I really liked the cafe. The choice was random, attracted by the open veranda. The child was ordered a pizza and was pleasantly surprised, it was very tasty. We took salads for ourselves (Greek and Abkhaz), very tasty and hearty, I didn't want anything else. We liked this cafe so much that we returned to it again. We have already tried meat dishes. The wait is no more than 20 minutes and the first and second time, although the wait was announced for 30 minutes. Special thanks to the waitress Marina, a very pleasant and attentive girl. I also liked the live music, the repertoire is great. I recommend this cafe.
2024 August. We went, sat for 5,000, and went hungry. I'm sorry, but it's not delicious. There is no lighting, it is dark, the music is very loud, which makes it difficult to communicate. The waitress is very polite. I won't go a second time and I won't advise anyone.
We are vacationing in Gagra in July 2023, traveling with tents and staying near this cafe. We have visited it many times and we can say that it is a wonderful, cozy place. We were served by friendly, efficient, attentive waitresses Nastya and Keta, the rest of the staff are also responsive and always ready to help. It is valuable that the cafe is located on the first line, with a magnificent view of the mountains and the sea from the veranda. The dishes here are superbly delicious, exquisitely served. We especially liked the breakfasts (shakshuka, hot sandwich with ham and egg, scrambled eggs with vegetables), drinks (dairy, alcoholic and non-alcoholic cocktails), pizza on a delicate dough with lots of fresh flavorful fillings (hunting, salami and seafood). Mussels in cream and mussels in tomato sauce, vegetable salad, the freshest, piece by piece, are also extremely exquisite. We haven't tried a lot yet, we hope that we will still have time to appreciate other dishes of this wonderful cafe. As it is well said in a wise book: "I realized that there is nothing better for a person than to rejoice and do good in life, and that a person should eat and drink and enjoy his work. It is a gift from God (Ecclesiastes 3:12,13, the Bible).
(P.S. I would like to separately mention the charming voice of the singer Muslim, who delighted our ears for many evenings).
Having visited this institution, we were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the dishes.
We finally had a delicious meal! For the first time this vacation!
We took Caesar salad with shrimps, Ark salad, mussels in white sauce and meat in Abkhazian style
Everything was very tasty!
The portions are huge, you could just eat a salad
I liked the Ark salad the most, juicy, fresh greens, a lot of seafood, delicious dressing
Beautiful sunset
Pleasant, friendly staff
I highly recommend this place
We went to the Neo cafe in Gagra and got great pleasure from the dishes and staff service. We were last year, this is the earth and the sky. Compared to last year, this is progress. Apparently, the staff at Neo's cafe has changed. The food is very tasty. The cocktails are awesome. Mussels in creamy sauce are divine. And stuffed squid and eggplant, just a bomb. My friends took the rolls, they were also satisfied. The musician is mesmerizing with his voice. The dishes are beautiful, it's a pleasure to eat and drink.
We didn't like the cafe. The seating is terrible, at first we sat on the sofas, you can barely reach the table, then we moved to the chairs, it got better. I expected a beautiful view of the sea, but it is simply not visible because of the high partitions. In terms of food, it's not brilliant either. I ordered meat with walnuts, as a result, they brought me meat in a pot with cheese, and yes, there was a walnut somewhere in the middle. The wok vegetables are not made correctly, they were overexposed, there is also no balance of sweet / spicy / sour, the only noodles are more or less normal. The usual grub. The only positive thing was the waiter's service.
Good cuisine. I especially want to highlight the local singer Muslim, the voice is super, and the repertoire is on top. I was very glad to visit this place. Thanks to the cook and Muslim very much, respect and respect 😍
I do not recommend it!!! Disgusting place, get ready to wait from 30 minutes for coffee and milkshake and up to 60 minutes - hot 🤦♀️ it feels like 1 person is cooking everything in the kitchen, boarding in the evening- the staff can't cope, from the word "at all"! The sofas are uncomfortable, the tables are high, we only went in to listen to live music, this is the only plus, thanks to this artist !!!
How to cook pizza, they basically don't know about tomato paste, no one has heard of cheap smoked sausage and salted cheese 🤮 milkshake, it is made without ice cream 🤦♀️
Think before you come here, do you want to waste time, mood and money!
Definitely 5 stars, delicious barbecue and trout...the waiting time was no more than 20-30 minutes. The waitress is very nice and sociable, thanks separately to her. I also want to note the beautiful view of the sea from the veranda of the cafe..
Positive : not high prices, good food, great singer.
Cons: we ordered food and only after 40 minutes brought a bottle of wine, although the workload of the hall was small. After 50 minutes, the first course was brought, there is a strong shortage of staff. There was no salt and pepper on the tables by the sea. The owner saves on staff, there are not enough cooks and waiters, a mess
One of the advantages is the sea view, the guy sings pleasantly. Cons: the music is screaming a lot (you can't hear not only each other, but also the waiter (they also ask again several times)); THERE is NOWHERE to wash your hands!! They send you to a public toilet - and it's closed! Sofas are below the tables. The menu has a meager assortment. I do not recommend it (unless the owners listen to the reviews and take drastic measures)!
We wanted to spend a good evening at another place in Gagra. We tried to choose a new place for ourselves every evening and I will say that this is the only one that we did not like. The choice was made because of the terrace overlooking the sea.
A very long wait, despite landing at 20/30%. They brought potatoes, but forgot the sauce. After being reminded about the sauce, they said they would bring it now. In parallel, redoing a bunch of other things. As a result, the potatoes cooled down. And the sauce is disgusting bittersweet. It's like the cheapest ketchup. Coffee was also brought at the very end, when we had already eaten everything. No sugar. We were surprised that we need sugar for coffee with syrup))) Sugar was brought at the request. Without a spoon)) They interfered with a knife. There were no candles, not even napkins. The 320p pina Colada cocktail is just milk, water, syrup and ice. It tastes like milk and water))) No jewelry, just milk and ice.
The price and quality are not comparable. I am ready to pay such a price and even more for really delicious dishes. Here I was glad that they did not order a lot, but tried and made sure that it was not worth it.
Unfortunately, after visiting such places, they say that Abkhazia is "hello 90s/00s"
I don't recommend it
The cafe is beyond praise!(there is something to compare it with)The kitchen is very good, great live music, very helpful and friendly staff.I highly recommend it!
In Gagra, they lived in a boarding house and food was provided in it, but on the last day on 10/28/12, they decided to go and try the local food anyway. And what is it! ? All illusions about the hospitality and cuisine of Abkhazia (outside the boarding house) They never showed up to us. This canteen is worthy of standing somewhere in the steppe meadows for hungry travelers, but not in the center of a tourist town by the sea! The ears are full. Starting from the waiter girls and ending with the cook (or who is he? )The dishes in the kitchen. He belongs there! The food is disgusting. The lamb kebab was over-dried and burnt. By the way, 1,670 rubles were given for it (550 rubles) and also lavash, khinkali and noodles soup. The game is full.. I mean the cost of this "grocery " set. In addition, there are "cute" tearfully special features of this cafe. For example, the toilet, as others have already written, is located in another place and you need to ask the "aunt conductor" there. And when it got dark outside, we asked to turn on the lighting in the hall to look at the food on the table. But.. the waiters explained that there was no one. A little later, a clever guy appeared who climbed onto chairs and "screwed" the existing light bulbs in the basement around the perimeter of the "Stolovsky hangar". Such an amazing place! Never enter it! Never try any dishes there. Positive reviews, which are rarely found about NEO, are rather written by severely flawed villagers (judging by the words: Sympathetic, I accept krty ...)
And an open veranda overlooking the sea should not deceive you. I assure you, she is also pathetically clumsy.!
It's a terrible place. The only advantage is the sea view. The food was waited for a long time. The hostess, when asked why 30% of the food was carried for so long when boarding, began to resent that we were scandalous, although we asked politely. As a result, the food is tasteless, not worth the money. Yes, and the hostess is unpleasant. I highly do not recommend this place - do not spoil your nerves and evening!
Temper the okroshka and seafood soup. Seafood - the soup is too salty, and after the okroshka after 4 hours (I didn't eat anything else) - vomiting, fever.
The waiter is a good young guy, the service is also good. The toilet is downstairs, under the key - it's inconvenient. The obvious disadvantages outweigh it.
We came and saw that the waitress was cleaning the table, throwing the steers from the ashtray into the breadbasket! When asked if this was normal, she replied that she hadn't noticed and that she would bother to wash up all the time. Keep clean people who don't eat pigs!
I didn't like it at all. The food is tasteless, we waited a long time, the atmosphere is like from the 90s. I was led by the positive feedback, I think now that they are most likely paid for. One of the advantages is the sea view and a nice waitress. But there are plenty of restaurants with a view in Gagra.
They ordered 400g of shish kebab - brought 300 grams of raw meat, asked to fry it - brought even less a portion of still raw meat. Prices are more expensive than in neighboring places. Change the kebab maker!
Great sea view) delicious hookah) prices are adequate) thanks for the music) the service is certainly not for 5+, a long wait until the waiter comes up. And the story of the toilet - you need to ask for the keys, it's still not convenient, I would like to improve this moment, the institution is good, but such difficulties with the toilet.
One star for the sea view.
We went twice. For the first time, the kitchen was a C grade. Very fatty carbonara paste, not finished. Pancakes with cottage cheese, instead of cottage cheese, some kind of incomprehensible mass. I liked the pizza and lemonade.
We came for breakfast the second time. The service was very long, the waitresses were sitting and talking, they called 2 times - zero attention, we had to come ourselves. We took a Greek breakfast and a ham and cheese sandwich. It seemed to taste more or less, only the ham was very thickly sliced. The most fun began in the late afternoon. We do not leave the toilet... we conclude that we have been poisoned. Apart from breakfast, we haven't eaten anything all day. We won't come here anymore.
We were a little late to refresh ourselves.. They didn't even let us finish what we ordered properly, they turned off the light, saying go ***... So much for Abkhazian hospitality...
I gave 2 stars only for the view from the veranda. The staff here doesn't care at all: I took the menu myself, to make an order I went to the waiter myself, before that, of course, I waited 20 minutes, but no one came to me. We ordered baklava with walnuts here and were very sorry, it was dry, as if it had been in the kitchen for a week, we even tried to refuse it, because it is impossible to eat.
We had a rest in September 2021. Excellent cuisine, the most delicious mussels. Amazing view on the outdoor terrace. They make delicious lemonade. Friendly waitresses, responsive to the requests of visitors. They went to this cafe for dinner most often. Thanks for the delicious food.
Muslim sings great!This is one positive quality!The food is not very good, the service is not any!We had to go find a waiter ourselves to pay!The horror!
We decided to end a wonderful evening with a view of the sea in this institution.
We ordered Caesar salad (the first portion was with a hard breast, they asked to replace it),(the second time they brought it with rotten chicken, even the waiter confirmed it after sniffing).
In the future, they immediately abandoned the chicken cradle and chicken soup, they were afraid that it would also be rotten.
I want to say right away - I compare this restaurant with the "average Moscow" (prices are comparable).
This is the first restaurant we visited in Gagra.
I didn't like it at all, the service was at the lowest level, there weren't many people, but we waited for the waiter for 10 minutes. I asked them to bring lemonade right away... after 10 minutes, lemonade, dessert and cappuccino were brought, and they were not at all embarrassed that suluguni and carbonate were ordered. By the way, it was terrible, overcooked spicy pasta.
We were very hungry, and therefore did not become indignant and look for another restaurant, but we gave almost 2k for dinner for two.
I really hope that other restaurants will be better.
Pretty decent delicious food, the service is not the fastest, but compared to other places it will go. The veranda has a beautiful view of the sea, but in the evenings there is very loud, unpleasant music, killing the whole atmosphere
Nice view, good music, but not much food. We had a dish over-salted

Great cafe. The prices are pleasant, in principle, as in all cafes in Gagra. I am attaching a photo of the menu.
Very cool tables on the veranda, with a beautiful view of the sea. In the evenings, music plays and you can dance at the disco.
Full of slag.The draught beer is sour, the sauce for fried potatoes is sour, the potatoes themselves are reprocessed with oil, the Caucasian hodgepodge was brought cold after 40 minutes. It cost all 4 tr, 1.5 tr trout., tips included. People don't go to them!
IT'S A DISGUSTING CAFE. We came because of the sea view, ordered 2 lagman soups, they brought us some kind of porridge, which stinks it is not clear what and it is not possible to eat. Olivier salad is also not as delicious as the old spoiled one was. They gave 3k for the view!
Hello everyone / the best restaurant in Gagra on the embankment and the cuisine and the atmosphere / you can sit quietly / and chat + live
music in the evening
My friends had their phone stolen in this restaurant on 05.05 there was no one in the hall except the waiters. They caught on almost as soon as they came out. They returned, but no one saw anything. The owner did not show interest in the situation and help, although the waiters informed him about the loss.
Located right on the coast, there is a beautiful view. But flying midges and ants spoil all the dishes and the arrival at the cafe. Waitresses often pass by and had to wait a long time with their hand raised, there is more shouting here, so they understand faster that they need to come up. There aren't many people even on the weekend.
It's not a bad place. Veranda with sea view. The kitchen is monotonous, there is not much choice. The service is for 3 people - they do not smile and do not offer anything. The feeling that you are not welcome and waiting for you to leave. But there is a problem with the service in Abkhazia in general. It's the same everywhere, in the store and on the bus. Strange. This is their income, after all.
The view is very beautiful. The waiters are polite. Cappuccino, chop, shish kebab are delicious. Grilled salmon is wonderful. Caesar (a solid salad with mayonnaise, cold and stale chicken), pancakes, esa, homemade wine (very strange taste), French meat and khachapuri should not be taken, we did not like it. Plus, I always had to wait a long time.
+ gorgeous sea view
+ quick serving of dishes
+ the waiters are kind, but, as it turned out, they are cunning
- everything is tasteless: caesar salad, khinkali, mojito, mussels (we ordered shrimp in general, but they brought mussels), noodle soup. They just didn't eat anything, they just tasted it, it was so tasteless.
- the waiter gave less change than she should have (tips, by the way, are already included in the bill)
I strongly do not recommend this place
What a place! Shish kebab is disgusting, and it is expensive. Pizza on a thick dough. Yes, they also brought sour beer. And the prices on the menu and in the end are different! I don't recommend it.
we ate here with the whole family) grilled semki is generally super, khachipuri is tastier than anywhere else, we tried everything for breakfast except porridge and scrambled eggs - I liked it) I never had a stomach ache 😀

Greetings to all from Barnaul! One of the best establishments that you managed to visit in 5 days of your stay in Gagra! The dishes that were ordered: kharcho with nuts with mutton, meat in Abkhazian, lamb kebab, khachapuri big, khachapuri boat, these dishes can definitely be recommended from my side! Despite the fact that he is very picky about everything that even his wife cooks) The service is fast and always with a smile on his face! There is still a week ahead, if something changes, we will add🥳
