3 Pavaru Restorans

About

The 3 Pavaru Restaurant – officially called 3 chefs – is tucked into Riga’s historic Jacob’s Barracks, a charming yellow‑brick complex dating back to the late 18th century. Overlooking the city’s iconic Powder Tower and the romantic Swedish Gate, the venue marries old-world architecture with a bright, contemporary interior that feels both intimate and vibrant. Chef Pāvels Skopa, Fasts Sirmais and Eriks Dreibants – founders and creative minds behind the restaurant – curate a menu that showcases the very best of seasonal Latvian produce, blending modern techniques with local traditions. The tasting menu, priced at €99 for a six‑course journey, offers dishes such as lightly salted pike perch with dill emulsion, Arctic char, and a beet‑soup featuring wagyu. On‑demand a la carte options range from burrata to wild venison loin, all priced from €15. Beyond pure dining, 3 Pavaru hosts private events and interactive cooking classes. Groups can learn culinary skills under the chefs’ guidance in a “cooking together” session that lasts roughly three to four hours, with the price per person starting at €70. The restaurant also provides a full booking system, encouraging guests to reserve a table in advance, especially during peak times. The doors open daily from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m., with the final reservation slot at 8 p.m. and an extended bar that stays open until 1 a.m. on New‑Year’s Eve celebrations.
