colorful restaurant in Abkhazia, a good atmosphere, good cuisine, there is even live music. A huge disadvantage and surprise turned out to be that you can only book a table for at least four, in the area from 20-00 to 21-00, there is a live queue to sit at the table for at least 40 minutes. At this moment, everyone is sent to the balcony to wait and take pictures.
This is the first time I've written a negative review and it's not easy. I'll start right from the bad: the service and the service are just minus one star. The administrator and waiters, to put it mildly, are not customer-oriented, this is a shame for this institution. We booked a table a few days in advance to celebrate a birthday (the first line was occupied, but no one came until 22 o'clock). Bottom line: we were poisoned, the dishes were not delicious. In addition to the beautiful appearance of the restaurant, the view from the terrace and the violinist, there are no positive emotions, there was a sediment and a bad mood, the holiday was spoiled. Our family is shocked by the service.
Why?
The place itself certainly deserves attention and it is interesting to visit here. A building with a history of over 100 years! Who wasn't there of the people who left a serious mark on history. However, since this is primarily a restaurant, I was not satisfied! On the recommendation of the waiter, I ordered a rack of lamb, and received a kebab from an old ram, and this is of course a failure for an institution claiming some pathos. I also didn't like the musical accompaniment at all. On a rather large stage, a single woman dressed in casual clothes sang a repertoire completely detached from the entourage of the institution.
Gagripsh- makes me feel special... I liked the inside more than the outside. A wide staircase in the old style beckons to climb up, and there is a huge hall decorated with side balconies. Everything is made of natural wood - beautifully carved handmade. There is a beautiful view of the sea from the windows. All side entrances and exits are made in the old style, which gives this hall harmony and splendor... As for the food, it's a long wait and my score is 4 with a minus. I really liked the singer with a good voice and a wonderful repertoire, I wanted to listen and listen to her.
An atmospheric old place, a must-visit as a historical monument, a gorgeous view of the sea, the food is not to say that it is something special, for a beautiful presentation of some dishes, of course yes!
I am disappointed in this restaurant, the girl who meets at the entrance informs that you can only pay in cash (although then the waiter said that it was possible to transfer, but the girl at the entrance said that only cash and sent us to the ATM on the ground floor). I ordered 2 dishes, this is grilled Dorado fish and it was delicious, but the second dish was grilled vegetables, the abomination was disgusting, the tomato was huge and had the consistency of porridge, the same bvl and eggplant, bell pepper was served with bones and that was almost like porridge (I did not eat such terrible vegetables anywhere). I am completely and completely disappointed in this place and will never come back.
I was here 2 years ago , I really liked it! Both the interior and the kitchen and the service, here I put such an assessment only because on the May holidays I decided to have lunch at this restaurant, for the sake of "just visiting it again", but I was faced with the fact that they made a "deposit" about which deposit can we talk at lunch, and when 20% is occupied tables ? I understand for dinner, but at lunchtime/daytime... I did not understand this approach … + now you can't walk around the restaurant and see the interior architecture, there are signs about the fine everywhere)
Thanks to the staff of this restaurant, the history of this restaurant is maintained and preserved. There is nothing superfluous. Many complain about the high prices and the fact that there is no Michelin-starred chef. And you don't have to. There is no second Olvier and there will not be, and this is the maximum level of a cook who has felt the soul of our people
Beautiful view and no more. And even when we were there, some info females staged a photo shoot on the steps. And hissed at everyone passing by. This ruined the overall impression completely...
23.07. it was my birthday and we, as part of 2 people, decided to celebrate it modestly at the famous Gagripsh restaurant.
We knew about the deposit of 2000rubles per person in advance.
We arrived at the institution in the evening, there were enough empty seats in the hall itself, in some places there were signs "rezrv", but there were also enough places without them. We were asked how many people there would be, we said that it would be just the two of us, then the girl looked around the whole hall and said that she could only offer a table on the balcony.
Well, on the balcony, so on the balcony. It seemed strange to us, given the availability of seats in the hall, but without a second thought, of course, we agreed. Then we realized that there are smoking areas everywhere around the perimeter of the balcony (tables with ashtrays and chairs) and we will have to eat in cigarette smoke. In my opinion, first of all, it is more logical to put smokers at the tables on the balcony, they are more accustomed to being in this "aroma".
We studied the menu and made an order. The dishes did not wait long, the drinks were served first.
One set of devices is supplied.
For two of us we had 5 small dishes (2 bacon, potatoes, 2 cold appetizers with salmon) and 2 cocktails. It came out at 4,440rubles (excluding 15% for maintenance).
That was the end of the service. During our stay at the table, we were never approached again. No one cleaned up the dirty dishes, no one was interested in whether everything was fine with us and whether something else was needed, roughly speaking, they just gave up on us. For example, if one of us had a fork dropped, we would have to go out into the common room, look for our waiter and ask for new appliances, and then hope that they would not forget about us.
After all the dishes were already eaten, we sat for another 25 minutes in the hope that someone would come to us just to finally ask for the bill. But no one came. The option was already offered to just get up and leave, they would have remembered about us when they saw a table with dirty dishes, and the waiter would have paid for our dinner. But, we, decent citizens, decided to go out and ask for the bill. We couldn't find our waiter, we went up to the girl who was cleaning the table, asked to be counted, to which we received the answer: "I didn't put you there and I didn't serve you." Well, just no words...
then we saw our waiter, and he saw us coming out, ran up and asked: "Should I calculate you?" The waiter didn't seem to be interested in anything else. Soon we were presented with an invoice, which included 15% service!!! (previously it was 10%), which no one even mentioned. To my question: "What should I do if I didn't like the service?" I did not receive an answer, nor did I receive a clear answer to the question why we were put on the balcony if there were seats in the hall.
We asked for help to call a taxi, as this can only be done from local numbers. To which we were told that the taxis were downstairs.
When we went downstairs, we saw that no taxi was standing there, it was evening, it was dark, the buses were no longer running. Whatever you want, get there. We stood at the bus stop for 15 minutes in the hope that a passing taxi would pick us up. We were lucky, and soon we were in the room.
And, of course, there was live music in the restaurant, we only heard it through the walls and glass doors of the balcony and absolutely did not see who was playing. So, in our case, it is difficult to call it 'alive'.
As a result: If you are 2-3 people, then be prepared to be planted on the balcony and eat in cigarette smoke. Be prepared that they may forget about you and you will have to sit surrounded by dirty dishes, and you may not even wait for the bill!
An atmospheric place with a history, I love to visit such places! There is a deposit of 2000 per person, but I think it is justified.. there are not many people, we liked what we ordered.. the views from the veranda are amazing, in general, I definitely recommend visiting once!

An iconic restaurant from Soviet times. Everyone who came to rest in Gagra tried to visit Gagripsh. The building is in excellent condition. However, it was not possible to visit the restaurant itself, on 10/26/2024 it was closed for special wedding services until 11/01/2024. The location and views are simply gorgeous. Parking a car next to the restaurant is no problem.
The place is interesting, I recommend visiting it. As for prices, there are no crazy prices there, the usual restaurant prices, well, not burger king of course, the kitchen is good, the waiters are friendly and polite. Yes, there is a deposit of 1,500 rubles per person, but it's not much if you come to have lunch and have a good time.
The famous Gagripsh restaurant in Staraya Gagra. It is truly a very beautiful place. The nature and vegetation next to it is simply amazing and amazing. You can't help but fall in love with this place!
Зашли в ресторан на кофе посмотреть место так как выбирали для дня рождения ресторан 🍽️ , нас встретил официант Андрей очень вежливый и дружелюбный, мы забронировали стол и все было прекрасно и вид с балкона и блюда и музыка живая , Был только один недостаток это поведение администратора.. ну понятно что люди устают от туристов И так далее … но войдя в ресторан на свой др такое себе слышать без здравствуйте, про депозит помните ? Шарики тут ваши ? Ну пойдемте .)) и потом еще ну вы кончено сели непонятно 🤣🤣 повезло с официантом реально , он сразу сделал настроение , и мы забыли про весь негатив и потом даже посмеялись 😆 спасибо Андрей желаем тебе самых лучших гостей 😊
Alas, they did not enter the restaurant itself, there was no time for it as part of the tour, but there were photos in front of the restaurant in memory. He is very handsome, his condition is being monitored.
A very tasty, beautiful and inspiring restaurant. The food is delicious, the prices are adequate. It has a very beautiful history, it hooked me as a tourist, and it was just interesting to go there, and after eating, and the gorgeous view from the terrace, I was completely delighted
Отличный ресторан, а главное с историей!!
Попасть в ресторан и отобедать может любой желающий, единственное условие - депозит в размере 1'500 рублей со взрослого человека и 700 рублей с ребёнка.
Все блюда, которые мы попробовали, были очень вкусными, особенно понравились национальные абхазские блюда, такие как:
- Акуджал - говядина, томлёная в горшочке с овощами и зеленью;
- Салат "Гагрипш" - салат из свежих огурцов с ветчиной и отварным говяжьим языком, рулетиками из яичного блина, заправленного соусом и сыром пармезан;
- Ачхаш по царски - хачапури с двойным слоем сыра;
Ну и в конце истории скажу, что если вы любите бывать в знаковых местах, да еще и вкусно в них покушать, то ресторан "Гагрипш" - идеальное место!!!
