The Menus & Photos Located: Darina Cafe Menu Page
Food: Delicious
Presentation: Excellent
Service: Up to par
Overall Sum-Up: A comfortable dining room makes this place perfect for (Around 50 people) private party.
The Review: Darina Cafe is on the Russian cuisine side and the appetizers were set-up when all the guests arrived. You are able to chose your own menu before hand to see what will be laid out on the table. The food was overloaded, tremendous number of cold appetizers which includes salads, seafood salads, shrimp cocktails, eggplants and other small sides which already filled everybody up (No we didn’t start yet).�
Soon after there was dancing/music and speeches/toasts going around to get everybody in the mood for the party.�
More food was already coming out and this time it was Warm Appetizers: Mussels, Shrimp, Fish (Boneless, the only way I like it). During the party there was enough breaks for more dancing and really felt relaxed and non-rushed at all, kind of felt like an at home party, the whole crows was not wild but just right and you can always thank the restaurant for creating that type of feeling for all the guests.�
Continuation on the food: The entrees were beginning to come out, (Shish-Kebabs, Chicken Kebabs, Lamb Chops & Some warm pastries (Russian cuisine consists of many Mediterranean items).
We were all overstuffed by then but for some reason everyone seemed to find room for dessert, actually there was two desserts.
(1) Cakes, all different kind such as chocolatey moose swirls, banana style pastries…
(2) The Ice Cream: Warm Blueberry and Apple Pastries with ice cream piled on in the middle. (Just the perfect ending).
This was my Sisters Birthday Party, So I had to include a picture.
There was plenty of food to take home. The whole setting was nice and every person received a small Gift Bag (Chocolate with Mini Cognac bottle). We had a live band (Must be hired separately) but the restaurant owner will help you arrange this. The balloons that you see in the pictures were all custom and also arranged without the restaurant. (If interested in finding out where we got those balloons, or for any other inquiries, contact me, Alex: Alex@Whereyoueat.com)
