    Unfortunately, this was a very disappointing experience. I am originally from Russia, so I was…read morelooking forward to authentic Russian food, but the borscht did not taste traditional at all. It tasted as though it had been made from frozen vegetables on a fly rather than with fresh vegetables, and it lacked the flavor and quality that I used to. There is no seating at the restaurant. All of the food was brought out to our car, which was unexpected and made the experience feel more like a takeout pickup than dining at a restaurant. The service was also disappointing. Nina came across as rude and very pushy, and the menu was sent by text message instead of being provided at the restaurant, which felt unusual. What surprised me the most was the price. We were charged $4.50 for a single piece of bread, and it wasn't even fresh. In total, we paid about $70 for three bowls of borscht and three pieces of bread, which was far too expensive for the quality of the food we received. As someone who grew up with traditional Russian cuisine, I was especially disappointed because the borscht did not taste authentic. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this restaurant. We were group of three and each of us was very disappointed.

    Holy WOW! Small establishment in Homer- not a ton of seating but enough. Seat yourselves, they come…read moretake your order. The service was excellent! We started with apps- the Fresh Rolls (vegetarian/vegan) are done beautifully, but the star was the cilantro herb dressing/dip on the side was amazing- I tried to get the recipe but they weren't giving it up! I'd buy it by the bottle! The crab Rangoon were enjoyed (I don't eat them but two of the diners ate them all and loved them). The steam pork dumplings were delicious- tender, flavorful, not gummy at all. Light but filling! For main meals- Clear Tom Yum soup with shrimp: excellent flavor! Lots of shrimp and mushrooms and the perfect balance of heat and flavor. I adore good Tom Yum and struggle to find it on the Peninsula but this is one of the two best I've had worldwide. Pad Chow Mein- we got one chicken and one pork. The meat was a touch dry, but there was a decent amount of nice, light broth/sauce in the bottom. The noodles were perfect and tons of great veggies. Pad Prik Gluer Tofu- I'm not a tofu fan and even I loved this! The crispy shallots/onions were amazing (also needs to be sold by the buck!) and overall just killer flavor. Garlic Chicken- this one has some allergies so they made sure to leave off soy/gluten for us. The fried garlic on top was wonderful and the perfect texture addition, and everything was fresh and steamed perfectly. The Thai Iced Teas were fantastic as well, rich and creamy and still light. A simple Jasmine hot tea worked nicely for the rest of us. We will be back and will definitely be bringing friends. Large portions, excellent quality and great service- The whole Peninsula needed this place!

    This place is amazing!…read more Everything was fresh, hot and beautifully prepared and served! The calamari was unique, I was expecting rings , and instead had big slices. Tender and delicious. Next were eg rolls, piping hot, and full of cabbage and other veggies. I ordered the Ginger Chicken, not too spicy and they delivered exactly what I asked for. It was flavorful, hot and exactly what I wanted. Homer is killin it!
