A great place to eat! The restaurant is located within walking distance from the Old and New Castles, right next to the fire tower. We arrived at the time of the business lunch and two menus were brought to us. One is lunch, the other is original, a restaurant with a bar menu, etc. We ordered a couple of items from both menus. Salad, soup, hot dishes, cocktail and dessert. The dishes didn't wait long, probably, because they admired the views from the large panoramic windows. They did not sit on the terrace because of the strong wind, although there are comfortable sofas and hanging nest chairs. And what struck us the most was the timely and systematic delivery! As soon as one plate was emptied, a new one appeared in its place. That's really a credit for it! In other restaurants, if you order several items, they will (almost) bring them to you immediately, and while you eat one, the other will cool down a hundred times. It was, of course, not very pleasant. But this is something else entirely. As if we were being followed (in a good way). Very tasty dishes and excellent service. Not loud music, as in many restaurants, but calmly unobtrusive playing somewhere from somewhere. If you eat in Grodno, then only Bakst!!!

We were in Grodno for two days. The first time we went to Bakst was at lunch. And we were endlessly fascinated by the atmosphere, the interiors, the musical selection and, of course, the dishes. And we decided to put the final point of our stay in Grodno here. Since it was Friday, I called and booked a table. I was warned that there would be "special maintenance" in the room where I originally wanted to be. It was expected, so it didn't bother me at all. But in fact, it turned out that this event could be heard in every corner of the restaurant. And there was neither the atmosphere nor the magic that had charmed us the day before. For some reason, even the tea was not as delicious as the day before. Everything else was delicious, the wait was not long, the waiters were very friendly… But we came to the conclusion that we would probably still choose other days and times to visit on our next visit to the city.
