Rus Uz

I came for the nostalgic experience, and I’ve got it for the lack of other places offering it. The menu is great, but it’s not greatly executed. The service is great, but the staff doesn’t smile that made me feel a bit intimidated. I loved a cozy atmosphere, relaxing music and cooking shows on the tv.

Excellent food! A mix of Uzbek & Russian cuisine of which I'm a huge fan. Portions are generous but not huge. Everyone loved what they ordered. This is near the Ballston metro so parking at night can be tight so plan accordingly. We made a reservation for a Sat. night - place was busy but not packed. Probably best to reserve a table just in case. Highly recommend.

The food is authentic, we tried the borsch (good flavor, but could use more meat), the pelmeni (pretty standard, generous portions) and the beef blini (which is pan-fried). The service was quick, but not overly friendly. I would come back to the plov and other dishes. Lovely dinnerware from Uzbekistan, too.

This is the best place to have your lunch or dinner. Very pleasant place to be at. Very nice and friendly people.

Always so tastey, staff is always so nice
