Best places: Bistros in Riga, Latvia

👍👍 I don’t know how they can do it! This was really simple traditional food of great quality and at the most amazing price I have ever tried in the western world. The staff was also quick to serve and very friendly. A simple little place that I would never want to miss when in Riga! 👩‍🍳💋👌 (That’s a...

👍 Love this place, the atmosphere and the food is amazing. A bit confusing system at first, you pick each piece of food individually and pay individually, so beware its not like an 'all you can eat' buffet. Staff was friendly but there was some issues with the language barrier. All in all, love this p...

👍👍 All this and a coke for 8.60EUR! As a Chinese, I’d say that the food was great and homely. Owners are really kind too! Do pop by for authentic chinese food - love the lemon chicken!

👍👍 Simply the best place to enjoy traditional Latvian food for a small price! Everything there is extremely delicious and you won't even have to wait, since it's bistro format. Also the atmosphere is amazing- you can enjoy some authentic music while eating. These times there's also a possibility to cho...

👍 It's a nice place to grab a quick bite without waiting. There is a good mix of local, western and eastern cuisine, so probably everyone can find something to like. The quality might not be restaurant level (it's a bistro after all) and the prices are not as nice as they used to be, but still Lido is...

👍👍 This is my favourite Lido where I could come with my friends or family for a nice authentic Latvian food and I love the traditional design and the wooden seating areas, the location is very central and easy access. Has a great section of food and you have buffet style foods too and you. And you can...

👍 Had dinner here before taking the bus 22 from Old Town to the airport. As we already knew how Lido works, we knew what to expect. It's like a buffet with every individual food and drink tagged with price. This Lido Origo is a lot smaller than the Lido Leisure Centre but there is adequate range of fo...

👍👍 probably the best sushi in town ! delicious sushi and Asian-inspired hot meals in a trendy, contemporary interior by a famous Latvian designer Zane Tetere. love their green smoothies and a chia seed pudding !

👍👍 Very convenient, just outside the gate of cargo port. Food are delicious and crew are also kind to foreigners.

👍 Operates rather quickly so you don't have to stand too long even in moderate lines. You might have to make terms with some waiting, though, since it's fairly popular during lunch time. The food is good and the selection is surprisingly decent for a place of its size. The prices are great, as you ca...

😠 Absolutely overpriced and quality is disgusting. I am a foodie, and have nothing against paying over a hundred for two in a nice place. BUT. Hartvik is not the one. For meat products Janis Sauka is WAY better. And cakes, ready made dishes and buns are twice more expensive as anywhere else. Bough...

👍 If you want to have traditional Latvian cuisine this place is a must try.

👍👍 Delicious burgers. Om-Nom-nom!

🫤 Just go to a Lido.. this place is overpriced. Shashlik, mixed vegetables, mushroom sauce, shuba salad and a glass of water came to €19+, maybe it was affordable some years back but inflation has hit very hard. Lido chains around Riga have better value for money, variety, atmosphere and service (unle...

😠 Toilet is closed / isn't working. There's no sign anywhere in the restaurant and staff didn't have any courtesy to give heads up. Had food and drinks later to realise we have to find the toilet elsewhere. Staff were rude about it. Upon asking whethet the toilet is available the lady said "well, the...

😐 It's ok. Cafeteria style food court, nothing particularly outstanding, but nothing particularly bad either.

👍👍 Amazing homestyle food, great service Went on a 5 day trip ate here 3 times.

👍 Tasty meals. Not the cheapest place around but quite affordable. Not particularly atmospheric. Very busy during lunch hours.
