I love this place --it's a really warm environment, with two sweet and friendly owners (and sometimes their charming young daughter in attendance) and delicious Polish recipes. The pierogis are delicious as is their basic chicken dish (which I usually order in the interest of health, as long as I get a side of sauerkraut (which I love here even though I generally don't like that stuff at ALL). Their many meat dishes also get rave reviews from my companions. Each meal comes with soup (always good), salad, and a dessert, and they are priced really well for all of that. The decor is crowded and really kitchy, but that just goes along with the warm, friendly feeling of the place. It's small, so reservations on weekends or weekday visits are your best bet.

First of all, this is not an easy restaurant to spot. It has a low profie at Sepulveda and La Tijera and there is ample parking in the back where you can enter through a glass door of an office buliding. My family came from Interlaken, though I have only been back once and I spent a month TDY in Germany with the Air Force. The Brats and potato pancake I had for dinner this evening were as light and flavorful as any I had in the region and the Erdinger on tap was much fresher and mild than I expected. Overall this was an excellent find. I came in at 6 PM on a Monday and watched the place fill up over the next half hour. Service was friendly, competent and prompt. Kitchen was reasonably quick and meal was perfect.

Didn't know much about Bulgarian food before eating here. Was really impressed with the cooking. It's the owner's mom! Meat was so tender. Appetizers were good. Get ordering advice from mom and son b/c some of the dishes aren't authentic. No wine but you can BYO for only $3.50!
Pros: great meats, good value, cheap corkage
Cons: hard for beginners to know what's authentic

the most european style! i love the russian ambience and the steamy, rocky, sensuous feeling there. the therapists are great, especially vladymir.he is the best! the cafe is wonderful, the staff is friendly, and the pool is an added touch. it is one of the oldest spas in los angeles so it has a really vintage aura. i love how unlike the frilly hotels it is. i much prefer it over beverly hills hotels or santa monica. i want to go all the time. it is great

probably the biggest russian restaurant in the city, the decor is tacky and gaudy, as in all russian restaurants here in l.a. there are several fixed menus to choose from. the least expensive of which is usually $55/ person. if you want more seafood and variety the price goes up to around $100/person. there are a lot of cold and hot appetizers that come with that, most of which are pretty unappetizing. some of the seafood appetizers are decent like the craw-fish salad or the tuna tartare. the entrees usually consist of chicken, pork or beef kebobs, salmon, and several chicken dishes authentically prapared. desssert is usually brought on your own and so is alcohol. the music's terrible, but when everyone gets drunk enough they usually won't mind dancing to it, that is, unless they're too busy smoking outside or trying to impress people with their jewelry. what fun!!!
Pros: lots of "food" for $$
Cons: not worth the price, bad music, people staring
