I've always liked this cafe on Independence, especially the terrace, friendly staff and good cuisine, but lately I've probably just been unlucky when I get there. A couple of days ago, a friend and I came to drink cocktails and have lunch, but they did not cook hot dishes that day, since there was no cook, although it was a day off. An aperol, which did not feel like alcohol at all, although we did not order a non-alcoholic one. A few weeks earlier, I went in for lunch and regretted that I had made an order because I had to wait, but all this time I was uncomfortable because a drunk customer was sitting behind my back, sleeping, periodically waking up and yelling at the entire terrace; the workers meekly tried to make a remark to him, but it all went on and no one else reacted. In addition, I ordered a beef carpacho, but unfortunately it did not look like a carpacho, not to taste, not by sight. They were just thickly sliced shapeless pieces of meat.But thanks to the admin-the girl reacted and suggested not to include carpacho in the bill. I like many dishes there, especially salads and lunch menus. But alas, there is something to work on-in terms of atmosphere and cuisine.

We came by chance on Friday evening. Surprisingly, there were empty seats. The cafe is quite simple but cozy. Pleasant background music is playing. They were served quickly. Prices are average in Minsk. The tongue salad was very good. The Irish coffee is just great.

She has lived half of her life in a house opposite the building where this cafe is now located. Therefore, I have been here many times, this place was famous in Minsk and the food here was always delicious and satisfying. Until today... I wasn't going to write anything, but I can't calm down from indignation and an unpleasant feeling that I was deceived in every way... I decided to go there with my friend, who has never been here, and I confidently told her that this is the place where I usually meet with my friends and colleagues. From the first minutes when I picked up the menu, I couldn't figure out where I was.... The menu completely disappointed me. A meager assortment of hot dishes and salads, and the price tag for salads (24 rubles) was almost equal to the cost of hot dishes. As a result, we both ordered pancakes with salmon and cheese sauce (a hot dish). On a large plate there were three thin (2mm thick, 6cm by 4cm) crispy shingles (more than one potato did not go into their preparation)... Instead of the declared raw sauce (I did not immediately realize that this was it), a tiny rose was squeezed out on each shingle with a syringe) 1cm in diameter, which it was impossible to anoint even this miniature shingle. Well, instead of salmon, we were put three tiny pieces (approx. 2 by 4cm) of soaked salted salmon, and I had to spit out the 4th piece, because they obviously did not have time to soak it... And this outrage cost me 28 rubles... Angry and hungry, we went to another place to eat... I strongly do not recommend this place!!! We waited for this work of culinary art for at least half an hour, it's good that we were still in a great mood and had something to talk about. Just a shame to the owner of this place!!!

I was at the institution today, spent several times more time than I planned. I had lunch and dinner, it's very cozy here! Very nice staff, big greetings to the two Nastya. I came to sit before leaving Minsk, did not regret it, and ended the trip with a good impression of the institution and the people in the city as a whole)
I recommend it to everyone!

The place is good. Cozy and delicious. Now we have also added a lunch menu at affordable prices. Thanks to the waiter Polina for the warm welcome for the second time. But the receptionist-waiter Marina ruined the whole vacation. It seems that the person is in a boarding house for the hard of hearing. Loud conversation throughout the hall, taking orders, communicating with visitors. Perhaps she once worked as a head teacher at a school and forgot that she had changed her job. And I forgot that people come to her to rest. She reacted rudely to the remark made. It seems that she came to my restaurant, not me to her. This is the first time I've seen such an attitude

It's a great place. I recommend it to everyone....
It was like this until 01.01.2024... It's very sad... We visited this institution for many years, but the irreparable happened, the owners of the institution changed and everything changed. The most disgusting impressions remained with us on the first of the new year... Especially the lady manager. We tried to give another chance by marking the event there a couple of weeks later and again everything went just disgusting... The impression is that the establishments do not need regular visitors who have been visiting this place for years... I don't advise anyone...

On December 15, 2023, the 50th anniversary of the gymnasium was celebrated! Teachers, of course, are picky people. It's hard to please them. The cafe staff coped with this task perfectly!!! The atmosphere itself, the exquisite cuisine, the musical program all contributed to the creation of a festive atmosphere and a wonderful pastime!!! The holiday will be remembered by our friendly team for a long time, and the Olivo cafe will certainly become a favorite place to relax!!! We will definitely tell everyone and advise them to visit!!! Many thanks to the team!!! Prosperity and grateful visitors!!!

I liked everything very much, it was delicious and very fresh. The "homemade" tinctures and desserts pleased me. The atmosphere is cozy, but the sofas are too hard. Special thanks to the waitress, I liked the service.

I haven't been there for 15 years, I looked at the menu, I didn't have what it was, I asked about the croutons with sauce, they brought it, they're not on the menu, only for this the highest score, thank you for fulfilling your wishes! The dranik with mushrooms and meat went well, overall positive impressions about the establishment and service!

We were there on Friday evening. Surprisingly, it was free. A cozy, quiet place. Nice staff, awesome snacks. Thanks to the administrator of Victoria for the excellent service.
I will add: 13.05 my friends celebrated. The appetizers and hot dishes were beyond praise. And then they took out the Napoleon cake, which the chefs make themselves. It was just a gastronomic feast. Everything was very tasty.

We arrived in Minsk and decided to try the local cuisine.Unfortunately, the choice fell on this institution.We ordered pancakes with salmon and pancakes with pork, mushrooms and fried onions on the menu without photos of dishes.And, of course, we were disappointed
The salmon is old and soaked and is not suitable for consumption in order to avoid poisoning.The second course was brought in a pot under a crust of dough.It looked disgusting, as if everything that was found in the kitchen was put in a pot and baked in the oven with sour cream, there was some kind of mess, brrrr.In a word, it's grumpy.And of course, I didn't even touch this dish.As a result, the money was thrown away, the mood was spoiled and the impression of the local cuisine.
Fortunately, it turned out that there are other places in Minsk where decent dishes are served for an adequate price.

Impressions depend on the cook. On the first visit it was very tasty, borscht as if with a barbecue, with a smoked flavor, very tasty. The rest of the dishes did not lag behind. We got out with my wife again and were disappointed. In borscht, the usual boiled chicken with a taste like in the dining room, carpaccio level,, took out the purchased one from the package,,. I would also like to look out the clean windows. Both times they were cloudy after the winter.

The food is of high quality (the waiting time is short).The staff is polite and trained.The atmosphere is cozy (a good music program from an audio carrier).The interior could be improved a little, but it is generally good. The choice of drinks is standard, quite good.The food menu is varied.The pizza is of a very good level, in my opinion (there are big discounts on takeaways).The beer selection could be increased (it would be good to add live beer).I advise everyone (I think you will be satisfied).The cafe is on two levels (there is a basement).

The cafe is located on the central street of Minsk - Independence Avenue. Hot dishes are delicious, large portions. I was a little disappointed with the teapot, the volume was too small (only 200 ml) - so I took off one star. Just take this moment into account if you order tea.
Bulbyanik - 🔥, a frying pan with potatoes is also delicious, a little dry.

A good cafe. We were looking for a place with traditional food, there is a section of national dishes on the menu, this is a plus.
The kind waitresses, when they brought the dish, told us what was in the pot, what was covered with edible dough on top, if it was inconvenient for you to eat from the pot, there was an additional plate at the bottom. It's very pleasant and you don't sit like a fool, you don't mess around in this pot, but eat as you like.
The food is delicious, the portions are huge, the prices are reasonable. The next time I visit Minsk, I would like to visit the cafe again))

There used to be very tasty dishes - mochanka, dumplings, caesar. Now the first two have been removed, and Caesar has been ruined. What for? Apparently, the effective manager is an owl.

We celebrated the anniversary on 17.12.22. We ordered it in advance. The amount of the deposit is more than democratic. The terms of the order will suit everyone!! The administrator advises, advises, and meets you halfway. The atmosphere is very pleasant. Ground floor with cozy tables. The second, or rather the lower one, is for banquets, if small, then 2, if large, then only for you. From 19.00 to 23.00 pleasant music is playing, a pretty girl with good manners and voice sings live. Responds to requests. The order was clearly executed. Everything is on time. The waitress worked quietly, silently, very efficiently and attentively. After finishing, she collected the remaining snacks and hot dishes without asking, packed them and handed them to us. The calculation is fair!! The cafe is located in the center of Minsk, it is convenient to drive up. We were very pleased with our choice of this particular institution. We'll come again!!!! Thanks!

A very cozy little cafe. Without any special frills. Just to meet someone to have a heart-to-heart talk. At first there wasn't even any music, then there was a quiet muffled one. There are few people. The service is polite. The cuisine is delicious.

The prices do not match the quality. Pizza is like from a supermarket (just defrosting probably). The menu is weak. Borscht is medium. Caesar is just terrible, even Cherie was not found, for such money it is a failure. As a result, a weak kitchen with above-average prices. I do not recommend it. The waitress is well done, there are no questions for her;)

An uncomfortable cafe. The outdoor terrace is very noisy. It is very quiet inside the cafe, but even the table in the corner did not give a feeling of comfort, repairs are required, a change in the concept of the room. Personally, it seemed to me that it smelled like a station canteen... The waitress is polite and attentive. The prices are too high for the quality of the dishes. In particular, dumplings with cherries are not just overcooked, but also served in a deep plate half filled with broth, as if they were dumplings. Is it really difficult to drain the water? Smoothies are generally a fiasco. Almost warm pink milk with a berry flavor and whipped foam on the surface... Just liquid milk... At the same time, the cheese plate was good (in terms of the cheeses served, but the grapes were so-so).

The interior is not very fresh.
A very inexperienced waiter.
And most importantly, of the 5 dishes ordered, only 3 were liked by the guests, and even then, one of them (dumplings with potatoes) had to wait 50 minutes. And the sturgeon and pork, unfortunately, were completely tasteless (the sturgeon was not at all fresh, and the shrimp in this dish were not at all tiger-like, as promised by the menu, and the pork was very overcooked and very poorly chewed). But to be fair, the zucchini in these two dishes were very good.
In general, you can have a snack, but you need to guess the dishes. And keep in mind that the waiter will not help you with this.
