Tatiana Restaurant

We walked in by pure accident. No plans, no hype — just hungry. And let me tell you, sometimes that’s when you find the real deal. The borscht? Thick and honest. Not that watered-down tourist stuff. This one’s got body, flavor, and soul — the kind that slows you down after a long day. The dumplings were spot-on. Juicy, well-seasoned, good dough — nothing fancy, nothing fake. Just done right. And that shashlik… hot off the grill, smoky, tender. You can’t fake that kind of flavor. That’s hands-on cooking, plain and simple. What I liked most — they’re not tryin’ to impress you with trends or pretty plates. They’re here to feed people right. And these days, that means a lot. Sometimes the best places ain’t planned. You just follow your hunger — and it leads you somewhere good.

This is one of the very few Russian restaurants left standing in nyc that has a 5 star experience each time you go. Ive been to two birthday parties here with the banquet inside with live shows. Each time I have been here the tables and decor is beautiful, the service has been outstanding and the food was excellent from start to finish. You will get the full russian experience of a five course meal with cold cut plates, pickled plates, elegant french salads, bread and butter baskets and then mains of kebabs with fried potatoes, short ribs, shrimps, paella style rice and lamb chops. I also love how you can BYOB which is a big part of the experience. The drinks keep flowing with unlimited pitchers of russian fruit punch and sodas. I love the entertainment here, they have really good russian

I went to Tatiana for lunch and unfortunately had a very bad experience. I ordered the Pojarsky cutlet. At first, I was pleased with the presentation—the plate looked nice, and the portion size was generous. However, the moment I tasted it, I realized something was very wrong. The cutlet smelled like old lard(salo)and the inside seemed to be made of at least 80% bread and bread crumbs, with very little meat. I managed to eat only one of the two cutlets because I was hungry, but it was not good. The waiter was polite, but the payment process was very unprofessional. Instead of bringing me a bill, he asked me to look at the computer screen, requested I pay in cash, and automatically charged a 20% tip—then even asked for more. In the end, I gave 10% extra without really understanding why, s

Interesting and very tasty Eastern-European/Slavic cuisine. Good service. It’s a great place to enjoy the ocean views.

Came for an afternoon lunch. Service was great and very attentive. They let us sit at our table for a long time without rushing over to clear anything which was appreciated. The Greek salad was very fresh and lovely.
