“Look for notable smoked salmon, tender blini with salmon caviar, and cabbage stuffed with beef and rice.”

"Home cooking just like Svetlana used to make, to tune of a gently strumming guitar or squeezebox."
Rough Guide
"Muscovite restaurant with frilly decor, live acoustic music (accordion, guitar) on occasion, a full slate of Russian teas and almost every Russian dish you'd hope to find in this part of the world."

Choose from a bowl of beet borscht ($5) or a golden-baked piroshki ($3) as a starter, then move on to a heaping plate of beef stroganoff ($16) or perhaps the poached sturgeon ($19).
San Francisco Chronicle
"These direct, gently stimulating flavors achieve what appetizers are meant to do: rev up the hankerings for richer courses to come."

"Katia herself "oversees the kitchen", concocting "authentic" (and otherwise "hard to find") Russian "comfort food" (think "excellent borscht" and "great blini")."
