If you are tired of the hustle and bustle of the city, then just a 25-minute drive from Baku, towards Buzovna beach, in the Mərdəkan district, you can find a very good European-style restaurant with good service. Earlier, we reviewed the Beluga restaurant on the seashore, on the Buzovna beach itself, but it was not a European institution at all, and many advised us to visit the Dükkan restaurant. It cannot be said that this is an ideal 5–star place: the atmosphere, design and service are among the advantages. On the downside, the prices are above average, and the taste and serving of the dishes are quite classic.

There is an organic food store at the restaurant
– 🍳 Breakfast set for 2-3 persons (39 ₼) – surprisingly, the price of such a set does not include any meat and hot dishes. Usually a yumurt tomato is included in the breakfast, but here the dish must be ordered separately. There is no sujuk or sausage in the set. But of the unusual things in it there are grated nuts with honey, pancakes, Lezgian flatbread (very tasty). Delicious fresh bread and unlimited tea are served for breakfast (at least the kettle was replaced for free). But, with all this, the set is not worth the money.
Yumurt tomato in a rustic way (4.5 ₼) is a very classic dish, it could have been more butter, but on the whole it's not bad.
For breakfast, we were served a plate with pickled cucumbers, but when we noticed this, they were immediately replaced with fresh ones. Despite the disadvantages, we liked the breakfast: the place and the interior are beautiful, the service is good.
Just an amazing place. The four of us sat down, gathered salads and meat dishes. Everything was exceptionally delicious. The service was excellent, the waiter prompted everything, if there were questions, he answered everything. So I managed to try the original salad and stewed meat in cherry. The restaurant itself is a large courtyard with a bunch of pavilions. Everything is green. We really liked it.
The food and the quality of the products are 5. The service is excellent, we came across all Russian-speaking waiters. The atmosphere and interior, live music were also very pleasant. Minus one star for the prices, they are higher than in all nearby restaurants, although for my taste, all restaurants have very tasty food))) homemade lemonade, a liter, cost 15 manats, although there was nothing special in it, citrus fruits, mint and soda, fish also from 22 manats and above.
We came to this restaurant twice. Both times on purpose. The territory is very large, we sat in a large hall for 30 people only with my family (my husband and children and I) quietly and privately. You can walk around the territory, the restaurant halls are decorated in different styles, there are funny birds. The toilet is cleaned after each, the staff is responsive, almost everyone speaks Russian. The dishes are delicious and understandable, the sauces are very unusual. We took dolma, branded salad, gyurza (like dumplings), salad with tomatoes in cherry sauce, kebabs, gutabs. Everything was delicious, beautiful presentation. I recommend you to visit.
The atmosphere is very good, the food is at a high level, the price tag is very acceptable - the three of us sat for 180 manats with wine and a lot of food.
The restaurant is cozy, I personally did not like the beef basturma, very tough. I tried it 3 times and all times it's tough. The rest of the positions are without complaints, they cook delicious.
Nice fish restaurant. There were several times. Lots of space, different decoration of halls. They don't cook for a long time, considering that there are a lot of visitors. But some of the menu items were unavailable.
Unreasonably expensive restaurant. Like ginza, but they don't pull. The service is for 4, the food can't say that it's very tasty, but it's not bad either. On food for 4+
