Rozengrāls
An ancient wine cellar documented since 1293, offering a candlelit medieval-themed dining experience where the atmosphere outshines the food.
Located at 1 Rozena Street in the Old Town, the restaurant claims this site was recorded in 1293 as the oldest wine cellar and banquet hall of the Riga City Council. The main hall features a 4-meter-high vaulted ceiling, an ancient underground well, and remnants of the 1201 city wall. The interior is lit only by candles, staff wear historical costumes, and medieval music is played on some nights. The dishes are based on ancient banquet recipes, including rabbit stew, roasted leg of lamb, and honey beer. While the atmosphere receives unanimous praise, reviews on food and service are mixed. Salads are about 13–14 EUR. Booking in advance is recommended, and it is within walking distance from various attractions in the Old Town.
