We goggled ethnic restaurants and chose this one. When we arrived we noticed it was 1/2 restaurant, 1/2 spa. We were not sure but at first but the experience was good and the good was delicious. Big servings.  We even leaned Russian.

Northwest Carrollton
This place was packed when we arrived and had amazing reviews so it seemed promising. I’m sad to say the coffee was bad, which they were nice enough to take off the bill. The hollandaise sauce was tasteless and apparently not even made fresh which we found out about after the fact. The kids did enjoy their pancakes!
