Multi-kilometer territories of Moscow rooftops are increasingly being mastered by the capital's restaurateurs, which cannot but please lovers of delicious food and quality rest somewhere higher. Especially in demand are open-air establishments in the summer, and this year it turned out to be hot. What kind of "heavenly" cafes and bars can Moscow please its residents and guests? A rooftop restaurant can be found today in almost every taste, color and size. The price tag also varies, but there are no frankly cheap establishments in this segment yet, but there are more than enough "defiantly" expensive ones. But this does not reduce the demand for them, and the number of visitors does not decrease, but only grows. What to do - Moscow loves a luxurious life. Our review will tell you where to find it.

Kalina bar: restaurant

Reviews about this place have not heard except lazy. Anyone who has visited it at least once will remember the impressions received here for a long time - a dizzying rise to the 21st floor in a glass high-speed elevator, an incredible view of Moscow (opening from a bird's eye view), an unsurpassed cuisine and an impressive map of alcoholic drinks. The general atmosphere and mood in Kalina Bar is refined classics and obsequious service during the day, drive and fun, feeling the pulse and energy of life at night. It is impossible to remain indifferent to this fashionable and truly lively institution. One of the best projects that Moscow can boast of this summer.

The rooftop restaurant is divided into several zones - the main hall with many comfortable sofas and stylish armchairs, an obligatory bar counter and a podium; karaoke zone; a Moroccan room with low sofas and lots of bright pillows; two open verandas and two VIP rooms for those who need privacy. The cuisine is a trendy mix of Italian, Japanese and truly Russian dishes in an unusual presentation and equally amazing performance. The menu is regularly updated and "transformed" - even regulars will not get bored. The price tag is also on top - the average bill is from 2.5 thousand rubles. But it's worth it.

White Rabbit Restaurant

Institution "under the dome" (as in the novel by Stephen King) in the truest sense of the word. The restaurant is located on the 16th floor of the "Smolensky Passage" under a glass domed roof, thanks to whichoffers a stunning panoramic view of the capital. A 360-degree view allows visitors to the White Rabbit to admire not only the Kremlin, but also the skyscrapers of Moscow City and the Foreign Ministry building. It is especially pleasant in this place to meet sunrises and see off sunsets - a spectacle of indescribable beauty. Late (or early) visitors are very pleased that they even offer you breakfast here at such hours (from three in the morning to six in the morning) when many other places are still "sleeping".

Russian cuisine deserves special attention from the famous chef Mukhin, who is well known to "gastronomic Moscow". The rooftop restaurant White Rabbit offers, of course, both French dishes and culinary hits from other countries. Exclusive alcoholic cocktails should not be ignored either. The interior is pleasing to the eye - nothing distracts from the most important thing - an excellent view of the capital in all its glory. It has everything to have a good time, eat delicious food and relax.

Loft: restaurant reviews

A completely different concept, interior and atmosphere is a tiny establishment located in the bay window of the shopping complex - "Loft". This is an open area-balcony with a bewitching view of the Lubyanka and at times a strong wind, impudently "walking" between the tables of guests. For this reason, the tablecloths here are fixed with clothespins, and it is better to follow napkins and papers on the table and press them with something heavy. However, this small inconvenience only adds to themore romantic and atmospheric place.

Comfortable soft armchairs and low leather sofas, tables with openwork legs, white tablecloths and a view of a continuous stream of cars - the interior and surrounding surroundings, according to visitors, are ideal for dates, but completely unsuitable for business negotiations. The cuisine is light and as he althy as possible, with lots of seafood, vegetables and herbs. Dishes - both Russian and international. There is a diet menu, author's desserts and even a five-hour tea. The perfect place for two.

Stork: restaurant

A three-story establishment that combines a classic restaurant, a trendy cafe and a veranda with an excellent view of Moscow streets and courtyards. The interior is thought out to the smallest detail so as to create a pleasant atmosphere of coziness, privacy and harmony with nature - wooden tables, wicker chairs, many bright flowers in pots and a terrace immersed in the greenery of elms and lindens. According to those who managed to visit this institution, nothing artificial, defiant and deliberately ostentatious. Quiet calm music, birds singing and aromas of flowers make you fall out of the bustle of the city for a moment.

Food fits the place. Restaurant "Aist" offers visitors a fundamental menu with dishes of Mediterranean, Italian, French cuisines, as well as an obligatory Japanese section. They cook here very soundly - just as much as you need, as if painstakingly measured and calculated in advance. The wine list pleasantly surprisespopular positions, as well as the products of little-known small wineries. Be sure to take a bottle with dinner. The average bill, however, is not so harmonious - about 3 thousand rubles.

Carlson Restaurant

And now let's rise again to the breathtaking height - to the 14th floor, to the restaurant on the roof of "Moscow City", with the telling name "Carlson". The interior itself already reminds us of some kind of Swedish fairy tale: white colors with bright accents in the form of checkered sofas, colorful plants and jars with the main character's favorite raspberry jam with a propeller. And when a waiter appears in cute pants with suspenders, then doubts about the fabulousness of the institution disappear. It is very interesting and home-like here, but also delicious and beautiful - this is how its regulars rate this restaurant.

The first reason why you should come here is the indescribable view of Zamoskvorechye - from Kotelnicheskaya embankment to the Kremlin. You will be offered to look at numerous sights for a delicious and hearty lunch or dinner from good Italian cuisine in its best traditions. Food, atmosphere, panorama - it is impossible to say that the main thing in a restaurant is. Everything here deserves attention. And the price tag is quite acceptable - 1500-1700 rubles an average bill.

La Terrasse Restaurant

An area the size of a small football field has been given over to a restaurant on the roof of Evropeisky, which is a summer playground with a light and unobtrusive interior, but elements of bourgeois luxury. Natural wicker furnitureadjoins here with chic chandeliers and huge plasma screens broadcasting fashion and sports content. The cuisine is declared as European fusion, seasoned with "oriental accents". This mix is not surprising, because the co-founder of the restaurant is none other than rapper Timati.

The chef offers exquisite and highly original dishes for sophisticated audiences. According to outdoor enthusiasts, the music and selection of drinks are on top here. They come here, rather, not for beautiful views, but for entertainment and fun. Party-goers here will feel at ease. If, of course, they can get in. There is face control at the entrance, and "auto-face control" at the parking lot, so come in a decent car. The average bill, as in most places, is about 2-2.5 thousand rubles.

Conclusion

The roofs of the capital are more and more actively used and rebuilt for restaurants and bars under the open (and not only) sky. You can easily find a place where you can relax and unwind in a pleasant environment, and a bar where you can easily recharge your batteries with fun and drive of the metropolitan party, and a classic restaurant for business negotiations in the summer season, and many other options. The only thing to be prepared for is the cost of the dishes. Moscow is Moscow, a rooftop restaurant here a priori has a higher price tag, and often especially careful face control (as in the case of La Terrasse).
