Sometimes the choice of a restaurant for a gala event or just for a family evening resembles a vertical race. It seems that there is a choice, but where to go is incomprehensible! Yes, you still need to decide whether it will be a restaurant in the heart of the city or an institution on the periphery. Advertising is full of interesting offers. But which restaurant in Saratov is the best? There is no single answer to this question. It all depends on personal preferences and the scale of the event.
City center
Basically, of course, the cafes and restaurants of Saratov are located in the city center. So, on Kirov Avenue and the streets closest to it, you can see hundreds of signs of the corresponding institutions. The most popular among local residents and guests of the city are the Sea Horse, Tary-Bary, Mandarin, Ali Baba and several others restaurants, all of which not only offer different cuisines, but also differ completely in style and design. Choosing the best one is not easy.
So, the Sea Horse restaurant will take its visitors to the bottom of the sea. For the design of all the halls, and there are 5 of them, all kinds of materials and attributes are used: blue-green colors with white trim, numerous aquariums with living inhabitants of the seas and plants that are so similar to seaweed. The menu of the institution for the most part contains dishes of fish and seafood. It is worth noting that Seahorse is one of the oldest restaurants in the city. And all this time he is considered one of the best.
Restaurants "Mandarin" and "Ali Baba" are not only located nearby, but also belong to the same owner. In addition, they are united by another quality - both offer their visitors traditional oriental cuisine. But if Mandarin is a Chinese restaurant, then in Ali Baba you can taste traditional dishes from Central Asia. True, not everyone likes such a clear national flavor. Here, even the music will be appropriate.
But the Tara-Bars tavern is the best Russian restaurant in Saratov, located in the city center. Having crossed its threshold, you can simply forget in what century you live now. Its interior is fully consistent with the appearance of the restaurants of the beginning of the last century. It offers the best dishes of Russian cuisine. Cabbage soup, pies, okroshka, all kinds of salinity and even dishes from the Russian stove - all this and not only can be tasted in the Tara Bars tavern.
On the promenade of the city
Another center of Saratov is the embankment of the Cosmonauts. People here like to spend time in the evenings, and besides, one of the best hotels in the city, Slovakia, is located here. Of course, there are restaurants on the Saratov embankment. Settled one after another, different in spirit “Aragvi”, “Zeppelin”, “Asian style” and “Dolche Vita” coexist. Each of them is original and unique in its own way.
So, the restaurant "Zeppelin" is dominated by German cuisine, although recently it is possible to try both Italian and French dishes there. The design, in which the entire interior of this establishment is made, is very interesting. For design, the Art Nouveau style, popular at the beginning of the 20th century, was used. Another bright representative of European cuisine is the restaurant "Dolche Vita", where you can taste the best Italian dishes. In summer, this is one of the favorite places on the waterfront, mainly because of the open terrace.
And lovers of oriental cuisine can have a great time in the restaurant "Asian Style". Its menu includes not only recipes of Japanese cuisine, but also dishes prepared from seafood. The atmosphere of the east is supported by twilight indoors and burning lamps on tables.
But the restaurant "Aragvi" is a real corner of Georgia on the banks of the Volga. All visitors are expected not only specialties and homemade wine, but also real Georgian hospitality.
On the periphery
Sometimes it seems that the best restaurants in Saratov are located only in the center and on the promenade. But there are many good institutions on the outskirts of the city. So, the Alexandria restaurants on 5th Dachnaya, Izba on 3rd Dachnaya, Okolitsa on Ordzhonikidze and some others are very popular among residents. Mostly, of course, due to the fact that for a long time they have been holding the brand of institutions with good cuisine and a high class of service. True, almost all restaurants on the periphery offer European cuisine, occasionally the menu is complemented by sushi and rolls.
In the country
But, not surprisingly, you can find a good restaurant in Saratov even outside the city. Perhaps the best of all will be the Syndicate and the Russian House. They are so popular that residents come to spend the evening there. Of course, they are attracted not only by the author's menu and excellent service. Both establishments are located in picturesque places with excellent views of nature. The opportunity to breathe clean air and enjoy delicious food in a pleasant company is worth driving 50 km. And, of course, such restaurants are increasingly chosen for weddings, corporate parties and anniversaries.
note
But there are cafes and restaurants in Saratov, for which you can even visit the city itself. First of all, it is the oldest restaurant in the city with the saying name "Moscow". It is located in a building built at the beginning of the 20th century. This creates a special atmosphere even inside the institution. The chefs of the restaurant are pleased to offer the best dishes of European and Russian cuisines. Residents of the city love it, first of all, for excellent pastries. But due to the fact that it is located in the historical center, it is simply impossible to park here by car.
Another interesting restaurant in Saratov is located near the Airport. This is the "Panorama". It is worth a visit, first of all, because of the stunning views of the city and the Volga. This can not be seen in any other institution in the city. The institution is distinguished by a laconic design and the same restraint in the kitchen. The menu consists mainly of classic dishes, although here they will be happy to cook kebabs and other Caucasian dishes.
In custody
When choosing institutions for a celebration, of course, many read the reviews left by previous visitors. Restaurants of Saratov after reading them sometimes seem not to correspond to the declared level. But if you look closely, sometimes visitors simply choose the wrong place. Perhaps that is why the impression remains not the best.
