Signature Dishes

  • Russian Borscht

    The tomato-and-beef-bone broth is mildly sour, salty, and sweet; the beef brisket has some chew, while the set portion is not especially large.

  • Garlic Bread

    It has a Taiwanese-style margarine flavor, is baked very crisp, and works well eaten alone or dipped in the borscht.

  • Club Sandwich

    A generous portion with crisp toasted bread.
