ZORECVIT Restaurant, Ukraine

Zorecvit is a city restaurant where high-end cuisine meets urban rhythm. Located in a revitalized former auto mechanics factory, it blends contrasts—posh and raw, cracked and smooth, old and new, fast and slow. The interior reflects this philosophy, creating a dynamic yet intimate atmosphere.

The open kitchen is the heart of the space, a challenge transformed into an inviting experience with soft lighting, curated music, and natural wine. The layout includes flexible seating zones—two podium areas with modular tables for larger groups, a cozy kitchen-adjacent space hidden by plants, a tasting bar, and a striking red onyx cube. This cube, both an architectural statement and a gathering hub, anchors the design.

Behind it, a glowing wine cabinet highlights Zorecvit’s dedication to Ukrainian winemaking. The sleek stainless steel bar extends into a floating cabinet, redefining the classic contact bar. Wardrobes are designed like dry-aging refrigerators double as functional dividers, while a single expansive office station replaces traditional workstations.

Reclaimed materials shape the restaurant’s identity—century-old parquet with traces of its original orange paint, larch beams repurposed for the kitchen bar, and antique Austrian doors. This seamless fusion of history and modernity makes Zorecvit more than a restaurant—it’s an evolving story of contrast and craft.
