Vysota 5642

Vysota 5642 is a restaurant of Adyghe and broader Caucasian cuisine on Bolshoy Cherkassky Pereulok, between Kitay-Gorod and Lubyanka in Moscow. Its name refers to Mount Elbrus, whose western summit is the highest point in Russia and Europe. The restaurant presents regional cooking in a setting that combines the character of a working kitchen with a carefully designed dining room.

The menu centres on Adyghe and Kabardian traditions, with Georgian cooking also represented. Regional specialities sit alongside familiar Caucasian dishes, with an emphasis on grilled food, handmade dough, dairy products and slow-cooked preparations. The kitchen uses produce associated with the Elbrus foothills, including poultry, cheeses, sour cream and honey. An open cooking area with a substantial grill keeps the preparation of fire-cooked food visible within the room.

The interior by NB-Studio brings together high concrete ceilings, exposed metalwork and pipes, and an unplastered brick wall from nineteenth-century Nizhny Novgorod. Tall windows can be opened across the space, while forged chandeliers and panels of warm yellow-orange glass add colour to the industrial materials. The open kitchen is decorated with hanging cured meats and bundles of herbs, reinforcing the connection between the room and its Caucasian culinary focus.

Vysota 5642 suits diners looking for a sit-down meal built around regional cooking rather than a generic international menu. It can work for a planned meal in central Moscow, including occasions when the atmosphere of an open kitchen and a substantial interior is part of the experience. The combination of Adyghe specialities, Georgian influences and a design shaped by brick, concrete, glass and metal gives the restaurant a clear sense of place without separating the food from the room around it.

The restaurant is located at Bolshoy Cherkassky Pereulok, 15-17, building 1. Table requests can be made through the restaurant’s reservation channels, with the booking team contacting the guest to confirm the arrangement.
