Weβre visiting from Chicago for the FIFA World Cup and were looking for a good place to eat near LAX. We found this amazing Ukrainian restaurant just 15 minutes from the airport, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip.
The food was absolutely delicious, fresh, and authentic. Every dish we tried was excellent. The servers were warm, friendly, and attentive, and the staff at the front counter made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in.
Itβs not easy to find a place that combines great food, genuine hospitality, and such a comfortable atmosphere, but this restaurant does exactly that.
10/10. Highly recommended! Whether you're visiting Los Angeles or just heading to or from LAX, this place is definitely worth a stop.
First time trying Ukrainian food. I had the varenyky with potatoes pierogi and the holubtsi with beef.
The pasta in the pierogis tasted very fresh. Not as mushroomy as I hoped, but still very good.
The holubtsi was the stand-out for me. The tomato sauce was slightly sweet. The texture of the rolls was nice.
Great service, friendly faces, great food. I've personally never seen a Ukrainian restaurant in LA, and I'm super excited to see more types of cuisine on the westside.
I hope they succeed!
We specifically visited this place because it was advertised, but after visiting the menu, we were very disappointed, it was the most unappetizing borscht we have ever tasted, with huge pieces of cabbage, the dumplings were not made of meat, but of some kind of cartilage, the cherry dumplings were okay, the coffee was okay, but everything else was tasteless and disappointing, we paid $125 for everything and left the place upset(

I honestly go out of my way to stop here every single time Iβm driving nearby, even though this place is quite far from where I live. Iβve been here around eight times already, and every single visit has been amazing. The food is always absolutely delicious, incredibly fresh, and the service is impressively fast β usually no more than a 10-minute wait. The staff is always kind, welcoming, and very professional.
The atmosphere is also very authentic. Everything inside is tastefully chosen, beautiful, not overloaded, and without anything unnecessary. It feels cozy, elegant, and very well thought out.
I was never a huge fan of Russian/Ukrainian cuisine before, but this place completely changed my opinion. In my opinion, this is hands down the best Russian/Ukrainian restaurant in Los Angeles. After trying many others, nothing else even comes close. Highly recommend!

Everything, I mean everything is delicious. We ordered a lot of food (including the borscht, chicken + beef pelmeni, cabbage salad, etc.) and every one of the dishes had a unique flavor. The plates and bowls were so cute too! β€οΈ Highly recommend. Also, thank GOD for the gas heaters outside, made the ambience super cozy and comfortable despite being chilly outside.

Had a wonderful breakfast here! The shakshuka and avocado toast were both excellent, and the bread was incredibly fresh and flavorful. The greens tasted super fresh as well. The outdoor seating area is relaxing, comfortable, and perfect for enjoying a meal. Highly recommend this place if youβre looking for a great breakfast spot!

Stopped by Momβs and absolutely loved it. The place is small, cozy, and super charming without feeling overcrowded. Service was quick, everyone was incredibly friendly, and I liked being able to order at the counter and then relax outside to get my food (they have some indoor seating as well). They even had heaters on the patio, which made the cool weather feel extra cozy.
One great option is their frozen take-home meal selection so you can cook some of their dishes at home later. Everything felt thoughtful and welcoming, and the food selection was fantastic. Definitely a spot Iβd come back to again.
