we deliver
Due to an order from the office of the Mayor of NYC, all restaurants have been asked to close their dining rooms in response to the outbreak of COVID-19 until further notice. Unfortunately, this means we cannot honor any reservations at this time; however, emergency ordinances allow us to deliver alcohol with the purchase of food orders! Please visit our partner sites to enjoy Russian Samovar classic meals and let our infused vodkas comfort you through your social isolation. When this is over, we're all going to drink!
THe RESTAURANT
Authentic Russian cuisine
Our menu features signature dishes from the recipes passed down generation to generation. Each dish tells a story of the old country!
Classic Russian Vodka
In the mother land, only the wealthy could afford high quality vodka. The commoners had to make their vodka palatable by infusing it with fruit or herbs. We're proud to offer both varieties of vodka, and our infusions are made right here.
And a historical heritage
Before Russian Samovar existed, this was a hang out for Frank Sinatra and the Rat Pack. Now, you can still find stars like Mikhael Baryshnikov gracing our tables.
Make a reservation
We also feature private space and banquet menus. If you are interested in a private event, please click below.
Our dishes were created to soothe the soul in the harsh Russian winters or to relax you in the summer heat. Featuring seasonal hot and cold soups, hearty favorites like Chicken Kiev and Beef Stroganoff, and light, elegant fair like our extensive salad and caviar options, we have something for all seasons.
cuisine for your soul
