The terrace seating is lovely for watching the boats go by. Had the grilled fish with a nice glass of sauvignon blanc, worked well together. Service was a bit slow but the view made up for it.

Loved the sugar-free options here&mdash;the keto cake actually tasted like cake, not cardboard. Staff knew their ingredients well. Good spot to sit with a coffee and get some work done.

The plov here actually tastes like something my Uzbek friend&rsquo;s mom would make. Manti were good too, juicy inside. Just felt the portions ran small for what you pay. Cozy place though, quiet enough to actually talk. I&rsquo;d come back if I&rsquo;m craving that specific flavor again.

Stopped by for lunch and tried the grey peas &mdash; really solid, tasted like something my grandma would make. Interior is cozy, proper old town vibe. Prices are a bit steep though.

The food was tasty, no complaints there. I liked that the seating area felt comfortable enough to just relax and not rush through the meal. Service was friendly too, which always helps. Only small thing, the place got a bit busy later on, but it didn&#39;t really bother me. A decent spot for a casual dinner.

Coffee here is actually good. Took a few minutes but whatever, it was worth standing around. Place is small, not really for hanging out long. Just grab and go. I&#39;d come back if I&#39;m in the area and need a decent cup.

Stumbled into this place while wandering the old town. Menu&#39;s only in Latvian but the guy at the counter walked us through it in English. Had the pork with sauerkraut&mdash;proper homemade taste, not fancy, just solid. Portion was big enough that I skipped dessert. Mostly locals eating, which says something. Prices fair for the location.

Loved the tea and shisha selection here! Staff helped me pick a flavor mix and it was spot on. Paid a bit more than usual, but the vibe and quality made it worth it for a chill hangout.

The terrace view at sunset is honestly the main reason to come here. Seafood was fresh, especially the grilled octopus. Prices are a bit steep, but you&#39;re paying for the vibe.

The pets wandering around really make this place feel warm. Calm vibe, easy to just sit and linger over your food. Lovely spot.

Jackfruit tacos were solid. Didn&#39;t expect much from a vegan place in Riga but these had real flavor. Snickers bar thing was a nice little finish. Place was busy but fine. Good if you&#39;re not into meat.

Mushroom risotto was solid, drinks came quick. Place has a nice vibe but nothing mind-blowing. Fine for a fast lunch stop if you&#39;re nearby.

The beef burger was properly juicy, really good. Kids&#39; play area kept my little one busy so we could actually eat in peace.

Stopped by for breakfast last week. Got the sweet potato fries on a whim - actually pretty good, crispy and not greasy. Service was quick, no fuss. Place gets busy around 9 but they keep things moving. Not fancy, just solid food at a fair price. I&#39;ll be back when I&#39;m in the area again.

Stopped by for a coffee and a donut&mdash;got a decent-sized one for the price. Fun spot with board games, though it got a bit loud later. Fine for a quick break.

Sat outside in the old town and grabbed the potato pancakes with grilled chicken. Flavor was solid, portion could&rsquo;ve been bigger but price felt fair. Nothing fancy, just a decent meal. 👍

Desserts are the reason to come here. Chocolate fondant was spot on, cr&egrave;me br&ucirc;l&eacute;e too. Mains are fine, just a bit heavy for my taste.

Came back the next day because the sea bass was really good. Grilled just right, and the Russian-style meat was decent too. Staff actually remembered us, which was nice. Place is a bit quiet for a Friday but fine for a relaxed dinner.

The riverside view is the main reason to come here. Big windows, watching boats pass by while you eat. Service was friendly too. But the pizza itself? Just okay. Dough was a bit flat, toppings nothing special. For the price they charge, I expected more. Fine for a drink by the water, but I wouldn&#39;t come back just for the food.

Came for a drink, stayed for the music. Bartender was friendly and knew what he was doing. Solid spot for a relaxed evening in the center.
