While the food here is wonderful the service is very slow. What I love about the food is that they have very traditional Latvian dishes. On our first visit in 2022 we ate lunch inside, and it took a long time to get our food...and then the check. Inside they had toys for kids to play with. We ate inside because the tables outside were all taken. This time we sat outside. The atmosphere outside is much more pleasant. Unfortunately the outdoor space is limited, as some of the spots provide no protection from sun or rain. Upon arriving, we went inside and asked if the would serve us outside. They said yes, and a young lady took us back outside with menus. We waited what seemed like forever for her to come back, when we ordered draft Latvian beers, and the garlic bread toasts (a traditional beer snack of dark bread toasted with garlic and a tiny bit of cheese). Then we waited another eternity for the beer and garlic toasts. They finally came and the garlic toasts were amazing- with a wonderful sauce- we couldn’t finish them and took them home). Then we were able to order and I don’t recall how long the wait was but it wasn’t so bad since we now had beer and a snack. My husband had the “kotletes” (meatballs in English) and they were true Latvian style with mashed potatoes and a wonderful gravy. I had chicken skewers with vegetables. The chicken was amazingly moist and flavorful. Then it took forever to get the check. We were too full for dessert but somebody next to us had an amazing looking Pavlova. They also have baked goods at the front counter. I will definitely go back for some of the baked goods. We will probably go back for the food, but only when we have time and patience!More
