Best Eastern European Restaurants in Astoria

Last time I went there was years ago. The head waiter remembered me. He was extremely attentive to every table. He should get the best head waiter award of the year in NYC. His dedication to his profession is truly special. Food was delicious before but now it became bombastic great . Real Russian tea w real cherry jam is served as it should be but other places do not bother to do. I could just keep eating so much food there! Wine selection became more of my taste also. They have Cremant and St. Emilion. ( not vodka drinker. So I can’t say anything about it . But just observing others drinking, vodka must be good ) Music was lively and so much fun. Some people and I were actually dancing. Ambience is very romantic and cute w red lamp like old White Russian emigrants era in 1920’s or something. Very interesting artwork on wall. ( next time I shall take break from eating and observe them carefully) I made myself note that whenever I go to theaters I should always eat there.

Food was great! The vodka infusions are a must. We had the cranberry! Delicious! Our son also tried the horseradish and garlic pepper infusions and really enjoyed them. Overall a great experience!

Great food! Loved the ambiance. Overall good experience and will be back.

Waiters are excellent, ambience is gorgeous, the food is too salty.. but that can be my personal taste. Rest of the taste of each dish is on point otherwise.
