Restaurant Europa — Restaurant in Pepper Pike

This is the best restaurant in the area and it's very reasonably priced. Seriously, the "Europa Pastry" is to die for.

I've had most of the non-seafood entrees, and they're all stellar. The Brisket in cherry gravy is one of my all time favorites, very tender meat with a flavorful (but not overpowering) gravy. The Russian Schnitzel is my fiance's go to, the breading is crisp and tasty, the mushroom sauce is great, and the potatoes are probably the crispiest non- potato chip potatoes I've ever had. The stuffed cabbage is also very tasty and well-seasoned.

For how good the entrees are, the appetizers are even better. Seriously, the Europa Pastry (brie, nuts, and berries in a puff pastry) is the best thing I've ever eaten, and we get it every time we go. The beef filled potato pancakes are pillowy and delicious, the chicken blinis are creamy and well seasoned, and the marinated herring is delightfully salty and tender (without being overly "fishy"). There have been numerous times we've just ordered a bunch of appetizers instead of entrees, they're all that good.

All the desserts we've tried are excellent (and homemade), but the Napoleon is what we always come back to. Layers of buttery puff pastry with a delicious raspberry syrup (for FOUR DOLLARS!) It's also the only thing light enough to eat after all the other food.

There's something at Europa for everyone, and the staff will make you feel right at home. A 10/10 if there...

Luxurious Russian dining. This restaurant is ethnic Russian in theme, and lives up to a high standard of authenticity. Atmosphere, servers and menu were all native to the county which provided for a genuine first time experience, Our meals started with blini pancakes and salmon caviar, which came garnished with lemon and mint. This was an excellent start to our meals, and paired well with my vodka martini that came garnished with more salmon caviar. We tried to sample an item from each category of the menu, which I highly recommend. Given, that the menu is incredibly native to Russia, features unique dishes/ingredients and items are high in quality. My entree of pretzel-almond crusted trout was incredibly high in quality and was priced reasonably. Prices again, are very reasonable for the quality of what you will receive upon dining. Excellent drink and dessert menu as well, which included large varieties of imported vodkas, rum and ethnic pastry desserts. I would return here, it was an amazing, high-quality ethnic Russian dining experience that I won't...

Every Friday night Latin Dance Party🎉 FREE!!!! 💃🏼🕺🏼💃🏼🕺🏼💃🏼🕺🏼🪩🎵🎶 I am sooo grateful that Europa has this Latin dance party every week because there's not a lot of places to dance like this in Ohio (or even Cleveland).

8:30PM is a mini Latin dance class (for $5). But if you arrive after the class for the dance party it's FREE! It goes until 2AM! 🙌🏼🎵🎶

I love that it has a very casual, friendly, safe atmosphere ❤️ I didn't know how to dance at all when I first came to Europa, but everyone was so nice and taught me how to dance. There are a lot of professional dancers there 😅 or people who have taken classes before, but there are also some beginner dancers. 👍🏼 So it's fun for everyone!!

The young, male bartender did get mad and rolled his eyes at me when I asked for a water 😅 I was waiting for my friend and then planning on ordering drinks later... Sorry I want to hydrate? 🤷🏼‍♀️ But besides that, I have never had a bad...
