Chef's Corner Restaurant & Bar

In Riga’s elegant Silent Centre, Chef’s Corner thrives on the synergy between chef Reinis Strazdiņš and sommelier Elviss Niklass. Reinis’s masterful creations – especially the standout beef – together with the warmth of the team create a welcoming atmosphere and lasting impressions, felt in every smile a dish or glass of wine inspires.

From the finest cuts of steak to house-made sauces and fresh sides – while behind the bar, Reinis Mardekajs channels inspiration from the world’s Top 50 bars into cocktails with a modern twist. His handmade ingredients and award-winning recipes turn every drink into a journey of flavor.

The result? A dynamic space that blends the sophistication of a steakhouse with the vibrant energy of a bar – a place where food, drinks, and atmosphere come together seamlessly.

Chef’s Corner recommends: Wine: Mario Costa Cianin da Stiva Nebbiolo d'Alba Superiore DOC, Italy, 2020. Cocktail: ‘Yerevan Market’ – a sweet and sour mix of Ararat apricot brandy, peach juice, roasted almond liqueur, and Italian aperitivo bitterness.

Our choice: Chef’s Corner boasts an outstanding cocktail list, so we’d start the evening with something as glamorous as French 75 (a Champagne-based cocktail), and then sit back and enjoy a bottle of legendary white Rioja – 2012 López de Heredia Tondonia Reserva!
