Delivery: bacon & smoked sausage cheeseboat was amazing, love the stuffed crust. The Siberian Pelmeni dumplings were well seasoned. The poutine stroganoff would have been perfect if the fries were crispier, maybe a little more meat. The donuts were good. Service was good but could have been bette

We had two orders of dumplings plus borsch, carrot salad, & a cheese boat, there was not a single bite left of any of it! Every bit is homemade, affordable, lively local bar restaurant scene. Wish it was closer to home (we live in Colorado).

Really great place. Nice vibe (we went on a Wednesday was chill), delicious food & great service. Loved the dumplings & carrots the most but everything was so good. Would come here again & again.

Formerly great - now barely mediocre.

A boat that was the size the entire plate now shrunk by 25%.

Two drinks, which also shrunk for some reason.

10 pelmeni for 16$? Insanity.

You can get a full kilogram at epicure for 10$.

Two people sharing dishes, left hungry, but 100$ poorer.

Not coming back again. Very sad.

Very good food & ambiance but keep in mind portions are q bit small so eat something else beforehand or order a few plates- they are more tapas sized than entrees.

Love-love-love this place. Atmosphere is a vibe, food is great (khachapuri is a 10/10 must-try). Food tastes authentic (coming from a slavic person) & not over-the-top expensive. Very busy so reserve in advance, service can get a bit slow but personnel was amazing.

Will definitely come again!
