One of the trendiest restaurants in St Petersburg with great food and delicious cocktails! Mansarda is one of my families favorite spots and while a little pricier than normal, you get the best view of St Isaac's Cathedral in the city. Expect a large menu with options for everyone - booking is recommended however.

One of the Bougiest experiences you can get in the city - it's the only real place you can do caviar and vodka tasting. It won't come cheap, but if it's on your list it's a must do!

Sightseeing
The Hermitage has one of the finest collections of art and artifacts in the world and is actually considered the world's second largest art museum. I would especially recommend a visit to the 'Winter Palace' (one of the six buildings of the museum) because it was actually a former main residence of Russian Tsars. Hugely historical and worth a visit!
