    Good spot on the boardwalk. Solid service and delicious food. Generous portions and tastes homemade.

    Desserts were beautifully presented and tasted amazing. The outdoor area felt really nice, though I wish smoking wasn't allowed there, including staff vaping. I would come back for the food. However, a waitress who is serving tables and walking around vaping shows poor service standards and leaves a negative impression.

    Stumbled upon Tatiana while I was with friends trying different Russian food in 3 different restaurants. I know, sounds crazy! But we had such a great time. We had a drink here and tried the chicken kiev. It was delish!! A little pricey since this was right on the boardwalk. But it was worth the stop. Service was fantastic.

    I dined at Tatiana Restaurant on weeknight recently to enjoy a good meal and the board walk and fulfilled both. We ordered some salad, some potatoes with mushrooms, some salmon, the chicken kebab, and black currant ice cream. All were very good and filling. It should be noted that the place can be a bit pricey compared to other places to the point where you might think the prices are inflated due to the location by the beach, but the portions are huge. You are getting your money's worth. The service was very friendly. I would definitely recommend checking out this place if you're in the Coney Island area as it is great way to cap off a cool summer night.

    My friend and I came to Tatiana after a nice day at the beach on Brighton. The restaurant is buzzing and always busy and has a great ambience, I love that we sat on the boardwalk. Service was pretty good and attentive. I went with the grilled Bronzino and my friend ordered the chicken Caesar salad. The salad was delicious with plenty of Parmesan cheese however, they missed an order and did not add chicken. My Bronzino took a while to come out and I do think it was delicious, but it was a little bit lacking in seasoning, overall I think the food here is a little bit on the bland side could really add a little bit more salt. The potatoes were absolutely delicious. I wish they were a little better. This is a great restaurant with good quality food with Some slight improvement. Definitely only come here during the peak season when things are fresh and the kitchen is busy.

    COME FOR THE SHOW!!!!! WOW, I've wanted to check this place out for years. Finally got a group together and already planning to go back with a bigger crew because we want to do the banquet! Were there some weird moments of poor service? Totally! Did that get in the way of the delightful fever dream or the fact the dancers were really good? Not at all! I felt like I was living inside of Eurovision for one beautiful night. We got there around 8 and it was well after 11 when we wandered out. The appetizers were really, really good. They force you into ordering way too much food, but do not skip the deserts. We tried three and all were excellent. Drinks were a little hard to come by and really that was the biggest bummer of the night. But truly loved the experience and can't wait to go back!

    The food was very good, but we must have gone on an off night. We were the only table there, there was construction going on, and there was no show. We had a large table and we felt very crowded. The plates didn't even fit on the table. I'd like to try again on a better night, but now I'm not sure.

    If you're looking for the ultimate Russian experience in New York Tatiana's is the place!! I had a paradisiacal experience here last June just sitting in their boardwalk dining section, downing beluga in long stem glasses, and watching the everyday rhythm of Brighton Beach. Their food is to die for. Love the buzhenina and pelmeni with mushroom sauce. They're twice as good when accompanied by sporadically spaced vodka shots.

    Charging a $300 non-refundable deposit for dinner is very funny, but no amount of irony or kitsch could make this scam worth it.

Cyrillic writing, clothes, food with wonderful smells, trays and trays of caviar, just bursting out the door. And, a Starbucks. Today, not too many Eastern European businesses are left. Now, it's banks, cellular, provider, stores urgent care, a 7-11, even a Popeyes freaking fried chicken. Oh, and the Starbucks is still there. After walking out of a very bad experience at imereti Georgian cafe down the street (see separate review) I found this place. Boy, am I glad I did. I was seated in the front. The restaurant was gorgeous. ! I could hear a beautiful voice singing, Eastern European songs in the back of the restaurant and at one point,, he switched to Elvis's "I can't help falling in love with you" in English. That made me a little emotional, because that was my late partner's and my song... Anyway, I decided to go for the crêpes with red caviar (salmon roe), and the Ukrainian borscht. Bread and butter is brought to my table. The white bread was OK, but the brown bread had a deep rich flavor. The crêpes come first, and they were amazing. The crêpes were very warm, soft and delicious. I loved the "red caviar". A little bit salty, more briny than fishy, and a wonderful explosion of flavor when the eggs "pop." in the mouth. I was very happy. Next came the borscht. It had cabbage, beets, potatoes, and either beef or pork. I'm not sure which one. The meat , beets and potatoes was very tender, and the soup was delicious and not too rich. A very satisfying flavor., the beets gave it a little bit of an earthy flavor. The sour cream that came with it, just added a creamy richness to it without overtaking the flavor of the borscht. 1000% a home run. Dinner wasn't cheap. Two dishes, two iced teas (I found out they charge for refills), and tax, and it came out to about $48 before tip, .I didn't care. I don't mind paying extra if the food is that good, and this food was absolutely beyond awesome. I would be glad to come back and try other items on the menu. Thank you!

The classic borsch is very dill heavy, but that was my favorite! The blintzes were also delicious and came with a tangy yogurt/cream sauce. For entrees, we shared the chicken stroganoff with buckwheat and Cornish hen with mashed potatoes. The hen was incredibly tender with a dill gravy, and the buckwheat was perfect with the stroganoff. Overall really delicious dishes and a beautiful indoor environment! Also the service was incredible and the owner was very kind in explaining to us the dishes.

It's Friday, July 3...and it's a heatwave; lots of people are out of town and streets of NYC are not super busy. I got the lunch special with two fried BEC pierogi, two fried short rib pierogi, and a cup of cold borscht. For $4, I added the bacon/kielbasa/onion topping, which came in a little cup; it's worth it. Both pierogi options were great, but I actually thought the BEC was the star of the show. The egg was not runny and the bacon was chopped very fine; the filling was seasoned well with salt and pepper. My husband really enjoyed the short rib pierogi. Next time, I'll try the potato one.

Veselka certainly is still lively, but the past few visits, I have been disappointed with both the food and the service. The prices have increased significantly (I understand this; inflation is everywhere). But the food feels "chintzy": anemic portions, child-size sides, no bread (which used to be standard). The service is mediocre. I think it always has been, but with the higher prices, I feel a bit more attention is in order. On our last two visits, it took quite a while for a waiter to greet us, a long wait for drinks, meals coming out at different times, etc. If you want to go to Veselka, because it's iconic, and a part of the history of the East Village, go for it. But you won't leave full, and you may feel cheated.

Price-wise, it's very fair! And you can taste to quality and heart they put into these Pierogis. Can't go wrong with any flavor. I got the lamb and it was stuffed with tender lamb pieces, no filler. And they make for great quick meals! I also snagged a box of cabbage rolls stuffed with a pork and rice filling. Simple home-y flavor and better than rolls I've gotten from restaurants. Just reheat and it's ready to go! $15 for 5 large cabbage rolls was a great deal as well! Would get again. The only thing I wouldn't get again is their soup dumplings, as it was a bit difficult to cook and was a little too doughy near the top of the dumpling. Flavor wise, it was delicious and had a nice broth (assuming you didn't pop them. Only 1 didn't pop). But it was a difficult item to cook right in boiling water, like the instructions mention. Perhaps, user error. Every item is sold by weight and labeled after selecting your items. But they're happy to check the weight/explain price before purchasing.

It was tasty! The bacon definitely adds a salty bite to mellow out the richness of the pierogi. I was worried the sheep cheese would be too pungent, but it wasn't.
