Wonderful, authentic Russian food |
600 Fifth Ave (at the corner of Balboa Avenue) San Francisco, CA 94118 +1 415 668 9292 http://www.katias.com/ |
A delightfully chic Russian restaurant done in light woods and shades of apricot. Crisp white linen is on the tables and smiles are on the faces of the staff who greet you warmly at the door. The food is wonderful, from the Varnischkes, to the Vegetarian Potato Pancakes, to the Blinis with your choice of filling, including Beluga caviar (a bit pricy but worth it.) Everything here is savory and beautifully presented. Desserts include a hefty Chocolate Walnut cake, Napoleans, and a traditional and tasty fruit pudding made with fresh fruit thickened with cornstarch. Tea is elegantly served the traditional way, in glasses with real silver holders. Dinner with appetizer and dessert runs between, lunch a little less. The wine list is small, but offers nice selections from California vinyards and a few imported from Mother Russia, too. Review © 2009, Wcities |
