The Michelin restaurant downstairs from the National Hotel took two days to book. To be honest, the taste was average, and the service was even more average. The day before, I asked the hotel to help me book, but they said there were no seats left. The next day, I went to book the evening table by myself in the morning and got it. When we were eating in the evening, the front desk saw that we were Chinese and said impatiently that there were no seats left. I said in English very impolitely, "We have a reservation." She looked up the record and took us directly to the first seat, which was the worst seat next to the toilet. Michelin should be very clean, right? I actually saw flies here. To be honest, it's not right downstairs from our hotel. I really don't recommend it. It's better to eat Georgian food. I definitely won't step into the trap.

The Michelin downstairs of the National Hotel was booked for two days. To be honest, the taste was average and the service was average. The day before, I asked the hotel to help me book and said that there was no place. The next day, I went to book the night early in the morning. I booked it. When I ate at night, I entered the front desk to see that we were Chinese. I was very impatient and said that there was no place. I said very politely in English, we have a reservation, she turned the record, Directly led us to the first location, next to the worst location of the toilet. It is reasonable to say that Michelin should be very clean, right? I actually saw flies here. To be honest, it was not downstairs in our hotel. I really don't recommend it. Better to eat Georgian food, never step on the pit.
The main Russian cuisine, the restaurant is decorated in a humorous style. The restaurant in Manesh Square has been a famous store for a few years. Classic Soviet dishes can be found on the menu: dumplings, Russian pickles, soup, meatloaf, nostalgic desserts. In addition to the specialties, the restaurant is luxuriously decorated and you can enjoy the beautiful view of the Kremlin outside the window during the meal.
The pre-dinner bread on the fore dish is hot and crispy, and the fried silver carp is tender in the outer and inner. The friend said that it is much better than the Japanese food store. The lobster rice is also good, the cheese and lobster flavor are very strong, and the vegetable salad is more general. Did not drink, ordered a pot of count tea.
[Taste] The dishes are good, but not particularly amazing. I recommend the cheese grilled mushrooms and pumpkin soup. [Environment] The good location is the biggest highlight of the restaurant. It is located at the beginning of Tverskoi Street, across the street from the Red Square. You can see the History Museum and the Kremlin tower across the busy traffic. There are outdoor seats in summer [Service] Mainly waitresses. English is available. The price is touching. I went there in the summer of 2017 and spent 3,000 rubles for two people, about 300 yuan.
Remember to bring cash with you, because if you don't bring cash, you won't be able to enjoy the delicious food. This time I tasted delicious cakes and biscuits, paired with appetizers, cold cuts, fish, pickles and salads, it was a very hearty dinner.
The interior decoration of the restaurant has many Soviet elements, so the history of the restaurant is not short. The restaurant mainly serves traditional Russian food and creative dishes, and there are many types of vodka. The service and food taste are first-class.
