The restaurant with a hooligan's name is located at: Nauka Avenue, 14/1 A.

From the pros: a huge selection of dishes of Caucasian cuisine, delicious desserts, an extensive bar chart, non-tobacco hookahs. A decent choice of business lunches, which begin to cook after the order, and do not warm up in the microwave.

Of the minuses, which are few, note that some dishes can be cooked for a long time and do not always please service.

Obedbufet on Nevsky Prospekt, 114

"Ginza" restaurants in St. Petersburg opens a different format, and "Dinner Buffet" - a vivid confirmation of this. Judging by the opinions of visitors, this street food is a new way: a self-service café with a wide choice of dishes of European, Russian and Asian cuisines. Every day you can try something new, the menu allows. And all meals can be combined with each other. Price tag is also happy: the average check will be up to 500 rubles per person.

Unlike most institutions of this kind, the interior is carefully thought out and creates a feeling of coziness: wooden floors, lots of light, live plants, small tables, cabinets with utensils, cutlery, spices, napkins - for those who forgot to take what they need at the checkout.

From the minuses note that at lunchtime in a cafe is very crowded and not always possible to find free tables.

Kukumber

"Ginza" restaurants in St. Petersburg opens not only in the center of the city, but also in sleeping areas. In the shopping complex "Rainbow" on Prospect Cosmonauts, 14 is one of the institutions of the network.

"Kukumber" specializes in the dishes of French, Pan-Asian, Russian and European cuisines. Here you can taste delicious miso-soup and a salad of aubergines and chickpeas, teriyaki tuna, excellent roast beef and pasta. Visitors pay special attention to desserts: huge portions of cakes, familiar from childhood, melt in the mouth and are eaten, despite diets.

The pluses include an unusual interior: beams under the ceiling, lawns underfoot, an interestingly designed play area, an open kitchen. Of minuses, all are noted for a kind of service: the waiters are persistent, they "forget" about the order already made and have to "snoop" the staff themselves or wait patiently for you to be remembered.

"Smelt"

If you would like to visit a restaurant in the center of the city, then pay attention to the "Smelt" next to the Peter and Paul Fortress (Peter and Paul Fortress, 3). View eats on that: the historic center of the city, the Neva, a view of the arrow of Vasilievsky Island.

The interior of the establishment, according to visitors, also pleases the eye: wood and leather, muted tones, unusual lamps and an antique cupboard next to the bar. The menu without special delicacies, smelt in it is really presented and fried, and smoked, with different sauces. Of the pluses also note an excellent tea card.

Minuses, according to reviews, more, and all boil down to poor service, crowdedness (tables are very close to each other), loud background music and high cost - the average check is about 2000 rubles.

"Eggplant"

Another interesting institution is located in the TC "Gallery" in the city center (Ligovsky prospect, 30a). In "Eggplant" (restaurant "Ginza", St. Petersburg) the menu consists of dishes of Uzbek, Caucasian and European cuisines. Special attention, according to regulars, deserve shish kebabs and vegetable snacks from eggplants - all unusually tasty and moderately sharp. For a little money during a business lunch you can have a good lunch.

To the minuses, as in most other restaurants of the "Ginza Project", the visitors include the service: waiters are not always attentive and quick, they often forget about their guests.

«I want a grub»

Do you want to taste real Georgian cuisine? The holding company "Ginza" has restaurants in St. Petersburg and such. A colorful, bright and very soulful restaurant is located at Sadovaya Street, 39. Undoubtedly plus facilities are hours of work: at any time, guests can have a full dinner and supper, because "I want a kharcho" is open around the clock.

The interior is very cozy, and thanks to the thoughtful zoning there is no discomfort, even if the restaurant has a lot of visitors.

The menu is varied: here you will find dishes from meat and fish, specialty soups, desserts and an excellent bar chart. Guests especially celebrate kebabs cooked on the grill, aromatic kharcho and khachapuri for every taste. The kitchen is rather sharp, but tasty.

Also worth mentioning are relatively inexpensive business lunches with large portions, the ability to order food with you, children's menu and board games.

There are practically no minuses, if only the waiting time of the order during the "sold-out" hours. So "I want a bunch", which is part of the holding "Ginza Project" (restaurants, St. Petersburg), is one of the best institutions of the project.

"Marie Vanna"

Do you want to surprise guests with anything unusual? Invite them to the "Marivanna" - a small cozy restaurant of Russian cuisine in the Soviet retro style on Lenin Street, 18. Many visitors describe their impressions after visiting this place, as they "visited my grandmother at the dacha".

The interior is appropriate: a crystal slide in the cupboard, homespun paintings and black and white photos on the walls, cozy sofas and tables with starched white tablecloths. How unusual this looks for "Ginza" (restaurants in St. Petersburg), the photos clearly illustrate.

The menu pleases with the usual names: borsch, yushka, chicken and pea soups, pasta with stew, buckwheat with porcini mushrooms, cold meat with horse-radish, stuffed goose and patties.

Guests of the restaurant note that all portions are very large, they are tasty. Service at the height: the waiters are polite, efficient, the dishes are served on time, visitors are not forgotten.

Ribay

Perhaps, this is one of the most expensive projects of Ginza: restaurants in St. Petersburg cost an average of 1500 rubles, a check in "Ribaya" per person will be from 2500. What is famous for this institution and is it worth visiting?

If you like steaks and appreciate originality, then you should like it.

The interior is stern, sustained in the classic combination of "leather-tree". The highlight of the restaurant is the staff. Where else can you see singing and dancing waiters or magicians?

Fans of tranquility and solitude should choose a table on the second floor, on the first one always conduct show programs.

In the menu, in addition to steaks, on which the restaurant specializes, there are dishes of European and Japanese cuisines. Especially noteworthy salad "Nisuaz", tartar from scallops, desserts and, of course, steaks. Some dishes leave much to be desired, but there are not many.

The wine list is decent, but the prices are quite high, although there are quite budgetary options (for example, "home wine").

From the minuses note that it is not always possible to sit at a good table, so it's better to leave your reservation in advance, and a high average check.

"Attic"

Another restaurant from the "Ginza Project" in the style of "expensive and pathetic" is located on Pochtamtskaya Street, 3-5. Stunning views of the roofs of St. Petersburg and Isaac - one of the main advantages of this institution. Everything else, according to visitors, is quite average.

The interior is elegant, calm, in a classic, mature style. The menu is represented by dishes of European and Asian cuisines. Without special frills, everything is familiar and easily recognizable. But they cook delicious and the dishes are served beautifully. This ends the pluses and minuses begin.

Looking at reviews about restaurants "Ginza Project" (St. Petersburg), many visitors pay attention to the quality of service. According to many guests, here it is simply terrifying: the waiters are not attentive, they can forget about the table reservation at the reception and do not even apologize for the inconvenience. Too loud background music and a high average check - from 3500 per person without drinks. But, despite the disadvantages, the average rating of the restaurant is 8.1. So go there or not, it's up to you.
