To say a cool restaurant is not to say anything!!! A very cozy, pleasant, aesthetic, tasty and friendly place! I recommend everyone to come to breakfast, order a big breakfast (I took a fish one) - it's unrealistically delicious! Baked cheesecakes are a separate work of art❤️The most friendly staff!)) People are generally a separate part of this institution!They will tell you everything delicious, advise you, in general, the staff has a separate respect!!! Thanks a lot to Igor for the help and compliments🙏🏻I recommend everyone to come here and it doesn't matter in the morning or in the evening, preferably in the morning and in the evening!!! Guys, thank you very much, next time in Minsk we will eat at your place!)
Beautiful interior, open kitchen, there is a summer house. We tried both appetizers and second courses, everything is top. Very tasty. I was pleased that the waiter knows the dishes perfectly and can tell you which sauce and how it reveals the taste in a particular case. That's a straight five, well done. I rarely see this, but it happens. Probably one of the best restaurants in Minsk, where I managed to visit. I strongly recommend you to visit.
It's a great place. The food is amazing. The unusual combination of flavors captivated us.
We tried both the breakfast and the evening
menu.
Everything was very tasty and memorable.
For me to note: shrimp ravioli, farm rabbit with gnocchi, beef tartare, trout tartare. Of the breakfasts: a large fish breakfast and a croissant with a farm rabbit. I really want to repeat these dishes again.
And thank you for the excellent service!
We celebrated a birthday here. We are very glad that we chose this place. Amazing cuisine and unusual dishes, the staff ❤️ - our waiter was just super, the service was fast, the atmosphere was cozy and unobtrusive music. This is the third time we have been here, and every time we are glad that we come here on important dates for us. Thank you for such a high level in everything.
A very small but very cozy restaurant, it seemed to us that it was designed for no more than 30 seats, so it is better to book tables in advance, which we did ourselves. The staff is entirely male, starting from the male hostesses, and ending with all the waiters and cooks in the kitchen. Most of all, we liked the food here, the menu is not large, so the chefs do not spray on cooking hundreds of different dishes, but focus on quality and beauty, doing it professionally. Each dish we ordered turned out to be a work of art, this applies to both hot and desserts. The food was not just beautifully placed on a plate, but its shape and presentation made some sense, for example, a dessert in the form of a lime that fell to the ground. And the most important thing is the amazing taste of food, which is created by a diverse combination of some non-standard sauces and seasonings. In general, I got a great taste and aesthetic pleasure from the cooked dishes here.
Justifiably expensive.
Location, interior, team work, kitchen - everything is top.
Not an overblown menu (which is rare nowadays) - emphasizes status and professionalism. Fusion cuisine, as I understand it.
Competent and cute ) waiters.
But. There are comments on the kitchen. I think with such a price tag they are appropriate)
We ordered a salad, two different pastas, lemonade, coffee, sea buckthorn tea.
1. Although the main course dishes were served at the same time (not all restaurants, especially in Minsk, adhere to this rule), it was clear that one of the pastes was cooked later and had time to cool down.
2. The coffee is terrible. I probably need to buy either a good coffee or a new coffee machine.
3. Sea buckthorn tea with spices and without honey is tough enough for both taste and stomach. Offering sugar to it is just a "grandmother's option". Just add honey and you will see how the guests will delightedly order this tea over and over again.
These minor flaws do not detract from the wonderful impression of the place. Stylish, fashionable, hospitable, delicious.
Thank you, we will definitely be back.
I really liked it, it was delicious, cozy, good service, not cheap, but it's worth it. Good coffee, they don't save on grain, which is very nice. Cheesecakes with blueberries and ice cream are good. If you walk around the center of Minsk on foot, it is ideal for lunch or brunch since they start working from 10.00. I recommend it!
Today, I finally tried the cuisine of this institution. I decided to have breakfast at the restaurant and the choice fell on a fish breakfast. I was afraid at first that the portion would be too big for me alone, but in the end, as it turned out in reality, there are few ingredients in the dish and just an excellent portion for brunch. Regarding tastes... it was good. The balance of all products is there, everything is fresh. I asked the waiter to fry the trout, as I am not a special fan of "raw" and went to meet him: the fish was not over-dried, although I personally did not have enough juiciness. In general, I advise you to visit the "Names". For a leisurely breakfast and contemplation of the city, which opens from the veranda. It's a bit noisy, though, because of the proximity of the roadway, but.. it's about personal preferences, as they say. I wanted a little more peace of mind ☺️
Thank all the responders-we decided on my birthday, being in Minsk for a couple of days, to go to this place and it's in the very heart) The excellent menu is quite concise, but it changes often. Kamchatka crab pasta is remembered fondly, as are all desserts and starters. After the restaurants of his native St. Petersburg, there are few expectations from new places in other cities-but not in this case! The interior, dishes, serving, service, cleanliness, quality of products-there is not the slightest reason for comments. Guys, thank you so much, I wish you every prosperity and eternal full landing, keep it up! I would like to return to Minsk at least to try everything with you)
The wedding day was celebrated in the "Names". We are very glad that we chose this place. Amazing cuisine and unusual dishes, the staff - our waiter was just super, the service was fast, the atmosphere was cozy and unobtrusive music. I was especially touched by the gift from the institution – a cake with a candle. Thanks to the staff for a wonderful evening.
We got there by accident, thanks to the heavy rain and the neighboring institution, where they could not put us down)
A small but very cozy place. We met, arranged, advised on the menu). They helped with the outerwear and left a stand for the bags. All these are small things, but very pleasant.
If you want more than just a fried potato pancake, then you are here. Quite original dishes. I liked everything from the order (shrimp salad, pate, steak salad, Ramen soup). I have very pleasant impressions, I will definitely come back 👍
Thank you so much for a wonderful evening! Everything was on top: the service, the food, the atmosphere! Beef tartare is just wow! Scallops, pasta, cocktails, everything is very tasty! I recommend it and I think we will come back more than once!
We celebrated the end of our vacation! A very pleasant place: delicious food, good wine, unobtrusive but intelligent service (the waiter talked about the composition of the dishes, poured wine on time,)
We were very satisfied!
At the same time, I would like to apologize once again for confusing the information with the booking time.
I recommend the restaurant!
We were visiting from Russia in Minsk for several days , on the last day we decided to have dinner in a good place. The choice fell on "Names". To say that my husband and I were delighted is to say nothing . The dishes are just a delight , the service is excellent. The waiters are very attentive, they tell you how and in what order to eat the dish. The prices are above average , but it 's not a pity for a ruble . We are closely connected with the restaurant business ourselves , so there is something to compare it with ) We wish prosperity to the institution and more cool guests. If we are in Minsk, we will definitely come back here.
Just a delight! We went to the Restaurant for breakfast and came out in a great mood)
I have never tasted such delicious cheesecakes anywhere, although I often visit restaurants. Incredibly tender with a crispy crust, with the purest blackcurrant mousse! I also really liked the rice porridge with tropical sauce. And in general, a very beautiful serving of dishes, polite waiters, beautiful interior. There are no words, only positive emotions) thank you!
IT'S VERY TASTY HERE. A combination of Italian and Asian cuisine. And the dishes are brought quickly enough, the portions are not small. The waiters are caring. However, one waiter (who looks like Thomas Shelby) took me out for a cocktail!
Nevertheless, this place is very tasty and pleasant to relax in.
We were not long ago with my wife in this place called Names. They celebrated the marital minimum, purely symbolic anniversary of 14 years of marriage. I tell you right away how it is, a great location, I ate and went for a walk wherever my eyes look, and there they look in all directions, sorry, well, you can't argue Minsk was built like this. The staff is excellent, they wave and smile, well, who might not like it, I do not know, they are polite, courteous and purr like Cheshire cats, well done. I personally liked the timing and aesthetics of the dishes, although my wife said so everywhere now, but since I was everywhere a year and a half ago, so there may not be a connection. Let's move on to the dishes. I ordered shrimp ravioli, trout tartare and coconut foam. Let me immediately rate this dish 44 points according to the 100-point system. And I hasten to tell you right away that my taste score is 44 points and I have an argument. In my subjective opinion, with all the things that freshly baked dough feels great, gorgeous tartare trout and plus the most wonderful serving to all this!!! But..... collectively, I repeat, according to my subjective taste, we get sweet dumplings (sorry, I didn't pick up anything for dumplings) The dish is strongly killed by the sweet foam and the crushed shrimp, which is also ground into one mass, and the worst thing is that tartar with all the flavor of this whirlwind also flies there. Although I gave my wife a taste of my raviolin (it was at the table there)) I didn't comment on my impression in any way, but she said, by the way, right away, well, it's kind of sweet and it's not clear what it looks like. In general, it tastes delicious, in fact, it does not reveal itself in this segment for me personally, but I do not pretend to be a Michelin star. I understand everything so the Chef sees it, which unfortunately I do not see, but I did not study this profession, so my words are rotten. And by the way, my wife was there too and not only tried what I gave her, but she also had to order something. And it was a dish. Pasta with king crab, baby zucchini and red caviar is 88 points, there is not a single question. It's all flavor paints and it's WOW!
To summarize. Place, top. The staff is top. Top service. Something has to be done with dumplings. But I'm joking, it's clear that the team is all well done!) Good luck to you)
Excellent service, friendly staff. Delicious breakfasts. I was on my birthday, they brought dessert with a candle, they congratulated me from the bottom of their hearts!
The interior for the photo is perfect!
I definitely recommend it!
The kitchen and staff are top notch! This is our favorite place now. I would like to attach a photo of the great dishes that we managed to taste, but everything was so delicious that we ate it with lightning speed 😂 the coffee is also excellent 👌🏻 we wish everyone a pleasant appetite and good mood!
There were Names at the restaurant. It is convenient that in the city center, very beautiful design and a comfortable terrace. We ordered Scallops - a beautiful dish, but the taste is specific, try it once. I really liked the salad with steak and eggplant 👍The alcoholic cocktail 🍸 seemed not alcoholic at all))
We were only at breakfast, but we really liked everything.
A restaurant with author's cuisine, you will not find pancakes or other dishes of national cuisine here, but you will definitely get high service, stylish interior, beautiful presentation, interesting dishes, pleasant atmosphere and a good location!
It's very cozy..the atmosphere is conducive to communication...the music is not intrusive or loud..We tried desserts with a very original presentation and cooking taste , respectively... Especially the pumpkin pie
A very bright, intimate and stylish place in Minsk, where it is not only instagrammatically beautiful, but also stunningly delicious!
We went to have breakfast with my husband, we were met by a very friendly receptionist, took jackets and led into the hall. Then the waiter helped to sort out the dishes, noted the details, suggested what was more satisfying and what was easier. As a result, my husband ordered a sandwich with flank steak, and I ordered salmon tartare, avocado, tomatoes and poached egg on brioche. The serving of dishes is very fast, everything is delicious, we slowly enjoyed breakfast. But finally our hearts were taken away by cheesecakes with blueberry mousse and ice cream, they are perfect! Crisp on the outside, and tender flesh on the inside. Super cool combination of flavors of cheesecake, blueberries, vanilla ice cream with a slight salty taste.
I recommend Names, a gorgeous place that we will definitely return to again :)
A nice cozy restaurant, places need to be booked, although the proposed place on the windowsill caused surprise. Cuisine with a claim to the author's, delicious, but the choice of ingredients is not always clear, in any case, quite decent dishes
A wonderful menu and a very sincere waiter! An interesting presentation and a detailed description of the composition of the dishes. You need to book a table in advance, but the restaurant is worth it. I liked Bellini's mango cocktail. Thank you for the taste delight.
I recommend visiting this restaurant. The level of service, the quality of food, and the location in the vicinity of the central part of Minsk are all at a high level. The staff is very competent. The food is excellent.
One of the top restaurants we visited!
I'll start right away with the pros:
- Beautiful atmospheric surroundings: this is the perfect place for lovers! The harmony of colors, unobtrusive placement of seats, a pleasant playlist on the background — all these are common things, but here the cherry on the cake is the space itself: places for two on window sills with a small square create a homey feeling and the very feeling when you don't want to leave here:)
The quality of food is at the level: for 130 rubles, you can afford an excellent dinner, the only wish is to add more items to the hot menu.
A cozy place, chosen for a long-awaited meeting with a friend. We settled on the terrace, the staff is attentive, but not intrusive. The menu is not to say that it is rich in choice, but for such outings it is the best👍
I was passing through Minsk and I know that the service here is weak, unlike in Russia, but not in this restaurant. The service is amazing, the waiter Andrey perfectly navigates the menu and gives the necessary information, up to where the products are brought from (which is quite important). Pasta with seafood is perfect - "Al dente" was found only in this place. The author's tincture is something incredible. Excellent care products and the restaurant itself is very clean. A very stylish interior inside and a beautiful view terrace of the city. The place is perfect. Keep it up !
Very tasty dishes. Excellent waiter. One minus or plus is a small hall. The wine is delicious.
The children won T-shirts from a nearby clothing boutique while ordering desserts. Imho one of their best places in Minsk.
I never thought that in Minsk it could be delicious and beautiful, I liked absolutely everything, the staff of the hall were just handsome, it was easy to choose dishes with them and laugh on different topics, they cook very quickly and efficiently, cocktails are above all praise! We will definitely come back.
Любимое заведение в Минске!
Расположение - лучше не придумаешь. В самом центре города. Атмосфера очень камерная, интерьер приятный. В летнее время прекрасная уютная терраса.
Невероятная кухня, я не могу словами передать как это вкусно. Что похвально - ребята не стоят на месте, регулярно обновляют меню, дорабатывают блюда , что то меняют.
Ресторан легко составит конкуренцию звездным ресторанам Москвы и топовым ресторанам СПб по кухне. Да и многим европейским фору даст. Цены адекватные за тот уровень блюд, которые есть в расторане, не завышенные. Подача каждого блюда радует глаз. Всегда очень красиво, но главное - нереально вкусно! За последний год бываем там часто, раз в месяц минимум. Не было ни одного блюда , которое бы разочаровало или не понравилось. Особенно хочется отметить мою любимую утку на основное и тартар из форели на закуску.
Про сервис упомяну отдельно. Управляющий , официанты - просто топ. Редко встретишь такой подход к гостям. Всё на высшем уровне, подход всегда особенный, про этом непринужденный. Когда звонили заказывать столик второй раз, уже обратились по имени.
Вся команда - и повара и официанты - видно что очень любят это место и своих гостей.
Спасибо за то, что вы делаете <3
The restaurant is very cozy and beautiful. Delicious dishes and desserts. I was celebrating my birthday and I didn't make a mistake with the place! Very nice staff, I will definitely come again!
We were with friends in this institution on the terrace in hot weather
The friends wanted ice cream, they offered Pavlov's dessert with ice cream. According to the girls, it was very tasty.
But with a request to bring water, they offered a bottle of water from Italy for 16 rubles
When asked to bring water from under the filter, they replied that there was no such thing
It is strange not to serve guests a glass of water on the terrace for free in hot weather
Expensive water as the only way to quench your thirst - it looks very unpleasant towards the guests of the institution, even if they just came to eat dessert
I'm waiting for the moment when the establishments will bring water for free by default
Yesterday we were with a friend at this institution. Excellent location, beautiful interior, delicious dishes, polite staff, BUT I have never wanted to leave so quickly and have to interrupt my enjoyment in the evening because of the apparently guests of the institution and the condescending attitude of the staff to their questionable behavior. I would like to comment on whether it is normal that in a public place, in front of others, some restaurant visitors throw their legs over their partners, touch other visitors during the imposing passage, behave very provocatively, and the most interesting thing is that the staff did not react at all. If this is a constant practice in this place, which is called a restaurant, then everything is very doubtful. My friend and I, as well as the table next to us, did not understand this situation.
On August 27, 2024, I decided to give my sister a holiday for the day. We went to a restaurant,,Names,,had a lot of fun,a belly feast,service at the highest level,the place is very cozy,they accepted us as relatives, fed us, the dishes are all with a twist,buzz,I wish you prosperity and keep it that way,thank you very much!!!
Well, everything is sooooo delicious. The receptionist girl warmly welcomed and accommodated us, the waiter guy was generally on fire. Not intrusive and with style. Respect to the guys cooks!
Честно я влюблена и в Минск и в «Имена»… теперь я знаю лучший рецепт лучшего отпуска: найти классное место с прекрасным видом…., с душевными людьми (персоналом)…. и с потрясающей кухней .
Остановились с мужем в мини-отеле в центре и рядом сразу нашлось именно такое место ❤️🙏
Каждое утро я начинала там , с красивейших и вкусных завтраков и с приятного общения 🫶 на веранде . Вообщем стиль во всем🙌🏻
В последний день не удержалась - зашла внутрь к парням на кухню - всех поблагодарила за такой чудесный подарок ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Люблю вас!!! Успехов! Новых идей и реализаций! До новых встреч✨
Great restaurant! I am glad that there are such places in Minsk! Kitchen - 5 out of 5))
I recommend trying trout)) we even went back to the next one just for this dish. The waiters are all friendly and courteous. Denis, thank you very much for the recommendations on the menu.
Very tasty, balanced and original dishes. We ordered a big fish breakfast, scramble with eggplant and cheesecakes. The portions are large, the prices are adequate, the staff is amazing. The hostess and the waiter are very good-natured and positive. ❤️❤️❤️
I liked everything: the atmosphere (pleasant quiet music), the service (the waiter was attentive, told about the dishes), and the food (delicious and aesthetically pleasing).
It is very tasty, the place is good for any time of the year, the waiters are always helpful and very friendly. The menu is pleasant, there is always something to choose from
It's chic, sparkle, beauty. Guys, I highly recommend it. There is a combination of everything that should be in a restaurant in order to come back here again. There is love in everything here … From each employee.. and it's impossible not to feel it. Love, care, delicious food ... well, you still need, perhaps this is the maximum set in order to say that this is the best place. I thank the whole team for allowing you to enjoy your wonderful place. Prosperity to you. Igor, special thanks to you for your sincere love for your business. P.S cheesecakes, be sure to try
I was very upset after the visit. The interior is excellent, the service is excellent, high-quality alcohol, good location.
What didn't you like?
A meager menu, without its own feature, like the others. Very noisy companies at the neighboring tables.
Will I come back here again?
Yes, if your friends call you very much, but I will not initiate the trip here again.
The food and service are at a very high level. Perhaps one of the most delicious places I've ever been) The menu is not too overblown, but each dish is like a work of art - both from the serving side and from the wusa side)
The place is pleasant, the waiters work well, but the dishes, in my opinion, are too creative and controversial in taste. Overall, I liked it. I recommend it to anyone who is looking for new experiences.
One of the best restaurants in Minsk. Very tasty dishes and a beautiful presentation. On this visit, as usual, we took a "live" pasta and were not disappointed. We usually leave this restaurant with a slight feeling of satiety and a pleasant after-taste of food.
One of my favorite places. Everything is always very tasty. And the staff is very polite.
And there have never been any problems with the supply of filtered water, as the girl wrote below.
It is very tasty and beautiful. If the salmon tartare is fabulous. Rabbit with potato gnocchi is a little greasy. Ravioli with cheeks is very gentle and difficult, in a good way. I recommend everything.
