a taste of europe

i like this place. thefoodwas great only surpassed by the beauty of the surrounding art and gift items, which made me want to buy up the whole store. it was a great experience and thefoodcame very fast but it might have only seemed like that because time flies when you are looking at all the gifts

thefoodwas wonderful!!! we especially enjoyed the nutella crepes- just like what we had in paris! my only complaint is waiting for drink refills and the ticket.

if you are looking for a fancy, gourmet russian dining experience look elsewhere; however, if you are looking for a very good, home style cooking russian meal, this is the place. 
thefoodwas good enough to bring back fond memories of my grandparents.  the service was attentive and seamless.  the atmosphere was pleasant and conducive to a good dining experience,
we selected sampler platters.  the portions were generous, and everything was fresh.  the crepes with russian preserves (black currant) were a fantastic finish to the meal.
browsing through the goods on sale inevitably lead to purchases of sweets and russian keepsakes.
i am looking forward to patronizing this establishment in the future.

first time, and it's delicious!. this is the first time i've tried eastern europeanfood(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 comfortfoodin 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 ourfoodwas.

the restaurant is also part store as well, and there were a lot of eastern european decor 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.

very good.foodwas excellent. great variety of eastern europe food. very clean place and friendly staff.

my wife and i have been visiting this place for over 8 years now. thefoodis fresh and honest, the atmosphere unique, and the owners are delightful people. my favorites are the red caviar crepes, cold borscht soup, and the cabbage rolls.

real food. four diners, four great cups of cold borscht, four substantial entrees, and drinks...$80 with tax. eastern europeanfoodis, 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.

abspurely amazing!foodwas wonderful and the service was great! definitely will come back for more!

great place for russian food!. this place is great. the atmosphere is amazing and thefoodis delicious. i especially love the moscow salad and the pelmeni. the borscht is fantastic too. it's not only a restaurant but it is also a deli and a gift store. lots of matryoshkas, cool jewelry and military goods. fun place to go.

great russian cuisine. i love this place for its warm atmosphere, great food, and fairly priced shopping. i found a wide variety of impressive eastern european relics, 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 deliciousfoodin 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.
