The name says it all—Bad Habit of Post-Soviet service.
***This place gets the Einstein Award for defying human reason***
Ok, so here goes:
Walked in, waited for someone to seat us.
Stood at the door for about 7 minutes watching as 2 waiters stood by the bar ignoring us
Had to walk over to them and physically tap one on the should to “activate” him
Sat us at a table where the lamp didn’t work (it was genuinely really dark!)
Asked to move to one of the 5 neighbouring tables where the lamps did work
Response: “Net, nelzya”
As I understood, they had reservation.
As time went by, I understood that there were, in fact, NO RESERVATIONS!!! As people were simply walking in and taking these tables!!!
Quickly ran to grab one of these tables.
Nothing was said by any of the staff about this matter.
Received the most sour unfriendly service since eating at the Moscow Uni stolovaya
Left no tip out of pure spite.
Two things saved this restaurant. Though the service was bad, it was more or less fast
The lamb rack, though small, was rather delicious.
The crowd here is somewhat try-hard pafosny. Most of the people are either “patsany” with awesome RUSSIAN MULLETS, or chicks who looked like they would rather be at Planeta Sushi having a california roll (which I believe was not on the menu here - SHOCKING!).
I took great pleasure in seeing the look of disgust on their faces when I lit up a massive Perdomo Habano Maduro (cigar) and blew the smoke in their direction. Even greater pleasure when they promptly left!
Would’ve given it 3.5 stars except I haven’t worked out how to divide the stars in half… And definitely not going to give the benefit of the doubt…
