In my opinion, the potato dumplings with vegetarian filling are particularly recommended. The only downside, as many other visitors have noted, is the service. Everything is handled by a young man and that can quickly become overwhelming and stressful. Unfortunately, in such situations it can get a little unfriendly, but if you want to be patient and enjoy very good food, I can highly recommend this small but one restaurant.

The waiter (possibly also the owner) was the worst thing that has happened to me to date (and I really go out to eat often). He was extremely unfriendly, brash and rude to all of us. Someone like that shouldn't work in the restaurant industry. The shop itself looks more like a snack bar and doesn't seem the least bit inviting or cozy to me. The food was okay, Russian/Siberian cuisine isn't my thing personally, but everyone has to try it out for themselves. I cannot recommend this store due to the terrible service.

There was a misunderstanding about an order, the waiter brought an extra main course worth about 20 euros that we hadn 't ordered and didn 't want. The waiter and chef (they are the owners, as we understood) rudely insisted on paying, closed the doors, yelled at us and made inappropriate comments about me and my husband. I don 't normally write the reviews, but this was something 'extraordinary ' in a bad way. It was only with the help of the police that we were able to resolve the situation.

The service was really extremely good and we were advised until we were absolutely happy with the order. The food was a dream and the cake was the perfect ending. I am not being paid for this review, I would just like to thank you again for the great experience. The manti mix with starters and the stew is highly recommended. If you don't appreciate Russian cuisine, you shouldn't give the restaurant fewer points because of that. I would like to attach photos of the great food. Unfortunately I can't find the function for that. Definitely give the store a chance and don't let the negative comments put you off. Unforgettable and will definitely be repeated.
