Coba

«Coba» on Novaya Ploshchad serves Japanese and Asian food with a focus on hand rolls — elongated cones filled with a wide variety of ingredients. The concept is simple and clear: people come here not for long, leisurely meals but for one specific dish that's made well. The interior follows the style of traditional sushi bars: red and black colors, wood, lacquered surfaces. The space is small, with no excess decor — all the attention goes to the food and the chefs' work. The kitchen is run by chef Oleg Shin, who previously worked at Cutfish, Buba by Sumosan, and Tokyo Sushi — he's been familiar with hand rolls and Asian cuisine for years. The drinks list is built to match the food: Japanese beer, sake, and a small but fitting wine list. The average check is 1,000 to 3,000 rubles. You can get there from Lubyanka, Okhotny Ryad, Teatralnaya, Ploshchad Revolyutsii, Kuznetsky Most, or Kitay-Gorod metro stations.
