Description: "Salve" - a restaurant that represents Riga city cuisine There's no better way to express the uniqueness of the people, its habits and tastes than through national cuisine. Restaurant Salve offers a taste of traditional Latvian cuisine in an elegant city manner. Restaurant Salve, which is located in the historic Blue Guard House which is part of the complex of the House of Blackheads on the Town Hall Square - the heart of Old Riga - is the right place to look for exquisite cuisine and enjoy the specialties of the capital. We offer to appraise the elegant and at the same time cozy atmosphere of the restaurant with a fine Dutch style interior to all citizens of Riga and its guests. Internationally trained chefs and waiters guarantee exquisite food flavor and high service standards. In Latin, "Salve" means - "Welcome!" Which excellently reflects the essence of the restaurant, as each guest is gladly welcome there.

Wow, we are still smiling two days after having dinner here, this place you simply can't afford not to visit.The menu is varied, interesting and the quality of the food, we where served with, was absolutely astounding.

Looked after by Andre, couldn't have been more attentive and friendly, look after this one - he's a star!

Would certainly return and definitely recommend!

I had so much fun here! Another restaurant that is decorated adorably and it had great traditional Latvian food. The salmon cakes were so good and the grey peas were one of my favorites! We also got the black bread soup for dessert - it was amazing! Highly recommend for a Latvian experience!

The restaurant was expecting a large group the night we went so we were very lucky to have reserved one of the last tables. We saw several couples being turned away but the staff did so very graciously and were genuinely apologetic for turning them away. Our waiters, Evgeny and Andre, were superb, very attentive, and took the time to recommend and explain the different dishes to us. The food was simple, hearty, and tasty. We were glad we tried the bread soup after Andre explained how it was made as it wasn't something we would have ordered off the menu ourselves. It was a bit unusual but unexpectedly quite delicious.

When we went to Salve we had great expactations, but all of them didn't come true. Menu is outdated and not of a good quality. Quite average, but overpriced in comparison to other restaurants in Riga. Service is also a big min. Waitor was quite cocky and couldn't handle our group.
