    Potato pancakes with mushroom
    Ali K.

    Great Ukrainian cuisine in this small BYOB restaurant. The borscht was great. Stroganoff was on the point. Potato pancakes were really good though probably not the healthiest thing in the world, though that's no fault of the restaurant. Highly recommend.

    Very friendly atmosphere! Small family oriented restaurant! Always freshly made and cooked every day! Love coming here! Definitely recommended to everyone!

    I've been here a few times now and while the menu reflects to same fare as most of the Russian restaurants in the area they are actually more successful at a majority of the dishes. Know first a foremost that like all the other restaurants in this category food is served family style on the tables. The cold appetizers and salads are good with a wide variety so you are pretty assured that there is something for everyone. Same goes for the hot appetizers. You can tweak and adjust the menu to include or exclude items as you need. With that said if you want good shish kabobs this is not the best option as they are the weakest of their menu items. The waitstaff and quick, polite and attentive to the point that they will flow one course of food seamlessly into the next. On the weekends there is a live singer playing & singing mostly Ukrainian songs so you can have a lively dance floor but also make the place very loud. So if you are looking for a place to have a nice conversation over dinner this is not the time/spot. For a quieter meal I recommend coming midweek or during lunch times.

    Friends 30th birthday party at Passage Restaurant in NE Philly. If anyone is familiar with the Russian restaurant scene in Philly you know all the available options. This is the first time we were there since the new owners bought it and changed the name from 1001 Nights. It's a smaller place for to hold 60 people at the most. The one man band for the music was just ok, typical Russian and American songs. The food however was very good. Pictured we have a small potato latke with red caviar and sour cream on top. It's always a fan favorite and did not disappoint. Also pictured is an assortment of Japanese style salads such as Kani and seaweed salad. Typical taste as all the Russian restaurants and same quality you can purchase at any Russian supermarket. The bottom picture is an assortment of fish. Grilled sea bass skewers, shrimp and sea bass filets all covered in a creamy and subtly spicy sauce. I thought it was very good compared to other Russian joints. My wife disagreed but whatever. I'm drunk on vodka and everything tasted good. Basically, overall, it was a cozy atmosphere with solid food. Nothing extraordinary and nothing terrible. I would recommend it for a smaller party and would definitely return.

    Absolutely amazing! My fiance and I came here for Brunch and from the very first bite I was BLOWN AWAY. We had the Borch and it was sooo good! I then got the Beef Stragonof (HIGHLY RECOMMEND IF YOU LIKE BEEF AND MUSHROOMS) And I had a FOODGASM for a good 5 Minutes. I knew this place was good but OMG it really exceeded my expectations! Will definitely be back!!! Thank you guys for the amazing meal!

    Golden Boar is a Ukrainian restaurant in the Huntingdon Valley Marketplace shopping center. From…read morethe outside, it may look like a regular strip mall restaurant. But inside is something really special. In my experience, it isn't very easy to find Ukrainian restaurants in the U.S. (certainly several in New York), and so I was thrilled to find Golden Boar. And it lived up to all my hopes and expectations. First of all - strip mall from the front, but it's all charm and coziness inside. The decor includes lots of photographs and beautiful table coverings - but the highlight of the interior is their play on the Ukrainian Pich (stove). What looks like a beautiful, traditional Pich is an opening and passthrough to the kitchen. It adds such charm and character to the space. But onto the food. I happen to love Ukrainian food, so we were excited and hungry and knew we would order too much food and have leftovers for later. We ordered and shared: Yushka (a porcini mushroom broth served with mushroom dumplings and a huge chicken meatball) with a garlic bun on the side on the recommendation of our server; Huliash (stewed beef with potato dumplings, and prunes); herring (with egg salad, boiled beet, and onions); and potato and cheese varenyky with cracklings). I would order and eat every bite again. And I wish I'd had more room to finish our plates and order a dessert! (Looking back, we should have brought friends with us just so we could order and share more of the menu)! The staff are friendly, and the service was wonderful and fast. Just a really wonderful meal that I'd be happy to repeat in the future! I think it's really special.

    Incredible authentic Ukrainian food!!…read more The ambiance is also very fitting! Beautiful Ukrainian art on the walls reflecting the history of ukrain

We found out that most of the people (regulars) who usually come here are on their vacation season so it was not an issue getting a six-top reservation with only a day's notice. The restaurant is huge with at least two mega rooms downstairs and one upstairs. We actually went to the upstairs door to check in only to be told we had to go to the downstairs door and check in there. Once we did, the staff asked if we would be ok with being in the "party" room where there would be a DJ. We were fine with that and the staff was more than happy to accommodate us. Once at our table, the extensive menus made it almost too difficult to decide what we wanted. May want to consider reducing the food options here. My wife and I split a tomahawk steak. Once we ordered it, we were told we should probably move to an eight-top because we would have more space. The place was almost empty at 6:15pm on a Saturday so we got to move and give us some more room. We also had two serving of Plov, a prime NY strip, a roasted beet salad, and a chicken fingers with fries. We added some bread, too, along with some compote. The Plov was some of the best we've ever had with lots of tender meat. Both steaks were cooked to our liking. Fries were killer and the chicken fingers were fine. I did not care for the compote as I'm used to it with fruit still in the drink. At about 7pm, the DJ started but there was no separate party which is what we thought was going to show up. The DJ sang some and played up-tempo dance music but also threw in some known music like Ob-Bla-Dee Ob-Bla-Dah from the Beatles also in the dance music style. So much fun after drinking a lot of our BYOB alcohol. Service was excellent and more than accommodating for us. He even advised when we were getting ready to leave that it was raining hard and we could stay until it died down. The restaurant is colorful with lights and designs on the walls including projector lights and white linen sheets above. The place was clean and also the bathrooms on the lower rear level. $305 not including tip for six adults which included two steaks, two Plov, chicken fingers with fries, three breads, and a compote. I mention a lot with my reviews that I'd come back to a place. I really can't wait to return to Samarkand! It was just a lot of fun with excellent food and service. I hope it's just as good when the place is slammed and full.
