I enjoyed my visit, just as much as I used to 20 years ago. This place didn't change much, everything is still made fresh, tasty and the bill will surprise you in a good way. The atmosphere is somewhat noisy but nothing excessive. Crowd, as you can expect, composed of ex-USSRs - both babushkas and young people. Dishes are huge. Kompot is a drink you should try, comes in pitchers. Waiters are fast but busy, so they don't trouble you with too many unnecessary questions.
This is the best cafe with Russian and Ukrainian cuisine. Interesting interior design made in the style of a railway car of the 90s.
Separately, I want to mention the male waiters, they are very friendly and friendly.
This is the best restaurant I have been to in NYC so far. I've been to about 15 or so. This is the best. Everything was 10/10. The fish, the beer, the sides, dumplings, blintzes, cooked apple, salads, coleslaw, borsch. Everything 10/10. And the prices are very fair. Incredible place. I went here on my birthday. Best birthday feast I've had in a long time.
Very nice place with delicious dumplings (pelmeni) amd decent prices
Tasty food and excellent service!!!
The Borcht makes a great start for a meal as did the Mushroom varenyky. The highlight of my lunch was the rabbit with white sauce which tasted like turkey albeit more boney. The cherry punch was nice with just the right amount of sweetness. The prices were not bad at all.
The place was a little small but the tables can be placed together if one is dining with a large group. There is only one washroom so just be prepared to exercise patience.
Just go here.
Been going here for like 15 years. The quality remained consistently high and the price fairly low.
If you don't speak/read russian make sure to ask for the english menu if they don't give it to you.
In any case, this is definitely a gem worth checking out.
I can’t ever get enough of this hidden gem. They’re always consistent every single time and I’ve been ordering from this spot for maybe 15 years now. My go to dishes are the pan fried Branzino with mashed potato’s, lamb ribs, beef stroganoff, chicken broth and or borscht, Vareniki with meat, and everyone gets their Siberian pelmeni. You can even order frozen ones if you want to have some at the ready in your freezer.
So good place to dine in, but if you like some dietary dishes, definitely you should try delicious salad and slavic "brown rice" - buckwheat!
If you're first time here, try their's cappuccino and cotleta po kievski!!
The waiters are positive
Good Russian food and fast service at fair prices! Since it was our first time there, one of the women could've been nicer; she expected us to know everything and wasn't very helpful. They seem to be nicer if you speak Russian. All the staff zoom past you when the restaurant gets busy (it got very busy on a Sunday at 3pm!) I was impressed at how well they clean each table after each use even when they're very busy (not normal in NYC even if a restaurant isn't busy.) I might go back.
