As a Russian, I feel like in recent years this place has become too Americanized. Yes, yes, I know, go back to Brighton Beach, commie! Regardless, it's still an excellent place and one of few Russian...

This is one of those places that gets 5 stars on the fact that it is just real freaky weird! Plus the vodka is good, but that is an afterthought. Well, I can't even have afterthoughts anyway after...

The Russian Vodka Room is a great place to go for infused-vodka in NY. (A tip dont confuse it for the Russian Samovar across the street. The owner gets a little touchy when you both figure out that youre at...

The name may be "Russian" but the crowd is mostly American. A great place to have a drink and listen to some great live piano. All kinds of people drinking all kinds of vodkas and have a great time.

Even though this place is usually overcrowded, if you are lucky enough to get a table you will have great time. Try their infusions, but be afraid of overdoing it. The drinks are very smooth and you usually...

If the old Soviet-style menus don't give you a taste of Russian, something else in this restaurant will. There are plenty of excellent, authentic Russian dishes, as well as a few cliches. The service is also...

I love this place! No pretention, just people having fun. A real bar atmosphere. Always tons of characters and random Russians. It definitely is a place to go with lots of friends, not too romantic. If someone...

Cool place, just a touch of seediness adds to the eastern-block atmosphere. But beware of the martinis! They taste like there isn't that much alcohol in them, but after a couple, you'll walk out of there...

I am not Russian but many of my friends are. Whenever we go there we get seated very quickly and order about 10 carafes of the deliciously infused vodkas. Great place for a group! Warning: do not attempt to...

A great place to stop after work to enjoy a variety of International and home made vodkas. Great home made flavors suchs as Ginger, Cranberry and Raspberry (although I would recommend avoiding the Garlic!)

Great location for a quiet drink in a very dark little bar. We did not try the homemade flavored vodka, but we did have great martinis. The bartender was Polish and very friendly. If you're
