Customer Reviews
Great food and overall a very pleasant experience. The food was absolutely delicious — authentic flavors and very well prepared. You can really tell that quality ingredients are used. The service and atmosphere could be a bit more polished, but nothing that ruins the experience. Overall, everything was great and I would definitely come back for the food again. Highly recommended!
My friend and and I split a starter and a salad for lunch. Chebureki is a deep fried ground beef turnover that is delicious. The Fish Under Coat salad apparently had herring at the bottom, but the potatoes, carrots and shredded beets stop were so tasty that no fishy taste or smell came through. A lovely elegant restaurant worthy of return visits.
I live across the street so been meaning to try it since they stated they were halal. Got the manti (dumplings), lamb shank, and plov. Everything was flavorful and savory. The service was solid too and was a big fan of the bread they give prior to ordering! Only thing was that portions were smaller than expected, but surprisingly filling. Definitely worth eating if you want a proper dining spot that isn't expensive.
Atmosphere wise very nice, quiet and the staff was friendly, the design of the whole place was really nice too, but i wouldn’t recommend the food. The meat wasn’t fully hot, the taste didn’t feel like it was seasoned properly and it was dry and tough despite how much sauce there was. The rice was very stale and sticky? The veggies didn’t really taste/look like they were cooked fully or seasoned properly and it was just overall a very okay experience, I think you could make the food yourself way better, but if you do get something I’d recommend the shashlik’s instead of any of the beef dishes
We returned to this restaurant because we recalled it was good and we needed a halfway meeting point for more distant friends. It was much better than good -- plav, dumplings, salad, borscht, lamb, all delicious. Service was unobtrusive but attentive. Quiet atmosphere with choice of tables. Really no complaints. Since this was a return, I was surprised to see some negative reviews of what for us has been a consistently positive experience. Maybe it was expectations (there are different styles of the same dish) or the kitchen had a bad day, but that's not been our experience.
