Dzintars Kristovskis, Latvia's leading expert on local produce, and Raimonds Tomsons, the world's best sommelier, have combined their knowledge and talent to offer the guests of Barents a parade of different flavours and the most distinctive harmony between food and drink. Barents is undoubtedly the most prestigious restaurant in Riga.
Located in a former warehouse, the restaurant first impresses with its exclusive interior. And then immediately with its equally exclusive food. The smooth service is a pleasure to watch. Of course, the best seats in the restaurant are at the chef's table, where you can get closest to the art of cooking.
This restaurant has been a must for Riga gourmets for many years. This iconic restaurant is not getting old, it is getting better with time. Every dish on the long and varied Italian menu is always perfectly prepared and the wine list includes several wines to go with it. Eating here will make you want to come back again and again.
The restaurant has an extensive menu. You can get just about anything you associate with Italy. And they are all remarkably well prepared and very tasty. Special attention is paid to children's entertainment in this family-friendly restaurant. Besides, the restaurant is one of the most Instagrammed in Riga.
The former fire station is now all daylight and white. It's the perfect setting to enjoy the unexpected combinations of food and drink that the restaurant has to offer in abundance. Maris Jansons is undoubtedly one of Latvia's finest chefs, and his restaurant is reason enough for a trip to the small town of Cesis, an hour's drive from the capital Riga.
