Vina Bars Garage - Riga

At first we thought this place would focuse more on the wine since the food meny was quite short. but the food was indeed in my opinion top 5 in Riga. really cozy atmosphere with dimmed lighting etc. would recommend

We had a lovely dinner in this cute wine bar. Our waitress was super nice, chatty and absolutely knew what she was doing. The food was superb as well (tapas mains). Would recommend!

Wonderful interior summer garden; a truly city-ish garden stucked between two restaurants an a hotel, with a charming atmosphere when live bands are playing

Cozy place conveniently located at Bergs Bazaar! Good wine selection, decent food, friendly service.

I took a tartar and a lamb sweatbreds, together with a a set of 5 tapas. For desert I had caramelised pear on top of a honey cream with yoghurt ice cream, and a pear ice cream. It was on top of a delicious thin crust. They also baked bread for every customer, and they baked it for you in the moment Unfortunately, when I came, lunch hour was already over. The lamb sweatbreds were really good, with a very nice sauce. Only thing I could say is that it was a little fatty. The tartar was amazing. The blend of ingredients that they put in it was exquisite. The 5 tapas were 3 cheese balls, peppers with sweet cream, eggplant with mini crisps, a goat cheese crème brûlée, and a tuna bisque. The 3 cheese balls, in my opinion, were a little too cheesy, but I cannot judge, as I do not enjoy many cheeses. My friend said that they were delicious though. The peppers were amazing (especially with the bread), and in my opinion the mix of sweet cream, and roasted peppers what’s a very good idea. The eggplant was okay. Again, I don’t usually like eggplant, so I cannot give a full judgment. The goat cheese crème brûlée was really good, even though I am not a fan of goat products, I really liked this one. It was sweet, and the top layer was professional. The tuna bisque was also good, but I cannot day much of a statement on that one. I did not try a lot of it. The desert was also really good. The whole idea, and the layout was good, and the tastes mixed well. All in all, I had a very enjoyable experience. I liked the atmosphere, and the waiter spoke good English.
