Zima Russian Restaurant

Really good Russian restaurant in SoHo with modern Russian art inside. Food is relatively authentic. The service was friendly but overwhelmed… there was just one girl serving the whole floor. She was new and everything took just way too long. The share plates are good size to try a lot of things. Olivier is not really traditional taste though - can’t recommend. Overall still great experience and would come again. Golubtsi were the best

Three story affair in the heart of Soho serving fine Russian cuisine. Outstandingly low key service and the food was excellent. Seemed to start filling up quickly. One thing I didn’t care for was the volume of the music. A bit too loud. We ordered 3 starters and fish soup. Also had some dumplings and a vegetarian entree: Draniki. The mushroom gravy was very good. Only fault was the portion sizes were rather small. While the pitcher of strawberry lemonade was grand enough, it did seem a bit pricey as well. So I’m deducting a star. It’s a quandary, bigger portions (for more money) or as is. I’d say it’s more a place to bring a date for an evening out. I’d return, although for lunch.

I've been to Zima a few days ago, the ambiance was delightful, and the service was top-notch, our waitress was very attentive to us. The food was equally impressive, capturing the essence of Russian cuisine. Pelmeni with Lamb is to die for. Highly recommend for a memorable dining experience, definitely will be back soon!

It was our first time dining at Zima and we were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food and service. Olivie and lamb dumplings were very nice, and the desserts were so delicious that we had to order some for a takeaway! The atmosphere is cosy, nice interior and music. Our waitress Laura was very welcoming and helpful. Will definitely come again!
