Panorama Restaurant Bar - Riga

Restaurant Panorama is located in hotel Radisson Blu Daugava and has some nice views over the river of Riga. Restaurant itself is on the ground floor (you will also have breakfast there if you stay in the hotel) and I really would take the name of Panorama with a grain of salt. I went to have dinner there and first thing I noticed was that it was quite dim there (except far back you had more light). There were few people there and I sat on a quite nice and convenient sofa chair. As I was not very hungry I decided to stick with two courses and I am happy I did that. Partly because of the prices and partly because of the food itself. I started with Salmon tartar. Dish itself looked nice but it was hardly seasoned. Luckily there were salt and pepper mills on the table to tune it, but even that helped only so so. Overall 5/10 Main course was chicken curry. I expected nice and tender chicken with lots of spices but I was disappointed once more. Chicken was overcooked and there were practically no spices in a curry! Again I had to tune it myself as much as possible. I even go to the length of saying that it was worse out of two and it was 15 €!! 3/10 from me. Service was OK, nothing special and nothing to complaint 6/10. Atmosphere itself well it was too dark there and place itself would need some renovations 5/10. Problem is that when you stay at Radisson Blu Daugava you have practically few options to dine. Either take a taxi to the old town or eat at Panorama there is nothing really close to walk by. To summarize Panorama will get 4/10 for food, 5/10 for atmosphere and 6/10 for service, giving it a mere 15/10 overall. I would usually sum it up to be 3 star overall review but I just can`t do it as food was really poor and pricey! P.S. There is also a cake area, but I did only see few cakes to choose from.

The wine list is decent especially on the white side and the starters are well made, my medium-rare ribeye was unfortunately well-done and the potatoes could use some salt. At a cheaper place this would have been a solid four especially with the great service from Igors the waiter.

Everything was amazing!!! Love it!! Delicious!! The service was great!!! Special thank you to Lolla! Will definitely come back!!! See you soon!

I was very tired after one long business day and decided to eat in the hotel. And the Panorama restaurant is located exactly inside the Radisson Blu Daugava. The place is just average, nothing special. Even the so claimed beautiful view is not so exciting as the restaurant it is at street level and you cannot see too much. The food was indeed very good. I had a nice pumpkin soup and rabbit with vegetables. Very delicious. Even the beer that the waiter suggested was nice. And the service was friendly, police and warm. So I was happy with my choice and the overall dinner. Prices are very acceptable.

We stayed at the hotel and ordered food to the room. It came very quickly, was very tasty and the hamburgers were huge. Good value for money!!
