A winter trio, made for midweek

Wednesday & Thursday Dinner Special — $49

If you’re craving a proper warm-up, this is your midweek ritual:


Borshch + Varenyky + Kompot = $49

  • Borshch isn’t just soup — it’s an icon. Families make it their own, passing recipes down like heirlooms. It’s rich, earthy, and deeply comforting, the kind of bowl that warms you from the inside out.

  • Varenyky are Ukraine’s beloved dumplings - soft, generous, and made for sharing. They belong at celebrations, family dinners, and winter nights when you want something that feels like home.

  • Kompot is the sweet finish - a traditional fruit drink that tastes like a gentle exhale after the last bite.

It’s simple, classic, and exactly what winter asks for.


Winter at Otakoï

Mulled wine season is here 🍷

When the nights get sharper, we bring out the spices.

Mulled wine is one of those winter rituals that exists across many cultures, and in our corner of the world it’s about the same thing: warmth, togetherness, and slowing down. A cup in your hands, a table in front of you, and the rest of the city can wait.

New winter tastes: Varenyky + Banosh

Winter is also when we lean into the richer, comforting side of Ukrainian cuisine - and we’ve added new varenyky flavours for the season.


And if you haven’t tried banosh yet, this is your sign. It’s a traditional, deeply comforting dish - creamy, warming, and made for cold nights when you want something hearty and a little different. It’s the kind of food that feels like someone cared enough to feed you properly.


Not ready for dinner? Start with a flat red

Sometimes winter comfort starts smaller: a flat red coffee, warm in your hands. If you’re passing by and you need a moment of heat and calm, come in - even if it’s just for that.


Come warm up with us 💛

Winter can be long, but it doesn’t have to feel lonely.Bring a friend. Bring a date. Bring yourself. We’ll do the rest — with borshch, dumplings, mulled wine, and the kind of hospitality that makes a cold night feel softer.
