Restaurant Russian Samovar

Russian Samovar is a little Russian island one block away from Broadway, where culture and tradition stay untouched. Joseph Brodsky opened the restaurant in partnership with a great entrepreneur Roman Kaplan and famous Russian ballet dancer Michael Baryshnikov. The restaurant then already had an interesting history: Frank Sinatra owned the place in the past. He had many personal concerts there and often spent time with his friends at this restaurant.

Keeping its charming tradition to be a favorite place for bohemian Russians, Samovar became a home for famous Russian poets and writers. For the last 15 years Russian Samovar has been a place for poetry reading.The restaurant became a traditional place for special occasions for three generations of Russian immigrants. In a cozy atmosphere they can eat their favorite Russian food, meet musicians, actors, writers and different guests, coming from Russia.
