Great service & food & drinks

The shrimp & dill dumplings were awesome

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.

Delicious food & drinks! Service was fantastic! The appetizers & salad are on the smaller side so definitely get many items to share.

Great food, great drinks, great people. It's an ideal introduction to Eastern European flavors, served by a warm & attentive team. Their cocktail menu is a rotating showcase of creative recipes, & the occasional live jazz nights elevate an already wonderful atmosphere into something memorable.

The food was exceptional & the service was very friendly but the meal took seemingly forever to arrive & the portions were disappointingly small compared to the prices. A great place if you just want drinks & shareable appetizers, not so good for a full meal

Really delicious food, & drinks! Great atmosphere & friendly service. However, it took a while for the food to come out (30 minutes each time) & a bit expensive for the portion size.

One of my favourite bars in the city! The food is amazing & the drinks are just as good. Prices are very reasonable for what you get, & the portions, especially the drinks, are super generous. The staff is always friendly & welcoming, & the bar itself is beautifully & tastefully decorated. Definitely a spot I keep coming back to.
