Exceptional service, incredible food and stylish interior. One of the best restaurant we have visited! And do try the pineapple ravioli for dessert!

Recently I had a wonderful lunch at this restaurant. It was during the workday and there was only one more couple except us. The service was at the highest level: the waiter took off our clothes, offered the best table in a quite corner at the window, the menu was delivered in a second and as we were first time... More

Lovely concept. Allows you to try several small dishes and get familiar with different tastes. Away from all tourist trap restaurants which are overpriced, you find this classy restaurant a bit out of center. About 5 min by taxi. A tram stop is very close as well. I am local so I would reach the place by taxi.

I tried this restaurant at a short stay in Riga. The place is very nice and cozy, with stylish interior. The vine selection is great and the food is very delicious. Especially I can recommend the Beef Wellington and Beef Stroganoff, very very good. Excellent value for money

If you are looking for a variety of choices, for a place that is off the beaten path with good service and food that makes you ask for more, International is the place. The portions are on the small side but you have space for everything - starter, main course, dessert as well as magnificent Illy Cafe.

The food is very tasty. Portions are very small (which shall notify the waitress), but that is good because you can try a variety of food. But be warned it will not be cheap meal. I tried several dishes were all was perfect. Little disliked the salmon and tuna tartare, which lacked flavor... how can this be? - I do... More

Very elegant with perfect food. International is a perfect name for this restaurant. We recommend thst you take a taxi, because it is situated a bit outside the center ( there is a tram stop very near so it is possible to go by tram also)

Dear Guest, Thanks a lot for your positive review, it is highly appreciated! We are three minutes taxi drive from the city center and thanks for pointing out the tram option. It's tram 11 and it is 10-12 minutes drive from the city center. Best regards and we hope to see you again :) More
