If you’re looking to immerse yourself in the atmosphere of true Baku, experience warm Azerbaijani hospitality, and enjoy exquisite cuisine, "Ogni Baku" is the perfect place.

The first thing you notice is the authentic interior, transporting guests to the Baku of the Soviet era. The décor, featuring elements of the old city, traditional patterns, and warm tones, creates the feeling that you’ve stepped into a cozy Baku eatery from the past. Every detail is carefully thought out, capturing the history, traditions, and vibrant culture of Azerbaijan.

Of course, the real highlight is the food. The dishes are prepared according to traditional recipes, using fresh and high-quality ingredients. The kebabs, dolma, kutabs, saj dishes, piti—everything is served with attention to flavor and authenticity. The plov (pilaf) is especially remarkable—each grain of rice is perfectly cooked, fragrant, and full of rich taste. And don’t miss out on the aromatic tea with baklava—it’s an absolute delight!

Service at "Ogni Baku" is exceptional: the staff is welcoming, attentive, and happy to help you choose dishes, especially if you’re new to Azerbaijani cuisine.

This restaurant is a true gem for those who appreciate places with soul and character. It’s the kind of spot where you want to take your time, savor every bite, and soak in the nostalgic ambiance of old Baku. We’ll definitely be coming back!

The atmosphere was ok until the music started playing. The music was for a very old people which would ok if they would mix it with recent dancing music. The singing couple wanted money to get good music. Awful!
