"An ever-changing menu under the direction of Dmitrii Modestov shows a preference for Japanese seafood preparations and homey Russian tastes, but with a nod to global trends, as in the house-marinated anchovies and a dish of hummus with Basque pork sausage. The glass-enclosed dining room features an open kitchen, a cellar loaded with organic wines, and a cozier bar area serving cocktails by Manel Vehí, one of Spain’s star mixologists. The ensaladilla rusa, or Russian potato salad, is a must." - Marti Buckley
