We stumbled across this place on a road-trip through Ukraine, and had no idea what to expect as we entered the grounds - hungry for lunch. We don't speak Russian, but they had menus in English and ordering went fine. The place seemed to be a mix of a small hotel/restaurant. There were plenty of seats, and looked to be a typical local place for weddings and parties. The grounds were somewhat fairytale like with small cottages for eating, a stage, and small collections of chairs and tables - very charming. We had only salads, so hard to judge the food, but the salads were big, well put together and tasteful.

Pleasantville is the best place for those who enjoy bbq! They make these awesome grilled sausages....you have to try them! And there are also fish dishes on the menu in case you are not a meat lover (such as me).
The atmosphere is very relaxed, perfect place to share a meal with friends or watch some major sport on TV. Great service, really affordable prices and high quality food.
Location in the center of the city makes it impossible to miss this place.

All the items on the menu from the grill were excellent. Great variety of beers and nice atmosphere. The only issue I had was our waitress: she forgot to bring appetizer, we have to call her to reorder drinks every time and it looked like she was more interested in dancing than waiting tables.
4. Polisyanka Cafe

Meals are fresh, flavorful, spicy, cooked with care and love. Always dominant in "Polisyantsi" home-like atmosphere and comfort, carefully transferred and stored not only in food but also in the interior, creating harmony for the good mood and good "Ukrainian" meal!

Polisyanka is a small restaurant, decorated in traditions of Ukrainian house holding. Prices are reasonable, dishes are good cooked and tasty, menu has a big choice of meals. The one disadvantage I find there is a live music, which is usually really loud. Usually it is in the evenings, so be aware of that if you decide to have dinner in Polisyanka.

Everything to satisfy your sweet tooth is here. Inviting (though a bit crowded) atmosphere, polite service. Wonderful chocolate specialities, in both food & drinks. Be aware that "hot chocolate" in this part of the world is sometimes (as here) labelled "melted chocolate," & that's exactly what it is - much richer & thicker than the American variety, but SO delicious. Open fairly late, so a good stop-in for coffee, dessert, etc.

Modern cafe located in the very city centre on pedestrian Myhailivska street. Authentic Ukrainian menu, prices are very affordable. Also they make their own tasty alcoholic beverages - " nalyvka" with different flavours. Staff are quick and attentive, borsch and varenyki are great.

One evening we decided to try Mario's Italian restaurant. We ordered Cesar Salad, a Pizza and Ravioli. The atmosphere is very nice, staff are very friendly and very professional. Like everything in Ukraine, prices are very very cheap, offcourse this is a more upscale restaurant than others around Zhytomyr so the price would be a little bit more expensive but still very cheap compared to other countries. 6 of us dined with a meal each, Deserts, starters and lots of drinks and it worked out around £40
The portions for the pasta are not too big, but presented really well and was worth every penny.
I would recommend Mario's to anyone who is visiting Zhytomyr. It is a great family restaurant.

Cosy place, quiet yet in the very historical city centre, modern clean restaurant. But the food...well, it's not bad, but some were dull and tasteless, and you can find tastier places in the vicinity, and many dishes are not available, although the restaurant is located on ground floor of "Reikarz" hotel. Breakfasts were good though.
10. Buba Hinkalna

Reviewed By smallhausen1 - Manama, Bahrain
This place is very professionally managed and you feel here really like a welcomed guest. Menu offers traditional Georgian and Caucasus cuisine I tried kharcho soup and shashliks. Soup was excellent, but there was a small issue with shashliks: meat was not the best quality and thetefore some pieces were well done, while another ones medium. So it was very good but not outstanding.
