We chose this Tsob-Tsobe! cafe because it had a big screen and no sound during the game. A few days in advance, we arranged for our group to use our own audio so we could enjoy lunch while watching the World Cup Final. Unfortunately, that is not what happened. When our group of 17 people arrived, everything was different from what had been agreed. The restaurant kept its background music on, making it impossible to hear the game commentary or follow what was happening on the field. Besides our group, there were only about 8 other people in the restaurant, and none of them objected to us listening to the match. Our audio was kept at a low volume, much quieter than the restaurant's music. To make matters worse, at lunchtime several dishes listed on the menu were unavailable. Our visit was disappointing. While a few dishes were good, much of the food was average and not worth the price. What stood out even more was the service. The staff was not welcoming or friendly, and they seemed unwilling to accommodate a reasonable request that had been arranged in advance. Instead of making us feel like valued guests, they made us feel like an inconvenience. Unfortunately, the combination of average food, poor hospitality, and the failure to honor our reservation arrangements means we won't be returning. read more

Took our family here for a Thanksgiving dinner. The place was packed, not an empty table in sight! We pre-ordered a banquet menu and a whole turkey. Food was delicious, service - attentive, and overall our experience was very positive. However, it seemed Tsob Tsobe catered to a more mature audience, and when live music started, all of the kids and grandkids finished their meals and begged to leave. I hoped they'd play more dancing music and kids staying later. Oh well... One small complaint - there is only one bathroom stall in the ladies room, so at times the wait was longer than desired. read more

There was a dead rat in my food. I asked them to replace it they refused and said I have to pay for another one. Please don't go here. Waiter was really rude I asked for the manager they said that I will have to get another one I ended up paying for 2 items read more

Like this place a lot, have been coming here years. Love the rustic authentic ambiance and feeling. The waitstaff is very attentive and add to the pleasant experience. BYOB with a cork fee, but at least you will be drink what you like. They do offer a full bar if you forgot to get the bottle earlier. The food is always on point, and the selections are vast. From meats to fish to the appetizers, everything is tasty. Great for small or larger groups. One negative is looking for parking, don't know if they have valet. Solid 4 stars, every time it's consistent Come hungry leave happy Keep eating, keep living!!! read more

We ate here to celebrate a birthday and it was such a good time. We ordered a lot of cold appetizers such as salads, cold cuts, a soup and wings to start. They brought out bread that was warm and looked pretty tasty. I ordered a shrimp kebab with rice and salad. Everything was so delicious, including their fruit punch. The shrimp had some sort of extra seasoning on it. Portions were good as well. For desert I had vanilla ice cream with a shot of espresso (off-menu). The ice cream had a little ice in it but otherwise was alright. They even came out with a birthday sign and a bunch of flashing stuff. Our waiter didn't quite know what a gluten allergy was but he was very accommodating and checked in to make sure I could eat certain things. All of the staff were lovely and the decor is really cute as well. The fish tank video behind the stage is kind of funny too. My one and only thing that as unappealing was the strong smell of urine in the women's bathroom despite the bathroom looking very clean so it could be that it just seeped into the wood flooring (not the best choice of material). I definitely would love to come back here read more

Been there a few times. I'd go there for their specialty is the meat. The owner is very friendly and proud of his establishment.

Obsoletely amazing food and atmosphere. This is our second time at this restaurant and we will definitely come back again. Their meats are so good, you want to eat your fork with it. Appetizers are good size and very tasty. Excellent customer service! We were a party of 12 and our good was served very fast. Highly recommend this wonderful Georgian restaurant! read more

Pleasantly surprised. Came here for lunch on a Saturday; honestly, had no expectations. 5 stars all around - lovely decor, attentive service, yummy food. Tried: - Calf liver appetizer - Warm brussel sprouts salad with grilled cheese - A vegetarian kutabi - Khinkali (Note: price is per piece, but minimum order is 5) - Napoleon cake Stuck to warm appetizers and enjoyed every bite. Recommend! Would be curious to return for dinner and try their main dishes. read more

Time for another review... Well... This review I was about to post on November 2020... it didn't go true... Where should I start.... K, so The Food Is ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS 5+. THE HOOKAH... Litarly the best I have ever had... highly recomend!!!... But the BAD SERVICE OVER TAKEN IT ALL!.. From the second we sit, we had a feeling the waiters Avoid us at all cost, the hookah took almost 20 min to come out but that was freaking amazing... Not even once any waiter came to out table to check on us. No eye contact, nothing he coming to survive 1 table and ( like a hours with no visibility on the peripheral vision At all ) we felt like we back in school raising hand so many he someone will be kind enough to see us ! read more

My order arrived after a hour (as they predicted) in a tsobe tsobe small delivery car. I ordered the Beyond Burger, which came with curly fries, and a java chip frappe. They gave me $5 off on seamless for my first order so my total came out to be a bit less than $20, including delivery and all the other fees. It was sealed very well, the brown paper bag was stapled so many times that I had a slightly hard time opening it. But hey! They were protecting any spillages or mishaps along the way, which is great. It came with utensils, ketchup, and mustard packets. When I opened the brown box, the aromatic smell just flew right in my face. I wanted to devour my meal immediately. I thoroughly enjoyed my java chip frappe. It was exactly what I expected and craved. There were chips and an overall chocolate flavor, followed by a bearable hint of bitterness. It was my first time trying the infamous beyond burger, which is supposedly plant based but is as good as beef. I got it medium cooked. It does have some juice in it as does traditional patties. Maybe because I knew it was different, that just sat in the back of my mind and made me feel weird afterwards (which is why I gave it a 4). I wish I got it cooked more and that there was a piece of cheese on it. I don't think think i'd get it again but it definitely is a healthy alternative. The curly fries were super good though!! I would definitely try this place again because of their extensive menu. Their cheesecake pancakes sound super cool so I think that's what i'll be getting next time :) read more

I truly enjoyed their food but their new cook doesn't know how to cook. And this place is not cheap at all!! That's the pancakes they sent me!! It's unacceptable!! That person should be fired. The chicken is very dry and burnt too. The burger they delivered to me yesterday was burnt and ve eh salty as well. But I gave them another chance for some reason. I am very disappointed. read more

Shout out to the waiter who accommodated me, by making A breakfast entrée at dinner time, but that is a very small fraction of what a restaurant dining experience should be. Went here with my girl, for our monthly dinner meet up. Our entrees were visually on-point (albeit her stomach started rumbling after the end of her dinner. By the evening she was incapacitated and I wasn't much better the next day) My issue lies with the fact that the kitchen would not take back a barely touched wrongly made hummus.( Hummus by the way requires tahini!) However- the travesty which earns them two stars was tacking on a bread fee of 3.00(?) plus a gratuity charge for 2 diners. We weren't asked if we needed any food accommodations, accompaniment, ketchup for my fries was never offered, and the waitstaff- other than giving us our meals-was completely absent. My goodness- The restaurant industry really has gone down because people don't know what the term service and experience mean. Too bad we won't return for the level of pettiness-eggs were legit. ----------- Update- importance of being a smart diner is knowing what to order in a particular establishment. My friend ordered meat- i'm sure they have improperly stored food read more

I placed a phone order after looking at their menu on Seamless. The Seamless menu had a listing for Pierogi with Potato and Crispy Fried Pierogi with Potato. I ordered "Pierogi with Potato" after seeing the picture of boiled pierogi on their Seamless listing, safe in the knowledge the fried pierogi was listed separately. When my order arrived, I got fried pierogi. Deep-fried, not even pan-fried. The restaurant refused to replace the order when we called to explain the situation. Their menu online had two clearing listings. If it needed to be clarified, the person take the order had the duty to do that. Unfortunate service and I can't eat deep-friend food so it all was a waste. read more

I'd like to start off by saying how this place it's a scam you guys falsely advertise your food online and show completely different pictures from what you really give! I ordered a truffle pizza for 2495 looks very delicious online when I received it I literally received a 7 inch frozen baby pizza that had a few slices of truffles that you come to soaked in a jar! I called and asked to speak with the manager as he was rudely trying to defend this pizza and saying something in his language about where income from!! This was horrible service he was saying that it's a 10 inch personal pizza how it clearly states online! Well it does not state any of that on grubhub or seamless or yelp and I did measure it and it's a rough 7 inches it's not worth the $33 that I had to spend to get this to me this is all I ordered this is disgusting that you guys take frozen pizza and do this! I will show a picture of what they post online and a picture of what I received! According to other peoples reviews it's clear to see that they're trying to save money on their portions and clearly they are falsely advertising their food is pizza was disgusting and literally is going into the garbage!!! read more

Very nice place, great food, quiet and welcoming decor. Attentive and friendly waiters, which is a big plus in Brooklyn.

I met Vadim while on assignment in front of the restaurant. We spoke for a bit, and after the work was done, he invited me in for a bite to eat. After being outside, amidst the horns, noise, yelling... the constant movement of people... Vadim escorts me in, and I stood in awe... I was not expecting to see what I saw... Rich, dark wood beams with warm plaster walls and stone... vaulted ceiling... organic... thick wooden tables with wide back chairs... it was stunning. A polar opposite from the outside, and made me feel like I stepped into a grotto... Vadim supplies me with an iPad... an interactive menu. I instantly see the items are cross-country... a little bit of East... a little bit of West... some separate, some combined. I ask him what one of his "hot sellers" is, and he responded "The Lamb "Lula" Kebab". I agreed. What came to the table... two generous kebabs of ground lamb, mixed with exotic spices, wrapped around a skewer (removed prior to serving), and cooked over a charcoal grill. Saffron basmati rice (I assume basmati) with a lovely assortment of mixed greens. Vadim also served me a ramekin of this home-made "barbecue" sauce, tomato based that was a bit on the spicy side... and it worked perfectly... the spiciness of the sauce balanced out the savory of the kebab, which, by the way, was soft, juicy and tender, without a hint of "gamey" that lamb often provides... The rice was a perfect "Al Dente", as rice goes. A basket of sliced bread came to the table... baked in a Tandoor, this bread had a thin, crisp crust, medium density with a semi-tight crumb... lovely bread. The meal in itself was exemplary. Flavors were on point. Now... speaking as a person whose favorite hobby is "eating", I will say that the overall experience was stellar. I fully understand you can get a burger, or a kebab, or a tuna filet in any place that you choose... But it's the ambiance, the attention to detail, the service that makes it an experience. Vadim is a man of principle. A man of integrity. A man with a passion, that shows through the food, and the restaurant itself... I will be returning for sure... read more

Placed an order for delivery. Shrimps in white sauce with rice on a side. And a fresh juice. They forgot the juice- the guy redelivered it to me later when i finished my food. And the best part is the shrimp portion- its freaking Six small pieces! Are you serious? It's not enough to even feed a baby! Other places are more generous... and the taste wasn't something special. read more

While we've visited this restaurant on various other occasions and have yet to leave unsatiafied - current review is of tonight's delivery order. The quality of food is pretty good - Georgian soup (kharcho) had a nice flavor though could have been a bit thicker - it's possible that it was the last of it today (they did call to let us know that they no longer had the soup we originally ordered). The avocado salad and the Uzbeki plov were also good ... the calf's liver, well ... for $11.75 I'd say either the driver ate 2/3 of the order on the way or they simply forgot to put it in the dish because for 16 cubes for $11.75 is a rip off to say the least. Overall we noted that while prices remain the same, portions offered at the restaurant are significantly bigger (fuller I'd say) than what's delivered and for that the food is seriously overpriced. Such disappointment .... read more

I usually don't go out of my way to bash a business in my local community but I am extremely disappointed in how my last experience was on Saturday night, don't let the swanky decor fool you. After being taken care of by valet ($5) , the nasty manager first asked with a snarky tone if my friend and I had reservations. We told him we didn't but we hoped he can squeeze in two people. He rolled his eyes and offered the bar only until further notice( bar was tiny) since we wanted hookah and he claimed all the other tables were reserved. This restaurant doesn't put reserved signs on the tables they just follow a lousy notebook so its hard to tell if he was being truthful, i felt like he didn't want our business; but sure enough after he saw the sad look on our faces he put us at a table that could seat up to four but smoking section was non existent here. The waitress we had was really nice and friendly but didn't speak good English. I also was so angry that the restaurant was extremely cold, we asked why the heat wasn't on and the waitress said she doesn't know, and she didn't bring it to the managers attention ( its funny how the fireplace was on and we still froze) i saw people sit in their jackets. What blew my mind since I've last been here is how drastic the menu has changed , they took off the classic favorites, no more samsa manti , kutabi or large burrata salad over fresh greens. I saw it was mostly kebab and grilled meat dishes along with simple green and Mediterranean salads and seafood. The theme of this place is unclear, was it turkish or uzbek at a time or pure russian or simply a grill based menu, nobody freakin knows. We decided to try the burrata caprese salad without greens, fried calamari and chicken wings. Sounds simple right? Ha i guess not. First they said they dont serve wings anymore then they said they only serve them before 6 for lunch but we asked if she could plead with the chef and sure enough it was made. Whats sad is that we had to send the fried calamari to the kitchen because it was soggy cold and the breading came off the rings, its like they threw it in the microwave for two seconds and bam. We made them throw it back in the deep fryer to make it crispy as it should. The wings were sad tiny and oily with no blue cheese available so pathetic, they also gave us the same sweet chili sauce used for calamari so its like they had no options period. My blackberry sangria was really pleasant though it tasted like summer and the burrata salad was fresh with pesto and the cheese oozed. By the way dont expect bread to start with unless you want to pay $3, that's ridiculous . For main dish we got lamb kebabs platter to share which came over a hot tortilla, rice and pickled items and tiny adjika sauce. The meat was seasoned well but was hard to chew, it was over cooked. The rice was a nice long grain but so so bland i had to add lots of salt. Everything i tasted felt like it was not made with love or care. I got so upset that i skipped dessert. When we were ready to smoke we asked what areas of the restaurant were available to sit to do so and it seemed odd that all of a sudden we were allowed to smoke, this only happened after the table behind us demanded hookah there too. The policies of this restaurant is so unclear. I was happy but confused. We liked how large the variety was but guess what half those flavors weren't available, gee shocking , so no watermelon chill or ice blueberry. We got ice Citrus mint almost a half hour later and it came with a nicely lit ice cube but the tobacco burned fast so the hookah didn't last that long , and to get a refill on coal was forever. The entertainment here is atrocious, doesn't matter what language the man and woman sang, they sucked in both russian and english it was better off with a dj. They were loud, off beat, awkward and kinda corny with 75 percent russian love slow dancing songs. Maybe one good song was lets get loud by jlo, ps the dance-floor is tiny. For my large bill of $130 with service charge included for hookah ( yes even if its two people you pay a hefty charge) I seriously would not return. Adios! read more

Tsobe Tsobe, where do I start. More over-hyped Turkish/Russian/Central Asian Cuisine in Southern Brooklyn. After trying this place many times, I've officially given up on it. Sure the place looks nice inside and out but the reality is that it's an overall disappointment in almost every department other than decor. As a Yelper I wanted to spare this place a bad review. That was until tonight when I ordered delivery from them hoping for the best. $20 + tip for lamb ribs, lamb lula and vegetable kebab salad that was actually supposed to be Baba ghanoush. No rice, no bread, no napkins and enough food to feed a 9 year old. Skip this place, save your money and don't waste your time. read more

I was at this restaurant for the birthday party celebration - there was a "banquet" preordered, so I don't know all the names of the dishes but I'll try to describe them. The decor of the restaurant is pretty nice, there are pictures of goats on every wall. The tables were set up for banquet when we arrived. All the staff at the restaurant were extremely nice and helpful. The appetizers that I tried were the following: - fish cold cuts - smoked salmon and 2 kinds of white fish. All of them were really good - meat cold cuts - one of them looked like dry meat - it was very tasty. There was also ham or bacon served that I didn't try - liver pate was great, but it wasn't as delicate as fois gras - tomato/ cucumber salad - I love cucumbers so I went for it. The dressing was very plain - pickled grapes/ tomatoes - these were ok as well. It was my first time to try pickled grapes and it was a great combination of sweet and pickle taste. - thee were also several salads with mayo - I believe one of them had greens and beef tongue and the other one had pineapples, but I haven't tried them. The combination of ingredients didn't seem appealing to me. For entrees we had kebabs - these were good. I expected lamb kebab to be a little more juicy, but it was ok. Ground beef kebab was not impressive. Chicken was ok. Salmon entree with mashed potato patties was also ok. I can't really describe the flavor - I guess they were plain... For dessert I had a tiramisu, again it was very decent. Overall, the food was good, but nothing distinctive. The service was great! read more

Surprisingly delicious. The staff are super courteous and helpful. There is outdoor seating for warm summer nights, but Coney Island Ave is always busy, noisy, dirty, and dusty, so I suggest seating inside. Tuesday's are caraoke nights. They have two separate restaurant rooms. One specifically for those who enjoy screaming their lungs out during caraoke nights and another one for the rest of guests who want to enjoy the night in peace. Spacious place. Nice, relaxed ambiance. Modern decor, good lighting, pleasant modern background music. Much much better than the average that you will usually find in Russian Brooklyn areas. Order food on an iPad, which helps since you can look at photos and judge about portion sizes and ingredients. I've tried almost everything on the menu. The prices are amazing for the portions and the high quality of food. All their meats are delicious so you can never go wrong there. Their fish kebabs and dishes are amazing--the smoked fish melts in your mouth. So worth to try it! Salads are made of super fresh ingredients so you won't be disappointed. My favorite is greens salad with octopus and squid. It's very refreshing and unique. All their hot appetizers are pretty reasonably sized and worth a try--you might be full of a couple of them and even forgo the main dishes. Explore them all and you'll be glad you did. Also don't forgo getting the traditional bread. It's freshly baked, crispy on the outside and perfectly hot and fluffy on the inside. You can eat just a basket of it alone it's so delicious. This place is perfect for any occasion--from dates to birthdays to casual evenings out with friends over delicious food. Definitely recommend and will be back. read more

GLass in food and horrible service from the owner! I use to come here a lot all the way from queens. Yesterday I came with a friend that never tried this kind of food and I was so excited. One of the items thar i ordered was kutab. I had the veggie kutab. At my first bite I felt something glassy in my teeth. And it was a huge piece of GLASS! Like 3 inch, diamond shape sharp on both sides and thick glass! My first reaction was sock. I asked for a manager and showed the piece of glass to my waitress. She immediately took the whole plate (I didn't even had a chance to take a picture of it) we set there for few minutes and she came back apologizing. I was still in shock because in my head were running all the senerious of what could have happened if I bite that in a different direction. I would be in ER bleeding. I asked to speak to the manager and I was informed there is no manager in but the owner is in the kitchen. At no point the OWNER did not think it will be appropriate to talk to us. We were quite and did not want to make a scene. I kept asking our waitress if he is planning to give us an explanation and the understanding was:no He never showed his face, even though I saw him passing by the kitchen several times and looking at me and our table. Now I understand that mistakes happen and we both lucky that I didn't bite on the sharp sides of that thick glass. What's bothered me most was the fact that he never even came to apologize. The owner of the establishment that saw the glass that was in my food. Ohh and he gave us la ousy 20% off the bill. $19 off to be exact. The whole experience was so unprofessional and disrespectful. Me and my friends are never coming back. read more
