Atlas Vin Bistro

Atlas Vin Bistro, located at 4A, 2nd Sovetskaya Street, is a place where the wine list becomes an integral part of the experience. It's a restaurant featuring French cuisine with a focus on French-inspired dishes.

In terms of gastronomy, Atlas Vin Bistro is a cosmopolitan restaurant inspired by the atmosphere and traditions of southern France and the French Riviera. It offers comfortable European cuisine with French accents, subtly infused with Asian influences. Chef Mikhail Khan prioritizes locally sourced ingredients, selecting suppliers from the Leningrad region to ensure the freshness and quality of the meat, fruits, and vegetables. Classic asparagus with poached egg pairs harmoniously with eel, beef tartare is served with cheese mousse and truffle oil, and fried artichokes are served with a truffle-coconut sauce. Guests can enjoy tarte with crab and guacamole, pâté de foie gras, spicy shrimp with avocado, and a variety of antipasti with jamón, cotto, sun-dried tomatoes, olives, and a selection of cheeses, all paired with a glass of wine. Main courses include duck breast with eggplant and béchamel sauce, a layered pie with veal cheek and gorgonzola, beef tataki with brie cheese, caramelized onions, and potato cream. In the tradition of classic French establishments, offal dishes are featured on the menu, such as chicken hearts with shallots. Atlas Vin Bistro is one of the few places that serves a late breakfast. You can choose a breakfast option to suit your mood and the weather: delicate oatmeal with lemon and blueberries, syrniki (cheese pancakes) with jam and sour cream, grilled avocado with burrata cheese, an omelet with red caviar and a glass of sparkling wine, or a traditional English breakfast with bacon. There are four types of croissants: classic with butter, chocolate, with prosciutto cotto and pesto sauce, and with egg, bacon, and tomatoes. These local breakfast options are served from 9:30 AM to 5:00 PM and are sure to please omelet lovers: with salmon and cream cheese or with crab and chuka, with shrimp and pickled cucumbers, or with red caviar – the choice is not easy! Chef Mikhail Khan is a self-made chef who honed his skills in the kitchen under the guidance of renowned colleagues. His experience includes working at prestigious St. Petersburg establishments such as "Grand Hotel Europe," "Ryba Myego Mechty," "Vse na Svoem Meste," and Pepper Moon. The name Atlas Vin Bistro immediately suggests that wine is taken very seriously here. The restaurant's wine list features a wide range of interesting options, including French champagnes, classic wines from Italian, French, and Spanish wineries, wines from the New World, as well as natural wines and trendy orange wines. A team of four sommeliers, including Darya Kandrakhanova, Olga Klimenskaya, Maxim Gladkov (a member of the St. Petersburg and Russian Association of Sommeliers and a winner of the prestigious Russian Wine Trophy 2022), and Ekaterina Azizova (a cognac expert and instructor accredited by the Bureau National Interprofessionnel du Cognac (BNIC)), are responsible for guiding guests through the tasting experiences. The project team calls themselves "smile hunters," and they strive to create a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere for every guest, embarking on a journey of flavors and experiences together. Atlas Vin Bistro offers genuine and warm gastronomy. The open kitchen promotes honesty and friendliness, allowing guests to observe the preparation of their dishes if they wish. A large table in the center of the room is perfect for hosting a fun celebration or a gathering of friends. The restaurant features a stylish and minimalist interior: the furniture is in Scandinavian style, the walls are a light gray with a hint of lavender, and the dark green tile evokes the lavender fields of Provence. Decorative elements include a giant bouquet of dried flowers on the ceiling and a large mirror that visually expands the space.
