I visited this restaurant because I was curious to taste something different and traditional, I was pleased to discover so many unknown dishes from Mongolian Buddhist tradition! Meat, mainly horse or sheep, but also a big variety of suggestions. The restaurant is decorated in style, the waiters are really kind. The tea had an interesting taste so the Mongolian beer.
Basement, no windows, sticky smelly air of cooked food mainly boozes, no air con or it was switched off. they do not have alco license so no wine or spirits only beers and the food does not suit beer so you can bring own bottle but pay “cork fee” ₽600, which is not fair, decided we. By the way there is Aromatniy Mir alco market nearby. Boozes are good, a bit heavy taste for me but autthentic. Fish plate does jot worth - Baikal omul has the taste of the generic white smoker fish from the supermarket. Meat plate is better with specialities like kazy (horse sausage). Tandoori plate for 1790₽ does not worth, very average taste nothing special. Service is good and girls are very nice and friendly with beautiful names. Ours was “Rays of rising Sun”!
I tried Selenge restaurant with a friend of mine about a week ago.Everything was pretty ok. Just a little flaw: nobody speaks English (and we don't speak Russian, though).Anyway, this wasn't a big problem because a pretty and kind waitress helped us find food and beverages we like.We had a great green tea with butter and salt, meat soups, offal and great dumplings (and Mongolian vodka).Meanwhile, three girls wearing traditional Mongolian dresses started singing Mongolian songs.At the end, the pretty waitress showed us restaurant's forniture, including a replica of a yurta.Deeply suggested!
