One of the best restaurants in town with contemporary Latvian cuisine with a very comfortable modern decoration. Service is very friendly and professional. They feed your stomach as well as eyes with their experimental food design. Worths to pat a bit more.

Very good choice of restaurant either you are on a business dinner, romantic or with friends. I had great foie gras here and the dessert (cheese cake) was very good. I loved the way they serve the food here, it is a bit different than the traditional and not to modern either. The portions are of a just perfect size.... More

We were wowed by this restaurant! Every bite of food was delicious from the scallops to start to the main course ( 3 different courses all excellent and a good quantity) to the special dessert. The service and ambience were also perfect.

This was my 4th or even 5th time being there before I got full impression of the place... I will not go there for a dinner because the price level is a bit too high, you can not enjoy the nice park or views in the evening (unless it is summer outside). Still the food is good quality! Service is... More

We had an absolutely faboulous 3-course dinner with a nice bottle of red wine to compliment. Food lacked the ingenious, the surprising touch and the creativity and playfulness or oldschool authenticity to be excellent (michelin material). The pricing is reasonable in a Western European perspective but very high for the baltics 200 USD for 2 persons all included. I would... More

This is one of the best restaurants visited in Riga. Food was delicious and nicely served, sommelier was very professional and gave us great advice on wine selection. Prices are quite high, but definitely worth it!

The Sunday brunch at Biblioteka is exactly what a brunch should be; excellent food in a relaxed atmosphere with all the time in the world to sit and slowly enjoy both your food and company. By far the best brunch I've had in Latvia, and quite frankly it ranks up there with the best I've had world wide. The food... More

The interior is nice and modern. Perhaps the best thing is the distance between the tables, no problem to keep the conversation private. The only downside was the sofas, I found them a bit too low for a really comfortable dining experience. The menu is creative and varied, but perhaps a bit too pretentious. Limited choice for someone who does... More
