It is a five star restaurant with excellent food and selection of wine. Head Chef Victor Tymchyshyn has prepared an excellent repertoire of his very original cuisine, which combines Ukrainian traditions with modern gastronomic trends. Dishes are reminiscent of the best from France. The sommelier of the restaurant Yuliya Ignatyuk can make the best choice of wine to your dish. The cozy interior of the restaurant offers the best opportunity for a relaxing evening. The large windows, gentle light combined with comfortable furniture offer an excellent opportunity for exquisite dining. It is one of the best services in Kyiv.

Grill do Brazil

According to Sol’ (sault) National restaurant award this place has got into “the top 5 meat restaurants” in 2015. This rodizio format steak house, unusual for Ukraine, is located in Pechersk central district of the city. Rodizio means "Eat all you want". For a fun and filling dinner/event, Grill do Brazil is hard to beat.
There are two cycles, one at 1900 and the second at 2100. The rosario progresses around a circle as the meat and dishes come to your table. It is all you can eat from the salad bar and rosario.
I would recommend starting with the 1900. This way you can continue with the 2100 cycle if still hungry.
Service is excellent and they have a nice selection of wines.
