The authentically delicious Russian dishes were the real highlight. Every bite felt true to tradition — rich, flavorful, and expertly prepared. Whether you’re a longtime fan of Russian cuisine or trying it for the first time, the menu offers classics done right, with bold flavors and satisfying portions. Beyond the food, the service was friendly and made the whole evening feel personal. I also loved how the space draws you in with its thoughtful decor and lively yet inviting vibe — it’s one of those places that stays with you long after you leave. We had both a lunch here and a takeout experience, and both were absolutely exquisite. It’s rare to find a place that delivers the same level of quality and care whether you’re dining in or enjoying it at home — but they truly do. Highly recom

Fabulous Russian Eatery in NYC... Alex, our server, was super friendly and attentive, making suggestions and guiding our experience. Decor is like being in your families old world home where time stands still....its always 12:20, as the clock on the wall says!!! Food was exceptional, we ate pickled veggies, stewed tomato salad, Herring with red onion, grilled lamb, roasted Duck, napoleon and coffee A splendid time was had

We really loved our experience at the Restaraunt. The bartender Zina was so lovely and sweet and welcoming and kind! She introduced us the menu and explained everything in details! My family and I really enjoyed our experience. The food was delicious, the drinks were se good! Will definitely come back and try even more drinks and food! Thanks for the welcoming experience only because of Zina! 🙏🏼🩵

Delicious cuisine. The service was very good and genuinely friendly, but the highlight is the atmosphere, it instantly takes you back to your grandmother’s house. The music, the pictures on the walls, the table runners, the dishes, every small detail feels thoughtfully curated. The menu is also a real comfort-food journey across the ex-USSR: classic Russian New Year salads, Ukrainian borscht, and Georgian favorites like khinkali and khachapuri, all done properly and tasting homemade. A special note for the Napoleon cake: unforgettable, with perfectly crunchy layers and a rich vanilla cream.

Really good Russian food. The appetizers and entrees were good (we had the dumplings, chicken Kiev, beef stroganoff, borsch) but for me, the desserts were the highlight- especially the Napoleons. They also make very good vidka cocktails
