The restaurant is original with a Cossack style scenery. The disguised team is friendly and the meals are delicious. All of this on a table close to the balcony to enjoy a nice sunset view while eating. I recommend it and I will even come back there the next time I stop over Guelendjik.

Historically Ukraine and Russia are really close. This restaurant offers Ukrainian food and its very tasty. When you make an order, you will get a shot of samagon and a Ukrainian snack for free. You will like the food.

Opanas was recommended to me as a must see while collecting my luggage at the airport. During a walking tour of the city it was recommended as one of the big three for traditional Ukrainian food. With such high recommendations I brought a friend and a healthy appetite.We arrived on a Monday evening without a reservation. There was a choice of seats inside and outside so we chose the terrace. My friend ordered the salmon and fruit veraneky and said everything was really good. I ordered a bit more food, starting with borscht, potato and mushroom stuffed veraneky and beef medallions. I was still ordering when the waitress kindly stated if I did it would be unlikely that I could finish it all. The amazing thing was that she was laughing with us, suggesting I should stop instead of just running up the tab, stopping several time to check that everything was ok and bringing wraps so we could stay warm as the temperature started to dip.First up, the borscht arrived served with pumpushka and sour cream. The soup was right on but the rib seemed as if it was tossed in at the last minute as an afterthought. The sour cream was preloaded in the soup instead of on the side as in other restaurants and the bread was really nice, light and fluffy. The potatoe and mushroom stuffed veraneky came next. They had a nice flavor and texture. I felt they were prepared with a bit more effort than at some places where they seem to be simply boiled and tossed into a bowl. I'm not sure what they did but these were nice on their own and even better dipped in the sour creame. Next up came the beef medallions. On this point I'm torn. The meat was tender and had an excellent tast. The issue I had was that it didn't have a grilled appearance i expected, instead maintaining the grey color as if it was steamed. The second issue was it seemed like it sat on the counter and rested a bit tool long.I really enjoyed the meal and would like to go back and try some of the additional offerings.
