First, I would like to mention that our server was wonderful, friendly, and professional. However, we were extremely disappointed with the food and felt that the experience did not match the prices charged. In particular, we ordered 50 grams of caviar, as shown on our bill, but what we received looked far from that amount. I have attached photos for your reference. We dine regularly at restaurants that serve caviar, and we are familiar with standard serving sizes. Typically, 50 grams of caviar is presented in a full pot, similar to the reference photo we’ve attached, which is from novikov. The caviar we received on the five blinis looks more like 5 g per piece – around 25 grams in total, not 50 grams as stated. I will include a photo of what a 5g caviar bump looks like.

From the moment we arrived, the elegant atmosphere, warm lighting and refined décor created the perfect setting for a relaxed yet upscale evening.

Then we tried the St. Moritz Taster, which supposedly included 30 grams of caviar — but it looked more like 10 grams to me. Since everything is plated in the kitchen, it’s hard to tell the exact amount, but I’ve added pictures along with a comparison photo of a 50 gram caviar box for reference. We also ordered the 50 gram caviar portion, which again was served without the original box. Visually, it looked closer to 25 grams than 50 grams, although it was claimed to be 50 grams. Please compare it...
