List of Russian restaurants

This is a list of notable Russian restaurants.

Russian cuisine derives its varied character from the vast and multi-cultural expanse of Russia.

Its foundations were laid by the peasant food of the rural population in an often harsh climate, with a combination of plentiful fish, poultry, game, mushrooms, berries, and honey.

Crops of rye, wheat, barley and millet provided the ingredients for a plethora of breads, pancakes, cereals, beer and vodka.

Soups and stews full of flavor are centered on seasonal or storable produce, fish and meats.
