Luxury in the centre of Riga.

Very good selection of high end shops, restaurants, bars and cafes surrounding the 5* Hotel Bergs and its cobbled courtyard.

Locally made art's and crafts. A bit overpriced though.

Nice place with great and quiet athmosphere in the center of the town. Several great spots to have a lunch, dinner or a glass of local beers.

Nice bazaar that you can visit to find some nice local souvenirs. There are also fresh sallad and food and possibility to eat

Wallpaper Guide recommendation. And good design for it. The place has quality aspirations and the menu is inspired, if short. The tapas are not expensive but a little bland and lacking in flavour.

What really propels me to review and downgrade is the upselling that I found more the rule than the exception in Riga restaurants. It is like the majority of waiters have been schooled at McDonalds (would you like that king size? With extra fries? With a sunday ice?). It culminated here. For starters the waiter encouraged us to order more than we did. What we ordered however proved very filling. When we turned down suggestions of dessert for that reason, dessert was continously encouraged. But no means no. This is all innoncent if misguided. Worse was that having ordered and confirmed a second glass of the same red wine, the waiter swung by as I was half way through my second glass and topped me up without a nod or confirmation. I dulu thanked him just to find the third glass on the bill in full. This is poor form and obviously so. I normally dont mind taking this kind of conversation but in this place it was so overt and such a gap to its ambitions and pretensions that I just wanted to leave, made a note to post review and then thats that. Not recommended

(Oh yeah, and the "Democratic" in the restaurant name Democratic Garage something something is supposed to mean friendly prices, down-to-earth, value)
