I visited the restaurant at Intourist Hotel, at what used to be called Lenin avenue, but now is called Soborny Avenue. The restaurant is decorated in a charming Ukrainian farm style, and the staff was welcoming, and also spoke good English.
I decided to try a vegetarian dinner, something that is not always so easy in Ukraine. So I started with a summer salad which was very fresh and tasty. Then I had some grilled cheese, and this was also very good. After that I had a vegetable shashlik, that was really delicious.
This was a very good meal, and I would be happy to return to this restaurant.

We visited this restaurant yesterday and were impressed! It is really nice restaurant.Food is tasty and nice presentation,good menu,good service and friendly stuff.I would say they try to be one step forward before you ask something,it is very rare for Ukraine at all!!!! Reasonable price.
Working many years as a restaurant manager i will put 4+ for service and 5 for food! BRAVO!
Just small suggestion,pls carry all drinks you serve on the tray same goes for dirty glasses.It looks unprofessional when you carry glasses or bottle of soda and glass in one hand and in other hand - dirty glasses from other tables.
Highly recommended to visit in Zaporozhye!

I had dinner here recently and was greeted politely. They had waitress who spoke English and also English menu. She was quite friendly and efficient. My table was always cleared when I'd finish my meal. Restaurant was clean and comfortable and sitting outside in evening summer sun was refreshing. Meals were fresh and delicious. The homemade lemonade with citrus was much needed after of hot summers day. I will definitely return to this establishment

Every day I was able to share this fine café with friends and colleagues. From the lunch to fine evening dining, it was superb. The interior décor is so relaxing and beautiful. The wait staff is quiet, polite, and extremely efficient. Even the music is relaxing and allows easy conversation. I am now missing the desserts and pancakes. Yes, this trip I finally enjoyed breakfast. Light fluffy eggs in a hot bowl, more like a quiche than an omelet. Very good and this is the café I most recommend you visit at least once in Zaporizhye. Located by the University 1 block from Lenina Prospect.

Have been attending for quite a while and still pleased with new discoveries of lavish menu, prices, friendly atmosphere and above all - helpful and friendly waiters - all of them truly nice lads and lasses. Both lunch and PrivatBank cards discounts are still working. Was vague to advertise(would be harder to get a vacant table;) but wanna thank the owners and the staff.

This is a nice restaurant in a very special building. There are also tables outside, popular with smokers even when the weather is chilly. But I got a table inside on the second floor. The interior is very nice, and the waitress spoke good English. I ordered an avocado salad which was very good, and after that a dish with pork which was nothing special, but not bad either.
The problem was the wine. I ordered a glass of one of the most expensive wines that was served by glass. However it tasted like the bottle had been open a very long time, alternatively the bottle was not good. When I told this to the waitress she just told me that the wine is fine, without taking notice of the problem. I was not interested in making a fuss about it, so I just drank my mineral water and left the wine.
But I will not return to this restaurant. Unfortunately some restaurants in Ukraine still have a long way to go before they achieve good customer service.

We went there on March, 8. We haven't booked a table for midday dinner, but luckily there was a spare one. It was in the basement. The food was really delicious. I ate a warm salad with chicken and pancakes with super-tasty cream. The service was excellent. The only slight minus was the interior design. I sat in front of the wall with scary faces that were quite unpleasant to see. I recommend this place for everyone who enjoys tasty dishes.

Has vegetarian options and tasty food. But the service is very slow. And when you order Takeout its quality is much worse then in the restaurant. I attach the photo of "artifacts" in my sander fillet from recent Delivery two months ago. Also all momos were tore apart. Since then I wasn't eager to order from Tibet and prefer other restaurants. I hope they will treat their regular clients better. I really liked the place, even celebrated my birthdays there regularly, but that Delivery was disgusting and too much disappointment.

This is definitely a special place, where even the most sophisticated cynics will be disarm by pleasant atmosphere, great music and caring staff. An island of warm in the heart of the city ensures the highest successful business meeting or a nice romantic dinner!

Quite ordinary place though it's in the center of the city. Music is too loud. Glintwein lacks honey. Food is nothing special. And you have to wait too long for your order.
