Award-winning farm-to-table restaurant "Mark & Lev" is located in the scenic countryside of Tula Oblast, 120 km from Moscow. TimeOut magazine labelled it as "the chief local food restaurant" in Russia. At "Mark & Lev" we use only locally sourced produce from small and mid-sized farms within a 150 km range. All our suppliers are both our neighbours and our friends since they live and work close by.
The brand's second restaurant opened in 2016 in Rublyovka neighbourhood near Moscow. It became an outpost for the Tula farm cluster, as well as for other farmers from European Russia who share in the same philosophy.

It's the sort of place where you hope no one notices you emptying the breadbasket to mop up every last bit of salad dressing and sauce.
