This is my new favorite restaurant in Walnut Creek! Refreshingly unique in the area and stands right alongside Cinderella Bakery in SF. Incredible food, really friend staff, strong dessert game. Chicken Kiev, dumplings, and piroskis were some of the best I’ve had. Cool ambience, well lit space with chandeliers and Eastern European decorations. Great drinks selection too: Hungarian wines, Czech and Polish beers, Russian vodka, etc. Will absolutely be returning, highly recommend!

Incredibly tasty and comforting food. First time here and everything was delicious. We started with the toasted rye bread and eggplant dip called baklajani. The bread was lightly toasted and so fresh and the dip was warm and delicious even though I typically do not care for eggplant.

We went there I believe on Christmas day, and returned on January 15 to try the deli. We started with chicken liver pate spread on toasted brioche. Th pate is extremely smooth and creamy, one of the best I tasted, even if slightly sweet. I bought more during our trip to the deli, and will try the goose pate later.

1st time eating Russian food and it was soooooo good! I highly recommend this place and they have excellent service!! They give you a starter which is the shot glass- pureed potato soup with whipped sour cream and garnish- that was heavenly! For my appetizer we ordered chicken pate and Kahchapuri- my favorite on the menu!- The entree I got Perlini ( I apologize if I botched that..) it’s a pork and beef dumplings with whipped sour cream, delicious!! Dessert was lemon sorbet, sooo good! Five out of five stars!!! Excellent!! The alcohol beverage I believe was called “Babushka my Love” really good. It’s a sweet drink. The soup is the Borscht- also really good! Highly recommend this place! Can’t say it enough!

Average food with extremely small portion sizes … Total rip off !! Outdoor patio was good but it’s not worth the tiny portion sizes and prices.

Easy to rate this place five stars. They made great decisions and suggestions a out both wine and food. The only problem was that the food was so good I didn’t want to stop eating.
