Yandex recommended it as the best restaurant in the city. First of all, the advantages are the location, the general appearance, external and internal, a very customer-oriented administrator, in fact, it was only thanks to him that I had good impressions. Cons: the menu was completely vague, the additional menu was just supposed to cover the need for local cuisine, but... I'll start with the fact that the restaurant was 35% full and the dishes were served for a very long time, and each time it took 2-3 minutes… The waiter does not understand the gram of the dishes, when asked about draniki with morels, this is really so, yes, she eventually answered the question, and where the mushrooms are, it turns out - it's just a powder that doesn't feel at all... well, there are a lot of "jambs" in the fact of the dishes (mixed up, half-cooked, tasteless) ...honestly, I was shocked, I set the 4ku (although everyone asked me not to write and set the 5ku) only because of the administrator For the future, make the menu in accordance with the name, interesting, multidirectional like continents and teach the waiters to be more creative when asked if you can have black tea with mint, bring mint, and not say that it does not exist, and then find large mint inflorescences in the cheesecakes and add them to black tea themselves.…

Good afternoon. 🌹. During the 4 days of our stay in Brest, we visited more than one institution in the city. "Jules Verne" is in the first place from the atmosphere to the menu. The ordered dishes did not disappoint. The portions and the quality of the dishes are wonderful (stroganina, seafood soup, wild mushroom soup, meat on the bone, duck legs with pears, dessert). We have met our expectations. The menu was studied in advance. Level service. We would have come again, definitely, yes. Good luck and good customers to this establishment.

It's a nice place, the interior is clean, textured, cozy, the staff is friendly, the service is fast, but you can work on the design, I would have given 4 stars, but when ordering a steak of medium-rare marbled beef, they just brought a piece of meat with a piece of inedible fat and veins (what???? Is it marbled beef?????) in short, the steak is full G, and the rest of the dishes are generally at a good level of quality, served with soul and love.

It's a pity to write a negative review, because the restaurant is really beautiful, the service is beyond praise, but the food is just terrible. We took Thai spicy soup, just water with soy sauce and hot pepper. Dumplings with potatoes and chanterelles were fried until crisp for some reason. At least the menu says they're fried, but they don't eat all that stuff. The zucchini fritters tasted like rotten meat, I didn't understand if it was greens or turkey on top.

On the advice of friends, we decided to come here as "one of the best restaurants in Brest" and we were not mistaken! The service is 5+, the location is convenient, the interior is interesting, the dishes are very tasty, minus tomatoes - inside they are green (sliced in a children's dish) and sour, which gave excessive acid in the pasta. We ordered "Golden Chicken" and baby pasta Carbonara for the children - both dishes are very tasty, the children ate everything. Beef tartare, in my opinion, was not enough capers, herring with potatoes and gnocchi with beef - the tongue can be ironed. Class 👍 Staff service deserves commendation. The prices are surprisingly lower than in Minsk - in the capital, I would give half or two times more for the same dinner. In short, I'll be back in Brest - I'll definitely come here.

Jules Verne is a different story) A place in the heart of Brest, in the center, but quiet) Located in a historic mansion, one of the oldest restaurants, classic, with a chic leather and wooden interior in dark tones of marsh green and wenge, boiling white tablecloths and a Baker set against the background... It is impossible to come up with a different harmony, the classics are at their highest) They cook to match, exclusively) a dish at random from the menu, the waiters' advice, and you're happy) The staff is worth noting separately, they are incredibly attentive, tactfully and unobtrusively involved in everything, while not noticeably, at the right moment, they are sympathetic if necessary) they knocked over a glass of tincture, immediately offered a new table, we refused, we didn't want to strain, anyway we covered it with a cloth so as not to embarrass, nice) I recommend trying different tinctures) They cook amazing, hot, snacks, ossobuco mmmmm))) We were 100% impressed!

Excellent service, good interior. The kitchen is ordinary. Ordered bl Tuesday. The soup is a bit simple. In the second, the fish is heavily interrupted by tomato sauce, which tastes like a winter salad like lecho. Very tasty, but solo. The fish gets lost with it. The salad is good. It's very tasty, dessert too.

I'm a dubious restaurant critic and I don't really like writing reviews, BUT I left my five stars and a piece of my heart here - 📍 "Jules Verne", Gogol St. 29 I don't believe you can find a more pleasant place in Brest. we went to lunch with a skeptical attitude - we came out completely delighted and confident that we would return here at least once more. After 4 hours we came for dinner, and after another 14 hours we came for breakfast. Honestly, this is the rarest case when the result for the query "the best restaurant in the city" coincided with reality. the dishes (we fell in love with desserts in general), the service, the location - everything is perfect.

The impressions are twofold. We came because of the high rating and the advice of the locals. I really liked the interior, the atmospheric place. The food is delicious, although the serving itself is not impressive. There is no service. The waiter does not come up for a long time, does not look at the guests. We waited longer for the waiter than for the dishes themselves.

We were in Brest for a couple of days and stopped here a couple of times for breakfast. •Milk porridge is porridge soaked in milk, a very controversial dish, the child refused to eat it. • We ordered cheesecakes, they are served here as one large platter, and berries are inside (the first time we were given mangoes, blueberries, strawberries; and the second time there were some leftovers from either fruit juice or compote - so I advise you to check with the waiter what you should expect) • spinach leaves are poorly washed (if you even bothered to wash it) •the dumplings are quite tasty • serving an omelet with slices of salmon without imagination . Of course, I would like to see an omelet juicy and lush, and not a dry envelope with tears in the form of salmon. The salmon cheesecake was ordered by a child and it was extremely unfortunate . The serving is also controversial, moreover, there is some kind of sauce that tastes quite spicy (I tried it personally, it vaguely resembled adjika), although the waiter did not confirm my assumptions. •the establishment is not dog friendly (like the vast majority of establishments in the city) I liked the interior, the friendly hostess, the canaries, the veranda on the top floor is a great bonus. Otherwise, we are unlikely to advise our friends , and we ourselves will not look a third time .

I don't even know where to start! We arrived in Brest and at the last moment we started thinking about where to go and have a delicious meal). The choice fell on the rating right here! I'll tell you right away, there was nothing to betray! There were three of us, you tried almost a third of the menu) Cold and hot snacks are not just on high, but in the sky)) Photo below). It gets hotter, again without a hitch! Beef steak can compete with the loudest establishments in Minsk) In general, there are no questions about food at all, Minsk institutions definitely need to learn from you) More further) dessert, you killed us with Napoleon) the best Napoleon I've tried!! And stop)) that's not all) Kristina, who served us, is just a wonderful girl! I did everything to make us feel comfortable!! She is a professional in her field!! And the result: I will come here again!!! And to all those who have come to Brest and are thinking where to go, let's go here and not even think!)

I really regret that we went to a restaurant that I liked a couple of years ago with its interiors and service. Alas, the barista was rude, laughing that you can make a hot bumble by heating the juice in the microwave. This is rudeness, not even covered up by tone. The tea arrived 15 minutes before the meal, and it was boiling for about ten minutes before serving. The potatoes, wonderfully cooked, are suddenly sprinkled with ordinary black pepper and filled with an incomprehensible sauce that does not match the meat. Gnocchi were served with veal, in a vein of bark, I did not even imagine that such meat could be served in a restaurant. I really regret that I came in and ruined an old impression. I strongly advise against it

We visited this restaurant on the evening of 05/10/2025, we were lucky, we found an empty table, but of course it's better to book in advance. We had dinner together on the 2nd floor, clean, beautiful decoration, fast service, courteous staff, paid with a MIR card. The main thing is that the food is delicious, the portions are large, and it's not cheap, but the dinner was worth the money. My son liked the stewed ribs very much, I liked the borscht.

The restaurant "Jules Verne" is rightfully included in the top of the best restaurants in Brest. The dishes are amazing! The real pleasure is the restaurant's own baking (an ordinary bread basket is just a gastronomic miracle). Hot dishes are also on the same level. Filet mignon and burgers are beyond praise (the burger buns are baked by themselves). The service is as friendly, delicate and pleasant as possible. The overall impression is definitely positive. After an eventful cultural and sightseeing tour of Brest, a visit to "Jules Verne" will be a wonderful end to the evening. In general, I definitely recommend the restaurant "Jules Verne".

The bathroom is clean. The staff is polite. The waiters are men. What the management should work on: dishes are served as they are ready, because of this, one eats, while others watch and drool.

Hearing from the bartender that he would heat the juice in the microwave killed all the desire to order coffee. Not to mention the desire to leave this "imposing" corner. I won't come here a second time. Veal steaks are not recommended. Meat with veins is worthy only if you have a strong jaw. But one compliment to tea in the presence of two tea drinkers is a bomb! The argument is even steeper: one kettle is one cracker. Beyond all praise! There are no complaints about the cracker, it is hard as granite: it has clearly survived more than one generation of bartenders.

We were passing through the city, went to a restaurant after reading the reviews. The restaurant is not big, all tables are booked. They found us a table, limiting the time of stay. But we fit in quite well. Why I took off the stars:. 1. The menu is very small. I chose cachucco soup. A recipe in a local way). Seafood consists of one shrimp and several mussels. The soup should have been thick, but there was essentially only one broth. Instead of toasted croutons, dried lavash. 2. The service is slow. With a small number of guests and a fairly short menu, the soup was cooked for 15 minutes, and the salad in general for 40 minutes. The staff is smiling, but it's kind of strained.

But there is not a word on the website about the existence of a dress code in this institution. We were separated from the others like lepers. I didn't like the administrator's attitude at all.

The interior is not bad and the service is friendly, but there is a significant "BUT" - the food does not match the stated price tag. The only thing I liked about the place was the wine and dessert with chicory ice cream, the rest was mediocre. An author's kitchen that has forgotten that it is an author's kitchen) If you visit a restaurant once a year, perhaps you will be OK, for the rest of us, good advice is to look for a more interesting place so as not to be sad about the money you spent.

I bought into the 5.0 average score that this restaurant has here. I really shouldn't have. Clearly an implausible estimate. A table was booked for 19:30 on 06/21/2025. We arrived at exactly 19, we were accepted, seated, it's ok. We placed an order. And!!! Salads were brought to us half an hour after ordering. The so-called Greek salad is 100 grams of a certain fresh substance without a single admixture of any kind of salad (iceberg, leafy, etc.). Cheese product instead of cheese, cucumbers with a tender peel, tasteless tomatoes...In general, I recommend it.. remove from the menu or cook fully. The hot dishes were served an hour and a half after the order. The dishes themselves are acceptable, you can eat. There were no consequences after visiting this institution, and that's a good thing. We concluded that we should not look at these scores, but at the establishments live. Where the summer porches are packed, go there.
