Came by with some friends who recommended the place. It wasn't too busy when I arrived but it did pick up later in the night. After getting a table we got menus and had a look. The waiter was very helpful and did have quite a few recommendations, some of which were also recommended by my friends. We shared 5 plates of food as well as all of the desserts. Most of the dishes that we got were really good but there were a few like the borsch which weren't that nice. The Shashilk (skewers) were nice, I thought that the beef was better than the pork one. It was the Plov with the crispy lamb chops which was the winner of the night although the vareniki (potato and cheese dumplings) were a very close second. The desserts didn't sound too appealing for me since I'm one of those who just love chocolates and sugar. I was pleasantly surprised at the sour cream mousse. It wasn't overly sweet but also not overly sour and the Black Russian Jelly giving it a nice punch. The pavlova was also quite interesting but tasted too much of coffee for me. A really nice place for a relaxing dinner with really good service and food.

It was my first time had Russian food. It was different, but not so foreign to me since I love exploring all sorts of different cuisines. The food was quite tasty. I wish they had chili sauce though - I just love spicy food so much.
