a taste of europe

quaint little shop and restaurant all in one: russian, easteuropeanand german cuisine is served here.

i had the rolled cabbage: two large servings with a side of rice in a nice light broth. simply delicious.

not sure sitting in the middle of a souvenir shop with deli cases of meats and cheeses on the other side makes this anything but weird though lol

quaint establishment,friendly owners and excellent cabbage rolls! the shopping is pretty great if you have family members interested ineuropeantoys, models or history,which i do.

first time, and it's delicious!. this is the first time i've tried easterneuropeanfood (seriously!) and it was absolutely delicious!

my husband and i ordered the meat lovers platter, which is meant to feed 2 people. it came with mushroom-stuffed meatloaf topped with gravy, beef stroganoff (no noddles), beef goulash, and fried potatoes. talk about delicious! satisfying and very stick to your ribs. i imagine this to be the equivalent of comfort food in eastern europe. my husband and i just kept saying it was "so good" and "delicious" because there were really no other words for it!

the staff was super friendly, and multiple times throughout our meal, the owner asked to see how we were and how our food was.

the restaurant is also part store as well, and there were a lot of easterneuropeandecor and knick-knacks. we enjoyed looking around while we waited for our meal.

we finished the meal with nutella crepes which were also good, and my husband said they reminded him of the ones he's had while he lived in germany.

needless to say, we'll go back whenever we're down in the dallas area again.

if you are in town for someeuropeandishes then you must, absolutely must, go to taste of europe. their dishes were absolutely splendid. we had the meat lovers platter for two and couldn't think of a better place to eat than here. wonderful customer service and neat shoppe.

real food. four diners, four great cups of cold borscht, four substantial entrees, and drinks...$80 with tax. easterneuropeanfood is, apparently, made for people who really enjoy "hearty". no wimpy spring mix or "sautéed in a light tarragon scented olive oil" here. this stuff had seasoning, mouth feel, and heft. try the hot tea with honey...really fragrant and satisfying. plus, the gift shop makes it a destination, not just great eats.

great russian cuisine. i love this place for its warm atmosphere, great food, and fairly priced shopping. i found a wide variety of impressive easterneuropeanrelics, such as icons, medals, army and navy uniforms, patriotic pins, and a bunch of other things, many of them decades old, yet in excellent condition. there are shelves of books by russian authors as well as current magazines. taste of europe also offers delicious food in the grocery and restaurant parts, all russian cuisine. the perogi, dumplings with potato filling, are to die for! i've been getting them every time i go there ever since i tried them. so good! even the service is great! the owner, mikhail, is always interesting and fun to talk with. the restaurant/shop is one of my favorite spots in arlington.

valentine's day party at taste of europe arlington. live music, great singing, and a magician to boot. top it off with great russian food, we had lucious cabbage rolls and delectible meatloaf stuffed with mushrooms, and dessert, ice cream with russian preserves and a selection ofeuropeancakes, it makes a great way to celebrate valentine's day! the music was made up of exceptional musician's using the cello, violin, keyboard, and vocals. as a finally way of having it all, we were free to browser items of handcrafted merchandise, ranging from jewelry to nesting dolls, russian military items to crystal chandeliers. if you haven't attended one of taste of europe's events, bookmark www.tasteofeuropetx.com, and check out what's going on.
