Review of The Russian Tea Room

A quaint landmark restaurant with great character....

A quaint landmark restaurant with great character. The place was empty on a Sunday, but filled up eventually creating a more lively space. The green and gold atmosphere is paired with authentic Russian tradition. Be sure to look around for some of the more Russian-influenced customers, complete with oligarch-style tracksuits and women in fur hats. Our server, Vladimir, was friendly and knowledgeable, serving traditional Russian tea with cherry preserves and Stroganoff. The warm hospitality paired with the sheer honesty about personal preferences on the menu really brings Moscow to you. I felt like the only thing missing was a picture of Putin on the walls!
