When we visited in June, sunlight filled the space until nearly 10:00pm! The 5-course menu was exceptional and innovative, as were the accompanying drinks (we opted for the alcohol-free option). The staff were friendly, dynamic, and very attentive. We will definitely return when we come back to Latvia, and we highly recommend this place to anyone who enjoys high quality and creative dining. It's only an hour's drive from Riga, and the city of Cesis is also worth a visit.

They do not offer vegan options, but the meat and wine are outstanding. The gin is also excellent. The dining area is clean and there is great respect for customers. After the meal, you can relax in the lounge area. The park nearby is perfect for a walk. There is also ample parking available. I would give this restaurant a five-star rating.

They also have fantastic cocktails available in a separate lounge for a post-dinner drink. This is a must-visit spot.
