Как то довелось попробовать ваши вкуснятины. Понравилось ВСЕ!! И салатик и запеченая рыба и блинчики с красной и черной икрой. А особенно торт Медовик! Все вкусно, как домашняя еда. Словно к маме в гости приехала. Очень рекомендую.

We love the food, atmosphere and the service, the only thing we would like to change is the recipe of cabbage rolls, it should be more meat then rice, the one we had mostly had rice. Thank you for consideration.

Excellent service. Very nice atmosphere. The food was good but not exceptional in my opinion but others in my party loved their food. The lavender lemonade was wonderful.

I’ve heard about SMETANA sometime ago but haven’t had the chance to visit until now. The food was delicious, made to order! Service was excellent! The borscht was spectacular and tasted just like at home, the pork kebab was tasty and tender! It’s a very cozy cafe bar, it gets packed quickly so make sure to make a reservation! I highly recommend this cafe to anyone looking for good European food!

Delicious, home-made, there are very few places like this, I recommend it to everyone, the shawarma is very edible, dumplings too, borscht in general, my respects, better than most restaurants in Chicago, the waitress girl is pleasant, polite, neat and she has cool tattoos))
