We had here two really good fishsoups and two very great sidedishes. Can recommend it very much! Also the tea was like real tea, bravo
I'm a graduate student at Higher School of Economics (Moscow). That's why I view any asset in terms of its fair value. To put it simple, I consider why food in the restaurant is more expensive than in a shop. Sometimes, it's just because restaurant is located in a fancy place, so it pays a lot of money as a rent. It should be good for an owner of the building, but it doesn't create value for me as a customer. Sometimes, it's because restaurant uses good and expensive ingredients. Sometimes, because they have high-level Chef who requires big compensation. But I believe that the biggest value added that a restaurant can create is related with how you feel as their guest, so-called "customer experience". This part is especially important when you are far from home, tired or stressed. Most of the franchise restaurants pay a lot of attention to this component - they train their stuff, develop tones of internal regulations, get feedback from customers. But the thing is that hospitality that they create by those efforts is aftificial and you can easily feel it. This place is very different. We saw owner of the restaurant who personally oversees everything and who views customers as proof that all efforts that he put in this restaurant for 15 years are not in vain.
We have visited this restaurant during the past 45 years. It is located at the same location, was recently renovated, but two things remain the same, great food and service. Caviar, salty fish snacks, full bar, great desserts and great main entries with a crown dishes among them are baked pike-perch or sturgeon in St. Petersburg style (both are good but during the last visit we had pike-perch ("sudak" in Russian). These dishes are served baked in small skillets with sliced potatoes, onions, spices, and covered with mayonnaise. Weight watchers be aware, this is not a light food, but it is so yummy...
was expecting nice food and atmosphere unfortunately place didn t live up to expectations. nice service but food was horrible. had chicken shashlik which was more like steamed chicken chunks.plain and tasteless. soggy reheated fried potatoes and some cucumber. so far worst place in st petersburg we had food at. again very large menu which kind of tells that food are not freshly made us it would be not possible.
