What a wonderful restaurant! The food was delicious & the people running the place are so welcoming, you get to experience the proper Russian hospitality. & you must try the desserts! I have a soft spot for Russian cakes, & the ones at this restaurant are clearly made with love.
A lovely restaurant offering Russian, Georgian & European specialties. I had their Georgian soup with a perfect blend of spices & filet mignon with chanterelles & foie gras, both dishes were delicious. The owner is charming & welcoming.
Excellent service & que dire de la nourriture, délicieux. Pour avoir voyager en Russie, ce resto est celui qui se rapproche le plus de l'expérience culinaire de la Russie.
A lovely experience! The homemade food was delicious & so carefully created, & the atmosphere of the restaurant was amazing - the ceiling is covered in mirrors, the walls are donned with paintings, & the accents of gold decor create such a feeling of warmth & regality. The service was incredible, our waitress was so kind & patient!
