Restaurant Name: Avilio terasa
It was getting dark before 10 p.m. when we started to look for a place to eat something light and to taste Lithuanian beer somewhere in the old town.
We got to outdoor but roofed terrace/patio of Avilio terasa restaurant/bar, on my picture. There were a few costumers there (exclusively Lithuanians) which I found unique in generally empty town at that time. It was nice and cosy atmosphere there. Service was OK, credit cards were accepted.
HOURSDaily 10.00 am - 10.00 pm.
Favorite Dish: We enjoyed Lithuanian crepes, blackberries cake and tasted Avilys beer brewed in mini-brewery located in cellars of nearby Avilys restaurant (Vilniaus gatve 34). Except various desserts, crepes and beer they offered other drinks incl. wine and three kinds of soups:
- cold red beet soup - 5.00 Lt,
- spicy soup - 6.50 Lt,
- sweet beer soup, for adults only - 7.00 Lt.

Restaurant Name: Avilio terasa
This was two in one: a restaurant (with limited choice of food) and a bar which served limited choice of beer, wine and other drinks.
Except of local beer Avilys they served:
- juice and ice-cream coctail (6.00 Lt),
- milk shakes (strawberries, peaches, vanilla - 7.00 Lt),
- Martini (rosso or bianco - 7.00 Lt for 100 ml),
- a few kinds of French wines (7.00 Lt for 150 ml or 50-60 Lt for a bottle),
- hot wine (5.00 Lt for 150 ml),
- hot beer grog (8.00 Lt for 0.5 l or 4.00 Lt for 250 ml).
Favorite Dish: We ordered two Avilys beers brewed in mini-brewery located in cellars of nearby Avilys restaurant (Vilniaus gatve 34):1. Avilio alaus (Avilys light beer) - 5.00 Lt (€ 1.5; US$ 1.83; 7.00 Polish zl) for 500 ml or 2.50 lt for 250 ml
My opinion: malt-accented pale lager clean and easy to drink in quantity :-). Sweetish aroma and taste with honey and almond notes. Very different (that's why it's a must) although not my favourite. 2. Medaus alus (Avilys honey beer) - 0.5 lt more expensive than the above.
My opinion: Avilys Avilio brewed with honey, industrial-grade honey note, not my favourite.

Restaurant Name: Avilio terasa
The restaurant, located out-door but roofed, offered Lithuanian crepes (krepai) with:
1. vegetables and sauce of broccoli - 6.00 Lt,
2. fruits and sauce of berries - 7.00 Lt,
3. cheese - 7.00 Lt,
4. chicken and sauce of mushrooms - 7.00 lt,
5. salmon and red caviar - 17.00 lt.
Salmon and caviar, as I noticed, was always expensive in Lithuania and not only there :-(. Anyway, I think that Lithuanian crepes is a must to taste in Lithuania.
Favorite Dish: I ordered crepes with fruits and sauce of berries for 7.00 Lt (€ 2.11 ;US$ 2.55; 9.80 Polish zl) and they tasted delicious. It's my recommendation :-)

Restaurant Name: Senieji Rusiai restoranas
They served different food from local to international (French, Italian) cuisine. Prices varied from, say 3.50 - 6.50 Lt for a soup to over 30.00 Lt for the most expensive meat dishes, rather expensive as for Lithuania. I enjoyed my company (matcrazy0 :-), Svyturys beer and live music there. More in my nightlife tips.
Our waiter could speak English. He was serious and fast. They accepted credit cards at least of Visa and Eurocard/Mastercard system.
Favorite Dish: Excuse, I didn't eat there but I enjoyed the place, music live and Svyturys (my recommendation) and Utenos beer. There was good choice of French, Portuguese, Spanish, Italian and American wines.

Restaurant Name: Minotel Hotel
I ate surprisingly good breakfast at my Minotel Hotel - everything was fresh and of good quality. It was served in hotel bar/restaurant which was open 7.00 am - 11.00 pm and offered quite good choice of Lithuanian and various international cousine (meat and seafood especially). Breakfast was served 7.00 am - 10.00 am, on Sunday 8.00 am - 10.00 am.
Favorite Dish: At first sight it was nothing special just casual breakfast buffet of buns, eggs, fruit, jam, ham, coffee and tea etc. I liked especially Lithuanian dark bread, sweet buns and the only one kind of soft cheese.
