Cafe Abaata is an institution with a non-permanent kitchen and a bar (for me, it's still a good cafe rather than a restaurant). However, we visit it regularly due to its authenticity, geographical location, proximity to attractions and the possibility of parking. By the way, the first acquaintance (a few years ago) was extremely unsuccessful... the khachapur that we were presented with is still in my gallery... imagine if this would be the first experience of acquaintance with an Abkhazian dish for someone:) There was a fairly positive experience of regular, three meals a day with children in view of staying in the hotel of the same name. When we visit on occasion, we most often order Oriental dishes: pilaf, fried khinkali, lagman, they have never failed us yet) Teas and lemonades are dancing in quality, sometimes we refused to include mountain drinks in the bill. An interesting choice of seating options: outdoors, in a stone hall with massive furniture, a fireplace and animal skins, on the second floor with the possibility of seating on carpets, pillows and sofas. Payment in cash or by transfer, service fee is not included in the bill. The price tag is acceptable. Despite the shortcomings, I recommend Abaatu to visit)

The restaurant is conveniently located, everything is beautiful inside, very cozy, there is a fireplace. There were a lot of people, we waited a long time for the order. I didn't like the food. We ordered khinkali with cheese and meat, chebureks, there is no meat in the chebureks, there was no juice in the khinkali. The compote was delicious. There is no payment by card, and I am not willing to transfer either. Take the cash. They didn't say in advance that there was no card payment.

Abaat's restaurant is delicious and without rotovirus! The chef of the restaurant is Andre Martin (he cooked for Nicolas Sarkozy, Mireille Mathieu, Philip Kirkorov). We ate only in this restaurant for 2 weeks of living in Staraya Gagra in September 2024, sometimes we went to other equally pretentious places. However, Abaat's restaurant is the best in Abkhazia! I decided to try mushrooms here for the first time. There is an unsurpassed duck buffet, chicken pate, desserts, sturgeon and humpback kebab and much more. In 2 weeks, we tried almost all the menus together with my wife. In the evening after 19:00-20:00 there is live music in the restaurant: female vocals. The audience is very pleasant, there are almost no flies, the air conditioner is working. I celebrated my 36th birthday at the Abaat restaurant in Gagra and all the food was very tasty! Payment is only in cash or by transfer. Non-guests of the Abaat hotel can come for a buffet breakfast for 600 rubles per person and for 1200 for dinner.
