A very fun restaurant just a block from the Kremlin. It can get a bit crowded and noisy in the front room (especially on the weekends). There's also live music played here from time to time. But if you want some place a little more cozy and intimate, ask for a table in the back room. It can provide a good atmosphere for quiet dining and conversation. Being a native Texan, I was prepared to be a bit critical of the cuisine but the food here is surprisingly good . . . with one exception--
If anyone has an hour or two to spare in Moscow could you go by here and show these folks how to make nachos! Simply placing a few tortilla chips into a bowl of chili is NOT nachos (although it WAS still tasty)! The chili con carne was very good. My fiancee really liked the enchiladas . The menu is fairly extensive with plenty of items to please any taste, including a number of purely vegetarian dishes. You can get margaritas in a wide assortment of flavors -- Marina enjoyed the kiwi margarita and my traditional margarita certainly hit the spot (although I tend to prefer my margaritas a bit larger! ;-o ) Some of the other dishes offered here include fajitas, fish dinners, quesadillas and salads
