   It was my first time dining here and the food was amazing, I suggest the Baked Alaska for dessert. The service is the best, It was worth every penny.

   Old school elegance and charm, our lunch there was everything we could have wanted from this Grande Dame of a restaurant. Style, ambience, impeccable friendly service and delicious food…. Nothing disappointed.

   This is not the Russian Tea Room I have loved for 60+’years 5 My favorite borscht was watery and had no chucks of beef ~ The chicken Kiev was impossible to cut and what happened to the waiter cutting thru so the butter streamed out?

    Iconic NYC establishment. Beautiful atmosphere. But for the price tag, the food fell flat. No way should this be $150 pp for afternoon tea. At that price I expect the food to be as amazing as the restaurant itself and unfortunately it did not.
