Inspiring interior

The restaurant design, that harmoniously combines wood and natural stone, creates an atmosphere of lightness and tranquility: soft colors of the interior make the space more inviting and comfortable, while the aged mirrors, which are placed throughout the hall expand the space and add a historical elegance to the place around. There’re many plants which fit well into the overall design, enhancing its natural beauty without overwhelming the perception of the interior.

Every element in the LETO’s interior is thoughtfully designed down to the smallest details, allowing guests to fully immerse themselves in a world of taste, quality, and hospitality.

LETO – one of the best restaurants of Russian and European cuisine in Guangzhou.

Restaurant Concept: Authentic, Not Adapted

The philosophy of LETO is simple and consistent:
preserve original European and Russian flavors without adapting them to the local market.

Many restaurants modify recipes to suit mass preferences. LETO takes a different path — offering dishes the way they are meant to taste in Europe and Russia. This approach makes the restaurant particularly appealing to expats and travelers who miss familiar flavors.

Josper Grill & Live Fire Cooking

One of LETO’s standout features is its Spanish Josper charcoal oven.

Steaks, skewers, fish, and hot dishes are cooked over real fruitwood fire, giving the food depth, aroma, and a distinctive chargrilled character that cannot be replicated by standard kitchen equipment.

Handmade Pasta & European Classics

Pasta at LETO is made by hand using Italian flour, resulting in the correct texture and structure needed to fully absorb sauces.

The menu combines European classics with well-known Russian dishes, all prepared in an authentic style rather than a fusion adapted to local taste.

Kitchen Philosophy & Ingredients

Cooking from Scratch

At LETO, nothing is based on pre-made products.
Sauces, pasta, and key components of dishes are prepared in-house, allowing full control over taste, texture, and quality.

Imported Ingredients

Most core ingredients are imported. This is a deliberate choice, as European products differ significantly in taste and consistency from local substitutes.

Premium Meat Selection

The restaurant works with:

New Zealand and Australian beef
Mongolian lamb

This ensures a clean, natural meat flavor without artificial enhancement.
