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.

Awesome khinkali & dumplings! Great service. It doesn't look like much from the outside, but the food & drink were excellent.

Amazing cocktail bar with a russian vibe in Old Port Montréal. They make great classic martinis & mules. Ruslan, our bartender, was very insightful about the cocktails stories & folklore. Blinis, dumplings & zuski for a great cocktail & food pairing. Fun for staff party & friend gatherings.

Was excited to have Russian & Georgian food again. However, this place was a bit of a disappointment. We arrived & were told that we needed to order quickly as they were having a private event at 930pm, which was lots of time since we arrived at 830pm. However, the server took forever & we were clearly forgotten. we were finally able to flag down someone & placed our order. The mushroom dumplings & the chicken adjika dumplings were good but only lukewarm. The tefteli meatball cheese boat / khachapuri was a fraction of the size of what you see in their Instagram posts with only 3 meatballs & the cheese was still hard & not fully melted. You can see in the video the egg is runny but the cheese is hard & it was difficult to dip the bread as instructed on their menu on how to eat! The donuts were also hard & not sweet enough as a dessert. It was all ok & tasty but because everything wasn't hot, it didn't seem fresh.

Just amazing. Stopped in on a whim & were blown away by how great the food was! We were looking for a casual place with delicious food at an affordable price, with outdoor seating (we had our 3 year old with us). It scored on all counts. Perfect casual environment outside & amazing food, drinks & service. We got the veal dumplings, the chicken dumplings & the spinach & cheese cheeseboat. The cheeseboat was good but the dumplings were so delicious I'd just order more of those instead next time. We were talking about them the rest of the night, & wish we had another night in Montreal so we could go back! Also - try the Sasha shots!

Really really good, flavourful food. The ambiance inside is dark & there are large tables that are perfect for groups. The cheeseboats are a must, as well as the dumplings.
