Eating there wasn't that special, but it has some of the best and freshest Italian meats, spices and cheeses for take out. You will not be disappointed

Based on high rated reviews we had dinner in Receptoria. I had pasta and then duck. It is pity when all ordered dishes is absolute neutral. It was eatable but nothing else to describe. Prices are high. But taste is less then ordinary. May we were at Monday. No visitors exclude us. No booking required. I was stupid to go... More

Food was mediocre, attentive service. Complimentary desserts was interesting. Very expensive for portions. Restaurant was very clean with pressed white table clothes. Felt like I was in a cave, not much natural lighting, cloudy day. It could be romantic atmosphere for younger crowd. Bathroom was clean.

This Italian restaurant has a great location opposite the Admiralty (Alexander) garden. The food is high quality and the service attentive. I ordered a tartare of salmon and a mushroom & truffle risotto. High quality but small portions. This meal, with three glasses of wine, cost RUB 3100. Pricey, I thought.

The service was good but we had some communication problems. It didn't affect our food but we ended up with 2 desserts and all we wanted were 2 spoons to share... More

This is simply the finest upscale restaurant in St. Petersburg. EVERYTHING is good, beautifully presented by an attentive, gracious wait staff. Importantly it offers privacy amidst ambiance. Food is French and Mediterranean; the antipasto is truly remarkable. Between the Admiralty, Hermitage and St. Isacc's Cathedral. Sit outdoors for lunch; great people viewing.
