Not a fan of this store. Ive been there twice, and on both occasions some weird misfortune happened. First time I bought some Russian curd, but the package had a hole in it, which I discovered only at home. So I had to throw it to the garbage bin. Next time I came to buy an authentic Kiev cake. I couldnt find the cake I was looking for, so I had to browse other cakes they had. To my surprise, about half of them did not have any expiration date. At all. None. When I asked about that, the sales person made big rounds eyes at me: "Why do you need an expiration date?", she said, "The pastry is very fresh, I promise! The cakes are good, so they dont stale." I ended up buying one cake, though, it was OK. Bottom line, I cant trust this store.

Samovar is unlike any other store. It looks to be a Russian and Eastern European food haven that houses pre-packaged and homemade treats from that region. This includes sausages and cured meats, cheeses, desserts, pickled foods, and much more. Im sure to some this store deserves 5-stars, but I can only give three because I have no idea how to gauge the quantity or quality of the products. From an outsiders perspective, it looks a little shady at first, but the breadth and specificity of products carried is amazing. It could use a cleaner, less warehouse approach to shelving products, but it doesnt detract much from the store itself.

В сравнении с другими русскими магазинами САМОВАР имеет самые свежие продукты, низкие цены и дружелюбное обслуживание. Хлеб - самый вкусный в Bay Area. Выпечки и ресторан - выше всяких похвал! George

Ive only had that catered food from here, but its delicious! The rice dishes are all awesome, and they do some delicious dumpling with potatoes in them, too. (Not a great place for a light meal.) The guy that delivered was very friendly, too, and happy to explain the dishes to the crowd.

I bought some interesting products and enjoyed them. There were many differeny variety of items, from books to kolbasa. However, I was overcharged for a non-existing item for $8.25 and an extra item when I checked against my grocery bag at home. Tricked on Halloween! :-(

Fine shop with eastern european food, russian books, etc. They have also some kind of bistro - they server borscht soup and 3 other meals. Soup is OK, meals are greasy. Those girls working there are a bit strange...

There are no so many spots around this area where i can get healthy food from my motherland. I would like some hot bar or kitchen on a side. Red caviar just mmmmm yammy!

The best Russian store in Bay Area. Lots of seeets, marinated veggies, dairy and best of all - locally cooked food like borsch, olivie, vinegret, and some baked goods.
