Great atmosphere but most of all amazing their digital wine serving method that I have never seen before even in Europe or America. Too hard to explain so just see for yourself. The prices are reasonable. The restroom is the only negative.

Limited selection of wines and snacks, but the system of tasting is interesting. Staff make it pleasant and the atmosphere, decor is appealing.

An amazing place with professional staff with a great sense of humor. We were lucky to spend our Saturday evening here. Ended up enjoying not only the wine and stylish dishes, but also live music and stunts from a charismatic magician. We were here a couple of years back, and the place was nice. But looks like they changed the style of dishes, added activities and changed the concept a bit. And now it's absolutely must-visit. Thanks again team!

Just perfect, just delicious, highly recommend.
March 9
We went there on March 8th.
The concept is 2 hours per table, live music.
And then in more detail:
1 star - the food is very tasty, the presentation is very interesting. A huge selection of wines, also excellent.
The other missing stars:
For an establishment with a pricing policy like the best restaurants, you expect to receive high-level service.
And you get it:
- drunken tokini employees staggering between tables, chatting among themselves and with waiters distracting guests and making remarks, it's just terrible.
- the waiters are nice, but they serve the guests absolutely poorly, they brought water glasses to our table only after 15 minutes.
At the next table, on the contrary.
- at the entrance, there is an incomprehensible mountain of hangers where you yourself hang your outerwear, and the crowd of visitors who wait for their tables for more than 10-15 minutes is terrible.
The establishment is trying to squeeze more money out of the holiday without giving itself a 15-minute delay to clean tables so that visitors don't expect it.
- They came up and said they would bring glasses and then tell us about the concept of wine tasting, I had to remind them.
- After waiting a long time for a table in the crowd, they said that there would be a compliment from them - there was nothing :)
- The hot food was brought with a difference of 17 minutes.
Although you order all the dishes for the evening in advance when booking tables, the menu is limited and I don't see any problems preparing and serving dishes on time and together.
- The bottle of sparkling wine was left just on the table, without ice, it was not checked or refilled.
- The waiters are friendly with all the guests, as if you are in a cheap bar.
Only one waiter, a guy with blond hair, had good communication when serving dishes.
- With 12-14 tables and 4 waiters, this is very bad.
We do not plan to return there, nor do we recommend this place to anyone:(

The concept of the institution is just top.
Wine tasting is the best thing you could come up with, especially when you do it yourself.
The atmosphere was romantic, the veal steak just melted in my mouth.
I would like to mention the staff separately - the young man, the waiter, is simply in love with his business, intrigues, talks enthusiastically, knows the wine assortment, in a word, he is still impressed by his stay.

Expectations were not fulfilled. It is a pity when the good disappears from the face of the city. The incomparable idea of enthusiast Igor Obraztsov, artist Pavel Shappo, sommelier Alexey Mikhalchik and Alexey Belikov to create an authentic meeting place where you can relax has gone into oblivion. Even the unusual interior and the charming sounds of the violin, the interesting presentation of delicious dishes and wines, cannot replace the inattentive attitude of the staff. I still can't figure out who had the sense to seat the guests who had pre-booked a table in the aisle at a table without lighting, next to the musicians, when you can't hear the words because of the music. Okay, if you just happened to come in! But there was a booking for a birthday and a desire to make an advance payment in a conversation with the administrator Vladimir. It would be nice if there were no empty tables with beautiful table lamps when we arrived, but there were! Putting the birthday girl on a side chair is a bad idea! There was an opinion that they did not wait! There was no magic box either. The birthday girl's compliment in the form of a piece of cake with a candle and a couple of good wishes from the waiter girl was. The desire to stay longer was gone, and with it we left early, it was uncomfortable to sit when visitors -tasters with glasses of wine constantly walk past you, and arrange photo shoots right behind your back. I think the management and the team have something to work on, otherwise very soon a wonderful institution can turn into a mediocre bar.

A small room, but very cozy. A huge variety of wines, tasting of which takes place in a "modern, independent" way. Live pleasant music by an accordionist who played divinely! I would come back again. I recommend.

An excellent, very atmospheric, original place with an atypical serving of dishes and an impressive selection of wine.
The food is very tasty, sometimes it can truly surprise (sometimes not for the better)). Serving dishes is a separate art form: history, fire, and smoke - you will not be disappointed.
There are tables for both two and for a company. It is better to book in advance.
There is only one minus - it is expensive, especially if you come not just to sip a new wine, which is not available in regular stores.
Special respect to the waiter - a young man with tattoos and a beard, I'm sorry, I don't remember your name. Extremely charismatic, competent, courteous and simply pleasant!
We got a lot of pleasure from the visit, we will definitely visit more than once.

I wanted to please my husband on his birthday by visiting an atmospheric place he had never been to before. And it was 100% successful!
It's been a long time since we've had so much aesthetic and gastronomic pleasure from visiting an institution!
The interior, the intriguing serving of dishes, and the work of the waiters deserve the highest praise. And of course, the dishes themselves - everything was delicious!!!
I liked the wine system - thanks to the opportunity to taste a variety of wines, we discovered several charming positions.
Many thanks to the entire restaurant staff! My husband and I were absolutely delighted!!!

The atmosphere is a bit "peculiar", but I liked it) Interesting serving and serving of dishes. A pleasant menu. A peculiar but intriguing wine selection and tasting system. Attentive staff. The price is above average, but this is compensated by a small number of visitors, which is a more important factor for me))
Visited by a family circle aged from 70 to 10 years, everyone was satisfied.

I was with a girl on March 8th at this institution. To begin with, the table could only be booked for 2 hours. Okay, it's a holiday, the institution is trying to earn as much as possible and receive more guests, no problem, booked.
We arrived at the booking time, as I expected, when gatherings are limited in time, tables are not vacated on time, they did not even provide for themselves a time reserve between the arrival of guests, which in the end we have:
arriving on time, we stood in a narrow corridor with other guests who also arrived at the given booking time and waited for the tables to be vacated, so we stood for 17 minutes like shrimps in a jar with other guests, there is no wardrobe, there are just 3-5 clothes hangers in a pile, which are tied to the wall with a fishing line.
After 17 minutes, we were led to a table, there was drinking water in a bottle, but there were no glasses, they said the glasses would be brought soon, and we had to wait 20 minutes for the glasses. They ordered champagne and brought us a bottle, but without an ice bucket or something similar, they said it was already cold, touch it, if you suddenly need to cool it in the future, we'll figure something out, what do you mean?)
Then we were served Caesar salad and beef tartare. The girl liked Tartarus, I didn't really like Caesar 3/5.
It's time for a hot meal, let me clarify that there were only 3 hot dishes on the menu on March 8, we ordered hot dishes as soon as we sat down at the table, along with salads and so on. The girl got her hot stuff, after which, I waited for my hot for 20 minutes, what do you mean? Where is the simultaneous serving of dishes? According to their logic, first one guest should eat his hot food and then bring it to the second guest? It was hotter again at 3.5/5
While we were eating hot food, friends of the waiters entered the restaurant and stood talking to them. Then the regular guests of this establishment came, as I understood it, walked around the hall, took wine from the vending machine, attracting attention to themselves, so they missed about an hour in the establishment, just walking around the hall between the tables and talking to the waiters, I note, they did not sit at any table, but simply walked around the establishment with drinking.
A nuance with the toilet, I asked the waiter where the restroom was and, as it turned out, this establishment did not have its own toilet, I had to leave the establishment and there is a toilet at the entrance to the building that opens using a special card, there is only one card, the toilet is shared by girls and boys, I was offered to wait because the card is already they took it away and said as soon as the card was returned, we will tell you, 17 minutes have passed, no one told me anything, I went up to the waiter /receptionist myself, they advised me to stand at the door to the toilet, wait for a person to leave there, it will be faster, for reference, the door to the toilet is near the door on a street that is always open. It's some kind of game.
At the end of the evening, it was dessert time, and dessert was brought to us without even offering tea/coffee. They just put it down and left.
To sum up, it creates the feeling of a chain eatery, and not a place where the price tag for hot food is about 50 rubles. The only thing that pulls out is an interesting interior, but this is the merit of the decorator. Take away these decorations and there won't be any positivity left from the establishment at the prices they have listed on the menu.The establishment has 4 waiters and few tables, about 14. Glasses had to wait 20 minutes. I had to wait 17 minutes for the reserved table, the toilet was near the street and not my own, hot food was brought with huge pauses for the guests. The champagne is not allowed to cool when it is brought. The attitude of the waiters is more fraternal.
Being in this establishment, the most unpleasant thing is that you directly feel that the owner wants to get as much money out of this establishment as possible, without thinking about the comfort of the guests. The dishes are beautiful, some are delicious, some are below average, the service is below the skirting board, the atmosphere is ruined by notable people. We weren't the only ones who ate quickly and left before the two-hour deadline. From the photos and videos, it gives a completely different impression than when you were there in person and had a good time. We won't come here anymore.

One of the places of the master is a visit to Minsk!
A very unusual wine bar. Pleasant atmosphere: a full-wall projector with old clips, a nice installation of bottles and a lot of small interior details.
But the main feature of the place is an interactive experience with self-pouring wine from the vending machine.Imagine, you are given a card and you become "your own sommelier": it remains to go to the wine vending machine and choose the required volume of the glass. The idea is fresh, unusual!
The staff is helpful, the food is delicious. Eggplant salad, which was complained about in the previous review, in my opinion, is definitely worthy of😊 (I don't know how it was before that).
So feel free to come, try everything that will appeal to the eye and taste, take a cheese plate and enjoy the place, it's worth it!

A very authentic place where everything is thought out from the decor of the establishment to the decor and serving of dishes. Wine treats, such as cheese, are served in mousetraps, a variety of wines allows you to taste the wine, both to taste and on a budget. Serving wines through dispensers allows you to taste several wines in one visit. Excellent cuisine, interesting snacks, salads and especially the "duet of tartars", which are served in a box, will please any gourmet

This place has fallen in love with itself. They became his guests themselves and hooked their friends on this endorphin needle) Now we go on dates with my wife and family feasts with my parents only here. It's nice that the menu changes frequently, as does the wine list. Special thanks to the staff, there were no establishments in my life where I would know all the employees by name, given that the guys do not have badges)

We were walking along the avenue with a friend, we decided to come in. We have never been to such places before. The waiter put me at the table with a time limit. But in 20 minutes, no one came up, brought the menu, or explained the concept. When patience ran out, we asked the waiter ourselves, and only then we were already handed cards with a deposit and explained how to use the drinks cabinet. The wine is interesting, for every taste and purse. The food is expensive, they did not order, they were afraid to wait a long time. We limited ourselves to free cheese. To summarize, inter

As before, the spectacular serving of dishes, but lately the place has deteriorated. One of the order items was Shakespeare's Golden Scallops. Judging by the size of the scallops on the shells, two scallops are taken per serving, divided into 8 parts and filled with cheese. They also brought something hot that was not in the order, but the original position was in the final invoice (in fairness, after the comment, the invoice was promptly replaced)

I was here a few years ago. The establishment was delighted both in terms of service, concept and products. Unfortunately, this time it's not like that anymore... Yes, the snacks are still delicious. Yes, the concept is the same and the staff is polite, but it's not the same with wine anymore... The positions are either a cheap "pass-through", or such a price per 100ml that it is easier to buy a couple of bottles of good wine than to spend 60-90 bel.rubles on this sip. Previously, it was really possible to choose excellent middle positions here. Now there is practically no choice on the machines, I would say, and what is there is absolutely not worth the money. So with all these advantages, the ratio of extremely high prices to products is, alas, not in favor of the institution. It's a pity. It was a very cool place...

I found this place on TripAdvisor, there are a lot of reviews there and at first I was worried - are they screwed up?
We decided to go and did not lose. I have not visited any other similar establishments before.
But I'll start with the food: we ordered bruschetta with porcini mushrooms - DELICIOUS (we didn't spare the sauce and ingredients). The salads are also top-notch and the serving is excellent.
Hotter - with smoke. Desserts - with jokes and jokes.
You can go through the Kvest and then you will get a good look at this room.
It is noticeable that the staff is involved in the common cause. I definitely recommend this place
P/s
I recommend that the owner of the establishment expand the space. Your Concept is Cool. Even more people should know about you

An original bar in the center next to Ya. Kolos Square. Pleasant interior, unobtrusive, calm music. The service is good, the staff is friendly. The trick here is that you do not need to order wine from an attendant. There are special machines with bottles of wine. The white wines are already chilled. You need to choose the brand of wine and the dose. Insert a card (it will give you an identifier), the machine pours the selected drink. So you can try different wines. There are 8 white and 8 red wines in the assortment. Unfortunately, until recently there were twice as many. For a bar, the food is decent, there is something to eat. Payment as usual, at the end. Information about the wine consumed plus the kitchen bill is read from the card.

We celebrated my husband's birthday at the Owino wine restaurant on 08/23/2023 and did not regret it. When we arrived at the restaurant, we were greeted by a very friendly and courteous staff, who familiarized us with the rules of using the wine list, told us what was what in general)) the restaurant is small, but the interior is so sincere, sweet) we ordered snacks for the wine, which just taste amazing (special thanks to the chef in the kitchen). Special attention should be paid to the serving of dishes, it's some kind of magic!!! After that, we were offered to complete quests and win a prize (a bottle of wine). We completed 2 quests and received 2 prizes (red and pink wine). This is such a nice bonus))) and at the end of the evening, my husband received a sweet dessert as a gift with congratulations from the restaurant staff)
In general, we liked everything! This is one of those rare cases when I can make such a conclusion about a visited institution) I want to note that I have never met such a wonderful and courteous staff with my guests)) just a delight!

OWINO is a stunning, atmospheric place, with an original wine serving. When you sit down at the table, you are given a card by which you can choose any wine in the hall, in different volumes.
Serving dishes is a separate art form!
I recommend to everyone the "Horns of the former" and bruschetta (which have a special feed on Fri and Sat).
There is live music in the bar!
The staff is incredibly friendly and courteous!
By the way - Free cheese, only in a mousetrap (another feature of the restaurant).

The original interior and concept: a bar with an enomaticum, with a fairly large selection of white and red wines, a tasting portion of 25 ml. Sparkling wine can be selected in a bottle and its selection is also very good. The cuisine is perhaps too unusual, the serving of even the simplest dish is unexpectedly exotic. Very pleasant music and visitors who do not make noise, but came to drink wine elegantly. Very very friendly service. A great place for a date and a friendly meeting.

I was disappointed. We have heard about the place, we have seen it in many guidebooks. We decided to go. Total: the place is very stuffy, it is impossible to spend even five minutes at all. We sincerely sympathized with those who were supposed to be at the tasting later that day. We found a table on the street (as it turned out, the tables were originally occupied by the staff of the institution-okay, it was very stuffy, forgivable, especially since we were able to find the table in the end) We
took salads (in Caesar, the dressing is downstairs-why?) decorated salads with butterflies from something edible-it looked tasteless. The wine is poured, but very little, the card system is interesting, for which there are three balls.
The interior is unusual, the waiter reluctantly tried to explain to us about the numbers game, but we realized that it was probably time for us.
