    They were not very busy through our dining experience between 5pm and 6pm. The service was a bit slow but the food was very good. We all finished our dish and also enjoyed the wine and beer. They finished off the night by giving us a shot of a limoncello concoction which was excellent, we wanted a gallon to go. Overall, it was a very good experience.

    I love this place. Ultimate comfort food. I love the aesthetic. It’s pretty enough to be on a magazine spread or Instagram page and also feels comfortable enough to feel like you are welcome in a home. I’ve been several times so tried almost everything on the menu. My tips. Try the Kompot - it’s the best juice ever. Drinks that have vodka are great because they have all these house-made infused vodka and it’s really high quality. Everything is good IMO but my tops are Cabbage Vareniki - get them steamed - trust me. Beef Blini, Mushroom is great too but I prefer beef Lamb Pelmeni also great. If it’s your first time get the sampler with the Chicken Kiev, Beef Stroganoff, Lamb Plov and Golubstky. The Golubstky for me, meat stuffed in cabbage - yum. Honestly these are just the tops but everything is good. I haven’t had anything that I didn’t think was pretty great. For dessert - definitely the honey cake. You’re welcome 🤣
