Second time we come to Mosto in the last few months, this time for brunch- food was very good quality, well priced and served with attentive service. But mostly loved the eclectic 80’s throwback music of owner Alex....perfect way to spend a Saturday.
Mosto is one of our very favourite restaurants! The food is always delicious, interesting and high quality. The staff are friendly and helpful. The restaurant ambience is welcoming & warm with a great patio space! Mosto is our go-to place for date night.
The food does not match the prices. We had the “purple” asparagus (was not purple) which were good, but overpriced; a tuna dish that was just ok, a bit bland. Finally we had the half chicken which was pretty good. I do not recommend the...whiskey sour, it was not a whiskey sour.More
Mosto has always been a good restaurant to visit, but following the re-opening this summer, Chef Daniel’s new menu is a step up. Highly recommended for food, service and atmosphere.
Just yesterday we went to Mosto, because of multiple people telling us this is a must-go-to restaurant… The expectations were high, but it seemed as if we wouldn't be disappointed. We were seated outside, where we had a beautiful view and could enjoy a beautiful...summer evening. As a starter we had yellow fin tuna tartare, which was excellent. Our mains were pesto linguine and hand made seafood ravioli. Both dishes were beautifully presented. The ravioli were tasty and just as good as can be. The linguine were overcooked, which was a shame because the taste of the pesto, peppers and olives were great. Unfortunately, they seemed heavily overcooked (not only by a minute). I found it strange that all the complicated things were mastered to perfection, whereas the seemingly easy thing cost me a good dinner and them a 5 star review. In addition, I found that almost all cooked food in China is bland (as were the linguini). Chefs seem to be afraid of seasoning with salt and pepper. Of course those are the easy ones you can apply to your liking afterwards, but it would be nice to see them using at least some when cooking so that the flavors can expand during the cooking process.More
Living here in Beijing it’s hard to find consistently good foreign styled food...Mosto was always a go to place. Now after 12 years in business they have relaunched with a fantastic new look and menu. Everything has been taken to a new level, service, quality,...diversity really a first class experience. Dinner is really a fine dining experience, with European and South American influences. Brunch is fresh, tasty and really well priced. For any foreigners visiting Beijing I can assure you, you will not leave disappointed!!!!More
An excellent eating experience. Exotic menu, amazing food, beautiful deco and excellent customer service. My family and I loved it! Meals were delicious, they accommodated all our eating requests! Love everything about the place, location, food, service, and music! People were very friendly and helpful!
Had a great lunch here a few months ago. They really upped their lunch game. Great food and staff. The flavors just pop. Like they give you a wow factor for your tongue. Worth checking out!!
Cool restaurant in a nice setting, a good amount of choice of food and all really delicious. The cocktails are tasty as well. Beautiful crowd hanging out there!
I regularly have lunch or dinner at Mosto, be it with work contacts, friends or my family. I have never been disappointed. Nice outdoor seating, great value lunch menu (with delicious vegan options as well, that even convince non-vegans like me), relaxed atmosphere and always...good food. One of my favourites in Beijing!More
Been here a few times now, nice relaxed restaurant with good food and good service. Try meats platter - very nice!
I have been there several times, for dinner, lunch, brunch and only for drinks. Food was always great, my favourites dishes are the mushroom ravioli and the foie and saffron risotto. Service is good and the place is beautiful, comfortable and homie. It is one...of my favourites restaurants in Beijing, definitely on my top 3. Perfect to have a nice dinner and have some fun vibe for a cocktail after (cocktails are nice too!).More
After months of putting this off finally tried this place ! Food is good but really disappointed by the small portions ! Eggs Benedict need to have two muffins or pieces of bread ! Blue berry pancake means one pancake and minimal blue berries !...At 55 rmb per pan cake ! Cmon ! Really ? It’s only batter ! Thumbs down !More
We ended up there after the countdown as we were in Nali Patio and everywhere was packed except for this place, which I later understood why. After ordering our drinks, one barmen slipped his hand INSIDE his pants for a quick scratched then proceeded to prepare my friend's cocktail. We stopped...him immediately and asked another bartender to make it. The music was bad and the DJ kept on cutting song in the middle or stopping for mins while being visibly drunk, which I’m fine with since it’s NYE and we were there for one last drink anyway before heading home. That, until I made a remark on how bad the music was. The snowflake DJ from Colombia got so annoyed started being aggressive towards me and my wife, asking us to leave because he “says so”. Another guy appeared — I later learned he was the Venezuelan owner/chef named Daniel Urdaneta. One of his nostrils was runny and he was clearly acting like he’s on cocaine. It was disgusting to look at that while listening to him, let alone that he was high as a kite so whatever he was trying to say didn’t make any sense. He pushed his DJ back to prevent him from assaulting us, but seconds later, the cokehead turned and tried to attack me. All of that while my friends and I were calm and just trying to leave. He called two more Chinese guys dressed in black and a Hispanic-looking macho in order to intimidate us. They ended up holding him back as he was irritated by the fact that I remained calm and didn’t engage in anything. He was cussing at us in Spanish and trying to break free and reach me. The Hispanic bodyguard was trying to estimate the situation and figure out who’s at fault. It was clearly his boss, so he was apologizing to me while the mad owner screaming in the back. After telling them that I'm going to write a review, the DJ then came and apologized to me too, saying that me sitting on the table was the reason why he got mad, but also because I said “the music sucks”. I have never eaten there before and most probably will never step a foot in that shameful establishment again, but I’m just wondering from what I read about Mosto, how could a place like that survive for 10 years? Do people accept eating there knowing that their food is being prepared by a bunch of crotch-scratchers and junkies?!More
Had dinner and drinks with friends, what delicious food and great atmosphere! I really recommend the foie gras with risotto. Great wine selection. Will come back!
