Officina

«Officina» on Zabelina Street, 1 operates as an Italian trattoria — no unnecessary pomp, but a clear understanding of what good pasta should be. Behind the restaurant are chef Mirko Zago, cheesemaker Kirill Sharshukov, and hospitality specialist Pierangelo Carbonara. The menu offers pasta for any occasion: from simple pennette with tomatoes (a vegetarian option is also available) to tagliolini with shrimp and pistachios for a more refined dinner. Among the appetizers, the vitello tonnato and fried squid are worth trying. And the tiramisu here is made in a way that makes it well worth saving for dessert. The restaurant is located just steps from Lubyanka, Kuznetsky Most, and Kitay-gorod metro stations — convenient to drop by after a walk through the center. The average bill is 3,000–6,000 rubles, and the cuisine is European with an Italian accent.
