Velvetti — Restaurant in Druskininkai

I wanted to try this place last winter about the same time as it was highly recommended. Wasn’t lucky as the place was closed for holidays but I got the chance to go this winter and I have to say that it was a great experience for many reasons. First off the staff was very professional and pleasant. Second of all the menu was very good as I know that a small menu means fresh ingredients and quality of food. The wine selection was phenomenal, the variety is rich and complements the menu. Me and the wife were in between the ravioli, the osso buco and the pizzas which we ended up going with. I had the Diavolo and the wife had the Pizza “Joy”. Last time I ate the crust was in New York and Vancouver which are very well know for their pizza quality. Best pizza we had in years, fresh dough, crusty outside but soft and fluffy on the inside cooked to perfection. Lest alone the quality of the ingredients and the smart presentation with the wooden platter and cooking paper. I complemented the workers and was happy with the overall experience, sipping on our Primitivo red. At the night we went in, the owner had won that very same night the local award for best product. I think it was an award very well deserved. I am not trying to influence anyone but I think I am definitely coming back again and agaain. Thank you for the service and see...

One of the worst meals in Druskininkai and the restaurant couldn't care less. It's been a while since I had such a disappointing meal. My husband ordered a pizza and it was okay. I ended up waiting another 10 minutes for my food to arrive. So when I started to eat my husband was nearly finished. Awkward. If the meal was worth the wait maybe I could put aside the long wait but unfortunately the meat I had was dry, tasted like it was cooked 2 days ago. The restaurant staff didn't bother to come up and ask us how was our meal even though it was very quiet  (one of the many bad signs). Quite a few flies in the restaurant, weird wet dog smell (without there being any dogs). I told them my course was unedible and the waitress just shrugged and walked off. We had to pay for a meal I didn't finish. No one apologised for the wait or bad food. One of the worst dining experiences I've ever had. AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE.

From the reviews I've realised that at some point they did nice food but not anymore. Most recent one are probably bought fake reviews. Go on, give this restaurant a try and order something other than pizza haha. What a...

Waited around 40-50 minutes for 2 pizza's and 2 grilled dishes. The tax-mex pizza felt very barren as there was only some tomato sauce and clustered up meat. The capricosa pizza was beter with much more on the dough. The pizzas were quite oily tho and felt some areas either unbaked or overbaked.

The 2 grilled dishes were grilled quite well but instead of the vegetables being crispy and moist they felt really soggy. The grilled potato "pie" was really odly grilled and was quite off. There would be a lot more vegetables but instead we were met with one slice courgette, 2 mushroom slices and also 2 slices of paprika and a very abundant amount of BBQ sauce.

Although the tall black haired woman who serviced us that evening was very nice and very hospitable and greatly...
