      Babushka’s – Hyde Park is our take on a true Eastern European dining experience, right here in South Tampa. Just minutes from Hyde Park, Downtown Tampa, the University of Tampa, and Raymond James Stadium, we bring together classic Russian, Ukrainian, and Eastern European dishes in a cozy, dacha-inspired space that feels warm, relaxed, and a little nostalgic.
      From comforting, traditional plates to our caviar service and house-infused vodkas, everything we serve is meant to be shared and enjoyed at your own pace. It’s the perfect spot for a romantic date night, birthdays, anniversaries, or just a memorable night out.
      We also love hosting larger parties and special gatherings, and offer private dining options for more intimate celebrations. On weekends, join us for brunch and a slower, more indulgent start to your day. However you come in, we want it to feel like you’re visiting family, just with better food and drinks.
