We just discovered this place a couple of months ago. The food is delicious, but the service is slow, because there are only two waitresses -- the mother and the daughter -- and they are overwhelmed.
They also have a little market in an adjacent room, where they sell food products imported from Easter Europe, including Ukraine, Poland, Estonia, Lithuania, and yes, even Russia. Two comments about Russian products:
1 - They have already paid for the inventory, so boycotting Russian products that have already been paid for does not hurt Putin; it hurts the store owner.
2 - They have Russian customers, too. Think about it, though: Why are those Russian people in Mesa? Because they managed to get the hell out of Russia. They are essentially Russian dissidents. They hate Putin, just like the Russians who are getting arrested right now for protesting against the war. They are our friends, and if they want imported Russian beer and canned borscht, then they are welcome to enjoy it while the inventory lasts, because there won't be any new stuff coming in.
I urge all of you to go there, and support this family-owned and operated Ukrainian restaurant. They have relatives back home in Ukraine, and they are worried as hell about them. They are trying to cook food and wait on tables and wash dishes while they are thinking about their brothers and sisters and nieces and nephews and cousins being blown up. Please go there, and tip generously. We are going there tonight, and we will tip $100.
