Samovar, Mountain View CA

Good selection of eastern European food. Smoked sausages, dry fish, herring, breads, canned food and sweets. Also there is good selection in deli section- salads, pirozhki, soups and etc

Great Russian home made food. Friendly staff and lots of parking, close to Hwy 101 and Costco.
I only buy in-house made food: lentil dumpling, herring salade, Georgian bean salade, beef borscht.

Amazing store! I found Russian baby books and was so happy. Definitely coming back here. They also have some Turkish treats.

They have a very good inventory of hard to find Russian & European items. Baked goods, salads, soups, as well as speciality dishes are made from scratch daily. I would highly recommend them to every one.

Thank you, Samovar! My family is enriched through finding such a great selection of delicacies through your grocery store. While we are unable to travel during quarantine, I appreciate you for bringing Russia to us.

Great eastern-European store, makes you feel like home! Great selection of products and people are always helpful.

How's good Russian food pirogi with beef and onion chopped is very good sold for 1.50. Also sell zephyr Russian jello.they also have good Russian such as inspiration and bubble chocolate. Overall this is a great Russian store with homemade Russian food

Compare to other Russian stores in the area that one has biggest assortment including Russian books, magazines etc.

Love this store! Although not big, it provides every item a russian (and not only) stomach can dream of.

I come here to buy medicines and russian buckwheat. Customer care is also nice but sometimes they look rude. But i think it is russian traditional way of dealing with people. But i know in heart they are very kind.

Great Russian store. Tasty authentic Russian food with Azerbaijan influence (unique and great tasting), good conversation with owner

Excellent selection. Plenty of time left before item expiration dates, which is a difficult task for this type of store.

The potato salad! Addicted.
Also love some of the fresh pastries and all the honey cake choices. Owner is super nice.

Absolutely delicious chicken pilaf and olivie salad made from their own kitchen. Would certainly love to try out more dishes from them. Staffs were extremely nice and helpful. The deli also have a huge range of russian products that seem to be reasonably priced. Overall highly recommend:)

I was a little intimidated visiting this little market for the first time, as someone who knows very little about Russian and Eastern European food, but I received a warm welcome and an enthusiastic tour. I even got to meet and chat with the owner. The shop is packed with meats, baked goods, spices and more. The is a kitchen in the back, where they prepare food you can reheat at home, like stuffed cabbage, beet salad and piroshki.

Good selection of groceries from Belarus, Russia, Ukraine, Moldova and other countries. Always check the expiration date.

Good selection, mostly fresh stuff, but super overpriced compared to similar stores in the area

Great choice of Russian food. Very welcome owners. Try it and you will get high attitude for the rest of your day.

Anything you'd want to find from the countries of former USSR and beyond. Their catering is fantastic as well.

They seem to have a decent variety. I've been there a few times, and the staff are always nice.
