7 Russian Restaurants You Need To Try In London | Londonist
food menu
The sour soup's popularity in Russia knows no bounds, so it is a good place to start on the bilingual menu at Borschtch N Tears, one of the oldest Russian restaurants in the UK.
You might not think much passing the restaurant's unassuming exterior, but the fittingly rich red decor, low lighting, and live Russian music quickly make you forget the outside world.
Prepare to step out of London and into authentic-as-it-gets Russia at Mari Vanna, one of London's most famous Russian restaurants.
It has a fantastically varied menu carrying your classic mushroom or beef stroganoff and chicken kiev, to tenderised chicken otbivnaya and Russian golubtsy (cabbage rolls with minced meat, rice and herbs cooked in tomato sauce).
For homely Russian cuisine with a sophisticated twist, Zima is a refreshingly unpretentious restaurant that takes the best of small town Russia and places it in Soho.
