I was here yesterday. The waitress was unfriendly, constantly rolling her eyes and behaving as if we were the ones being paid to be there. She showed no class and no manners, and I didn’t feel welcome at all. Her demeanor made me feel uncomfortable. At first, we thought she might just be in a bad mood, but soon noticed how friendly she was with other guests. I decided to give this place another chance by coming back last night, but once again, the service was disappointing. Last time, the bartender was rude as well. This is the hospitality business—you should make guests want to spend their money. I’m glad we didn’t order any food, because I wouldn’t have been able to enjoy it given how poor the service was. I’m never coming back to this place again.

A very tasty place that we came across by chance while walking through Minsk at night. The bar orientation of the place is confusing only before the first order. Incredibly delicious. Quick return of dishes, gradual, bring everything as needed. The waiters are well aware of the menu, their work and treat the guest pleasantly. That feeling when the service anticipates expectations. Thanks to this, out of 4 days in Minsk, two of us had dinner in Insomnia. And the bathroom is just a work of art. I've never washed my hands and giggled at the beautiful inscriptions. Thanks to the whole team.

It's a great place to visit in the afternoon, evening and morning) why is this the case, because when all the places close in the area, these continue to work. I would like to express my special thanks to the waiter Alexander, who not only served us well, but also told us how to get to Grodno. Also, many thanks to the receptionist, unfortunately I did not see the name, she helped us all 3 times of our arrival. Yes, we were there 3 times in 1 day. The food is not a wow effect, but the kitchen is not bad, but the bar counter is a wow effect. Zakhar from the capital of the Arctic and his friend are incredible masters of their craft. We made the coolest cocktails, taking into account all our wishes and tastes. Moreover, their historical knowledge and good psychological skills allow them to be excellent conversationalists, maintaining a conversation on almost any topic. The place is cozy and clean. I recommend it!!!

Thank you for the warm welcome. You did well!!! We wish you success and prosperity. Everything is on top and the atmosphere and the staff are friendly and the decoration and pleasant music. It's me. A traveling musician . Budulunyo. Ps . And a huge special thanks for the hip hop music. I write similar things myself , and it's cool ( your trick) that I don 't usually hear this genre in other establishments . And more... I often read reviews and often notice either ignoring the reviews themselves , or the problems they mention . And then I see that you are seriously engaged in reviews . 5 🌟 is the minimum . You guys are just great, keep it up. I am glad that there is such an institution in Minsk. 😉

In the evening, while walking in Minsk, I came across this place. There is a summer porch, you can also sit inside. Very tasty cuisine.. Both the draniki and dessert were very tasty. The Drinks Are Amazing.. I was pleased with the very interesting description in the menu, the rich taste and the presence of alcohol. Thanks a lot to the good-natured and smiling waiter. The evening was painted, I'll come back again if I come to you. I will also say that the price tags are not bad. The price - quality ratio is excellent

A timeless place, an amazing atmosphere, a cozy room, an unusual interior in the bar area, combined with extravagant bathrooms and a cinematic second part of the hall, along with a good kitchen and an excellent bar, give a truly good evening! Insomnia bartenders are professionals in their field, winners of cool contests and will tell you the right drink for you, I definitely recommend it.

I want to leave a brief review about the Insomnia bar. The atmosphere here is incredibly cozy, and the interior is perfectly chosen – the perfect place to relax. The staff is polite and helpful, always ready to help with the selection of drinks. The range of cocktails is varied, and everything we tried was very tasty. We recommend it to everyone who is looking for a pleasant place to relax!

It's a great place with late dinners. The tinctures are excellent, especially limoncello. The cocktail Spritz from the Chef deserves special praise. The food is delicious, the portions are of good size. Bruschetta with shrimp and avocado- avocado is soft, shrimp is good. Salmon tartar is excellent, the fish is fresh and juicy. The olives are great. Strudel with thin dough, fatty ice cream and a lot of delicious apples. The design is funny, the waiters are great.

Tired after the road, we went to the first place we came across, where there were places. The interior, the staff are excellent, the menu is modest. It was probably a mistake to order draniki in this place (we, tourists, should have eaten them in Belarus))) The serving is beautiful, but the pancakes themselves are tasteless, of indistinct consistency, literally choked on them (from hunger). The pasta was delicious, the neighbors brought some kind of beautiful risotto and beautiful cocktails. In general, here for European cuisine, not for pancakes) And in the end, there was a strain with the restroom - only one of the two was working, there was a queue for the entire basement.

An interesting institution that needs some improvement. We accidentally found ourselves in it on a stormy Saturday evening in the bustling center of Minsk. We were honestly warned that the wait for the dishes would be long. Almost all the tables around were also only with drinks. It turns out that the restaurant consciously accepts dozens of orders that it cannot serve on time, which, in my opinion, is not very fair to the guests, and is unlikely to make a profit for the institution. The dishes are very decent, the 40 minutes of waiting were justified. The staff is qualified, it is pleasant to communicate.

We had a wonderful time at this place. The price tag is slightly above average, but the guys are worth it. Excellent service. We were sitting on the terrace, but the waiter Evgenia (I may be mistaken, the girl is so beautiful and courteous that I did not remember the badge) impeccably watched the glasses (poured on time and accurately) and other wishes. The food is great. Fresh products, thoughtful combinations, pleasant serving. We dreamed of having dinner here again, but we didn't leave before the plane. Sorry. We will have to return to Minsk))

To say that this place is disgusting is an understatement. Half of the dishes on the menu are missing, the dishes that are supposedly available are brought with ingredients that are not declared or the dish is not fully equipped, something is not reported. The waiter's comments were answered with "there's an intern in the kitchen")). We came to celebrate a birthday, but in the end we received an unfinished meal, tasteless, not sincere, the service was sheer rudeness. In general, I won't come myself anymore and I don't advise anyone. I RECOMMEND ALL TOURISTS TO PASS BY THIS PLACE. On the way out, the waiter, who is also the admin, pushed my friend from behind and did not even apologize.

They accept booking orders (as of 11/23/24), they do not warn that the landing will not be in the restaurant, but in the summer annex. You understand that at the end of November, the cold in the semi-barn-type outbuilding is a dog's cold, severe discomfort. In such conditions, it is not that visitors are not allowed to stay, even restaurant employees (if you can call it a restaurant) are not allowed to work. Food is 3-4 points out of 5.

Clean, cool design, the staff is polite and courteous, the prices are above average. The spicy and memorable cocktail is really memorable... Absolutely. In the morning, I burned almost the entire tongue with very hot tea, and this cocktail (very much for an amateur) really spoiled my impression of the evening. My friend didn't like him either. They barely emptied the glass. it is sad that the waiters do not warn about its contents. After all, someone may have an allergy, and a person may start to suffocate. "Spicy" obviously does not imply pepper.

the establishment attracts only by its location. the waiters respond rudely, confuse drinks, can't even suggest anything. the dishes themselves also leave much to be desired. the banal caesar and steak that we waited 50 minutes for were nothing. in general, we will not come to this institution anymore. 3 stars only for the unusual design of the toilet and delicious tea)

Ask the waiter, there are dishes a little "near the menu", they try to please every customer! I've been here many times, never upset, keep the brand! The waiters are sweet: attentive and polite.

We came to the institution with a friend on Thursday. The staff didn't even say hello, neither the waiters nor the bartenders. The place was practically empty. Without asking how long we planned to stay, they said that the left wing of the parking lot was all occupied. When asked where we can sit, the receptionist pointed her hand at the space "over there and there, you can go... "I didn't even sit at the table. We sat at the window behind high chairs, it turned out to be very uncomfortable, because there was nowhere to put the bag. They asked for a transplant. As a result, in a rather aggressive form, the girl said again, "over there at the table and in another room, they say, go wherever you want. We went to the hall to the right. It turned out to be cold (like a summer hall), they did not warn about it. But since we have already ordered drinks, we decided to wait for them. The menu was initially brought, but after we moved, the menu was never provided to us, although we wanted to make an order and eat. The impression left by the establishment was disgusting. I would like the staff to be more polite and considerate to their visitors.

The place is not bad, the verandas resemble Amsterdam. The spirit of Europe is felt, it is quietly pleasant. The kitchen is average, it is necessary to tighten up, there are shortcomings. They may miss the shell from the mussel.. Or a bone, but it's more of a flaw. The service staff are great, they have something that, unfortunately, they are losing in Russia. A good place for the evening.

An unusual atmospheric interior. You can take unusual photos. Prices are the same as everywhere else: high for mediocre dishes. You can smoke inside, which is a minus for me. The seating area is poorly designed: the interior is not visible on the sofas, the tables are on the passage to the kitchen. The second room has dry air. It is best to sit on bar stools, but there is often smoking nearby. Usually the mulled wine was delicious, but last time it was brought sour and without spices inside.
