Rimsky-korsakoffee House

So happy that my husband and I found this little gem! The atmosphere was so cozy and almost surreal at night with all the Halloween lights. We went on a Sunday night at 10pm and it was a full house - that tells you something. The coffee was delicious and the desserts were stellar! Cannot recommend enough and can’t wait to come back ❤️

I went there for the first time just last night. Fortunately, the vaccination requirements are now dropped. Parking was pretty reasonable, just right around the corner. It took me a whole couple of minutes to get in signed up and they got me a seat. Glad to say it's a pretty place and of course the clientele :-). The service people were all super polite and did a great job. It's going to be a fairly dark place as they have the lights turned way down, candle lit and small lights.. It's the kind of place you can take a date and enjoy, or go by yourself, or go bring your kiddos likely teenage as it does not appear to be an alcohol place there's no age limit, it's kind of quiet place it's not super loud or anything. They're playing music in the background. It seems like a lot of the homeless are out of the area, so that in itself is nice for security. 12th Street is a little busy as a one-way, you take care of when Crossing. A fella came out and was playing some very nice classical music on the piano. It was toned at fairly well for the location it was not overly loud. I really have been looking forward to coming here, and it did not disappoint. I would recommend not being my keto diet as the desserts are super rich. I had a equivalent to the carrot cake. It was a big mistake. Although it was quite yummy , ibate it a little too fast and I'm sure it was well done, again being on a keto diet and taking a break that's not the place you want to go to unless you're just going to drink coffee. My Own Way thought on addition to the diet is that they do have full cream latte instead of what I to see as standard, it's not even breve. I had 2 x4 shot, hey I am kind of high maintenance, so maybe that's more on me than on them.

The food was excellent. Atmosphere was wonderful, easy to have a conversation with a group. Hard to imagine the piano or a live musician keeping that true though. Ascetics were interesting, but not compelling. Service...not great, that sort of "service with an attitude" which I'm certain is more often than not just a guise for bad service.

on date night, skip dessert at the restaurant and come here instead. or maybe youre out and buzzed with your friends.. what could be better than ending the night with a brownie and some ice cream in this cozy, unique, dimly lit spot? not much! warm, welcoming staff; good hot cocoa (get the cinnamon one); a great environment; and excellent desserts (i dont think you can go wrong with any of them).

There was a little bit of a wait for this "haunted" dessert/cafe. We waited about 10 minutes for a seat, and enjoyed the different decorations and ambiance in the meantime. We got the chocolate raspberry fool and the blackberry cobbler. The fool was a good combination of rich and tart, but it wasn't extraordinary by dessert standards. The ambiance seemed to be the main reason most people enjoy and visit this place. The decor was mismatched and quirky, while lights were mostly off for the spooky vibes. Overall it was a nice experience for a late night snack!

Unique and wonderful place; a truly beautiful experience. Awesome atmosphere and ambiance, and lovely music. Try the Orange mocha! Absolutely the best place for late night coffee and or dessert. Try the Raspberry Fool (if there are any left.) Great for showing people the city. It's a fun quirky, bizarrely romantic place. Chill and low key yet still with a fun twist on classy. A must visit!
