Kiev Restaurants

Fellini restaurant in Kiev Ukraine might just possibly be the best restaurants in Kiev.  It is open 24 hours a day and has a great and reliable kitchen.  The service here is unparalleled.  I highly suggest the chicken Alfredo for only nine dollars.  They also have a great crayfish soufflé at $15.  The crayfish is baked in cheese and it is very rich and need to be eaten with bread which Fellini restaurant is famous for.  Generally prices here are very expensive but if you pick the right things on the menu this restaurant will not only be a great and enjoyable experience for will be reasonably priced. Click here to see more of Fellini restaurant Kiev.

Friday’s   What do you want me to say, it is Friday’s The Friday’s here in Kiev is just like the one back home. The same great food, great atmosphere, and great service at a reasonable price, well reasonable for Westerners.  Location is right off Khreschatyk next to Bessarabskaya market. In fact the address is 5a Bessarabskaya Square.  235-42-64 open noon to midnight. I suggest the chicken fingers. Fantastic and only 28 Hrivnas with fries! Click here to see more of Friday’s restaurant Kiev.

Globus food Court is like your typical food Court to you are familiar with in your mall back home.  There is a McDonald’s, a Baskin-Robbins, the Ukrainian equivalent of Kentucky fried chicken and many other fast food restaurants there the Ukrainian equivalents of your restaurants back home.  I particularly like to each of the food court and then go up the escalator and have a coffee at the coffeehouse Café on the second-floor to people watch the people in the food court below and the people walk by.  The food court in Globe shopping center at the main square independence square is a great place to go and grab a quick snack or fast food. Click here to see more on the restaurants in Globus food court Kiev.

Koleco Russian Restaurant has a fantastic design and wonderful food. Koleso is located on a boat on the Dniper river and is filled with colorful rooms highlighting the history and culture f Russian and the Ukraine. The prices are reasonable considering the quality and in fact, Koleso Russia Restaurant may have the best Chicken Kiev in Kiev! See more of Koleso Russian Restaurant in Kiev here.

Le Cosmopolite This is my new favorite restaurant. It is also known as the Belgian Beer Cafe. It is famed for it’s beer but I like it for the food. I am not a fish eater and I highly suggest the mixed seafood entrée. The service here is great. The quality is first rate and this is not a cheap restaurant but not one that will kill you either. It is located directly across from the entrance to Golden Gate metro station adjacent to the opera house. 47 Vladimirskaya Street 228-7278.

 McDonalds :What can I say about McDonald’s?  Everyone is familiar with McDonald’s and the McDonald’s in Kiev Ukraine have the traditional restaurant menus.  The food here is priced about the same and  cost about the same as back home.  This service and restaurant is usually cleaner and better.  There are 14  McDonald’s in Kiev.  The main Street Kreschatik alone has four! The main square in Kiev is called independent square.  Independence square has an underground mall with a food court there is a McDonald’s there in the food court as well as aboveground.  Down the street in the middle of Kreschatik there’s a McDonald’s next to the Metro entrance.  Both of these McDonald’s are meeting places and your date or friend may ask you to meet them in front of one of these McDonald’s. Click here for more information on McDonalds Kiev

O’Brien’s Irish Pub  “The first and only Irish pub in Kiev”. This is one of the bars where the local foreign residents hang out in. The food and service is fantastic. I suggest the chicken boxy a chicken pancake dish that is excellent. If you are lonely for the English language come here after work hours and hang out at the upstairs bar. There will be dozens of Americans, British and Irish.  Opens at 8:00. 17a Mykhailivska 229-15-84 Click here for more info on O’Briens Irish Pub Kiev Ukraine

Patio Pizza Located in the same building as Fridays. Again, great food, great service, and great price. A Patio Pizza is 58 Hrivna ($11.00). I can’t tell you the number of toppings. There are too many to count! Best pizza I have had in Kiev. This pizza will feed two average people, or one very hungry American. The restaurant also has a large selection of great Italian food. Authentic  Italian atmosphere inside. 235-44-46 5a Bessarabskaya Square 235-44-46. Open noon until midnight. Click here to see more of Patio Pizza Restaurant Kiev.

Planeta Sushi is a great sushi restaurant conveniently located on the main street Kreschatik only 100 yards from the main  square Independence Square. Most ladies in Kiev find sushi VERY exotic. Click here for more information on Planets Sushi  restaurant Kiev Ukraine.

Repriza Cafe Kiev. There are 4 Repriza restaurants in Kiev. hey are the perfect cafes. The cakes and deserts are probably the best in Kiev and the main dishes are VERY delicious and are less than $10.00. I would highly suggest the Salmon in a white cream mushroom sauce and the potatoes au gratin.  Please click here to see more of Repriza cafe Kiev Ukraine.

Taras  For those of you who want the Ukrainian experience this is the place. This restaurant is in Taras Shevchenko park and looks like a village home. The interior is traditional Ukrainian and so is the food. The prices are very reasonable, the service is good and if you want local food come here. 235-2132

Tequila House If you are in Kiev and you are missing Mexican food or you would like to show the locals a taste of what it is like back home you can not miss by going to the Tequila House. Tequila House is exactly like the typical Mexican restaurant that you have been to 100 times. I eat her often. The service is great, food fantastic, and the atmosphere makes me homesick. 

Wagon Restaurant  If you want to drop some bucks (Hrivnas in Kiev) and have a great experience this is the place. The restaurant is made up of train wagons and platforms. My favorite is the turn of the century British wagon but the Tsar Nicolas wagon is only for parties. The locals tend to like the cowboy wagon. Bring money and impress your date. The food is great too. Have the steak with tiger shrimp inside. 52 Red Army Street. 227-0490.

Yakatori Japanese Restaurant is by far the best Japanese restaurant in Kiev. Yakatori restaurant is constantly receiving awards for being the best Japanese and Sushi Restaurant in Kiev. If you do not like Sushi Yakatori has a large menu of cooked foods.  My favorite is a cooked roll of chicken breast with a cheese center for less than $10.00. Yakatori  has 4 locations in Kiev and all are a short taxi ride from the main street in Kiev. I would suggest the location at 27 Lesi Ukrainki Boulevard. You can even order food delivered at 237-55-37. Click here to see more of Yakatori Japanese Sushi Restaurant in Kiev.
