Everything is very delicious! Salads are of enormous size, everything is very fresh, with plenty of vegetables and diverse greens, and a very tasty dressing. In principle, you can satisfy your hunger with just one salad; it's very large. The soups are also excellent – vegetable puree soup and goulash soup with beef are simply finger-licking good. The burger is juicy, and the fries and barbecue sauce are yum-yum. You choose the steaks yourself from a whole refrigerator of properly aged magnificent meat. However, keep in mind that different types of steaks have different weights, and the price is determined by the weight, so carefully check the menu before ordering. Talk to the waiter to avoid being surprised by a high price per weight, as some customers mentioned in previous reviews. But if you order any steak here, it will be outstanding, well-aged, of the highest quality, and prepared exceptionally well. Grilled vegetables as a side dish are also excellent. The chefs are very charming and professional; you can observe them working in the open kitchen right from your table. It's evident that they are masters of their craft and enjoy their work, making the food very tasty. We tried one dessert – chocolate soufflé with mint ice cream, and it was wonderful. I recommend this place to anyone who loves to eat delicious food in a...
Read moreImportant: call to make a reservation on weekends, restaurant is fully booked starting from the lunch time.
We have visited the restaurant on Saturday evening and were hardly seated, thanks to the perfect service the waiter managed to find us a table.
The menu is available online and is up to date.
Black cheese with olives was simply some slices of truffle cheese and home marinated olives, olives were delicious. Beef carpaccio was great.
For the main course we had mashed potatoes with the rare rib eye steak - everything great, there the steaks are already cut, put in vacuum, you may choose the one you like in the fridge. Expect that the smallest one I found was 260 grams (that is a little too much for me). Also loved the broad variety of home made sauces. We also had pork chop with a bone (called pork steak), was well cooked, but slightly overcooked - lacked moist and juice. As a side the potato with the cheese sauce was added - it is huge, along with the big size of chop it forms a BIG dish.
Open kitchen, good way to follow your dish being prepared, still expect the kitchen smell...
Read moreI'm guessing this is a popular place, it was pretty busy when we arrived on a Saturday and all tables on terrace where taken or booked. But having spent most of the day in hot sun sitting in an air-conditioned room is not the worst that can happen :) All in all, i can mostly say positive things about Vistiņas, Karbonades Steiki! The staff work efficiently, my pork shashlik came fast and was very juicy and prices, from the first look at the menu, seem very attractive. But please be careful - you will be billed for each and every addition to your meat dish - souse, sides and water. If I would evaluate only my meal I would happily give the place 5 stars. I enjoyed my shashlik, with fresh vegetables and pickled cherry tomatos but my bf wasn't nearly satisfied with the quality of his food, so I will have to stick with 4 stars. The oven baked potato was supposedly burnt, the beef sausage - too dray, and the pickled onions...
