The menu of Pinch restaurant cannot be called large - there are only a few items in it, but each of them is original in its own way. It has only 6 options for snacks, the same number of main hot dishes, three types of first courses and the same number of desserts. However, due to such a small number of dishes offered, the skill of cooks in preparing each of them is honed to the ideal.

Of fish dishes, curry halibut with Brussels sprouts is very popular, of meat dishes - filet mignon with mini-potatoes, and of appetizers - Ricotta with corn and honey and ravioli with burrata, Beef Tartar, as well as cheese platter.
