    Great meal. Went beyond our expectations. Lots of interesting foods to explore and we are hoping to return and try them soon.

    Lamb Plov. The taste was great, lamb was very tender.

    Fantastic, authentic Russian food at good prices with an extremely friendly staff. I had the lamb plav, I would recommend it to anyone. A great stop for lunch or dinner after a day at Bush Gardens

    When we were in town, last week, we visited Babushka's restaurant. This was the best restaurant choice we made during our entire vacation! The food was very delicious, service was great and atmosphere was amazing! We enjoyed every dish we ordered, and we ordered quite a few of them! Borsch was tasty, Syrniki were the same as my grandma use to make (they were perfect) and all sorts of different Vareniki were just amazing! We will definitely come back, when in town!

    Russian Dumplings

    We had a wonderful dinner trying several different entrees. The chicken Kiev. And stuffed cabbage were our favorites. Our friends tried several glasses of Russian wine and enjoyed them all. The food was authentic and reasonably priced. The restaurant is small so reservations would be recommended.

Where can you go for meals that will satisfy flavor loving omnivores, a couple of vegan millennials, kids with multiple food allergies and the family matriarch who prefers classic meat and three style comfort food? Joan's catering's take out menu fits the bill. We ordered take out meals yesterday and enjoyed a delicious group lunch today. The menu had something for everyone, and lunch was a success with clean plates and full stomachs all around. My partner and I enjoyed the zucchini burrito and stuffed peppers off of the vegan menu while my kids shared sides of allergy friendly brown rice, steamed broccoli, and black beans. Other dishes included fajitas, mojo pork and chicken cordon bleu. The broad appeal of the offerings bring to mind (in a good way) meals I've eaten in corporate cafeterias. Everything was well executed, fresh, and with nice portions. Some highlights included the black beans which were perfectly seasoned as was the steamed broccoli with garlic. I love that whole grains and veggies are prominently featured on the menu, there are plenty of healthy options if that's your preference! Great for a crowd with diverse food preferences like ours and an excellent option for vegan, gluten free, and other special diets.

    The Brisket Shoppe was on today's agenda after I saw they were serving Wagyu Dino Beef Ribs and…read moreBeef Cheeks as their specials. That was all the excuse I needed to make the drive. I've only had beef cheeks one other time, at LeRoy and Lewis in Austin, but I have to give Danny's the edge. They were unbelievably tender, literally melt in your mouth, with incredible flavor. The Wagyu Dino Rib was every bit as impressive. It was absolutely massive with a beautiful bark, the perfect amount of smoke, and so tender it practically fell apart. Of course I couldn't leave without some brisket, and it was just as outstanding as always. I had the chance to chat with Danny, and he and his team are some of the nicest people you'll meet. Their passion for great barbecue is obvious in everything they do. The Brisket Shoppe consistently serves some of the best BBQ I've had anywhere and, in my opinion, it's the best you'll find outside of Texas. Quality meat, cooked low and slow with skill, pride, and passion. It doesn't get much better than that. If you haven't been yet, do yourself a favor and stop by. Pro tip: Order online ahead of time. You'll skip the line, make sure you get exactly what you're after, and avoid the disappointment of them selling out. Trust me... they will sell out.

The turkey is probably the best I've had. Maybe ever. Juicy, seasoned, could have been a giant chicken lol. The brisket was good as well. I went for half moist half lean. It turned out moist and more moist. Next time I'll go lean since its a particularly juicy brisket. The cole slaw was a fresh and crunchy touch of brightness on my heavy plate. The tallow fries had potential but I wish they were crunchier. The bon bons were good (first time having them) but after I ate everything else it was bit rich. I left with the itis but tbh it wasnt too bad which speaks to the quality of the ingredients! Worth a visit.

The staff is friendly, helpful and always with a smile. Their sandwiches are all customizable and I really want to try breakfast one day here.

I've had it for my 21st Birthday (2019) and my college graduation (2020) so far. Their chocolate cake is my FAVORITE cake of all time, and their red velvet and alpine is not to be slept on. There's a lot of seating and parking available as well. It's bright and comfortable, perfect for coming with a large group as well.

I stopped in for a quick breakfast and ordered The Yankee (pastrami, scrambled egg whites, and cheese on an English muffin), a side of breakfast potatoes, and one of their cream cheese brownies. The standout was easily the breakfast sandwich. The English muffin was one of the best I've ever had. Fresh, soft, and clearly made with care. It was also a bit larger than your typical English muffin, and honestly, the bread was so good that I found myself taking the pastrami out and eating it separately because I enjoyed the egg, cheese, and muffin combination that much. If you're someone who loves an English muffin breakfast sandwich, this is worth trying for the bread alone. The cream cheese brownie was also excellent. I would absolutely order that again. The only real letdown was the breakfast potatoes. They were just okay and could have been much crispier. They were already a little soggy even though I picked my food up as soon as it was ready and ate it immediately, so it wasn't a case of the food sitting around. Service was friendly, but I was surprised by how long the food took considering the restaurant wasn't particularly busy and there were plenty of open seats. Overall, I can definitely see why Wright's has been a Tampa staple for so long.
