I normally don’t spend so much on myself at restaurants I’ve never been to but the smell convinced me I was in a good place. I had the Steamed Vareniki and the Shashlik Lamb. What really won me over was the server for our table. Alex is wonderful. He was a great communicator, recommended some delish dishes, and we had a great time because of him. Ask for Alex if you go to the Glenview location!!

A little disappointed. Came in at 1115 for lunch and was told they were still in the breakfast phase???? Wanted lunch but had to have breakfast. Lunch started at 1145. Food was still good

So good!!!! We got borscht, shorpo lamb, guro lagman (a handpulled noodle dish with lamb), boorsok (little pillows of fried dough), and plov, and everything was amazing. Very cute and comfortable interior, most tables have a booth side, friendly and quick service from our server Sabina. Reasonable prices for very large portion sizes. The guro lagman was a total standout. We will be back here the next time we’re in Chicago!
