  • Porto Maltese
    I once took two friends out to this restaurant, and it was RUR12,000 with wine, by far the most I have ever spent on a meal in my life. But it was worth it. We picked out our fish from the display, the wine, while expensive, was an excellent compl[...]
  • Palkin
    I dined there with a couple of other people in 2005. When the waiter brought my fish to the table, I discovered that it was not fileted. I am very sloppy at fileting fish, so when I asked if he would do it for me, he graciously and expertly splice[...]
  • Chainny Dom (Tea House)
    I used to wonder if this place was the neighborhood head shop. It must have been the hookah pipes on display in the windows, as the clientele was not the sort, nor was the menu. A nice place to spend a Saturday or Sunday afternoon in the autumn or [...]
  • Abrikosov
    There has been a cafe in this spot since Soviet times. The service is excellent and the prices reasonable, considering it's at the heart of Nevsky. A good tourist spot where the menu's are in English and the waitresses will all speak at least a bi[...]

    The icebreaker Krassin is the best way to feel the history of Russia. You can see the changes of the centuries in this museum. Also it is the best way to see the city from the upper deck and to feel yourself as a real seaman!!![...]
  • Liverpool
    My impression of the place was exactly the same as Lisa's and I would not recommend it. We went in there hoping to watch the World Cup final, and ordered our drinks at the bar. We were about to find a table to sit down, when we were approached by an[...]
