Reviews
“Pitcher” is a restaurant on Anokhin, reviews of which are mostly positive, leaves a good impression on most visitors. Guests praise everything: from delicious dishes to good musical accompaniment. The interior and cozy atmosphere of the Pitcher attract more and more new customers.
Guests with children are very pleased with the service. In the hall there are always animators who easily find a common language with the kids. Therefore, while the parents go about their business, the kids do not get bored.
However, a lot of complaints are caused by the staff of the institution, in particular the waiters. Their unfriendliness and strictly dosed communication with customers destroy the homely and laid-back atmosphere that the owners of the establishment were eager to create.
Displeased visitors to cafes and karaoke. In order not to hear the heart-rending cries of tipsy “singers”, many guests are forced to move to the summer veranda.
