Telegraph is a great restaurant of Baltic cuisine located in a former German post office and telegraph building. The interior is authentic and it is a must-visit for tourists in Zelenogradsk. The food is excellent, with a delicious stroganina from pelamid, superb som with zucchini, a variety of Baltic snacks, great desserts and coffee. The waiters are knowledgeable and can explain how to eat certain dishes. Reservations should be made in advance. You can even send a souvenir postcard home from the bar.

The building itself is very beautiful and has a retro atmosphere, with many objects related to the restaurant's name. However, seating is limited and during peak season it is advisable to book in advance to avoid long waiting times. The menu is small but varied, although prices are slightly higher due to its location. In general, I recommend visiting Telegraph, especially for their delicious fish dishes. The marcipan liqueur as a dessert or aperitif is also wonderful.

The future jewel of the Baltic coast is the amazing architectural ensemble on the shore of the Baltic Sea, which harmoniously blends into the natural landscape of the eastern Prussian white sand beach and forests, untouched by construction of very beautiful houses. We were lucky to have a rest in this wonderful resort - Residence!

We visited Telegraph three times in three days. In short, the restaurant concept is great, the food is delicious, but the service could be better. In detail, we really liked the food, the menu was well thought out - nothing extra, everything was very tasty. I recommend trying the marble beef tartare and eggplant in sauce. We also really liked the non-alcoholic cocktail - Bloody Mary. It was just what you need in the heat - cold tomato juice with pepper.

However, there are some drawbacks - the service was very disappointing. We ordered a non-alcoholic Bloody Mary for two days in a row and it was very tasty. We came for the third time before leaving Zelenograd and ordered our favorite cocktail, the girl brought us drinks. We try - not that, here is a completely different cocktail. Almost no taste, tomato juice not like that. We called the waiter, she was surprised, took the bartender, came back with the answer that nothing had changed and this was the same classic Bloody Mary. As a result, it turned out that they brought us an alcoholic cocktail instead of a non-alcoholic one that we ordered. But the waiter flatly refused to admit her mistake, arguing that we had not listened carefully to the order repeat and had not interpreted "classic Bloody Mary" as "alcoholic Bloody Mary". She was not even worried that we were both driving and such a mistake could lead to worse consequences. Unfortunately, the situation was simply ignored, although a simple "sorry" would have been enough.

Inside you are immediately greeted by a welcome area with beautiful installations. However, there are no seats, the staff advises you to book in advance and leave your phone number just in case, because it is likely that a table will become available soon. That’s what we do, but we take the knowledge into account - to get into this restaurant, it is better to make a reservation in advance. We leave, but literally ten minutes later they call us back and invite us to visit. The place impresses with its atmosphere. We were here in the evening in the dark, the light inside was very dim, which was even disturbing, in my opinion. I admit that the lighting could have been better. The zoning was not bad, but there was a feeling that the tables were too close, especially considering that they were all occupied. It was somewhat uncomfortable, but that's to everyone's taste. The menu is not very varied, but there are a variety of drinks, including alcoholic ones, meat, fish, soups, and side dishes. The prices match the establishment - but the portions are large and tasty. They cooked quite well in time. Probably about 30 minutes. However, the wait was worth it. I really liked the selected dishes. The child will be offered a standard treat, and then advised to go to a small children's room if desired. Comfortable. If we talk about the restaurant itself, it is located in the building of the former German telegraph and post office built in 1896. The polite waitress said that the credo of the establishment is to combine the culture, life and treats of the peoples of these lands of the past with the present. It is on this principle that the restaurant menu is built. This is a reflection of the peoples who lived and live by the sea, and the restaurant itself “speaks” to guests about love and mutual respect for the history of this region. It was interesting to hear such a concept. Overall I liked the place. Good cuisine, delicious dishes and drinks, courteous staff, beautiful, albeit overly dark, atmosphere. Everything inside is done nicely. A little mixed feelings due to the slightly uncomfortable atmosphere, but otherwise everything is top notch. That's why I give it the maximum score.
