Most Popular Contemporary food in Kiev, Ukraine
Reviews on Contemporary food in Kiev, Ukraine. Having survived the Mongol Empire, WWII, Chernobyl, and Soviet rule, Kiev is the proud capital of the Ukraine. Filled with theaters, museums, religious sites, modern buildings and ancient ruins, the city of Kiev is the center of Ukrainian culture. The Monastery of the Caves, founded in 1015, and Saint Sophia Cathedral, founded in 1037, are both World Heritage Sites. The Museum of the Great Patriotic War, topped by the massive Motherland Statue, provides gorgeous views of the city below.

The idea is to open a social restaurant in Kyiv in an Urban Space format which will become a successful example of uniting a community around a common cause. What makes Urban Space unique is that 80% of the restaurant profit will be reinvested in social p

This is a top place in Kyiv. First - it's located 5 min from Maidan - the main square, so really convenient. The restaurant has a stylish design with thoughtful details, e.g. their chairs are made of recycled plastic. There are several zones which fit for different occasions, either a business lunch or a dinner for two or a friends meeting. The food is great, they have modern cuisine with Ukrainian flavor. I absolutely recommend their potato dumplings, syrniki, sea buckthorn tea, and doppio coffee. But what makes this place a 5star restaurant is details, e.g. they have spare diapers in the toilet next to the baby changing table. Gosh, this thing saved our life once! Also, there is a separate child feeding room and on weekends they invite a nanny (!) to entertain kids while you're eating. Absolutely recommend, as this is one of the most comfortable and well-thought modern restaurants in Kyiv. p.s. finally, what I also find very cool is the idea behind the place. It's called Urban Space because they give 80% of their profits on different city development projects, also there are some cultural and social events that happen in the restaurant. Really cool concept.

It's a nice tiny bar in the historic part of the City. They offer number of delicious sandwiches ( especially good one is with tuna) and drinks ( local wines and spirits).Great to pass by while wondering around Andriyivsky descent in Kyiv. Small lovely terrace. More than moderate prices. High quality of street food!

I came here to meet with a friend over a quick breakfast. I liked the place from the first sight. The place was very chill and I felt comfortable. All the food I ordered tasted delicious. The only thing, I felt bad for the waitress, since she was taking care of everyone by herself. I enjoyed my visit and I will come back for more.

The food is excellent and reasonably priced. Would recommend this place without hesitation. Good service and the staff speak english and the menu has english translation upon it. If you are not familiar with Georgian food it is similar to - but not the same as - turkish and greek.It is our reward to receive detailed feedback like this. Thanks to those we are even more motivated to do our best! Keep in touch. Come around again to visit our second restaurant Chang Asian Bistronomia.

This place is a bit off the beaten track, yet just a few steps from the old town main square. Yes they do serve a bit of international cuisine but going for the local specialties is a much better choice. Please try borscht, it's really good. A heart warming winter food. Skip if you're a vegetarian. Potato fritters with mushrooms are delicious when spiced up. And then there's a seitan burger... Serious local food at the prices that won't break a bank. Big thumbs up!

As soon as we walked in, Marianna made us feel welcome. She talked us through the menu and helped us choose the duck dumplings to share for starter and the chocolate espresso martini. We then had chicken Kiev and the fillet mignon accompanied by a different sipping shot each to compliment the dish (she also helped me choose a strawberry cheesecake cocktail) Then for dessert we had a tiramisu cocktail and a trump beer. The food was absolutely incredible and Marianna was equally as incredible. She really made our night enjoyable! Dear guest, thanks a lot for your warm feedback! We're always trying to do our best and share all recommendations, if guests need it, so we're happy that you enjoyed your visit.Hope to see you again, BARVY team :)
