East along the boardwalk from Coney Island, at Brooklyn's southernmost end, lies Brighton Beach, once an affluent seaside resort complete with a racetrack, casino and major hotel. Today, the largely residential neighborhood is often referred to as "Little Odessa" (the film of the same name was set here), and is home to the country's largest community of Russian émigrés, who arrived in the 1970s following a relaxation of emigration restrictions on Soviet citizens entering the US. The main attractions of Brighton Beach are the restaurants, which really heat up each evening, becoming a near-parody of a rowdy Russian night out with lots of food, loud live music, lots of glass-clinking and free-flowing chilled vodka. Guests dress to the nines, and the dancing girls will have you feeling like you've landed in a foreign Vegas. The most popular and accessible spots are National, Ocean and Odessa , all on Brighton Beach Avenue at 273, 1029, and 1113, respectively.
