A small and very cozy restaurant. It's quiet and peaceful, unlike the place opposite. We tried pork chop and "Bear stump". It was cooked quickly, it was very tasty! I really liked the cherry tincture, I recommend it!The toilet is clean, everything is very aesthetically pleasing. We will be happy to come again.

Very cozy, quiet, calm, friendly, delicious, sincere. If you don't like the noise and hubbub, go here. The strudel is just a bomb, I haven't eaten it for a long time, and it's hot, so few places serve it.

I really liked everything, we took borscht, draniki, sorcerers. Delicious and exciting. If you wish, make dumplings for borscht with dumplings, not a loaf, they will not be priced) I especially recommend that instead of the popular cafe opposite with a permanent full landing, there are few people here, it's quiet, they bring it quickly.

It's a great place. We often celebrate family events at the Khmilnitsa cafe. Delicious food, beautiful presentation and good service. The prices are affordable. Thanks to Sergey and Svetlana for the cozy atmosphere and individual approach to the client.

Convenient location. The service is not very hospitable: no one greets you, does not accompany you to a table. Order waiting time: 5-15 minutes. Prices are average: for example, draniki with salmon 25 rubles. According to taste: I didn't like the hodgepodge, it was very salty; draniki and dumplings - 👍🏻👍🏻. The most unexpected and strange thing for our time is that the bill for three cannot be paid in installments in different ways (some with cash, others with a card, for example), and payment by phone also does not work ((.

If you want to eat quickly, inexpensively, and deliciously, and you don't care if they serve you with a smile or if the service depends entirely on the mood of the waiter, then go here. We accidentally got into this place because there was a full boarding at the Pansky Dranik (across the street) and we didn't want to wait. It was delicious for us, and the gloomy mood of the waiter did not bother us, as we were on the positive side of the holiday.

Well, what can I say, dear reader!? If you are traveling through beautiful Belarus, walking in the center of Minsk, cold, hungry - you should definitely look into Khmelnitsa! You will be warmly welcomed, entertained with conversation, deliciously fed and watered! Sincere people! Be sure to try the horseradish made by the owner of this beautiful cafe himself, it's just a bomb! Fragrant, strong and soft at the same time! We highly recommend you to visit

Sooo liked it, delicious, fast, inexpensive. We went to all the famous locations of Minsk on May 9: Bulbashi and other Cornflowers, everywhere is "turn away", there are no places by appointment or waiting for 1.5 hours ..., we came here at random and did not regret it, delicious, thank you I definitely recommend it

I didn't like the food, there was a very intrusive waiter who brazenly begged for tips. We went there by chance, the hall was empty and no one else came into our presence at all. The borscht is not very tasty, the dumplings are cooked in old butter, which was very noticeable. Also, despite the fact that the waiter recorded the order, as a result, not everything that was ordered was brought! The person from our company had to wait for the order to be delivered after the reminder! In general, I do not recommend this institution at all! It's better to go to the Pansky dranik, which is against it.

Among other things, the variety of "must see" restaurants in Minsk, I would like to mention the wonderful Khmelnitsa! An absolutely underestimated restaurant, because it is incredibly tasty, cozy, warm and soulful. A wide variety of national Belarusian dishes, in my humble opinion, is no worse, and in many ways better than the popular establishments. I would also like to mention the friendly host Sergey and his branded tinctures, just 10 out of 10. We wish you prosperity and lots of guests. Sincerely and greetings from Krasnodar from Sergey, two Galina and Arina.

From a good location. The food is not wow. I make draniki much tastier. I didn't like the service at all. One unfriendly waiter came in and didn't even flinch, let alone say hello and offer a table. We took the menu ourselves, too. There were 6 men sitting in the next room, drinking and behaving loudly, so the other guests all left there. I don't recommend it. I didn't like it. We won't go there anymore.

It was a Friday night, and there was only one company in the second room and no one else. There were a lot of dishes on the tables, it was obvious that there were some visitors. We sat down with a group of 8 people, there were glasses on the table, which were removed from the table only when we approached the waiter several times. No one had approached us before and asked if we were ready to place an order. Although we were around 20 minutes at the table. After another 20 minutes, the waiter came to take the order, but again, only after we reminded him that we were sitting in the hall. The food was carried for so long that there was no mood to eat anymore + we still did not see some of the items that we ordered. The cooking time is also long, even considering that we were the only customers at the time of ordering. I can't say that there was anything wow about the food, it was a fairly ordinary kitchen, but it was cold. The glasses that were brought were all covered in the remains of paper towels, which they had most likely been wiped with. I didn't want to drink from them at all. We also wanted to pay the check in cash and by card, but we were told that there was no such option and we had to pay in full with cash/card. No one reported that the terminal does not accept Apple Pay or other payment methods without using a physical card. It's like this is the first time the institution has had this situation and they don't know that it doesn't work for them. The toilet is clean enough, but this is the only advantage that this establishment has. 😔

It was April 4th. the borscht is delicious, the draniki are not bad, but the place opposite tastes better, and there was very salty fish. The waiter was offered a tip, but after it didn't work out, he left it and began to compulsively ask for it. The waiter was also watching VULGAR videos very loudly at the bar, which could be heard at the table where the children were sitting. I consider this unacceptable. We were not very comfortable, we will not come again.

I was celebrating my wife's birthday. I rented a large hall for this case. I wanted it to be at home and without strangers at the neighboring tables. Svetlana suggested menu options and how she sees the organization of the space. We have determined the best option. As a result, they rested with their company in a separate room (the children also had a space organized with a separate table and board games). The holiday was a success, everyone was well-fed and satisfied. It turned out really homely. The guests liked the wide range of dishes and the fact that they can include their favorite dance tracks. I thank Svetlana and Sergey for organizing the holiday!

It's not a bad restaurant. We went there after shopping at the Stolitsa shopping center. I was confused by the fact that there were no visitors at all, neither when they arrived, nor during the entire stay. We were also alerted by negative reviews on Yandex. But everything went well, there are no complaints about the quality of the food, it is hospitable, the menu is rich, everything is there. Even the lard was excellent, which is not on the menu. A chanson is playing on TV. In general, it's not super, but it's quite decent.

We were in Minsk with my family, went to eat, saw a good rating and did not read the reviews, trusted.... At the entrance, a waiter greets you with a look of "why are you here"? The question is can I eat? The answer is, well, yes, and he puts us in the first hall, where there are very small tables, and we are 4 adults and a small child, with a sigh, he takes us to another hall, thank you for letting us in there. We make an order, there is no such thing, there is no other, there is no banal cappuccino… And what is there? Answer: I can make espresso with milk, and there will be the same cappuccino. The dishes are tasteless, cooked in a huge amount of terrible burnt oil. I ordered fried salmon with potatoes, it's impossible to eat fish, it's too salty, the salmon itself seems to have been frozen and thawed several times before cooking, the smell is terrible, the skin has not been removed, I refused the dish. We ordered pancakes with chicken, meat mixed with cartilage, we order strudel with ice cream, there is no ice cream. They bring the bill, I check that there are no dishes that I refused, I find a mistake, there was 1 portion of pancakes in the order, 2 were punctured. I show it to the waiter, silence for a minute, with a look at how tired I am of finding fault, and the answer is, I will give you THESE 7 rubles in cash. No wonder the place was empty, if you want to spoil your impressions of the city, come. Those who write good reviews probably haven't been to really delicious places.

Terrible attitude towards customers. We were with the company on Friday. The restaurant is open until 23:00. The kitchen was closed at 21:55 and nothing could be ordered because the cook had already left. The bartender-waiter behaved as if we were bothering him because we were alone in the establishment.

A small cafe in the very center of Minsk. Independence Square is about 200 meters away. We went in on Friday evening, and there was no problem finding a table. Perhaps because Volodarsky Street is not a party street. I liked the kitchen - there is a choice and everything was delicious. I liked the prices even more, which are in other establishments in this part of Independence Avenue. Service is a separate plus. The waiter is very attentive and correct. I admit, I want to come back here even just because of this level of service. The cafe has three halls, one of which is a banquet hall. All are stylish and with a very inviting atmosphere.

We went to the sign about the local cuisine, the place itself looks like an ordinary glasshouse. The prices are slightly above average, the service is fast, but it does not leave a feeling that we are not welcome here, although the place was completely empty. The quality of the food is 4-. In general, I would not recommend this place.

Overall, the place is not bad, but the interior is quieter and I would even say pub-like. We were alone in the whole hall, we felt comfortable, if there were at least half of the hall, it would no longer be comfortable.
