May 14, 2026"Most likely the best garlic bread on this beach, I had the steak tartare with a portion of fries. The fries were decent, the tartare was excellent and the portion was generous. The coupe balalaika was a bomb of flavors and textures, I definitely recommend it. Service was really good too"

Even though the food is mixed, some dishes were really good. The borsch was amazing. The Kiev cutlet portion was super big and very delicious. The mushroom toast was also great. They also have pancakes, Olivier salad, mushrooms, and other familiar dishes that wasn’t so good. Overall, it was okay, but I wouldn’t come back again."

Mar 10, 2026"I think they deserve better than the rating on google. About the service, yes it might take an extra two minutes, and then I spend two more minutes watching the waves. The two guys working there are super nice and jolly. I got huge Gin Tonics, and the Gulash was better than my own, and that says a lot. Then the stroganoff, and it had great and tender beef. The owner also said hello with a big smile like Julio Iglesias. Great place, real people. I think these cute guys deserve a 4,7, not 3,7."
