| - Came here on a Wednesday for dinner with my husband and to use a Groupon I had purchased (1 appetizer, 2 soups/salads, 2 entrees, 1 dessert for $39). I am so glad I bought it because it ended up being a fun evening and a fantastic deal. The place was pretty empy when we arrived, but was starting to fill up by the time we left for "Tango night." Our waiter was exceptionally helpful, friendly, and attentive.
First we got a basket of warm fresh bread with a trio of spreads - green olive butter, regular butter, and smoked salmon cream cheese. These were amazing and I think the highlight of my entire meal. We had the beef-filled potato pancakes appetizer, which were soft and flavorful. My husband got the matzo ball soup and I had the borsht, and we were both pleased with our selections. He had the lobster tail entree, and I had the Russian Schnitzel. They were both good. Mine was very rich and heavy, and I don't think we even managed to eat half of it between the two of us. For dessert we had some kind of ricotta cheese and raisin blini with apple topping, which was very good.
I was really excited reading one of the previous reviews about the family style dining that includes unlimited house wines. Before we even came to try it, I was planning to come back later with my friends for that. But the menu doesn't mention anything about beverages for the family style option, so I'm not sure if they changed their policy on that.
Not sure if I'll ever make it back here (due to location), but I certainly would be happy if I did.
