Celebrated a friend's birthday. Live music. Really good. Good is fantastic, but slow. Be prepared to sit and enjoy each other's company.

From the time I first learned of this restaurant I wanted to go. Yesterday, I was in the city and my feet brought me here. The ambiance was perfect for a pre theater dinner or just a peaceful moment away from the grind of the city. Prices for me, a non-city dweller, were higher than normal but I saw a menu for a pre fixe meal and went for it. I had what I thought was a traditional Russian meal which consisted of an appetizer of: Vinegret; Entrée of Beef Stroganoff, Dessert of Smetannik Cake and a Hot Russian Tea with whole cherry 🍒 preserves with lemon & honey 🍯 😋. It was a very tasty meal but for me i thought the portions were a tad small on the Entrée and dessert though at my age it was probably just right. The meal was extremely tasty with flavors I never imagined to be able to taste. The live piano music was just perfect for any reason that brought you here. My rating is low only because I expect more on my plate. Service was great and I love that it is a family run business that has its roots and traditions set in the Ukraine 🇺🇦 as well as Russian heritage. I highly recommend this restaurant for all the flavors and heritage they have brought to the United States 🇺🇸 of America.

Very unfriendly girl in the bar. I spoke Russian to her and when I asked where she is from she was very rude and responded did you come here to drink tea or ask me where I am from. As new to NY and very happy seeing someone who speaks Russian her mean and rude behavior made us leave. We will never go there nor we will advise our friends to visit. We didn’t feel welcomed.
