For an over-the-top dining/drinking experience head here. On Mon-Fri between 5-7pm it's 'Vodka Hour' where you can taste 2 vodkas for $14; stay for dinner and opt for one of their vodka cocktails. Read more

Stunning place and excellent service. Try their Boeuf a la Stroganoff is absolutely delicious, the meat melt in your mouth... To finish ask for the St. Petersburg tea.

The Russian Tea Room remains a special place. Check out their afternoon tea over the weekend, which comes in regular, gluten free, and vegetarian. Read more

Been here for restaurant week, a real bargain if you ask me. The food was great, and the atmosphere is super unique, feels a bit like eating in a museum 😏

Love the setting and great for afternoon tea with your little guy! It’s A LOT of food! The kids afternoon tea menu will leave them full.

If you wanna try something delicious in a very Russian environment, come here! The service, food and the place is great. Russian with love is just delicious!

Beef stroganoff is served with short rib steak on top of noodles! If you are a sweet person definitely try blintz
N. S.December 7, 2018
The beef stroganoff is hands down one of my favorite things I’ve ever eaten. Worth the visit and the expense for that stroganoff alone.
CamilleSeptember 21, 2014
High tea is so much fun! Delicious sandwiches and desserts. Better option than dinner in my opinion.
Hailey NguyenOctober 22, 2017
Nice tea selection and desserts. The interior is quite grand and suitable for special occasions
Gilt CityJune 29, 2011
Try the Cavitini with Imperial Vodka made from wheat and rye served dry, chilled and up with 10-grams Hackleback Caviar and olives. It's a classic Russian cocktail and absolutely delicious.
Anna KhanNovember 25, 2012
Teas are amazing. Try to come for the afternoon tea where you get scones and pastries. Decor is very lavish and old Russian. Def a nyc must see.
Lebedeva NatashaJanuary 20, 2012
Sasha is the best waiter for Russian customers, and it's not that many of them at all! This place has the least Russian food, but nice atmosphere and good service. Try the pancakes with red fish

Try the High Tea with Mint Tea. Very nice place to know, with very beautiful furniture and decoration.
Jinnie LNovember 11, 2014
very nice♥ friendly service. we had chocolate pyramid & cheese cake (really rich) with some nice tea~ :)
James GoochOctober 2, 2019
Nice food - the Borscht is amazing and the mains were tasty. The dining room is very pretty too...but everything is so overpriced.
KaiMarch 5, 2014
Delicious food...Great service and a beautiful ambiance. My birthday was just right
Zoe CareyOctober 13, 2019
Cool to see the interior decor, but the afternoon tea is beyond average. The cupcakes tasted like they were from a multipack at the local deli. Just come to have a drink and then eat elsewhere.
Petra LynchJanuary 18, 2016
Brunch was excellent though it took a while to even get our drinks. The kids loved the pancakes and the French toast.
Toad MushroomDecember 8, 2013
ESCARGOT: delicious - slices of garlic were a great touch to the dish, but not amazing due to excess use of salt.
Lidia DonajFebruary 18, 2014
That was a very nice stop on our way to Carnegie hall. Very impressive decor and good choice of food.

went for their prefix for groupon, service was great and food was on point!
Chrissy KJuly 29, 2016
Drinks are a bit on the pricier side but their Moscow mule was pretty good. Food is good, nothing fancy or out of the extraordinary

Established 1927 by former Russian Imperial Ballet members. Crossed the street 1929 to brownstone from 1875. Building remodeled in 2006, retaining restaurant as original. Frequented by celebrities.

Georgios KouritasNovember 21, 2014
High Tea, nibbles, cherries and gin in a very eccentric and decadent parlour
Mrs LOctober 23, 2010
Was here once late at night in high school. Remember it being very fancy inside w/a pink motif. I love tea and caviar, would be nice to go back soon.

The Duck Blini is to die for. Also the Czar's ice cream nougat with 14k gold is amazing

The borscht is delicious!
naveenDecember 2, 2011

Great for a brunch in sumptuous setting!

Try the Chocolate Pyramid Dessert. It will make you happy! Almost as happy as seeing JACKIE will make you. :-)
Toad MushroomDecember 8, 2013
CAVIAR TASTING: sour cream was overpowering. otherwise, this dish was satisfactory.
G TMarch 30, 2018
Try the vodka flight and let the bartender choose.

Awesome. Kiev chicken is a God's gift.
James John (Jay) Cudney IVFebruary 7, 2019
Good service. Winter restaurant week. Tasty. Great decor.
Randy HensleyMay 30, 2011
Borscht is amazing. Stroganoff is very special and one beautiful room. Service was excellent
Karl SchubertFebruary 17, 2013
The French Onion Soup was OK; the Beef Stroganoff would have been good (though way overpriced) if it hadn't been *so* overwhelmed with the truffle. It was so strong it was nauseating. Avoid, too $$$
Jane EyreJanuary 18, 2015
Not what I pictured it as... Love the bear fish tank on the second floor
Susan HollandMay 29, 2010
Went for lunch before a matinee show at the Belasco Theater. Had the Beef Stroganoff. The tables are so close together but the place is quite beautiful.
