About the restaurant

A corner styled like
a modern butchery

The kitchen is built around the product: its origin, its season and the right technique for it. Nothing on the menu is there by accident.

Chef's Corner opened in 2019 at the junction of two streets in the quiet centre of Riga. Cuts of beef and bottles of wine age in temperature controlled cabinets as part of the room. The menu runs from an extensive steak program to oysters, tartare and dishes from the field.

The bar

Cocktails, matched
to the chef

Driven by global trends gathered from exploring the World’s Top 50 Bars and refined through international competition as a Cucielo Vermouth 2023 Global Top 10 Finalist, our bar concept connects culinary thinking with modern mixology.

Recognized by the Baltic Wine & Drinks Awards, every drink is engineered to sit seamlessly alongside the kitchen’s flavor profiles—prioritizing sustainability, seasonality, and exact execution.
