++: Very cheap and delicious (both hot and desserts, excellent tinctures, horseradish class!), in the center of Minsk, a lot of space (two floors, a terrace and a huge tent in the courtyard).
--: They carry orders for a long time, average service, there was a lot missing from the menu.
In general, if you are ready to wait and what you want is on the menu, it will be very cheap relative to Minsk and quite tasty.
A very atmospheric and cozy cafe. Despite the fact that it is located in the very center, there are free places even on a weekend evening, which was very pleasant. If you want to retire and enjoy the evening, come here. It was my first time here, so I can't describe all the delights of the kitchen. Orders are executed quickly, and I liked the dishes that I tried. Very tasty honey cake. Very! Many thanks to Karina (the waiter) for serving our table, a very attentive and conscientious girl!
Traveling around Belarus, we got acquainted with this institution for the first time in Grodno and fell in love. Mom Odessa hit me in the heart with her borscht. This is a real Ukrainian borscht, as my grandmother cooked, as I cook... Everything else was just as delicious. Good deals at business lunches. Very pleasant atmosphere, funny inscriptions in the style of Odessa humor. They serve us quickly enough (maybe we were just lucky, we were sitting next to the kitchen)). The staff is very friendly and efficient. But still, the main advantage is the kitchen. They know how to cook in mama Odessa👍
An atmospheric institution in the center of the city, being in a picturesque place is a rarity for a car to travel, and there are paving stones under your feet, a small reflection of Europe. Cafe on 2 floors, young friendly staff, delicious food, interesting service!!! Alcoholic shots went with a bang!
We were walking by and went in for dinner. We immediately appreciated the design solution of the 2nd floor - marine themes: fishing nets, lifebuoys, rope, etc. – 10 points for the designer. We managed to maintain the status of a secular institution in the presence of bright accent points.
Service: polite, friendly staff. Yes, you need to wait a little for the hot stuff, but it's worth it. Pike cutlets with mashed potatoes melt in your mouth, squid with vegetables is tender. I liked the branded tinctures, soft and natural. Sambusaki with pear and apple is an unusual delicious dessert with ice cream.
In general, we were satisfied. Thanks to all the staff.
Great place! Thanks to the staff for the recommendations in the selection of dishes and drinks. The fish menu was very pleasant - the portions are large, we did not even expect. Smelt ❤️ were visiting Minsk, chose to visit this place and did not lose. Good quality for a great price.
The Odessa-Mama cafe left me with mixed impressions. The food here is quite ordinary, without frills and culinary finds, but it is suitable for those who just want to have a snack. Unfortunately, the service leaves much to be desired. The staff is not very attentive: empty plates remain on the table for a long time, waiters pass by without reacting to attempts to attract their attention.
The location of the cafe in the city center can be attributed to its advantages, however, the choice of cocktails is extremely limited – only aperol and gin and tonic are presented. The menu also evokes mixed feelings and does not inspire a repeat visit. I probably won't be going back to Odessa-Mama anymore.
We liked everything :)
Many thanks to Alexey for the recommendations! Delicious!
We had a nice time in the hall on the second floor, and the next day on the balcony. The waiting time for the dishes flew by unnoticed, and we were in no hurry. We wish further prosperity to the institution!
It's a very atmospheric place and a cool location, especially the tables on the balcony.
We were in the afternoon, but I think in the evening when the lanterns light up it becomes even more atmospheric.
It was very tasty. I especially want to mention the flounder, which is simply amazing, and the tinctures.
The staff is very pleasant.
Great restaurant! Very tasty food! Beautiful serve! I really liked the tincture of limoncello! Pleasant atmosphere and helpful staff! I advise you to visit this restaurant! 👍🏻
Very tasty, as always) Fast service, reasonable prices, courteous staff, there are two floors, a terrace in summer. On Sunday at lunch, you can always find a place
A great place to eat and relax in the city center. Pleasant interior, friendly staff. The food is very tasty and the portions are large. The prices are affordable.
After opening, this institution (like the rest of the restaurants of this chain in Minsk) maintained a fairly high level of quality. But, unfortunately, everything went wrong. The service is not impressive at all (for a long time, drearily, without enthusiasm), some main dishes and drinks may not be available (and this is on a day off), something frankly not fresh or absolutely tasteless.
It's a pity, because the concept is definitely great.
I really liked the place! Friendly staff, put on the balcony, quickly brought drinks, hot when ready! Huge portions and most importantly, everything is very very tasty! I'll come again!
It's creepy. A year ago it was delicious and the service was excellent. I came in here with a friend on a weekday. 19 hours. There aren't many people. 2/3 of the menu is not available, including any tea and cold drinks. (Drink a Coke). They carried the menu for 15 minutes. It took a very long time to cook. (The hall is half empty). We couldn't find anyone to bring the bill. The service is disgusting. What we were able to order "and this? Not either? And this?" It turned out to be delicious. There are no questions here. But I won't go anymore. The impression is ruined
Overall, a great place with delicious cuisine, fast service and friendly staff. But, occasionally, you can get into jambs in the kitchen (mainly in terms of waiting) and then trouble…
Tinctures, the guys prepare them themselves. The food is delicious, the portions are large, the menu is not overblown, but the choice is good. We had dinner one evening and returned the next evening)) Thanks a lot to the chefs and staff 😊
The next time we come to Minsk, we will definitely come back.
In general, everything is not bad. There was a long wait for both the waiter and the food, although the boarding was not complete at all (we had lunch there, did not have dinner). The waiters are all kind of sad and sad. We had a conflict situation with a guest.. Unpleasant. The food is average. We won't go a second time, we were just nearby, they told us that it was delicious there. But we didn't particularly like it. Food for four. Hospitality for two points.
The table was booked and set in advance (light snacks) celebrating a friend's birthday. The spread tastes strange, it does not go well with the rubbery tortillas, which are not chewed. The wine is homemade, it feels diluted with water. Lemonade is over after 1 decanter (I don't understand why then it should be offered, why not add it to the stoplist immediately) We waited for more than 40 minutes for the hot meal, although the boarding at the cafe was not complete (4 tables with us). Trout with mashed peas and flounder are disgusting. ONE small potato goes to the big flounder. The fish is over-dried in two dishes. We still need to work on the pitch. Yes, the portions are large, but what's the point when it's not tasty!
The staff is also not wow! The receptionist only greeted me warmly and said goodbye! That's it! The table was served by whoever wanted, there are no waiters, one takes the order, brings another - you can't get the truth. Drinking water was carried for 20 minutes. Dirty dishes are taken away and not replaced with clean ones, it turns out that you are without appliances and dishes at the table. The music was mournful, they asked to switch to something else - they refused. The interior is interesting, but the work of the staff and the kitchen is not well established.
We came a little late, after football. After reading the reviews, we wanted to get there, we were greeted warmly, we were put on the flight, we didn't manage to try everything, we took a forshmak and a plate of seafood and fish, I liked the forshmak, my husband didn't like it very much, and the sea plate was great, especially the lamb, only in Minsk, in this restaurant, I understood why they love it so much. Thanks a lot
The worst restaurant in the chain! We waited an hour for our order until they reminded us and brought it, as if they had simply forgotten about us. The ravioli was bland, like all the food. I expected to see the chicken inside the dough, but not in separate pieces. Chebureks are also terrible, they taste like warmed-up purchased ones. The smelt had a terrible taste, completely different from what you would expect from a cafe in the city center. We ate our order only because it was a pity for the time spent. The toilet also deserves attention: it's all dirty, the area by the mirror is covered in dust, the toilet is leaking. Why it was impossible to solve this problem during the tourist season is not clear. I do not advise you to come here, especially if you want to try popular dishes.
I really like to have lunch here. Cozy room, delicious food. I would also like to note the work of waitress Tatiana, such an attentive attitude to the client is not found everywhere
One of our favorite restaurants in Minsk. A very varied and delicious menu, a lot of drinks, including branded tinctures. Great waiters, all kinds of buns from the kitchen. Very emotional.
Very long service!We ordered 2 dishes, waited for about an hour, despite the fact that 3 more tables were occupied in the institution besides us!!!The dishes taste like nothing!This has nothing to do with the Odessa import!When paying, the connection was lost, I had to wait more…And all the while, very loud music was playing with a repeating playlist…
My rating is 2/5
2 just for the location and affordable prices
I have been to this place with the company twice, pre-order was made twice and twice they forgot to bring my order under the pretext that it was not in the pre-order. This is just ridiculous, there is no need to comment here. 🙃
It seemed strange that empty glasses were placed on the table, and a carafe of water was not served for free.
If the kitchen is quite good, then I am outraged by the service, and this is the main indicator of a good place for me. That's why I'm definitely not coming back here anymore.
I do not recommend this place👎🏻
The lunch menu is very bad. There was almost nothing from the dishes that they tried to order, there was nothing to serve, the portions were small, the food tasteless. The main menu pleases with a large selection of fish dishes, but you will not try them, because there is almost nothing. In general, on Mondays it is an extremely dubious choice, but for the interior two stars, it is done pleasantly.
We were at a cafe today. We ordered pasta with scallops. I only ate worse pasta in Egypt, where pasta was like raw dough. There are no questions about scallops, but the dish itself does not cost 22 rubles in any way. There is no sauce, just cheap pasta, a couple of tomatoes and scallops. All. Everything in the picture is aesthetically pleasing and delicious, in reality it is worse than in the cheapest dining room.
We were at the cafe of this line in Dana Mall, so we went to Odessa-mama closer to home. The menu is great, the prices are normal, but the waiting time for the order, with an incomplete loading of the hall... It seems that we went to the Far East for fish. If you have a lot of time, then come in, you will not regret it. If you want to invest in an hour, then look for another place.
Yesterday (May 1) we booked a table on the veranda. When they arrived, the hostess, instead of solving the problem, replied dismissively, "actually, we do not book tables on the veranda." To which we replied that we had definitely booked. When the girl came up to the counter and I showed her "here, 16:00 is our reservation", she rudely replied "yes, girl, I actually see", again with disdain. She also suggested that we wait "until someone leaves." With such communication and a sense of tact, this girl should be fired right on the same day. The impression of relaxation and wonderful local establishments was spoiled.
A very good restaurant. My wife and I came to Minsk and really wanted to try delicious food. We came here and did not lose. We ordered 2 lunches for ourselves and couldn't handle such large portions. They took it with them. The soups are insanely delicious, the salads are very fresh and simply delicious, and the hot dishes are just a song. We liked it so much that we even forgot to take a photo of the food BEFORE, so take my word for it - this is a great place
I read reviews and don't understand why this is so. The first thing I didn't like was that the prices of the internal menu and the website did not match. It was served for a very long time. More than an hour. Well, the strangest thing is, these are small portions. Three spoons spread on a large plate . It's even funny. Compared to them, Cornflowers rule. As it is, the situation is average. Tea, coffee, beer, you can sit.
A friendly place. Looking at the name, you expect a noisier and more dynamic space inside. In fact, everything is leisurely, the interior is restrained, the kitchen is pleasant. I went to try the tinctures - I won't say anything bad about them, but they didn't cause delight either. But the fat is very good for them))
I have been looking at this network for a long time, but I got into their restaurant / cafe today for the first time. Rather, there was an attempt to get into another restaurant of the franchise, but we were warned about delays in service, and we left. But today the flounder in Odessa Mom on the International exceeded all expectations. Forshmak wasn't bad either. The service is quite normal, especially for positioning as a cafe. Surprisingly, this quite decent institution closes at 18:00.
A wonderful place, very tasty food, excellent service and a pleasant interior, and the prices are surprisingly low for such a location and in general for all of the above, I sincerely recommend from the bottom of my heart 💚
Convenient location, reasonable prices. There is also an excellent menu and service. Waiter Alexey, the best 👍🏼 thank you very much for your concern, the girl was delighted. I liked everything very much :)
I recommend it!
In general, the place is not very interesting. Service for 3. The staff is not attentive, the bill was brought with extra items. There is little choice of drinks . And everything else for 3 points
On the weekend we discovered this cozy place. We were pleasantly surprised, first of all, by affordable prices, delicious, understandable food and pleasant service. For lovers of soulful and delicious to sit-the very thing👌
The location is quite convenient, especially for walkers. The exterior is so cozy and Odessa, with a hint of something European (the entourage of the street plays).
I haven't been to the institution itself, I just passed by. But I intend to go. I put 5* for the appearance, and if something goes wrong, you can always edit the review))
I really liked it, one of the best restaurants in Minsk. We are from Moscow, we have not eaten so delicious for a long time. We will definitely come back.
A chic concept and an attempt to arrange an atmospheric establishment. But! Just tear off the service and throw it away! They ruined all the good mood, and in the end they also messed up with the payment.They couldn't bring the whole meal - they dropped the bread. It's sad! It's a pity that cool establishments with a cool idea spoil because of simple staff training. Dear management!! At least teach them to smile! Not to mention changing dirty tablecloths before boarding new guests! One star for the delicious borscht with beef, cutlets with puree and smelt! So it would have been fu
We celebrated a birthday on a weekday. I want to tell everyone who reads my review,
do not believe the reviews about not delicious food, but rather check for yourself and get a taste ecstasy from the most delicious pancakes with mushroom sauce, mussels in cheese sauce, ribs, mini kebabs, pike perch in cheese sauce, salad with cheese from the freshest vegetables, spread on bread, pickles. Mmmmm, I'm writing and salivating. The dishes were all served on time, as agreed in advance. The service is 5+. The restaurant has its own special, pleasant atmosphere. Beautifully set table. Nice prices. It's a great place. I advise you to visit.
Хорошее заведение. Еда по-домашнему вкусная. Цены на удивление низкие (если сравнивать с соседями по району). Персонал отзывчивый, видно, что стараются. Единственный минус - мебель на улице…что стол, что стулья вызывают тревогу по поводу своей надежности( Если проработать этот момент, то заведение одно из лучших в квартале
