Nice experience of Russian cuisine. Indoor decorations are really amazing, feels like you're in old fashioned granny's house. Comfortable qr menu with pictures of food. I really enjoyed Onegin cake, so fresh soft and flavorful! Service is ok, they're busy, so do not be surprised if waiters forgot your tea or spoons. You just have to remind them.

My first time trying Russian food and it was a really nice experience. Our waitress was really helpful in guiding us through the menu and explaining to us what we should expect in terms of flavor and texture. They did an amazing job decorating the interior to feel like your granny's home !

We came here to celebrate friends visiting and one of them is Armenian. She had been here before and said it lived up to the hype. The atmosphere is very cozy and decor inside is stunning and beautifully decorated. The food boasts a lot of Eastern European cuisine with a lot of diverse dishes. As a table we shared the sunflower salad, the cheese pie, soleniya, and as an entree we had the salmon filet, and the chicken kotletki. I was happy to have someone who could order for us and authentically. While certainly on the pricey side we enjoyed all the food and it was delicious. This is most certainly a place you come to celebrate something.

We were excited to try some Russian food here and overall, the place lived up to its hype. To start with, the restaurant looks gorgeous inside out. Really nice interior with thoughtful touches. Getting a table wasn't an issue and we got seated quickly. The menu has many classic dishes and a lot to choose from. We ordered pelmeni, borsch, Olivier salad, and kvas. All of it was done pretty fast and hands down, every meal tasted great. It's definitely on the pricier side given portion sizes, but you don't pay just for food - it's the whole experience. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars is because it was hard to catch our server. She rarely came to our table and we had to explicitly prompt her a few times to get something. Other than that, we enjoyed the restaurant!

Food 8/10 I've never had Russian food before so this was a very delightful new experience for me. We ordered the salad, beet soup, dumplings, beef stroganoff, and this amazing layer cake that I have no idea what the name is. Nevertheless, I especially liked the dumplings, beef, and cake. All the flavors felt very homey and cozy. The dumplings were hefty, full of soup, and had a lovely chewy skin. The beef stroganoff came with buckwheat, a pairing that I've never had before but enjoyed as well. The cake itself really blew me away, it was with honey, yet not too overly sweet. Their cocktails are also pretty amazing, I got the Czar, a twist on the moscow mule, and the ginger tasted sooo fresh, Definitely recommend!! Atmosphere 9/10 Super cute interior decor, I am obsessed. It was quite loud inside, as mostly all tables were booked and everyone was having a good time. It was a bit warm though for my sweater, so I know now to be more prepared next time. Service 7/10 Decent service.
