It is a beautiful place, but in a few years more palm trees have been cut down. It used to be more attractive. There is a nice park and a very beautiful promenade nearby. The disadvantage is the large number of tourists.
My dear compatriots, I want to write a review about the Gagripsh restaurant, yesterday my husband and I visited this restaurant, to say that we are satisfied, this is not enough, we were delighted with the unusual atmosphere, beauty, waiters, everyone smiles, Pavel served us, tactful, polite, recommended good dishes to us, yes, it's expensive but it's worth it for those who want to come eat a pie and drink coffee, go to a cafe, there is no money, do not come here, who just wants to look, there is no museum here, and there is no passageway, so at the entrance they tell you that you need a dip, we came with a smile, and we were also greeted we have been to Abkhazia twice, dreamed that one day we would go to this restaurant, and we saved up and spent money without regret, what a wonderful cuisine here, everything is delicious, live music, violin, the whole evening after, I was impressed, thank you all!
It's a very cozy place. Chic interior, courteous staff. Kitchen and serving 10 out of 10. Live music deserves special praise - very talented performers🥰
It's just a great place!
The food is beyond praise. We took pork loin, meat steak (meat dishes are simply divine, very tasty dishes). We ordered a salad (it was very tasty, but a lot of oil spoiled it). Also, we took an exclusive wine for this restaurant (the wine is very tasty). The food is just great, I really liked it!
The service is excellent. The waiters are friendly, know the menu and can recommend interesting combinations of food, wine and tea!
The staff is extremely pleasant!
The atmosphere and interior are simply magical (it was January 3rd). Live classical music, garlands, antique interior do their job. The appearance of Gagripsh and the interior are simply excellent!
In general, this is a great place that I advise all lovers of classical music and clothes to visit!
9 stars out of 10 (don't let people in T-shirts in)
A decent restaurant, good staff and a delicious menu, the atmosphere is conducive to a pleasant evening with a glass of wine, I recommend their signature wines to everyone, red, just fine, I'll go back there just for a glass of wine)))
A very beautiful place! Sturgeon is just super tasty. Polite staff. Fast and beautiful serving of dishes. Ear is served royally with a glass of vodka and a sandwich with red caviar. I liked everything. A deposit of 1,500 rubles is taken from a person, you can go everywhere to take pictures. 👍
The most famous restaurant in Abkhazia does not know what service and good cuisine are! We visited this place with a friend. At the entrance, we were informed that the evening deposit is 2000, approx. In case of incomplete boarding, the institution was offered to sit either at the stage itself or on the balcony, okay, we sat on the balcony. Then some kind of game began, the waitress repeated several times that the deposit was 2000 and whether she would definitely open the champagne and whether we would definitely stay and order for such a "large amount". They don't look like schoolgirls with a friend for a long time. There was no ordinary Abkhazian wine, apparently only this restaurant was not delivered, only their branded wine was available for 3000.We ordered mussels in sauce, khachapuri boat, salad with roast beef and fried suluguni. We didn't finish any of the dishes! Mussels are small and dry, instead of roast beef in the salad there was just boiled meat, a boat - it feels like a raw egg was poured on a friendship cheese, the cheese did not stretch as it should do in a boat! Fried suluguni.. There are no words.. It was just something in the shape of Julia Vysotskaya's cheesecakes floating in a pile of butter , and even fried with pesto !! After a piece of this cheese, nausea tormented me all night. I do not know if other dishes had to be ordered to be edible, but in a good restaurant all dishes should be able to cook well! One of the three cubicles is working in the toilet! I definitely do not recommend it!
A beautiful place, delicious food, romantic atmosphere, near the embankment, very beautiful and atmospheric, the sea, damn, it's a buzz, palm trees and bamboo, the sound of the surf)))
A wonderful historical place. Live music gives you goosebumps, perfectly complements the place. The staff is polite and pleasant. I will be in Gagra, I will definitely come again.
A very beautiful restaurant, ancient. I advise everyone to visit there, the service is the best by Abkhazian standards. The food is delicious. But be prepared, the minimum order is from 1,500 per person + 10% service.
Delicious cuisine. Pleasant atmosphere inside. Live music in the evening. A great place to have dinner. If you are in doubt whether to go or not, put aside your doubts and be sure to visit this historic place!
I dreamed of visiting the Gagripsh restaurant, which is interesting for its history of appearance in Gagra. The company decided to celebrate the end of the vacation in it. Having booked in advance, we entered a chic hall that was completely filled with people. A very atmospheric place! Good service, live music (violin, saxophone), delicious food, gorgeous view of the sea and sunset from the balcony! I recommend you to visit!
I definitely recommend visiting the Gagripsh restaurant, I liked everything: from the kitchen to the service, Many thanks to Regina- thank you for being with us (the girl who charmed us with her hospitality in the hall, gave us her warmth and kindness!)
The food is very tasty, the feeling is like in a museum, the staff is without special manners, perhaps a discount is being made on the flow of tourists from the regions. Cool, clean, cozy, relaxing from the hustle and bustle of the resort town. The restaurant is very beautiful.
Of course, this is an iconic place and one of the most beautiful business cards of Abkhazia. This restaurant was bought by the Prince of Oldenburg somewhere far away in the north of Abkhazia, disassembled, brought to Gagra and assembled. Its appearance has hardly changed since the tsarist times. The food is very tasty, but the price tag also matches. The girls will of course take a lot of beautiful photos there.
The food has 3 stars, the chefs are handsome. But the service is on a solid stake. They take a deposit of 2000 rubles / person, while the service is worse than in canteens. Several dishes and some utensils were brought. Apparently, I have to eat a dish for 2000 rubles with the same fork as the previous one, and there are different sauces and so on. The service is immediately included in the receipt, but I wouldn't give a ruble for it. Well, the nail in the coffin of service is live music. First there was an infernally out-of-tune violinist, then a woman singing fierce game. It's such a greeting from the 90s that I laughed. "Bravo to the dancers," if you understand what I mean, Dear owners of the establishment, take an experienced manager. It's a shame for the chefs that such delicious food is killed by such service. I almost forgot about the fine of 1000 rubles for walking around the restaurant, Take it off, don't be ashamed, it's better to add another hostess to stop this
Visiting this restaurant is a mistake of the whole vacation in Abkhazia . To be honest, it would be better to throw a shawl at the station. We ordered homemade pickles, we thought we'd put the cherries up now, as a result we brought a bunch of sooo weakly pickled cabbage and one cucumber (it was a shock). Further more when the waitress came up and asked if she liked everything ? The answer was immediately given: no homemade pickles are a complete mess, to which she replied: we don't like it ourselves. Most of the dishes on the menu are not from the word at all.., why are Abkhazian dishes in Abkhazia?the waiter advised (more precisely, there was practically nothing else)the meat, which is supposedly the favorite of the Prince of Odenbursky, is in fact julienne in a frying pan in the common people (hryuchevo).It is clear that this institution works for the flow of photographers, but you are a RESTAURANT!!!! It's not too difficult to make a normal menu and call a normal cook, the price tag is overestimated in terms of price-quality ratio three times, the deposit for two is 4K total crap, if next time you came, then you would take chachi for this deposit!!!
We have long wanted to visit this restaurant - the building is incredibly beautiful and luxurious, the interiors inside are in the Art Nouveau style.
We ordered mussels and Prince salad with seafood, fricassee also, it seemed delicious, but nothing supernatural.
In the evening, it became so bad that for a day hugging the toilet, never set foot in this restaurant again!
It is a pity that new owners who do not monitor the kitchen and employees leave on a hundred-year-old reputation
For the first time, at the age of 10, I heard from my father and saw this restaurant as something unattainable! To understand when it was, I'm 53 now!
Then the film, TASS is authorized to declare! The spy visits Gagripsh restaurant with his girlfriend! A symbol of well-being, prosperity, being at the top of the social pyramid! And so, at the age of 53, I found myself inside this greatness with my family! I cannot convey the disappointment that I felt. But then, later, the real realization came. After all, this is a place to visit if you happen to be in Abkhazia. The kitchen is very decent, although there is a deposit with a minimum threshold, but it is not critical, it is quite accessible to most, and especially to those for whom this name is not an empty sound! Take a look, especially since there is no alternative.
The place is atmospheric, with a history. It's interesting to sit in an institution and imagine how balls used to be held here. We came here only because of this.
The kitchen was not impressed at all, some kind of ordinary food. I ordered a salad, grilled tongue and grilled vegetables too. The tongue wasn't bad, but it was just boiled, it didn't come into contact with the grill. The vegetables were cold for some reason, as if they had been cooked long before the order. The salad is ordinary. The deposit is 2000 rubles per person, but considering the price tag, it is not difficult to order for this amount. I did not like the position "10% service", while they additionally write in the receipt that you can leave a tip.
In general, the establishment is for one time.
Delicious. Expensive. Sturgeon is perfectly cooked on fire. Musical accompaniment in the evening will pleasantly complement your evening. This year, the toilets were put in decent shape.
I read a lot of bad reviews and had doubts whether it was worth eating there at all. Local people said it was worth it and we didn't regret it.
I think the bad reviews are no longer about food, but about the financial part.
Yes, there is a deposit of 1,500 per person, but this is a local landmark, what kind of food will people eat when everyone goes around just to see. I don't think so.
The prices are not cheap, it's true, but we knew where we were going. The food and drinks are very tasty.
I read reviews about the arrogant stares of the staff, I don't know, I didn't notice. We were in the afternoon and I was in shorts and a top, there were no arrogant looks, in general, everyone sees what they want to see.
Tips are included in the bill as everywhere else and amount to 10%, but we have been resting for several days and are used to it.
The place itself is not bad. In general, if finances allow, eat, the food is good.
Very nice, live music, there is a large terrace overlooking the sea. Good service and menu. There is a very large hall, there is a balcony, decorated with wood. A receipt from 2000 rubles, for those who want to visit. It's worth it.
The atmosphere of the place is great thanks to literally everything that surrounds you. The building itself, assembled without a single nail, a whiff of history is felt by every cell of the skin. We were served by the waiter Ekaterina, who not only offered various dishes in detail and deliciously, but also immersed us in the details of historical events that took place in this iconic place.
The kitchen is beyond praise.
Delight!
Well, this is the place where I wanted to go, we arrived at 14 o'clock, there were a lot of free tables, we were well received, they let us in with a stroller (the child was asleep). The check per person is 1500 rubles, 50% for children under 7 years old. I must say right away, the dishes are expensive, so 1500 is not clear why)) apparently to work out, and not to come in for coffee)) we were 2 vz and 5 children, one of the children was 14 years old, discounts and no congratulations were given to the child, although I asked if there was something like that. They said this is a seasonal restaurant and there are no discounts, well, somehow you can at least give a piece of cake and a candle from the restaurant, especially since everything is clearly included in the prices) + 10% for service, by the way, this is also a nuance. We ate for 16 tr, well, it was worth it, sooo tasty and quickly cooked. The impressions were pleasant from this restaurant. I recommend you to visit, it's worth it
If you want to have a good time, have a delicious meal, try the local cuisine - you are not here. The restaurant was closed for some time for reconstruction. No major changes are visible. The waiters "sleep in a yoke", they are in no hurry to approach, but in the receipt plus 10 percent is mandatory. They asked if it was possible not to pay? The answer is included there. The food is very ordinary, We had lunch many times in less pretentious places, it was even tastier. There is no payment by cards, only by transfer to a card or cash. After we sat down at the table, we were warned that the minimum check per person is 1500. We didn't plan on spending less, but it was frustrating considering everything else. There are signs everywhere-you can't go there, there too, the restaurant is not an excursion for you. I'm sorry, you're positioning yourself as a historical place. Of course, everyone is interested to see at least the photos in the hall. The toilet was working in only 1 of the three cubicles. And if there's a full house? I do not recommend it categorically.
This is an amazing place in Abkhazia, where I was glad to be. There is live music in the restaurant, and it is better to book tables in advance. The concert starts at 19 o'clock.
The minimum deposit for two is 3,000 rubles. Payment terminals do not always work, and sometimes it is impossible to make a payment by card (waiters say that their cards are often blocked), so do not forget to bring cash with you.
The restaurant's menu is very diverse, the portions are large, and the prices are affordable. I recommend this place to everyone!
Of the advantages, only 1 is a beautiful historical place that fell into inept hands. I've been dreaming of visiting this restaurant for a long time, but I got completely disappointed((. The huge tables in the restaurant are designed for 6-8 guests, if you come alone or in a couple, you are simply offered to sit at a table with strangers (((. The waiter who served us does not know how to keep his distance, is a liar and a boor. The food turned out to be 3, it tastes better in any beach cafe, although the portions are huge. When you are inside the restaurant, there is a feeling that there is no harmony. It's like an ordinary dining room has been moved to a beautiful place. As a result: there is a bright wrapper on the outside, and a poop inside. I do not recommend this place, at most take a photo near the historical building.
Excellent restaurant,delicious food,live music and I really liked the restaurant's signature wine, the prices are not as high as they say, a worthy place in Gagra, definitely worth a visit.
Very tasty, just great. This is the main ranking place in the Gagra. The language is just a masterpiece, They offered an exclusive wine, and I don't drink red wine in principle, but it was just incomparable.
It was like this. We walked around the seaside park and after lunch, according to the plan, we wanted to look into this restaurant.
Since we had lunch and we didn't have plans to have lunch twice, we wanted to visit the restaurant for coffee and cakes or something for dessert. From the entrance, we were announced to enter the restaurant with a deposit of 1,500 per person, we were in three. Somehow, even by St. Petersburg and Moscow standards, this is an exorbitant price for a coffee cake at the price of 4,500, thanks to the restaurant, it looks so-so, an ordinary large hall with exorbitant ambitions...
We decided to visit this institution as part of sightseeing of old Gagra and drink a cup of coffee, contemplating the views of the restaurant. However, our humble desires were immediately wrapped up by a nice lady at the entrance (the receptionist?) informing us that it will cost us 4,500 re to enter and occupy an empty table. Just to come in and sit at a table for 4,500 rubles, Karl!!! Not to mention ordering something, of course I understand that the restaurant is very popular and all that... But not to the same extent... If this institution were located somewhere in the center of Dubai, and not surrounded by overgrown trees and abandoned sanatoriums, then these prices could still be understood... Moreover, about 8 years ago, the entrance was completely free. So dear tourists and guests, if you have extra money, you are welcome, as they say, and we will do it some other time.
An atmospheric place. The interior is stunning. The service is at the highest level. My family is absolutely delighted with the kitchen. I have never tasted such delicious dishes anywhere.
Good afternoon.The review is belated, but very honest!I love this restaurant!!!!When coming to Abkhazia, we definitely come to Gagripsh.Everything is at the highest level!The service, the interior and everything is great!
The most popular place in Abkhazia and our most expensive and tasteless lunch.
Of course, the place is iconic and definitely worth a visit to admire the views and architecture, but still it's a restaurant and the food there leaves much to be desired.
In the royal fish soup, in which several types of fish were promised, there were shrimps and squid,
Flounder simply fried came out at 4 k, and why does the waiter not specify that the price per gram is also interesting.
The strudel was really delicious, so I put stars for it.
Those who want to try the national cuisine are definitely not here.
And if you have a fat wallet and little experience in food, please.
Oh, this institution is the most controversial in all of Abkhazia. It is well-known. Being a local landmark, crowds of people come here, allowing the locals to profit from it. if we discard the historical significance of the institution, then in fact it is the most mediocre restaurant. The deposit at the entrance was charged 2000 rubles per person. When asked why not one and a half, as I read in the reviews below, the girl at the reception explained that 1,500 rubles per person is a daily deposit, and in the evening 2,000 rubles. In general, it feels like the price is taken out of your head.
On food: again, contradictory impressions. Salads are really very tasty and correspond to the declared level. Almost all dishes from the "Abkhazian cuisine" section are missing, which is very strange, considering that the place is historical and, in fact, food should be offered in accordance with the concept. But there is Tom Yam soup. Unfortunately, it's just disgusting. I ate a lot of different Tom yams in various establishments of different price segments, but this was the most disgusting Tom Yam. Rather, it's just fish soup.
Service: should Abkhazia even talk about it? The waiter served us as if we were servants. He spoke through his teeth, but he didn't want to help at all. but most of all, I was surprised that when ordering the main dishes, coffee and dessert, the first thing the waiter brought out was coffee. To my remark that I would like to drink coffee with dessert and preferably not cold coffee, the waiter reimbursed me that I actually did not warn him about this in advance. Surprisingly, even in establishments of a class below this, the waiters themselves are interested in when to serve drinks. It is NOT the client who should take care of this. At the same time, as everywhere in Abkhazia, the institution charges a service fee of 10% of the receipt. It's funny, because there is no smell of service here. I think as long as there is a service fee in the country, we will not wait for service, because waiters do not need to try and you can be rude, rude and treat customers randomly, because tips will fall into their pocket. And the passability of the restaurant is such that it is not necessary to try to ensure that the guest returns to them at all.
As a result, the restaurant, as an attraction, can be visited and viewed from the outside. But I would not recommend eating there. There are establishments with much better taste and service. Disappointed
"They earn money from history, but they just don't want to bother filling a decently beautiful shell."
I was waiting for something unusual from this popular place: delicious local cuisine, attentive service. The menu upset us: the dishes are very ordinary, mostly European cuisine, the presentation is not interesting, the cost is high. Wine with a huge margin and tasteless. This restaurant definitely lacks a competent, modern approach to service. But it could have turned out to be a really wonderful restaurant.
I usually don't write reviews, but I couldn't pass by here, because the reviews in this restaurant are just bought!! We were here for the first time and will never return and we do not recommend it to anyone!!! We were met by an arrogant girl who said from the doorway that we should spend at least 3,000 for two and was very unhappy that we moved to another table (the air conditioner was blowing strongly), shouted across the hall that we had moved, as in a collective farm. There are signs everywhere that you can't go anywhere, everything is forbidden. Of the 3 cubicles in the toilet, only one works and that is very narrow and uncomfortable. The elderly waitress is very unfriendly, frankly impolite. We waited a very long time for the order to be accepted, and even longer for the food to be delivered. All the dishes are not delicious, they did not understand at all who is praising the food here. Among other things, tips are already included in your bill automatically, so the waiters are relaxed, good service does not even smell. A complete disappointment, in general! Such an iconic place, a building selling itself and such mediocrity inside
We were two years ago at 22, wrote a review, disappeared somewhere. The building itself is just a beauty, from the Valhalla game!! But already at 22 I gave a rating of 3, since the food is so-so, I waited for meat for 2 hours, it is not possible to eat. But my daughter and wife liked the sweets and lemonade. And at 24, we decided to go in for a drink of lemonade and eat sweets with tea. But no!!! With brooms glued instead of eyelashes, she said that they were allowed only with a limit of 2000 rubles. To the answer that we will not eat lemonade and sweets with tea for so much, the spinner standing next to us. Probably protects this one with brooms from the disgruntled arrogance of the aborigines who seized the historical place. He said that with our prices and 10 percent on tips, it's easy, even on lemonade with tea!
And for the justified desire to see a beautiful building, the aborigines take a fine of 6000 rubles. Moreover, in a very persistent form, in the Aboriginal language where our native Russian is heard.
A clean capture of an architectural monument.
At 22, I still managed to get around him without a fine.
I would like to write in the same style of non-translatable turns of speech. But the review will not be published.
But it is still necessary to come and see this restaurant, it is very beautiful.
Maybe the Abkhazians will come to their senses and expel the aborigines from this building, or teach them manners and bring down their arrogance.
We had dinner on June 24, 2024, the building certainly made an impression, the saxophone perfectly complemented the evening, but alas, the food did not surprise and did not like it, the tablecloths are absolutely not snow-white as historically they should be, the waiters are not majestic, the children run along the embankment and slam the doors to the veranda, launching flies (I have nothing against children no way) but.... Dinner... evening.... Music... alas, the atmosphere does not have, is not supported and is not created
The place is historical. The view from the balcony is really fascinating. But that's it... We had lunch at 23, it was delicious for my husband, they brought me pieces of dry chicken. Well, anyway, the lemonade was delicious and thanks for that. This year we are back in Abkhazia, we decided to go back to Gagripsh, it is very beautiful from there. But we were met by a haughty-looking waitress and told that the deposit was 1,500 per person. There were 3 of us and we were not particularly hungry, we wanted to have a snack, drink lemonade and go for a walk further. Spending 4,500 on lunch was not part of our plans. We left and 15 other people followed us. There are 2 tables in the hall. Questionable restrictions, given the level of cuisine (in the photo, meat for 650 rubles). Well, okay. It's your business.
Gagripsh!
Gagra's business card!
The history of the place, the beauty inscribed in the mountains, the view from the building - it is necessary to visit!!!!!
But, the restaurant, the service, the prices........ It's not worth it!
And the bathroom.... It's a stink, dirt, one non-lockable stall!!!
I give 5 stars - the place is like a historical monument at its best, and the commercial facilities inserted into it are terrible!

An interesting historical place with beautiful views and a delicious menu.
We celebrated a birthday there in the summer, in principle, we liked everything except the deafeningly loud amplifiers on stage.
The music was playing so loudly that it was difficult for the waiters to take an order, and it was difficult to hear each other at the same table.)) In principle, they were in no hurry to take an order, even when we personally approached the administrator so that our table would already be noticed!
But despite this, the atmosphere in the restaurant was quite pleasant. Beautiful interior, with crystal chandeliers, delicious menu. The dishes were cooked quickly enough, everything that was ordered was delicious, which greatly pleased and did not allow you to be disappointed due to the deafening decibels and unhurried order acceptance).
In the evenings, live music plays, beautiful voices, good performance, but it sounds excessively loud through amplifiers, despite the fact that the acoustics in the hall are already excellent)))
Pathetic) beautifully. You can come for a photo and for a "tick" that you visited the Prince of Oldenburg's restaurant. In the large hall, we recommend tables away from the stage, otherwise you will not be able to talk. Sound engineering is suffering) Dishes : ear and dessert of the Prince of Oldenburg . Lagging behind by "3-4". But the taste and color , as they say.
Definitely worth a visit to this restaurant) But I would say for once. I really liked the live music, the atmosphere and the flowers that were on every table and they were big bouquets of roses. I love roses! According to the menu, we were not very surprised. But everything is delicious.
The kitchen is great! Interesting interior! Every evening there is a program with live music!
There are shortcomings, but for Abkhazia, and Soviet memory can be forgiven))
I recommend you to visit!!!
A chic restaurant. The kitchen is very decent. There is even a wine that can only be tasted in this restaurant. Thanks to the waitress Ekaterina for the recommendations of the dishes. She told me everything and recommended it. Thank you. A gorgeous (but expensive) flounder, a very tasty ear. I would even say fish with broth. And medium beef steak is a delicate delicacy
The place is beautiful, I really liked it... but the food... nothing special, the price tag is a little too high for Abkhazia... we sat without alcohol for 8 t.p. (2 adults and two small children 2 and 8 years old), tips are included in the price. It's about the Gagripsh restaurant.
Friends, I rarely leave negative reviews, but here I can't pass by this "restaurant". I strongly recommend not to spoil your vacation and visit this place for a feast! Extremely mediocre cuisine at a huge cost! The service is extremely slow, the guys clearly do not meet the visitor halfway in the literal and figurative sense (they compare the time of choosing a dish from the menu with choosing an apartment to buy). The taste of the dishes and especially the freshness of the ingredients leaves much to be desired. In the photo, you can check out the quality of the wine label for 2.5k - in fact, it turned out to be not wine, but juice diluted with alcohol. Places like this spoil such a wonderful republic. It's a pity, I hope the owners will improve. Of the advantages, I will note the location of the institution and its appearance, the place sets up for a good end to the evening, unfortunately, the advantages end there.
