Paninaro

St Petersburg


Delightfully off the beaten path, Paninaro is a gem set inside one of the Petrogradky's most striking apartment buildings (don't miss the murals up top – visible on the opposite side of the street). Stop in for tasty house-made pastas topped with grilled vegetables, creative salads and pizzas, and refreshing cocktails.
