History
For 90 years The Russian Tea Room has been a New York dining institution. It is a place to see and be seen, a place where countless business deals have been done and where you celebrate your special occasions. The RTR has long been a second home to New Yorkers and visitors from around the world. The world-famous red booths, as seen in such movies as Tootsie and Manhattan, epitomize a true New York experience. With a modern and dynamic menu, the RTR pays homage to classic dishes, but also inspires a culinary adventure for all diners. Whether you come in for some caviar and vodka, pre/post theater, or even High Tea, the RTR experience is something that should be shared regularly with friends, family and co-workers.
Specialties
The Russian Tea Room specializes in modern continental cuisine with a Russian Flare. Guests can enjoy classic RTR dishes like the Chicken Kiev, Beef Stroganoff or the Borscht as well as such options as the Kobe Tasting, RTR Sliders or the Vegetable Tarelka. In addition, no trip to the RTR is complete with trying some Vodka and Caviar. Enjoy a flight of vodka, tasting of 3 vodkas, for $22.
