IVANKA FISH RESTAURANT || Step Inside This Elevated Mediterranean Restaurant with Ocean-Themed Design Elements

Today, we're unveiling an exotic, Mediterranean-inspired gem that's recently made its mark in Moscow.

Nestled on the fourth floor of the prestigious Neva Towers complex, the Ivanka Fish Restaurant is the latest creation of acclaimed restaurateur Alexander Vorobyov. A gourmet known for his audacious culinary experimentation, Vorobyov aims to blend gastronomy with breathtaking design in this spectacular space.

A Splash of the Mediterranean

Unlike Vorobyov's previous ventures, which were lauded for their dynamic show programs, Ivanka Fish Restaurant has been envisioned as an innovation-focused establishment with a twist of the extraordinary. The guiding design principle? A Mediterranean motif infused with a creamy colour palette miming the outdoor tropical ambiance.

The walls, heated to an astonishing 50 degrees, not only mirror this tropical theme but add an unparalleled level of warmth to the overall atmosphere. To truly make you feel you're dining in a posh Mediterranean villa, the flooring has been embellished with luxurious terrazzo tiles laid in a unique pattern reminiscent of a high-end Hermes boutique.

Balancing Opulence with Simplicity

Despite the evident luxury, the restaurant's interior is incredibly welcoming and calming. What's the secret? A harmonious balance of opulence and simplicity, punctuated with playful, nautical-themed designer objects. As you enter, you're welcomed by an eye-catching glacier made of plaster blocks, housing an array of fresh seafood. From the whimsical oyster-shell-shaped installation at the bar to the 3D-printed sea knot suspended from the ceiling, every detail meticulously encapsulates the restaurant's marine theme.

Attention to Detail: Materials that EVOKE A SENSE OF Luxury

The Ivanka Fish Restaurant is a testament to the importance of details in interior design. The terrazzo floors flaunt a weave pattern, emulating an aspect of the iconic French fashion house. Luxury isn't spared when it comes to the use of exquisite marble, accentuating the long bar counter, fireplace, and even the sink in the bathroom. Moreover, the plaster on the walls is beautifully contrasted with warm honey-coloured anigre veneer panels, contributing to the overall design narrative.

Soaring ceilings with beautiful panelling in warm honey-coloured tones establish a welcoming and sophisticated dining space.

Custom-Crafted Furniture and Fixtures

Every piece of furniture here tells a unique story, each crafted based on the architects' sketches. Tables swathed in pristine white tablecloths are complemented by bespoke ceramics, elevating the overall dining experience. The restaurant’s ceiling is adorned with ethereal cloud lamps, crafted from non-woven textiles by Molo Design.

Design-Forward Bathrooms

The restaurant's bathrooms have been ingeniously transformed into selfie zones. Equipped with marble sinks, semi-circular arched mirrors, and walls adorned with gigantic lotus petals, these spaces offer a dreamy backdrop for those memorable selfies!

As we approach the warmth of summer, patrons can also relish the delectable seafood on the restaurant's terrace, making Ivanka Fish Restaurant a perfect destination irrespective of the season. Offering a unique amalgamation of culinary excellence and stunning design, it's the ideal spot to indulge in the finest seafood dishes and admire the meticulous interior design surrounding you.
