Nevski propose une cuisine russe authentique ancrée dans les traditions culinaires slaves classiques. Le menu met en avant des plats roboratifs tels que les pelmeni garnis de viande, le bortsch riche en saveurs et le bœuf stroganoff préparé avec une technique rigoureuse. La carte privilégie des recettes conçues pour offrir des textures consistantes et des profils aromatiques profonds. L'esthétique intérieure reflète une influence rustique, accordant la priorité au confort fonctionnel plutôt qu'aux ornements décoratifs modernes. Chaque assiette souligne les ingrédients fondamentaux de la région, incluant des légumes racines, des condiments fermentés et des protéines de qualité. Cet établissement constitue un lieu direct pour ceux qui recherchent des plats est-européens classiques et sans prétention servis dans un cadre pragmatique. L'approche culinaire demeure strictement fidèle aux méthodes de préparation régionales établies, garantissant des résultats constants pour chaque mets proposé.
Nevski est souvent qualifié de véritable perle à Montréal, apprécié pour ses saveurs authentiques d'Europe de l'Est, sa carte de cocktails créatifs et son atmosphère chaleureuse et nostalgique. De nombreux clients soulignent la qualité des plats emblématiques comme le khachapuri et les divers raviolis, tout en remarquant le professionnalisme d'un personnel attentionné qui déploie souvent des efforts notables pour garantir une expérience mémorable. Bien que l'établissement soit largement reconnu comme un lieu idéal pour les rencontres sociales et les événements thématiques, certains convives ont fait part de préoccupations concernant la lenteur du service lors des périodes d'affluence et un déséquilibre ressenti entre la taille des portions et les prix pratiqués. Dans l'ensemble, cet endroit demeure une destination prisée pour ceux qui recherchent une expérience culinaire unique, vivante et riche en culture.
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.
Trendy atmosphere however surprisingly not packed for a Friday night. Our waiter was charming but forgetful, we did need to remind & correct him on a few of our orders. We ordered two different cheese boats, dumplings, salmon fish cakes & pirojki. The dough for the cheese boats & pirojki were like a soft pillowy cloud. All very small portions but delicious. That being said, I do believe this is really more of a bakery/home style cuisine & doesn't quite fit in a trendy atmosphere. To end the night we got the medovik slice of cake which was very different from anything i've ever tasted before! Our waiter did disappear at one point & we needed to ask two other waiters for our bill. Overall cute but wouldn't go back.
Une excellente découverte! J'ignorais la gastronomie russe & je dois dire que j'ai été épaté. Les plats étaient très goûteux & généreux! Les dumplings Veau & Champignons étaient tellement délicieux que nous avons commandés une deuxième portion en plus du Cheeseboat, bortsch, & les duos pirojki. Les deux cocktails auxquels nous avons goûtés étaient le Transiberiens ainsi que le St-Petersbourg Mule; ces derniers étaient sublimes! Nous y retournerons absolument 💯
Really fun place for a night out with friends. Great organic wine; awesome dumplings & dessert (we had the honey cake); very attentive & professional service. Decor is very fun, too.
I went there with my bf in july (2023). We were very disappointed. I don't plan to go back there & I don't recommand it even for drinks unless you want to pay 15$ for sugary water. I paid 15$ for a drink (Cocktail) which was basically a glass full of ice & then they put liquid in it to fill what's left (not much). Even without letting the ice melt, it tasted like it was alrealy too diulated. As for the food, we took 3 dishes of pelmini (dumplings). I did recognize the pelmini as the same frozen one that you can buy at any eastern european grocery stores. So, I wasn't happy to see that I was served with frozen pelmini with probably a sauce that was from a can, & some green onion to make it look fresh.
