Kalvarijų 1 H-3, Kalvarijų 1, tel. (+370) 671 786 76.<br />
Sadly no longer possessing their rather splendid outdoor<br />
terrace, Kalvarijų 1 is still worth a visit if only for the unusually<br />
friendly staff. Touting itself as an international restaurant,<br />
the place is more than a place to dine in, although the food<br />
is definitely worth further investigation. This is also a fine<br />
spot for a few drinks in the evening, attracting an interesting<br />
mix of locals who, at least judging from our visits, tend<br />
to be a little more lively than the usual Vilnius restaurant<br />
goer. A good option if you find yourself on the north side<br />
of the river. QOpen 10:00 - 17:00. Closed Sat, Sun. 24Lt.<br />
TAESW<br />
Kitchen C-3, Didžioji 11, tel. (+370) 5 231 38 84. An<br />
angular experience with plenty of creamy shades and exposed<br />
wooden features, this simple offering not only keeps<br />
the décor to a minimum but also doesn’t get carried away<br />
with the menu. The recommended dishes on offer include<br />
a recently eaten plate of miniature fishcakes that despite<br />
their laughable size tasted superb. There’s an extensive<br />
wine list too. A good choice for those wanting to impress<br />
without breaking the bank. QOpen 11:30 - 24:00. Closed<br />
Sun, Mon June - August. 24Lt. PTJASW<br />
La Pergola B-5, Ligoninės 7, tel. (+370) 5 266 03 22.<br />
White tablecloth gourmet dining in sumptuous surroundings<br />
inside the Grotthuss hotel, or, during the warmer months,<br />
on their lovely terrace just off a quiet street in the heart of<br />
Old Town. The menu of international dishes includes plenty<br />
of options to keep everybody happy, and is accompanied<br />
by an equally admirable wine list. QOpen 17:00 - 23:00.<br />
