POKE TOP

POKE TOP: A restaurant offering creative cuisine and cocktails. Sushi rolls and poke bowls. Food as art. Our dishes are masterpieces that others try to emulate.

POKE TOP is a gastrobar located in the heart of a bustling metropolis. Upon entering, you're greeted by the sound of birdsong. You then step through the "curtain" and are immersed in a unique atmosphere of tranquility and serenity. Time seems to stand still.

What inspired the creation of POKE TOP? One of the owners, Yana Fomina, is a great fan of poke. This Hawaiian dish is also prepared in Japan, China, and other countries, sometimes under different names. It was the dish itself that inspired her, as it's both filling and diverse. You can change almost all the ingredients and sauces, creating endless variations. This led to the idea of creating a small cafe where poke bowls would be the foundation, complemented by various ingredients and sauces. The gastrobar has evolved, and with it, the menu has expanded. It has now become a full-fledged Pan-Asian restaurant. Today, POKE TOP surprises its guests with its signature sushi rolls, nigiri, appetizers, cocktails, and hot dishes.

The concept behind POKE TOP. The concept is to create a small gastrobar with its own unique soul and character. It's a place where food and drinks are perfectly paired. The chef, Ivan Epifantsev, is responsible for the cuisine. Here, everyone can find something to their taste: nigiri, sushi rolls, poke bowls, and a wide selection of Pan-Asian appetizers. The large open bar, with its charismatic bartenders, is always a popular spot for guests to relax and chat. Every employee at POKE TOP wants visitors to remember their experience and enjoy the moment.

The uniqueness of POKE TOP. What makes this project unique is that POKE TOP focuses not only on the cuisine or the bar separately, but on the perfect combination of food and drink. In addition to its extensive menu, POKE TOP offers the perfect drink to complement or enhance each dish.

POKE TOP collaborates with various bars and restaurants. The creators of the gastrobar invite chefs and bartenders from different cities, and also work with specialists from Novosibirsk.

POKE TOP hosts events of various concepts: wine dinners, gastronomic dinners, and bar dinners. Due to this variety of styles and concepts, the gastrobar continues to develop rapidly and delight its guests.

The interior. The restaurant is located in a historic, cozy mansion that has witnessed a great deal of history. The building is a monument of architecture, built in 1920. The natural wood has been preserved inside. The arches and ceilings have been left in their original state. When you enter, you can fully immerse yourself in the atmosphere, as the interior elements have been preserved in their original form. The antique wooden trim and beams, which reach a length of 9 meters, are a visual highlight. Another unique feature of the interior is the presence of two antique electrical outlets.

The menu and its features. The main feature of the POKE TOP menu is the careful pairing of dishes with drinks. The signature cocktails, created by the bartenders, feature unique ingredients prepared in the gastrobar's own small laboratory. Therefore, it can be confidently said that these cocktails are only available at POKE TOP, as the bartenders have a unique approach to their preparation.

The menu features Pan-Asian cuisine. The chef complements it and creates new dishes, with no restrictions on his creativity. All these signature dishes are created within the concept of the gastrobar, which emphasizes Pan-Asian flavors.
