I recognize most of the regular customers from my frequent visits. This place handles larger groups efficiently. Their customer care was exceptional! Their commitment to good ingredients shows. Top grade. read more

I had my birthday party here yesterday and I chose this restaurant because it's always been delicious when I've been there before, but this was my first time back after Covid. The party was 14 people and 1 child. It was at 2:30pm and we were the only party in the restaurant which was nice. As soon as we walked in and it was just myself, my husband, my child and my parents, we were bombarded by the photographer to take pictures and I actually hate the Russian restaurant photographers and how pushy they are and I told him we're not interested after a few of the snaps. Now on to the food. I got the "French" banquet which should have unlimited soda but there were no drinks on the table. Also, no bread which is very odd for a Russian restaurant. After several requests, we finally got bread and...cranberry juice. Then had to ask for butter for the bread. The food itself was okay but nothing like I remember it being. The escargot had a horrible taste to it and I ended up spitting it out and I love escargot. The "cold fish platter" was just lox with a lot of the black/fishy part on it. There were so many things missing which I only realized after the fact. Aubergine Appetizer was missing, assorted mushrooms were missing. Assorted fruit platter was just watermelon and pineapple and the "cakes" was just slices of an almond cake. Almonds are allergins, nuts are allergins, how do you only serve a nut cake and not at least an assortment? My husband is allergic to nuts and when I asked if they have something without nuts the waiter first said no and then went back and brought him out a chocolate cake. Overall, at $100 per person, not really worth the price. read more

Horrible experience. Never coming back again. The owner is the worst. We only came there, for a holiday party, because for that night the chef was from another place. Other than food prepared by chef Alex, everything else was horrible. Instead of a band playing music, like a restaurant should be, the owner was playing songs from youtube, and was refusing to play songs for us without us paying him money. Had to beg them all night to put the air conditioner on, so there would be some type of air circulation. Don't go here, no matter what... read more

I had the misfortune of working with the owner, Leonid, on booking a birthday party. Came to him as a repeat customer from another party I booked with him. 5 days prior to my party he calls me and tells me he has another larger party booked and I need to move my time or date. I tried to be reasonable, but he would not budge to accommodate what we initially agreed upon. I have been sharing my experience with friends and family and better business bureau. If you have any other options for an important event, go with that. Always a possibility with this guy to mess up your event if he sees a chance to make a few extra dollars. read more

My family had my uncle's birthday party here so we had the place to ourselves. So good! I am not sure these items are on their regular menu, but the 'Russian Style' sushi is to die for. Its raw tuna, some sort of a sauce and veggies wrapped in a Blintz and cut up like a sushi roll. It's been months and I still crave it. Frog legs, clams, lamb, trout, seafood.... OMG. I want more. I need a reason to come back! read more

Do yourself a favor and eat elsewhere (or don't eat at all, fresh air has a better taste than the half-spoiled food this place attempted to serve us). Here;s the kicker: they try to pull a blatantly illegal maneuver if you ask to pay credit for a big party: tacking on tax PLUS 5%. read more

This is one of my favorite places for authentic Russian food with a European flare. I love their salads, the chicken or duck liver pate are so delicious, I order them every time I have a chance. One of my favorites - Chicken Shish Kebab - perfectly marinated, juicy and yummy. They also offer a great selection of fish dishes and their portions are very generous. Can't wait to go back! read more

This was a great venue for my grandparents' 50th anniversary party. The food just kept on coming. There was every different type of fish you could think of. Lamb too. If you've got a Russian party you'd like to host, you can't do better than this place. The music wasn't too loud like it usually is at these things. And we took a lot of food come that will hold us over for a very long time. Highly recommend Caspiy! read more

Caspiy Restaurant - On Halloween party in Cospiy - Russian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Caspiy, in Sheepshead Bay, is a restaurant that's realized it doesn't need a humongous menu. You should still find something you'd like among the forty or so dishes that run the gamut of Russian cuisine and beyond. Salads and cold appetizers feature various fish, pickled vegetables, and a special Pineapple "Monte-Krista". The hot appetizers and soups show some Caucasian influence with the lamb kutabs and kharcho. There's also a fish section where Seafood Pasta "Palermo" (the chef's specialty) appears next to Chilean sea bass (the most expensive item on the menu at $32.99). The house-cured salmon had a rich taste without being too salted. I would have liked to have some blini or bread with it -- I guess I could have asked! The assorted mushrooms were marinated, and the overly salty and acidic brine made the clamshell and oyster mushrooms all taste the same. The barskaya ("lordly") appetizer was nice enough though not particularly opulent. What kind of lord eats sliced tomatoes with Polly-O grated mozzarella mixed with a tiny amount of smoked salmon, garlic, and scallion? The lamb kutab was featured on the menu as one of the chef's specials. The thin layer of ground lamb cooked inside a flatbread tasted good. I wouldn't necessarily call it special, but maybe the restaurant's Ukrainian chef found it exotic. The blinchiki Caspiy, another chef special, consisted of ground meat and a sauce with mushrooms, white wine, and cream (and blini, obviously). The meat was a bit bland and reduced to a paste reminiscent of dog food. The sauce would have been better if the wine had been cooked off some more. The kharcho was a somewhat simplified (Ukrainized?) version of the Georgian recipe, only containing, as far as I could tell, rice, beef, onions, and peppers. It tasted pretty good, but we had to watch out for small pieces of bone. The menu offers kebabs of lamb, chicken, or pork. I chose the latter, a typical Russian shashlyk. The wine from the marinade could be tasted in the meat, a characteristic which I'm not very fond of, and while the meat was cooked properly, with just a hint of pink, the chunks were too lean, and therefore a little tough. The onion on top of the meat was thinly sliced and actually marinated with vinegar and hot pepper. Way to go! The home-made fries tasted of potatoes, but were rather soggy. I guess one has to rationalize that what Russian restaurants call French fries are usually just fried potato batonnets -- this way one doesn't get too disappointed. There was also a chalakhach, the famous rack of lamb with the name of dubious etymology. Indeed, I'm still looking for a restaurant outside the U.S. where the menu features lamb chops under that name! Anyway, I ordered my meat medium rare, and the cook delivered... except he seemed to have forgotten to clean his grill, and one of the chops tasted a little bit funky! Same onion mixture and soggy fries (even less crispy) as the kebabs. Now here's a dish that's both a chef special and endowed with a questionable name: the chicken Béchamel. Any self-respecting culinary school graduate would tell you that béchamel sauce is a roux cooked in milk, and would agree that this is a strange name for a dish consisting of stewed chicken meat with a mushroom sauce and served in a bread loaf. However, this was a very satisfying dish overall. The chicken, both dark and white meat, was properly stewed until fork-tender. The sauce, similar to the one on the blinchiki above, paired well with the poultry but was a little bit scarce. The fresh bread loaf was toasted and airy, perfect to mop the sauce. On to another group of chef specials: the cutlets. We skipped the chicken Kiev and its butter projectile in favor of the cutlets Caspiy. The meat (veal, I think) was once again flavored with white wine that should have been cooked off first, but the texture was airy. it was also more than slightly burnt. And I'd bet my shirt that the mashed potatoes were made with potato flakes. The stuffed veal was another kind of cutlet. Veal blended with bread, then coated with somewhat sup-par breadcrumbs and deep fried, formed the outer layer. Cutting the cutlets revealed a sauce with mushrooms and crab in the middle, a potentially good idea if only the crab had been more flavorful. The side of boiled kasha was bland. There are a few desserts on the menu, none of them Russian. We tried the Vesuvius, a kind of cheesecake base with various chocolate things on top, all frozen. This was good enough to satisfy a sugar craving, but nothing more. The textures were funky, everything was very sweet, and the dessert was only saved by the fact that chocolate (almost) always tastes good. One can eat rather well at Caspiy, but I humbly recommend that one reads my review to help pick the right dishes. Some simple improvements, such as cleaning the grill more often, more fully cooking off the various wine preparations, and changing the dessert menu, could make the experience better. read more

We really enjoyed every dish that was given to us - truly Russian authentic food with terrific flavors. Service was also outstanding. We'll definitely go back. read more

Been to Caspiy for a couple of family events. It is a great venue for any celebrations with family or friends. The food ALWAYS tastes so delicious, especially try the salads and seafood - Love the shrimp and clams that come with pasta! Also the russian pancake is so yummy! And of course how can I forget the chicken pot pie comes in a bread! I couldn't stop eating it lol The service is outstanding - plates and drinks keep coming before you even ask! The music was also so much fun, the lady who was singing is a great entertainer, she will sing your favorite songs and make you dance until you burn all you ate :) I can't wait to go back ! read more

There were eight of us......celebrating a birthday......throughout the evening multiple appetizers and countless main dishes kept flowing to our table.... Each dish was nicely presented and we completely devoured each dish.... The dishes were all excellent....we discovered that owners are both chefs and the entertainers......it seems that they were all anxious to please us......they went all out in anticipating and fulfilling every request made of them.....where in New York are you going to find this much attention to detail...... The nicest part of the dining experience was the realization that all the foods that were left in the main serving dishes were packed up to take out.....four days later we are still enjoying the savory dishes that we keep in our refrigerator.... All in all I and We.....highly recommend this restaurant....we intend to return soon. read more

Caspiy was recommended to us by our friends a few years ago. So we decided to celebrate our wedding anniversary on December 12. The food was fresh and tasty. The employees are very friendly and service excellent. Reasonable price for banquet ($60 per person) We will definitely come back here again. read more

Hidden gem on Sheepshead Bay in Brooklyn. Has an old school Russian restaurant feel with live music and entertainment. We Did a family birthday banquet here for my mom. The service was excellent and none of the waiters were rude. Very good Russian restaurant music as well! The food was the star of the show. They have amazing chelohach and my favorite was the seafood pasta with clams and shrimp. The appetizers were great too. My favorite was the liver and jam dish. Would definitely recommend for any parties/banquets. The prices were very reasonable. read more

This is a great little place to close for your celebration or just go for dinner with a good group. Being not a fan of most "Russian" restaurants, this one is an exception. The owner is very responsive and listens to your requests. The food was delicious... and wasn't the standard "Russian" food, but more unique and tasteful. I was pleasantly surprised with such high food quality and innovative ideas. We had a small party there on Sunday and even some of our picky guests said that the food was excellent. My favorites were Salmon Tartare, Goose Liver Parfait, Duck, and Seafood platter. But all other things were delicious as well. Aside from food, the good thing is that the owners do work with you to accommodate any special requests from music selection to menu adjustments to closing off the place for small number of guests. The only unfortunately thing is that after living a block away from it for so many years, we haven't discovered this little place earlier. But we will certainly go back again for all our celebration needs. Forgot to mention that they follow up and ensure that guests were happy. read more

Do not listen to the negative reviews! Please go check it out for yourself! A small, cozy mom and pop restaurant with very fair prices and yummy food. Besides just dropping in for dinner, I just had my wedding there. Besides the owners being super accommodating with anything from changing the lights for brighter ones to changing an ingredient in a salad, everything was just superb. The restaurant went above and beyond and the food was delicious and plentiful. Everyone was extremely happy. read more

Today, we went there to celebrate a jubilee of one of our relatives. The banquet was really great. The food was fresh and tasty. A variety of the choices was great too. My favorite was the sea food dish that was so tender. It just would melt in your mouth. The service was very good. The waiters were very attentive and courteous. If I were to celebrate any event, I might consider going to this place. read more

Awesome food, place, service and prices! Will come back many more times.

I would not recommend this place to any one. The food is very greasy and tasteless and the management is very rude and unprofessional. It is for sure one of Brooklyn's worst resturants. read more
