  • This petite little restaurant features and outdoor seating area under the watchful gaze of Maiden's Tower, as well as a local themed interior.

    The food served here is among some of the best in the country and is presented to Western standards. A wide variety of cuisine is served here, from local to Mediterranean delights.

    My favourite dish is the crab cakes to start, as it has a very mild taste and is served with a variety of dips and sauces.

    Avtoretroclub restaurant: The most uncommon restaurant in Baku

  • I liked Avtoretroclub restaurant most of all.
    Design of this restaurant is so uncommon: they separated restaurant to some different parts (Russian cottages - izba, Muslim cottages, big public banquet room with wood furniture, beautiful garden with waterfall and lake, also many rarities and ancient motorcycles and cars in the garden, living music ).
    There are European, Muslim, Russian dishes and also you can smoke hookah...
    Prices are very low...I had many different dishes and drinks and paid 10$ for everything...
    The director of this restaurant is very intellectual sportive ( little English, fluent Azeri and Russian speaking man), his name is Elshan...He likes travelers and makes them big discount.

  • This is the Italian restuarant belongs to Azerbaijan State Philarmony.
    It looks better from outside but inside is also not that bad. It was Sunday afternoon with "all you can eat" service. Pizza was average.

    Nothing special. Average Italian.

  • Very nice food and a good atmosphere. Quite busy when I was there (Dec 2007). The bar next door is also part of the complex 'The Lounge'. The spaghetti bolognese was excellent and we had a lovely starter made with gorgonzola. The place has a good name locally and the service was ok. We also got service quickly, and the wine list was reasonable.

    Spaghetti bolognese - nice and meaty, great sauce. Pasta was just right consistency and very hot.

    Shanghai: Chinese in Baku

  • I am indulging in a Chinese restaurant, where the ex-pats say the food is authentic and not served as a burnt offering to the gods. Started with Sour and Hot soup. Truly fantasic. No pork was used at all (Muslim country you know) rich and quite spicy, with sweet, hot, sour, and salty flavors. Really exceptional. Then crisp pork spring rolls. Perhaps a bit oily, but the filling was meaty, the wrapper crisp and flaky, and the flavor very well developed. No sauce needed. The Ginger-pork dumplings were light and tender. You could really taste the ginger spice. The dumpling dough was difficult to pick up because it would break under the pressure of the chopsticks. Each entree item is served on a small metal box with holes in it. Within each box are warming candles to keep the food hot! I ate slippery-coated chicken with fried cauliflower and carrots. Mild and succulent. The meal ended with "green" tea that was closed to red or weak oolong. Still warming and calming. No bother. A hot towel and some candied walnuts made a nice top off.

    Sour and Hot Soup, without a doubt.

  • This is a Turkish Restaurant. It is big and garden is covered with "tent" durng winter. The best thing about the restaurant is there is a large menu. You can order grill, seafood, kebaps, italian, tukish, local, vegetarian, etc.

    The grill is inside the restaurant, next to you. You can see and smell the food while cooking. Best is grill for me.
