A tiny, family-run Old Town spot on Bokšto street, loved for feather-light thin-crust pizza, well-made tartars and an intimate, jazz-soundtracked room.

The short version

✓An intimate, family-run room in the Old Town with a personal, often owner-led welcome.
✓Known for unusually thin-crust pizza diners describe as 'light as a feather'.
✓Tartars are a signature — beef, salmon and deer versions all draw praise.
✓A quiet jazz soundtrack and a handful of tables make it a place to book ahead.

A pocket-sized Old Town favourite

No.1 Bokšto sits at Bokšto g. 1 in the southern reaches of the Old Town, a few minutes' walk from the Gate of Dawn. It is genuinely small — a cosy, family-run room where the owner is often the one greeting you and bringing your plates — and that intimacy is the point. A low-key jazz soundtrack and warm, personal service give it the feel of eating in someone's front room rather than a restaurant.

The kitchen keeps its menu focused, built around a handful of things it does very well. The signature is a thin-crust pizza that regulars describe as 'light as a feather', alongside a rotating line-up of tartars — beef, salmon and deer among them — plus carpaccio and shrimp. If the ox cheek is on, it is a frequently recommended order. Complimentary water is a small but typical touch of the place's hospitality.

Good to know

Because the dining room only holds a few tables, booking ahead — or at least calling before you walk over — is strongly worth it, especially in the evening. This is a destination for a relaxed, unhurried meal rather than a quick bite. Opening hours and the current menu shift seasonally, so confirm them on the restaurant's own channels before you go.

Address: Bokšto g. 1, 01126 Vilnius (southern Old Town).
Best for: thin-crust pizza, tartars, an intimate dinner for two.
Tip: it is tiny — reserve or call ahead, particularly at weekends.
