Traktir Restaurant Valley in Tarzana

Very lovely restaurant with many menu choices and great service. We had delicious lamb lula kebabs, sturgeon, chicken blintzes, my husband tried horse radish vodka and enjoyed it. For dessert we had napoleon, cherry vareniki and tea. Definitely coming back. Just one little note it would be nice to have some type of soft music in background. My friends come here very often and all agree music is missing. Thank you for everything. Coming back soon.

It was our first visit and we will definitely be back. Good service! The borscht is a must try, it was hands down my favorite! The different flavored vodkas are awesome. If you don’t know which to try get the flight! The golubtsy is another favorite. It reminded me of meatloaf wrapped in cabbage. If you’re looking for authentic Russian food, this is your place.

Amazing Slavic food restaurant! Beef shashlik was perfectly cooked and melted in a mouth and Ukrainian borscht was on point as well.Our server “Ivan” was the best server I’ve encountered in a long years. Definitely recommend this place to everyone and planning to comeback for sure!

There were not many diners during our stay, but it was lively. the plating was excellent, and the presentation was above par. ivan, our host, was friendly and patient. it definitely is worth repeat visits.

Amazing and lovely restaurant. We ordered take away but can’t wait to come back and sit down to dine with these amazing folks and this delicious food.I had to wait a bit for my food to take home to family but was entertained by a music man while waiting.I did come back and many times!This place never ever disappoints!I love to support the fine Ukrainian folks here as well as other nationalities that work here.The food is simply amazing and Anastasia is just the most professional, knowledgeable and attentive person.Saturday nights they have a great DJ and lots of loving people out for dining and dancing! So nice to have this in the 818 again but this place is even more special because of the chef, the staff and the ambiance.

Very cozy place. The food is yummy !

It’s expensive but the sizzling pork chop, filet medallions, and pelmeni is all 5/5The Napoleon cake is also amazing and worth coming just for the cake 5/5
