SMOR BISTRO presents itself as a modern interpretation of a bistro — a place where an informal atmosphere is combined with a sophisticated approach to taste. It combines the rich traditions of French gastronomy with the restrained purity and precision of northern cuisine, creating a balanced, contemporary culinary experience.
The bistro concept is lived out here in its full essence — simplicity, quality, and elegance. The SMOR BISTRO menu is constantly evolving, as chef Kaspars Barsukovs creates new interpretations every day based on local and seasonal products. As a result, each visit is different — creative, surprising and rich in nuances that reveal the true character of the products.
SMOR BISTRO's quality is confirmed by international recognition — the restaurant has been awarded Bib Gourmand Michelin 2026 and received the Discovery of the Year award. These awards highlight the restaurant's ability to combine a high level of gastronomy with a warm, hospitable approach.
Every day in the SMOR kitchen is a new creative process. Chef Kaspars Barsukovs uses his confidence and refined taste to create dishes dominated by seasonal freshness, local character, and a harmonious balance of flavors. This is a kitchen where creativity goes hand in hand with respect for the product, and each dish becomes a story — about textures, sensations and emotions. The constantly changing menu makes each visit a personal and delicious adventure.
SMOR BISTRO is proud to be the ambassador of the prestigious Champagne de Venoge house in Latvia. This partnership enables guests to savour exquisite champagne that elegantly complements their meal and evokes a festive atmosphere in every glass. The restaurant's atmosphere and interior, created in collaboration with the design by OS, are an integral part of the experience. The Nordic aesthetic is revealed in the choice of materials — oak, stone, metal, velvet, textiles and sophisticated lighting — complemented by Danish-inspired warmth and tactile textures. Every detail has been carefully considered to create a cozy, elegant space where dining becomes a complete sensory experience.
