The historical center of Baku reveals its tumultuous past, from its roots as a Persian capital, through its oil boom to its Soviet occupation. The old city is a maze of alleys, mosques, historic buildings and remnants of fortification, including the Palace of the Shirvanshahs and the Maiden Tower, now listed among UNESCO's World Heritage Sites. Much more than a historic site, the city hosts vibrant arts and cultural activities, as well as a bustling modern business sector.

Nice place, there are two Scalini restaurants in Baku. The one close to the Hyatt is my favourite, located in one of the old buildings erected after WWII and has lots of character, the roof still has a large ornate Soviet emblem. Food is always nice here and we had spaghetti and a roast duck. Bit expensive but great for special dinners and entertaining clients

CafeCity - a favorite place of trendy people, a place where it all meets: relaxed atmosphere, excellent mood, and culinary pleasure. Smooth transition of light and beige colors soften up the air. Ochre-milky walls and vanilla-gold-colored sofas harmonize with the main decor - CafeCity's unique pattern visible on all elements of the interior. We love every dish we prepare and love seeing our patrons' pleasure from the taste and presentation of the Megapolis of Taste, CafeCity's approach to presenting popular dishes from around the world. You can come to CafeCity for any occasion in any mood: enjoy time with friends, have a romantic date, relax with your family or discuss business with partners. Carefully selected music will surely complement your time with us.
Food is OK, but don’t expect any vegetarian/vegan options. The waiters sometimes can be rude and they expect literally anyone to speak Russian (like what the heck?) and they are inflexible about removing/adding ingredients to/from a meal. Prices are ok. Wouldn’t recommend.

At the most delectable Italian restaurant Baku has to offer, guests experience a catwalk of tastes from Parma and Milano and Fresco dining. The epitome of style, we offer contemporary Italian cuisine perfectly complemented by warm, luxurious interiors.
This Italian restaurant within the JW Marriott on the beautiful Caspian is a delicious hybrid of traditional Italian fare with fresh, healthy produce and seafood that is a Baku staple. Our team has dined here frequently and each time has been perfect. It is a relaxing, calm and upscale environment so in addition to business, it would be a wonderful date/romantic restaurant. Our server, Ruslan, took such good care of us. I highly recommend OroNero. My pictures are of the restaurant but also a few hotel/view pics so you can get a sense of the beauty.

The Azerbaijani restaurant consists of a large space perfectly suitable for dining with family, friends or business meetings as well as for bigger format events, such as birthday celebrations and a smaller private space for enjoying your meal in a smaller circle. Over the years Sumakh has become a place of gastronomic pilgrimage for famous artists, politicians and guests of the city. Exquisitely selected interior, reflecting old local traditions creates a unique atmosphere of comfort, while the menu presented from the most famous Chiefs deliver you the full flavor of Azerbaijani cuisine.
Great restaurant with a lot of dishes to choose from.
The value for the food is great and the portions are really nice too. I recommend this place for groups of 4 or more and order different orders so that each person gets a chance to taste more than one dish.
Khan kabab is highly recommended if you like to try something special

I had the traditional breakfast food of khash, boiled lamb trotters (legs) with mix-ins such as vinegar and garlic. We were brought here by our guide after we requested an authentic local breakfast. It fit our request perfectly.Thank you very much!

Open all day for breakfast, lunch and dinner, ZEST Lifestyle Cafe is a premium casual dining environment with the tables looking into the theatre of the open kitchen which provides a fantastic opportunity to discover lunch's and dinner's sanctum. Begin your day full of beans with coffee and freshly baked pastries take away passing by the cafe on your way to work.
Breakfast every morning as part of the room (third time here). Ravan took care of me most mornings with coffee on the table soon after I walked in. usually got omelets and fired eggs that were good. Also tried breakfast items that I usually don't have access to. I tried dinner a couple of time that were ok, but over priced for what it was.

Next to old city wall, Sehirli is very small place, only about six tables. No Reservations (although we were promised reservation). Menu is Azeri food and no alcohol. Chicken was very good, also salads. Service was friendly and relaxed. It felt more like hanging around in somebodys livingroom.

Great views of the city from the bar, especially at night. Not all of the staff spoke English so we had some communications issues. We had been given coupons for a free 360 cocktail but when we tried to use them they wanted to charge us at first. Another night we asked about 2 specials we had seen advertised on a flyer in our room. There was supposed to be a cheese plate and 2 glasses of wine special but the staff did not seem to know anything about it. Also Wednesday was ladies night and was supposed to be 50% off. We asked about it and somehow got 1 drink split in 2 glasses. Eventually we got in straightened out and got half off our bill. We usually had to wait awhile or go up to the bar to get our check.
