I was just served very very undercooked chicken. It's was clearly RAW CHICKEN. This restaurant needs to up its game before introducing serious health risks to their customers. Hopefully just a one off but beware.

Seeing how the restaurant occupies the basement of a typical old Soviet apartment building, the fake stone facade, massive wooden doors, wrought iron accents, statue of what looks like Friar Tuck outside- all might seem cheesy... However, once you walked in you're greeted with.. quality. Yes, the interior is in a style of a medieval castle dining room, it is as well done as such a thing could be, and because there are no windows to connect you to the outside world- a certain cozy atmosphere is created. When we had a late lunch there, the place was nearly empty, so we had the waitresses attention all to ourselves. She was very helpful and courteous. The menu includes both Russian and European dishes. Everything we ordered, and whatever was recommended by our waitress- was delicious. Our bill for 2 main courses, 3 appetizers + a few beers came to around $100. Steep by local standards, but given the service, ambience, and quality of food- worth it.

Basilio is the author's cuisine restaurant in the center of Chelyabinsk. The cozy space includes two halls created for gastronomic evenings, friendly gatherings, romantic meetings, family celebrations, intimate conversations, and sometimes unrestrained karaoke parties. It's always Tasty here. Warm and Flawless.

I've been to this restaurant with my colleagues:) cosy atmosphere, haute cuisine and perfect wine list. Menu a la carte but chef will always adjust dishes to a guest's preferences...And one extraordinary thing-you can see everything that's going on in the kitchen...It's amazing!

Maximillian is still a nice restaurant. They serve good beers from own brewery. We ordered a hamburger but we were surprised that we get 2 for 1 person. After mentioning that we only wat one, they packed the 2nd one for takeaway, a bit strange but probably the Russian way.

The colorful restaurant serving traditional Russian cuisine. Extensive menu of dishes prepared according to old recipes and original findings from the chef. Funny show every Friday and Saturday.

Ate there once with my colleagues during our work trip. Authentic place with wide selection of traditional Russian dishes. I had dumplings from beat meat, vareniki and pickles - all tasted very well. The place has a long history dating back to Soviet times and many city visitors still go there to reminisce their student years. Surprisingly prices are very reasonable.
6. Shafran

Reviewed By Alexey L - Chelyabinsk, Russia
Shafran has won various prizes as the best ethnic restaurant in Chelyabinsk for many years. And, I concede, it is one of the best restaraunts in Chelyabinsk not only among ethnic restaurnts but in general. I dined virtually at all Uzbek restaurants in town and view Shafran as the only Uzbek restaurant approaching the 'fine dining' level. At Shafran, I tried lagman soup and manti dumplings--both dishes were remarkable. Unfortunately, there was no pilaf. They cook and serve pilaf at Shafran two times a day--at 12:30pm and 7:pm and it is only available for a short period of time.

Ещё пару лет назад здесь нравилось гораздо больше, чем сейчас. Нравилось сюда приходить, так как очень любили пиццу Папа Карло, она была лучшая в городе. Сейчас пицца неплохая, но есть и вкуснее. Рекомендую пиццу цезарь, так как такой не встречала в других пиццериях.

We went to the ballet and was walking distance from there. We had the best staff who were helpful and spoke very good english. Highly recommend going to this place if you are hungry and want a very good meal. Had a steak which was made exactly what i asked for. Would dine her again in a heartbeat.

Первые впечатления от ресторана, когда он только открылся, были не очень хорошими от безобразного обслуживания. Сейчас обслуживание стало лучше, но всё равно проблемы остались. Заказ приняли быстро, а вот чтобы попросить счёт, пришлось подходить к администратору зала. Наша официантка упорно отводила взгляд от нашего стола, когда пробегала мимо, хотя мы сидели у самой двери в кухню. Качество работы поваров я бы оценил как хорошее. Тартар из говядины был супер. Фетучини с курицей и грибами тоже весьма неплох, но пришлось немного досолить. Жареный сыр не впечатлил. Но в целом впечатления хорошие. Меню "вкусное", много соблазнительных блюд. Подтянуть обслуживание и всё будет ОК. Да, ещё можно отметить, что ресторан имеет хорошую посещаемость. В воскресный вечер половину столиков было занято и люди всё подходили (было 19 часов).
