Vilnius is home to a wide variety of cafés and restaurants serving all manner of international cuisines. Although Lithuania didn’t have much of a food scene 10 years ago, nowadays we’re quite active in making quality food and good service part of our daily lives. So far it has been a successful endeavour, and although we don’t have any Michelin stars yet, we’re getting there!
If you’re a typical culture digger, there are three things you must try during your stay: Lithuanian beer, garlic bread and “šaltibarščiai“ (cold beetroot soup). If you’re looking for more tips, ask a local or check out the restaurant and café reviews in this guide – we have plenty of cool recommendations.

Dedicated to the famous Belgian surrealist René Magritte, this quasi-Belgian, quasi-French place is just a little bit insane. Go ahead, draw on the tables, they won't mind. Superb food, Belgian beer and a brilliant wine list.

Restaurant is called under the name of it's owner and chef Gaspar Fernandes - Portuguese with roots from India, but spending most of his life in Great Britain.
Gaspar pays attention to every detail, and I'm not only talking about menu. His place is small, but super cozy, with hand made plates and carefully picked cutlery.

Pancho’s sofa is indeed the lounge of luscious laziness. Homestyle Mexican inspired food and fabulous fresh margaritas are served at this official Embassy of Tequila – there are only a few in Europe. Naturally the music, like the vibe and the edibles, is Latin.

It's a gastropub with a restaurant vibe. The interiors are interesting – don't ask for a menu, just look up and you'll see it written on the walls.

Their burgers are heavenly. I have no idea how they do it, but it’s definitely worth the effort. If you’re around on a weekend, you should try their brunch. Note that vegetarian burgers are also available.

The food has a distinct Indian influence and the courtyard is absolutely lovely. From time to time they also host D&B and jungle parties. It's worth mentioning that the service is a bit slow so don't expect to get your meal in 10 minutes.

You’ll have to do a bit of searching as this second floor restaurant is relatively well hidden. Once you find it you'll quickly discover it was well worth the search. Sleek design and fair prices make it a great place for an elegant dining experience that's easy on the wallet.

Besides the cosy location, the food served here is delicious. The blackboard menu in the greenhouse is constantly changing. Although it’s a very new place, the owners aren’t new to the industry, having run a popular restaurant in the Old Town for many years.

Although from the outside it looks a little bit upper class, the name translates roughly to "place for fleas". Once you step inside you’ll find classy old interior design that feels comfortable and chilled out, pleasant staff and European, Lithuanian, Japanese, Korean, Chinese and Thai cuisine. What a great selection!

Their “no shoes” policy will probably raise a few eyebrows but we suggest you just go along with it. It's situated right beneath a yoga studio should you be interested in a pre-meal workout!

Not being a vegan or vegetarian myself, I can surely say that this is one of those places that people still put love in the food and try to make the whole experience great for the visitor rather than just play by the 'eat, pay and get out' scenario. A must!

Come here to sample a huge range of local beers and wines from small producers. If you enjoy beer, this place is a must! They also own the restaurant Leičiai across the street – it’s a little bit fancy but not suit-worthy.
