Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Bonnie Morales

From the OpenTable editors: When it opened in 2014, this trailblazing restaurant launched the country’s Eastern European culinary renaissance, garnering raves from Bon Appétit, Eater, GQ, and more. A decade in, Bonnie and Israel Morales’s ode to their roots is still a hotspot for its famed horseradish-infused vodka, zakuski (snacks) like caviar and roe, and clay pot rabbit. Decked with colorful posters and tablecloths sourced from Belarus, the inviting, bi-level space is one you’ll want to return to again and again.

    Excellent overall experience. Hostess was able to upgrade our reservation from 4 to 5 people. We sat in the back room which was cozy with a moderate noise level (honestly, we were probably the loudest group). Great drink options, especially the vodka flights, which nicely showcased the subtleties of that beverage from different regions and with different fermented bases. Their horseradish version is not to be missed and nicely compliments the food. The Ruskie Zakuski Experience wasn't inexpensive but was a great way to get introduced to their menu, with dishes arriving at just the right intervals with good explanations. We supplemented with some dumplings and desserts (nice, but not the strongest portion of the meal). Friendly service. We'll definitely return!

    What a treat. For years we’ve been meaning to go and just never made it. We ordered well and the experience was well worth the (self-imposed) wait. Their happy hour caviar was one of the best things I’ve ever put in my mouth. And if I wasn’t a vodka drinker before, I am now! Thanks to server Bob for creating a memorable night with impeccable service.

    We took our sister in law and her mom who are Russian. They so enjoyed all the food. Reminded them how their family used to cook.

    Lived up to expectations and fond memories of previous visits. Great to see that some things never change. Took first timers and they had a blast.

    Very nice spot. Will be going back. We had this and it was worth it! "The ruskie zakuski experience" Sit back and let us fill your table with an array of cold zakuski to start your meal off right! full table participation is required.

    A strange place and in no way reflects the mysterious Russian soul. The wine is very strange, I have never tried anything like it. How can you just bring vodka and not even offer a piece of bread with lard or lemon for a snack. Cellophane tablecloths on the tables and strange dried trees on top do not in any way add coziness. And for all this you have to pay above average.
