Tagine

Saratov

Saratov

Fish restaurant from the city on the Volga

Named after a city on the Volga river known for its fish, Saratov's decor echoes the 1990s, complete with matryoshka nesting dolls. Fish is the dish of the day here and you can get everything from the ubiquitous zander (720 rubles) to different types of carp (from 510 rubles) and even rare catfish (320 rubles per 100 grams) — which you can order either grilled or smoked.

Tagine

Moroccan paradise in the heart of the city

The name for both the ceramic pot and the trademark Moroccan dish made in it, Tagine is the latest project from the owners of the hugely popular Khachapuri chain. The menu provides for both veggies and meat lovers. There are four types of tagine to sample: chicken with pickled lemon, lamb with figs, fish with roast pepper and mixed vegetable (from 450 to 600 rubles).

One Pot

All-in-one dishes with an upscale flavor

As you might guess, One Pot serves Italian-inspired dishes in an elegantly arranged bowl. Order the handmade spinach and sun-dried tomato ravioli with a smoked cheese and mushroom sauce (350 rubles), then take advantage of the prime people-watching opportunities from their plant-filled patio. Sip sea buckthorn lemonade (250 rubles) and while away a hot afternoon.
