Hi, I have used this resturant time, and all times have been very nice Tonight I give a shock about the invoice. Rib Eyea roast so was exactly the same as I have a few days ago, was up in x 3 price. In fact,...it was twice the Norwegian price. The starter was not in the same place as before. In fact, I was really wondering? So remember, do not order steak here, the price is terrible ..... 1550 Genays (160 EUR) for an average rib eye ... horrible. Keep out for steaksMore

Thanks for details, BRYNJAR. Our menu includes a ribeye steak from American and Ukrainian meat. The prices are different. You probably did not pay attention to this. The waiter had to clarify the details of the order. If he did not, please describe the situation...More

The service was too hasty.As everywhere UKR staff is young and unexperienced. Young people willing to do well, but they need more patience. The restaurant was at say 20-30% capacity, from what I could see. No need to rush. The menu is rather extensive and...requires some time. I ordered, and only later (too late) I realized there was an "end of year specialty" section to the menu. How sad. Nevertheless the food was very good and well prepared. Also the acoustics were good, you can communicate comfortably with table guests, which is not always the case in design restaurants.More

Sorry to see these kids in such a position but I have learned it to be normal for this country. From the hostess to the server to the Barman to the manager, none have been trained ever ! The menu is impostable for any cheflight...it is much to big. We tried 4 dishes and as expected they were average. If this place was in the west they would be bankrother. QUICKLY.More

I use TripAdvisor as an excellent guide for selecting restaurants while I am traveling. I have been to many fine restaurants, including the longest running five star restaurant in America at the time. This is the first restaurant that was listed in the TripAdvisor’s top...10 in a city that I received terrible service! The server delivered my meal and he never came back to check on me. My water glass was empty most of the meal and I wanted to order a glass of wine. I don’t think I have to wave down a server like I am hailing a taxi in NYC! While he was clearing the table he saw the empty glass and asked if I was done, not if I would like some more! The other servers had seen the empty water glass, it was the only beverage glass on the table! This restaurant needs to retrain the severs! I will never return to this restaurant!More

We came here with a family of 10. I was expecting the usual slow service in Ukraine but to my surprise the service was very efficient with very good English. The food was well done and world class. I was also very impress that the...bar tender knows how to prepare a classic dry martini. Considering that in Ukraine a dry martini is not popular. This is place you have to visit in your next trip to the beautiful city of Kharkiv.More

The food is excellent. Every dish we tried, the taste was outstanding. I was really surprised to find such a high level in Charkow. The quality of ingredients is really high. We tried the Asian part. The live music is nice and relaxing, I’m wondering...if it’s possible to dance there later in the evening, we left quite early. The service is good but not perfect. As we finished our drinks and plates, no one asked us if we’d like another one or if we’d like a dessert. I had to search and call a waiter, so it was quite weird and not corresponding to the high level of food. But after all we got everything we wanted, and I would highly recommend this restaurant to all my friends because of the excellent food. The only one negative point was a big group behind us, including some men who were talking and screaming extremely loud from time to time and disturbing other guests, and no waiter asked them to lower the voice. But maybe they decided erroneously, the first class was not the restaurant but them. :-) After all it was a very nice visit, and I would certainly return, if I should happen in Ucraine another time.More

Stopped at Nika's and sat outside. Just had drinks which were served promptly. I think this is an exceptional restaurant with excellent service. The three of us were just taking a break from visiting museums, etc. on our two day stop in Kharkiv so did...not eat here. This is type of place, if you are concerned about prices, may want to go elsewhere, if you want the best, maybe splurge a bit, this is good choice.More
