Probka

“Probka” is the flagship and most titled Italian restaurant of Aram Mnatsakanov on the Petrograd side. The Italian classics on the menu are supplemented by signature dishes. They serve octopus Sicilian style, chopped steak country style, pizza with salmon and black caviar, pasta with burrata and black truffle, and for companies – lamb shoulder in herbs.

Betulla

An Italian osteria from the Birch team near Nekrasovsky Garden. Betulla is the same “birch” as Birch (from Italian and from English, respectively). The kitchen is headed by the permanent chef Arslan Berdiev. His signature is filigree work with products, harmonious combinations, no effects for the sake of effects. The menu has a dozen and a half dishes on an Italian theme: homemade pastas with non-standard toppings, variations on the theme of parmigiana, caesar, vitello tonnato. Osteria Betulla has collected a large collection of wines for all occasions, a sommelier works in the hall. Tables must be booked in advance, but for the general communal table they are placed on a first-come, first-served basis.

Jolie and Juan

Joli Grand Bistrot has opened at 45 Vosstaniya Street, in the courtyard of the Myasnikov mansion. It is a project of the Italy&Co. team and the famous Moscow chef Glen Ballis. The name Joli means “beautiful” in French, and we were not deceived. The glass roof of the atrium and the play of sunlight, white tablecloths and napkins with embroidery, lots of flowers, designer tableware – everything justifies the grand bistro genre: it is about French chic and charm, but in an “everyday” format.
