Nina and her cafe / gift shop are unique, fun, and intimidating. All are getting older, dustier, and crustier- but a treat just the same. The sign on the building said "open" when we arrived but the door was locked and no one in sight. By the time I read all the notes on the door, Nina drove up from her house across the road. She got out of her car and asked if we came to look or eat- if it was just to look she wasn't going to open for us. "Lucky" for us we came to eat. She opening the door, told us to "take your shoes off" and we followed her to the inner sanctum gift shop / roped off special seating place. She explained the menu and that we would need a reservation for the "full Russian experience" given at the special seating place. The menu had 5 or 6 items but 3 weren't available unless you had a reservation. Nina cooked us borcht, pel'meni, homemade fireweed bread, fireweed tea, and dessert- all were tasty. We sat in the cafe area in front and Nina passed us our food thru a window to her kitchen area. We were the only people there but Nina is having trouble walking so we didn't mind getting up and serving ourselves. Bring your reading glasses cause every time we asked Nina a question, she pulled out some paper or brochure and told us to read about it. She has signs and printed info everywhere. Turns out she has a masters degree in electrical engineering. She also has a doctorate in money extraction- but was worth the experience. Would I go back? Probably not. Do I regret going? Absolutely not!!!

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.
