PrintRussian/Ukrainian restaurants?
Does anyone know any authentic Russian or Ukrainian restaurants in the city, Brooklyn, or Queens?
I know there's Veselka in the city, but I'm not a fan. There's also plenty of so called "Russian" restaurants in Brooklyn, but they're clearly not authentic. They're dubbed Russian due to the fact that the majority of their patrons are Russian, as well as the owners. I can't seem to find any good spots.

Having explored this topic in depth. I can tell you that there are plenty of authentic Russian restaurants. Most serve Ukranian borscht and the usual eastern european fare. Go down to Sheepshead Bay or Brighton Beach and pick one. XO is very nice, done in a traditional "hunting lodge" style, is on the bay, and has Russian crepes in a French style. Whatever restaurant you choose, so long as soup with chopped up hot dogs is on the menu, and everything comes with mushroom sauce, you know you've found the real thing.
