sooo good, but got new owners in 2015 and we have not been there since..see more below

Went for Kim’s 50th Birthday in 2024

Very Favorites:

  • *Pelmeni: Dumplings - So good. Could have eaten 100. This was probably our favorite
  • Barley Risotto with Mushrooms: This was a favorite. No idea how it was so good.
  • Pozharsky Cutlets: Delicious breaded ground chicken coated with bread crumbs
  • Solyanka: Smokey meat soup - so good!!!

Almost Favorites:

  • Salmon Bilini - You assembled yourself. These were really great
  • Zucchini Blossom Flowers - These were amazingly good, but at $18 for 4, this was way too expensive.
  • Chicken Kiev: Was also so good and buttery.
  • Chicken Tabaka: This chicken was so flavorful and moist. One of the best dishes that was just a chicken part that I have ever had.

Good, but not Amazing:

  • Potato Pancakes: While these were very good, I’d rather get other things.
  • Beef Stroganoff - Still delicious, but would rather get other things first
  • Borscht: This wasn’t as good as it was when we went years ago. Need to try again to see if it will be better
