The restaurant maintains a high rating due to its flavorful classics, particularly the borscht, which is often described as wonderful when paired with their warm garlic bread. Guests appreciate the staff's hospitality and their traditional folk costumes, which add to the immersive atmosphere. While the traditional menu items receive glowing praise, some visitors suggest avoiding non-traditional items like steak, which may not meet the same high standards.
