For ninety-eight years, New York's defining cultural moments have taken place at Russian Tea Room. Ever since members of the Russian Imperial Ballet founded the restaurant in 1926, it has been a second home for boldface names and the intellectual elite-an exclusive enclave where actors, writers, politicians, and businessmen planned their next deals and feted their friends' latest Carnegie Hall performances.

    Poor inattentive service. Thanksgiving dinner very overpriced for chewy 3 slices of turkey.Only red beets soup was ok. Chicken kotlet was DROWN IN OIL the same as potatoes and 1 tiny branch of broccoli. My for was sliding due to oil all over plate. Nalesnik- desert crapes was just quarter of banana wrap in cold crape completely tasteless. Worst I ever have anywhere.145 dollars for not justifying for this. Cheapest glass whine 20 dollars. If you want champagne for 1600 that is a good place. Would never want to go there even if ambience is nice.

    Decepcionante. Servicio y atención malos. Precio realmente exorbitado en relación a la calidad y cantidad. Un atraco. Y encima te exigen propina. Una pena.

    The food was delicious and the staff were kind. They helped make our seating needs happen and manager took time to talk to us about the pictures around our part of the room. Toward the end of the night, a server helped narrow down a tea choose for a teen in our party. I loved how several of them took time to make the evening special. It was a fun bucket list check off for my husband.

    Had beef stroganoff, little small, but met fell apart with touch of fork. Tasted terrrific. All deserts were $22, I didn’t think ice cream was worth $22, I got creame brûlée with raspberries, was fine. We’re celebrating a special occasion, so worth the $.
