Russian Food in Columbus, Ohio
Reviews are mixed about this restaurant, but if you're new to Russian food, Hawa Russia makes a good introduction to some of the most popular dishes. Beet soup, pelmeni, pirozhki, and other traditional specialties are on the menu. If you so choose, you can even try kvas.
Life is too short not to try Russian food. Though your fellow Columbus diners may attempt some unorthodox combinations (one blogger used pirozhki as "bread sticks"), and your fellow Russian diners may mock any attempts at reproducing their national cuisine, Hawa Russia makes available dishes that would otherwise remain unknown to a city that has long been bereft of Russian food. Full credit should be given to those behind Hawa Russia for giving residents of, and visitors to, Columbus, Ohio, the opportunity to experience this tasty cuisine.
Hawa Russia is located at 2680 E. Dublin Granville Rd, Columbus, Ohio. The chef is from Ukraine and has worked at other restaurants serving classic Russian dishes.

Wonderful Kerry! I don’t often go to Columbus from Marion, Ohio but the restaurant is definitely on my side of town and I shall go! And I must take my cook son.
I’m sure for a bowl of good borscht made by a Ukrainian Chef we can overlook all the things that need to be worked out. I’ve never made pirozhki, fried or baked, so this will be a treat.
Thanks much,
Na Bci Dobre
