If you are at Brighton Beach, you must rest your laurels here and take in some refreshment. On any summer's day, the shaded outdoor seating facing the ocean is lovely. The tasty food is enhanced by beers in liters. There is a good base of local customers peppered with the occasional beach comber wondering by. The mushroom fries were awesome!

Situated on Brighton Beach in Coney Island, directly facing the ocean, this restaurant offers a refreshing experience under a parasol, where you can enjoy the sea breeze. The menu is presented on a tablet for easy navigation. We only ordered drinks, so it's hard to evaluate the food, but the place has a charming, old-fashioned Russian restaurant vibe that feels very welcoming.

Great place for an ocean view lunch or dinner with German beer!

Absolutely everything I was hoping for! The sea views and smoked fish were delightful. The cold beer was excellent as well! It was just perfect—pleasant, cheerful, and reasonably priced. The starter I had was well-sized and enjoyable. On my second visit, I couldn't resist the smoked fish platter served with brown bread. It was simply divine!
