Nevsky Russian Restaurant - Elsternwick

Lovely little restaurant at a good location. Service and food were excellent. We had the beef dumplings, pork loin both full of flavour and delicious without being too heavy. Waitresses were very attentive without being overbearing.

Highly recommend trying the herring fillets with boiled potatoes, egg salad, ham hock split pea soup, dumplings, pork loin with braised red cabbage, and cabbage beef roll at this restaurant. My partner introduced me to Nevsky and I fell in love with the food immediately. We went for an early dinner on a Saturday and the host was welcoming and funny, adding to the cozy atmosphere. Despite being extremely busy, they always managed to find us a table. We will definitely be returning for the delicious food. Thank you, Nevsky!

I tried Russian cuisine for the first time and I have to say, I was impressed! The service was friendly and went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. The food was hearty, unique, and perfect for a cold winter's night. I highly recommend the sour cherry crepes with cream, they were delicious and I couldn't resist finishing them despite already having a full meal. I will definitely be returning to this restaurant!

Yearning to try Russian cuisine, we finally made it happen after hearing good things about Nevsky.<br <br Quite few can come close to.producing flavors that are synonymous to their country of origin and it's safe to claim that @nevskyrestaurant is one of those rare gems<br <br Thanks to our 9 months stay in Russia, our taste-buds were able to relish and register flavors from the cuisine that has culminated from fusing Bit of European and Asian Cuisine into what's locally grown and bred with subtle flavors.<br <br Ordered Russian Mule, Russian Vodka and an Apple and Cinnamon based Vodka drinktogether with Strogonoff, Fricassee (obviously,have been missing Russian version of Julianne , Potato and Caramelised Varenikee (Dumplings , Sosiski and Chicken Kutlety<br <br It's hard to not love anything that's quite close what we have relished in Russia (I'm sure you are tired of reading this but Sosiski (perfectly cooked yummy sausages served with caramelised onions and Stroganoff (Veal cooked in cream and served with Buckwheat were easily the Dish of the day<br <br Simply binged on Julienne aka Fricassee and it was quite close to second best.<br <br Hospitality, very friendly and charming. Pricing, just perfect for the portions and taste.<br <br Vegetarians Vegans have just one or two options so don't expect much<br <br Cocktails were Superb!!<br <br Definitely visiting.<br

My friend recommended we try this place out, and I’m very glad she did! I’m all for trying different food when I can, so decided to go to Russia! Loved the very rustic interior, the fireplace going and the chandeliers hanging from the ceiling. It’s a quaint interior, but the food is full of Russian spirits. First vodka, favourite thing is the vodka comes before the food in the menu. They make 12 different flavours of vodka, but also have the standard and expensive vodka brands! The lady who served us was fantastic! She was energetic, happy for a chat as well as serving everyone. The food is hearty, and it’s full of flavour. The flavours are very different to your standard Aussie food, so don’t come in and complain as this is Russian food! Would highly recommend going, plus book!
