Wow! As we walked into Mari Vanna we felt as if we walked into a real live Russian dollhouse ! It was like entering a beautiful fairy-tale with the waitresses dressed in flowery authentic Russian dresses, Russian dolls and sculptures on the many shelves , birdhouses and bookshelves filled with Russian literature.
We were seated and offered a variety of Mari Vanna's  famous House infused Vodka. We tried the Cucumber and Dill and the Seaberry , both very interesting and fun. For our cocktails we had the Kalinka Malinka Martini – house infused Raspberry vodka, white peach puree , fresh lime juice, fresh Raspberries – was magnifique!!
Our enchanting waitress Nellie brought our appetizers : The Ukranian Borscht – it was majestic, truly splendid, it made our stomachs warm and happy ,an absolute must! The Svekolnik- chilled beet soup with cucumber, potato, and radish topped with scallion and dill ,Russian Country Salad-  tomato ,cucumber  ,bell pepper ,radish ,red onions, served with black bread ,Handmade Potato Vareniki – Russian Dumplings Sautéed Onions and Sour Cream , the second they entered our mouths we couldn't stop licking our wet ,red plumpy lips , and the Assorted Pirozjki -­  one with Cabbage and one with Rice, Egg and Scallion .For our main course we had the Fish Kotletki- Lightly Breaded Fish Patties served with Green Peas and Home style Potatoes and the Golubtzi Stuffed Cabbage-Veal, rice, in a Vegetable broth served with Sour Cream which was insanely delicious.

For desserts we had the 
Handmade Chocolate Truffles which gave us 4 chocolategasms in a row !!! Yes they were that GOOD!! And the Medovik - Traditional Russian layered Honey Cake which gave us serious pleasure jolts!! Mmmmm

Marivanna- For all of you who want to fulfill your Russian food 
fantasies (and maybe other fantasies due to the sexy clientele ;)) this is definitely the restaurant to come and play.
