Our small group went here for supper the other evening. We visited this restaurant quite some time ago and looked forward to our return. We were greeted kindly by staff and seated near the bar - comfy seats. The waiter took our drink and starters order and had them to our table very quickly. Both the antipasti plate and buratta were very good. We ordered our mains and enjoyed a few drinks while waiting. The waiter (also our bartender) was very friendly. He was suggesting drinks to suit our tastes and took time to explain how they were made. When our mains came out, the first thing to notice was the care taken for the presentation - they looked great. My risotto was rich and delicious, with the rice done perfectly. How good was it? Others at the table ordered one to share after their meal hahahaha. My wife's steak was cooked perfectly and tasted great. I would have to say everything was perfect at this point. The dessert choices were not quite what we were expecting. The chocolate chip cookie was a bit hard (almost like biscotti). The peanut butter cookie was good. I did order one of their main dessert selections - the Rhubarb Mousse. It was definitely something different - just not quite what I was expecting. Overall, this evening out was a great meal. The atmosphere, the food, the drinks, and service were great. Thanks for a great meal.

Small place with inside/outside seating (outside seating consists of 3 tables). It has low-lighting and cozy chairs creating an intimate atmosphere. There was only one waitress and she was hustling the entire time attending to every table. She was very polite, warm and accommodating. Having said this, I was felt rushed - not because she was busy - but because that is the vibe here. As for the food, I was not impressed. The edamame barely had any salt so I was essentially eating plain steamed edamame - no flavor just texture. The tuna tartare was unimpressive. The sweet potato puree was cold tasteless as was the tuna as it was thickly sliced and therefore the center was refrigerator-cold atop the cold puree and pesto. The highlight of this place for me was the relaxed vibe and cozy space. I would not recommend.

Lunch Menu was very delicious, as well as risotto. Very interesting combinations on the Menu. Would come back to this place. Also very nice atmosphere and service. Also went here for the second time, tried 5 course lunch, which was very tasty, first was salmon marinated in beetroot and horseradish cream, was very great starter, prepared well, second was paste made from duck with figs, I really enjoyed this one, loved the combination, third one was sea food (mussels, tuna, prawns) in saphron tomato sauce - it was not so good as previous ones, sauce itself was excellent but unfortunately sea food was a bit overdone, forth one was deer meat, it was excellent, mine was perfect temperature with tasty marinade. Overall, great experience, for me portions were little too small.

This place has become a tourist trap - the ingredients are of the very cheapest quality. For brunch, they serve macaroni cheese and random vegetables covered in mayonnaise. Coffee is €4.5 - and it’s one of the worst coffees I have had in Riga (and I live here!!). A super basic brunch that doesn’t get refilled is €20 each, same as lunch in one of the best restaurants in the city. It’s very sad- La Kanna is an overpriced place with very poor food and disappointing service. I hope people start realizing that the food is awful and start going to the new places appearing that offer at least decent value.

A cozy place in Riga city center. There’s no much space there, but still comfortable enough for dinner for two people. Prices are moderate and are as expected for place in a center of the city. Staff speaks Latvian, Russian and English. Quite friendly service. The decoration is nice looking. A bruschetta appetizer, risotto and a soup were 23€ in total. They serve both wine and beers.

Very nice european-cuisine restaurant on Terbatas Street. Cosy and romantic atmosphere and good table service. Menu has a number of vegetarian options - I had falafel with green peas and potato with yoghurt and pesto dressing which tasted great. My partner had a slow-cooked beef cheek which tasted amazing and literally felt like it was melting in your mouth. Highly recommend!
