This traditional Russian restaurant, by a famous local Novikov group, is located in the centre of Petrovka Street, very close to the Bolshoi Theatre of Moscow. This place is famous for its daily tea ceremonies and traditional Russian menu. We highly recommend booking a seat at Bolshoi in advance during the weekend.

2. Catch Bistro

Catch Bistro is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, every day of the year. You can simply book a table online if you have doubts about the availability. The special atmosphere is complimented by a vast selection of fish courses and European and Asian fusion courses. Start your dinner with a tasty fish appetizer or two and proceed with shrimp pasta or sashimi with white Japanese rice.

3. Fumisawa Sushi

This unique farm-to-table restaurant is also located on Petrovka street. LavkaLavka is a brand new Russian cuisine restaurant that dances to its own tune. You won’t find anything else like it in Moscow. All the farm fresh products are delivered to the venue daily. Expect to find home-made lemonade, freshly squeezed juice and contemporary Russian courses. It is also a favourite stop for the Red Hot Chili Peppers band when it’s in town.
