Aljonuschka in Dresden

This small but fine restaurant is one of the best I've ever been to. I am always satisfied after every visit. The staff is nice and warm, the food tastes just first class and the prices can't be beat. I warmly recommend it to everyone who appreciates good cuisine.

Extremely tasty Russian food. There are also vegetarian and vegan options. The portions are large which makes the prices very fair.

Excellent quality of the food and drinks. The service was satisfactory.

The food is absolutely freshly prepared, seldom have I smelled so much of the kitchen after visiting a restaurant. The pelmeni were really delicious, and the dessert was also impressive. Deduction for: interior designed to be expandable, menu really very small, no draft beer

Really authentic Russian dishes for a small price. The borscht (борщ) is highly recommended!

Very good Russian homemade food! Few dishes but very well prepared

Unfortunately too little choice for vegetarians and generally rather a small selection of dishes. Good location, lots of potential. What is on the menu tastes good.

Simple Russian cuisine with a small selection of dishes. Food was a bit bland seasoned. The staff was not very attentive for the big ones.

Get the plinsen spezial.

Food: authentic cuisine! The food was delicious and filling. We had ordered soljanka and vareniki (Russian dumplings with potato filling). They were authentically prepared with sour cream, roasted onions and fresh herbs. I also had delicious Russian Ivan tea. Service: was polite, speaking Russian and German and young. Location: The restaurant is centrally located, not far from the Frauenkirche. Atmosphere: Russian modern hits played in the background. There are tables outside. The interior was unspectacular, but everything was clean! We were very satisfied and would love to come back.

Delicious food. Huge portions. The staff is very nice and tolerant - when you don't know German and you don't understand English fully, they slowly try to explain everything. I recommend.

The food was delicious and it is cooked with an open kitchen. Very friendly service!

So tasty, like at home! Staff is friendly. Nice to listen some Russian radio there ?

Authentic, fast, and friendly

We have been regular customers for years. The staff is always friendly and there is almost always a vodka on the house. I only like the new concept with the daily changing main course to a limited extent, as my favorite meal, Beouf Stroganow, is only offered on Saturdays and not every day on Sundays. The biggest point of criticism is the changed selection of the beer. After the beginning of 2020 there were all varieties of Baltika to drink. There is no longer a Russian beer on the menu. The only Pils to drink is Radeberger and the rest are Bavarian beers from the Büble brand. I hope that will change again soon, as this is inappropriate for the otherwise so good Russian cuisine.

The food was great. It tasted great and looked authentic. Only the operation still seemed a bit unroutined, but that will be fine.

I loved this place so much I came by two days in a row! This restaurant is a mom and pop shop so the menu is small and focused. They have daily specials and if you're craving comfort food this is a great place for that. I really enjoyed the dumplings and you could get a mix of both the beef and pork when you order. They also have a special berry drink that they make themselves. The prices are extremely affordable as well. Would definitely come back again!

My recommendation, super delicious, perfect soups and stews. Eat real Russian? Russian friendliness. My recommendation in Dresden. At a fair price!

Very tasty food, despite the uninviting atmosphere. The Solyanka was unique, as was Vareniki. Much, much better than any other larger Russian restaurant in Dresden.

All in all, an excellent place. All the dishes ordered tasted delicious, were well served and the amount of food left nothing to be desired. The hectic service mentioned by some of the previous speakers is not perceived as negative by me. Rather, the Russian chatter between the kitchen and the waitress creates an authentic atmosphere. Almost something homely. In any case, I would have the impression that I was being served by friends in my living room. I couldn't find any negative points.

I was completely pleasantly surprised. We'll both be back in any case. We both thought the selection of drinks was great! Here you get both: friendly and brisk waiters. We think the inn is contemporary for all occasions, whether with friends or family; ).

This is a great authentic place with spectacular food and even some vegan options!

Very nice service!

Food tasted well and the waiter was very nice since me and my friend only speak Italian and a bit of English and he knew italian

Good food, good service, and good value for money.

Good food but lame service. The visit was in early July 2020, you should take that into account. Mask requirement, distance and everything has to start again. The food was delicious without question. We'll try that again.

Delicious. Everything fresh. Price performance is good! Gladly again.

Very delicious pelmeni and belyash

A small Russian restaurant with friendly staff. I had the Soljanka and the Pelmeni, both of which were tasty. Would recommend.

A pleasant atmosphere in a beautiful place, especially when it's warm enough to stay outside. Pelmeni, borsch, solyanka, tscheburek and mors, to name a few dishes, not only taste good, but also bring good memories. Definitely the russian restaurant of my choice.

Nice People. Good good.

Great place with delicious food at really reasonable prices. We visited Aljonuschka during our stay in Dresden some time ago and we have recently come back there twice with our friends, who were also delighted. It’s one of our favourites in Dresden. They offer savoury comfort food in huge portions, which is freshly prepared (it means you sometimes have to wait a bit longer, but it’s quite understandable and definitely worth it) and served by very kind staff who makes all efforts to meet your needs. Yes, that’s true they sometimes run out of certain dishes, but it’s pretty normal when comes to restaurants with daily fresh food and ingredients. Our group of four had quite an extensive order which was changed several times, yet they managed to serve everything at right rime, so that we could eat together. We definitely recommend!

Fresh Russian food

Very tasty and authentic. Was a nice experience. One can only recommend, especially since here Russian traditional food is offered at very humane prices.

Our clothes smelled terrible after we left the place. Other than that the servant was really kind.

We stopped by for a quick lunch while walking through Dresden and had Pelmeni, Soljanka and tea. The food was delicious, and the folks at the bistro were friendly and helpful.

Frendly good suff!

Very good russian food. Everything is fresh and home made. Service may be a bit slow if busy - since everything prepared on place on demand. Had a lunch there. Recommended to those who love russian food.

Amazing food!

Great small restaurant with delicious russian food.
