A Mixed Bag at KrêyZZi Kitchen in Yeysk
summarizeEditor's Summary
KrêyZZi Kitchen is a decent spot for dining in Yeysk, but it's got its flaws. The atmosphere and decor are pretty standard, but the staff is super friendly and accommodating. The menu's got a ton of options, and the food is tasty, but the portions can be small, and the salads are a bit of a letdown. We had to wait a while for our drinks, and the bathroom's not exactly welcoming. It's a solid choice, but don't expect to be blown away. If you're in the area, it's worth checking out, but don't get your hopes up.

Hello everyone!
When we're in Yeysk, we usually head to the same old restaurant that's been around for years.
We'd heard from locals that there's another one nearby that's worth checking out, so we decided to give it a shot. I went first to scope it out and grab some takeout, and the next time, the whole family came along.

Bathroom
To the right, just after entering

KrêyZZi Kitchen, EyskThe bathroom is free for cafe visitors, but 50 RUB for everyone else! As an alternative, they offer to buy a product worth this amount.
xa0
KrêyZZi Kitchen, EyskThis is the most expensive public toilet fee I've ever seen! It's really quite pricey!
From what I've observed, absolutely anyone can use this toilet for free, just by walking by. Honestly, it's unclear who's collecting this fee, and I doubt anyone has ever actually paid it.
Behind the door is a 'washing area'. There's a mirror along the wall, and three sinks on a nice countertop.
xa0
KrêyZZi Kitchen, EyskThe sinks are a bit high up, but there's a plastic step stool for kids.
All the necessary facilities are fully stocked and working properly.

After that, it's the cashier's turn. They ring you up in no time, and if you're feeling thirsty, you can even order a couple of cold beers to go. Our cashier added them to the bill and sent us off to the bar. My husband headed there while my kids and I sat down at a table.
By the way, the dining area has a microwave for public use and a few high chairs for kids.
They even had a little high chair ready for my youngest

Our Order
My husband came back with this little black signal device that was supposed to buzz when our drinks were ready.
We ordered for three people with hearty appetites:
xa0
KrëZZi Kitchen, YeiskPortions were generous. Two servings of roasted potatoes with mushrooms + chicken cutlet
xa0
KrëZZi Kitchen, YeiskMy daughter couldn't finish, but she's a little one, and my husband devoured the whole dish. However, he gave the brioche a thumbs down - completely flavorless, no salt or spices! The potatoes were cooked to perfection, though.
I thoroughly enjoyed the pasta. The creamy sauce and delicate salmon were a great combination
xa0
KrëZZi Kitchen, YeiskI didn't get a chance to take a photo of the quiche, only salads.
The vegetable salad was unremarkable, just a standard salad... I mean, the portion was a bit small, but it was perfect for my little one
xa0
KrëZZi Kitchen, YeiskHowever, the other two salads were cut in a haphazard way, with four slices of eggplant and the same number of tomatoes, plus a sprig of parsley.
xa0
KrayZZi Kitchen, Yeysk I have to say, the food was pretty good overall. My husband loves eggplant and all the salads with it.
My salad was cut into pretty big chunks, to be honest.
KrayZZi Kitchen, Yeysk I'm not complaining that a salad like that should be cut into cubes, but in this case, the cubes were just too big. The dressing was tasty, though.
After 15 minutes, when we'd all had a good fill, it became clear that our bartender was in no rush to refill our drinks...
My husband headed back to the bar, and I waited for him to come back with two beers in hand. Unfortunately... They didn't pour enough beer for two glasses. They offered us another option, which turned out to be too little as well! They suggested we wait a bit longer while they changed the keg. My husband said we'd already eaten and wanted to have a drink, so he declined and came back looking pretty grumpy
From this experience, I'd say that if you just want to quench your thirst or if you've been out and about the day before and want a cold beer with your meal, you might have some issues here.
On my first visit to KrayZZi Kitchen, I actually ordered takeout.
KrayZZi Kitchen, YeyskThey packed all the dishes neatly into containers and bags on top. And, by the way, those containers cost 20 rubles here.
Here's what the beef cutlets with veggies looked like
xa0
KrayZZi Kitchen, YeyskIt was quite a large serving, with zucchini and tomatoes, topped with cheese - it was really tasty.
Here's what I bought that time:
xa0
KrayZZi Kitchen, YeyskI wasn't a fan of the pilaf, though. It was meaty and fluffy, but there was just too much cumin for my taste...
There's also a Caesar salad with salmon for 228 rubles, but the portion with goulash bread, which is half of the serving, is just a few crackers - I mean, it's not worth it! The same story with the tomato soup for 398 rubles...
xa0
The Verdict
I have mixed feelings about this place... They serve good food, but it's pricey. The salads have ridiculously small portions... And with alcohol, it's just unpredictable!
We haven't been back to this restaurant since, and we still go to our favorite cafeteria.

Unfortunately, I wouldn't recommend the KrayZZi Kitchen in Yeysk.
Thanks for reading!
