About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Fancy
For ninety-nineth years, New York's defining cultural moments have taken place at Russian Tea Room. Ever since members of the Russian Imperial Ballet founded the restaurant in 1926, it has been a second home for boldface names and the intellectual elite-an exclusive enclave where actors, writers, politicians, and businessmen planned their next deals and feted their friends' latest Carnegie Hall performances.

    We dined on a Monday night and chose the pre theatre menu. Borscht was excellent, beef stroganoff was tender and a perfect portion size and dessert ( chocolate mousse cake and Ukrainian honey cake) was a generous size and very good. Great ambiance and staff were friendly and highly attentive. Would definitely return.

    You can't find a better setting for a relaxing, comfortable dinner. The staff could not have been more attentive and friendly. They thought my drink was taking too long and apologized probably 4 times (it wasn't even that much of a delay). Will definitely be returning on my next trip to the city.

    Had lovely service. Drinks were very good. Ambience was fun. Bread basket was yummy! Ordered the truffle quiche and was a bit disappointed, lacking in any real taste. But everyone else enjoyed their meal. Over all a positive experience. Definitely pricey.
