How to find out about the restaurant

The number of restaurants in Russia, as well as the number of people who regularly visit them, continues to increase. And in such a variety it can be quite difficult to choose a place where it is better to spend the evening. But with the advent of the Internet in almost every home, this problem is partially solved due to the fact that you can get information from those who have already been to this institution. So, how do you get information about the restaurant you are going to?

Instruction manual

If you do not know the address of the restaurant that you are going to visit, you can find it through the city directory of organizations. There is also an electronic directory DublGis, in which you can find not only the address of the organization, but the building itself on the map, as well as get directions to it by personal or public transport. Such maps are designed for several large cities, including Moscow, St. Petersburg and Novosibirsk. This reference map can be downloaded to a computer or used online on the DoubleGis website.

If you want to learn more about the menu and other features of the restaurant, you can either call the restaurant itself by phone and ask questions to the staff, or visit the restaurant in person. Also, these data can be obtained from specialized sites dedicated to restaurants, such as Restaurant.ru and Menu.ru. Enter the restaurant you are interested in in the search bar on these sites, select the city where it is located and, if the institution is in the database, you can find out the type of cuisine offered by the restaurant in the menu, opening hours, number of seats, availability of special services - organization of banquets, karaoke, hookah and more.

On the same sites, study visitor reviews. Not all of them can be reliable, but you can get some useful information for yourself.

You can also get useful information about the restaurant you are interested in on the city website. If there is a forum on the portal of your city, you will probably find there the section "How to spend the evening" or "Restaurants of the city". There, perhaps, there will be a discussion of the institution you are interested in with the opinions of visitors and, possibly, even the answers of the restaurant administration to various questions.

Also, for information, go to the website of the restaurant itself. A detailed menu can be posted there, also usually there you can find information about promotions and special offers. Valid for a limited time.
