WELCOME

to the home of Eastern European hospitality & cuisine –

ST. PETERSBURG NIGHTS-

the ONLY Russian Restaurant and Lounge in Tampa Bay!

This 150-seat, one of a kind restaurant, boasts European ambiance and is located just a block from the scenic shores of St. Pete Beach - perfect for a sunset stroll on the beach after your romantic dinner, a fun family meal following a day playing in the sand or for a wedding ceremony.  The restaurant is open every Wednesday through Sunday from 5pm till late.  Our extensive homemade menu features authentic and classic Russian, Ukrainian and other Eastern European dishes.  And it doesn’t end there – for special events or private parties we’ll cook up delicious Middle Eastern, Greek, Italian and American food too!  Visit our bar for an exclusive selection of imported beers, wines and more than 25 varieties of chilled vodkas you won’t find anywhere else (we’re not kidding, even the warehouse liquor stores don’t carry some of these brands!).  After dinner, why not relax in our Hookah Lounge where you can enjoy your own private cabana along with a broad selection of shisha and freshly brewed   teas.


But what would a European restaurant be without live entertainment?  Enjoy Russian/European musical videos on our 15-foot screen every day.  Live music every Friday and Saturday from 8:00 pm.  Euro DJ Saturdays after 10:00 pm.  International singers, bands, musicians and dancers have brought back dinner and dancing with style!  Our spacious dance floor - the biggest and best on the beach – will have you dancing the night away, especially on the weekends to the stylish sounds of Sax or when our DJ spins the best European beats and latest Moscow house mixes.  Don’t forget to check out our schedule below for special events and unique dinner shows.

 

So what is Eastern European cuisine?  Well, St. Petersburg Night’s dishes are based on delicious and hearty recipes that have been in our family for over two centuries, originating in Ismail, a port city on the Danube delta in the extreme southwest of Ukraine near the Black Sea. Guarded by a 14th-century fortress, Ismail has been populated in turn by Turks, Romanians, Moldavians, Ukrainians and, of course, Russians. Everyone brought something different to the table, so our family cookbook is as multicultural as it gets!  And if you really want to experience a truly traditional Russian style of dining then try a “RUSSIAN BANQUET”, an array of appetizers, entrees and desserts stating at only $35 per person (available daily)!  

 

Whether you’re planning a romantic dinner, a family outing, a fun night out on the town, or a special event - St. Petersburg Nights will be an experience like no other! 

EAT, DRINK, BE MERRY... AND HAVE THE ST PETERSBURG NIGHT OF YOUR LIFE!!!
