Pelmenyi withdrawal here

Pelmenyi in Buckeye country?

Are there any Russian restaurants in Columbus, Ohio? I haven't been able to locate one. I moved here from a much smaller city that doesn't have an especially visible Russian presence but had three Russian restaurants.

Welcome to Columbus alumshubby. There used to be a Russian restaurant in the Short North called Matrushka’s, but I believe it has closed. I've been back here about two years now, and have not run across any Russian restaurants to date. The free papers in town (The Other Paper, Columbus Alive) have pretty good dining guides if you want to check into something else.

Response by poster: Thx; been here since last winter, seen a reference to Matrushka's, haven't seen anything in Other.

Perhaps you could call the Russian Center and ask if they know of any nearby.
