I recently dined at Russian House with a friend and we have differing opinions about our experience. Here's a summary of our thoughts: The restaurant has a fun atmosphere...

First time diner for Sunday brunch. Authentic food, premium vodka selections, attentive service, casual environment and a funky vibe.

My work crew came here for dinner this past Friday and it was the most fun meal experience ive probably ever had. Great place for special occasion/memorable evening with friends or coworkers. The bartender was the best and our server was really sweet and wanted to make sure we knew what we were ordering etc. WHAT TO KNOW: Come with patience and a sense of humor and adventure. We tried all kinds of things, some we liked, some we didn’t, but I knew it would be like that going in. Make sure to order a drink at the bar when you get there and bring it to your table, then order another round as soon as you sit down, or you’ll have a big gap between your first and second drink (lots of places are like this so NBD). What to order: for drinks, ask for the special color changing cocktail with the sweet pea/cucumber infused vodka and soda. It was AMAZING. The dill Infused vodka with the salmon caviar was recommended by our server and was a perfect combo. The BORSCH!!! So good!! I want some now!! The khinkali dumplings were so yummy AND very instagrammable. The julienne was also really good. The stroganoff was kind of tough so I’d skip that, but other folks liked it. That’s something I make regularly at home so I may be a little partial to my own recipe. All in all, it was the BEST meal experience and my group could not stop talking about it.
