    For an over-the-top dining/drinking experience head here. On Mon-Fri between 5-7pm it's 'Vodka Hour' where you can taste 2 vodkas for $14; stay for dinner and opt for one of their vodka cocktails. Read more

    Stunning place and excellent service. Try their Boeuf a la Stroganoff is absolutely delicious, the meat melt in your mouth... To finish ask for the St. Petersburg tea.

    Been here for restaurant week, a real bargain if you ask me. The food was great, and the atmosphere is super unique, feels a bit like eating in a museum 😏

    The beef stroganoff is hands down one of my favorite things I’ve ever eaten. Worth the visit and the expense for that stroganoff alone.

    Teas are amazing. Try to come for the afternoon tea where you get scones and pastries. Decor is very lavish and old Russian. Def a nyc must see.

    Try the Cavitini with Imperial Vodka made from wheat and rye served dry, chilled and up with 10-grams Hackleback Caviar and olives. It's a classic Russian cocktail and absolutely delicious.

    High tea is so much fun! Delicious sandwiches and desserts. Better option than dinner in my opinion.

    Sasha is the best waiter for Russian customers, and it's not that many of them at all! This place has the least Russian food, but nice atmosphere and good service. Try the pancakes with red fish

    Nice food - the Borscht is amazing and the mains were tasty. The dining room is very pretty too...but everything is so overpriced.

    Established 1927 by former Russian Imperial Ballet members. Crossed the street 1929 to brownstone from 1875. Building remodeled in 2006, retaining restaurant as original. Frequented by celebrities.

    ESCARGOT: delicious - slices of garlic were a great touch to the dish, but not amazing due to excess use of salt.

    Brunch was excellent though it took a while to even get our drinks. The kids loved the pancakes and the French toast.

    Drinks are a bit on the pricier side but their Moscow mule was pretty good. Food is good, nothing fancy or out of the extraordinary

    Cool to see the interior decor, but the afternoon tea is beyond average. The cupcakes tasted like they were from a multipack at the local deli. Just come to have a drink and then eat elsewhere.
