Lastochka

«Lastochka» is located at the "Luzhniki-Yuzhny" pier on Luzhnetskaya Embankment, but it's not just a restaurant on the water — you can arrange with the owners to take a cruise along the Moskva River right during dinner. The nearest metro station is Vorobyovy Gory, so getting here is easy even without a car. The cuisine at «Lastochka» is mixed and built on contrasts: Italian dishes sit alongside Japanese ones, and there's also room on the menu for borscht. This kind of combination is typical of restaurants with an ambitious approach to gastronomy, where the chef isn't afraid to blend different culinary traditions on one plate. The interior is understated yet clearly upscale — no showy extravagance, but a distinct sense that the place is aimed at guests with money. The average check starts at 6,000 ₽, which matches the level of the cuisine and the format of a restaurant on the water.
