Perogie Lili comes across as a cozy, welcoming neighborhood gem offering homemade Ukrainian fare that feels comforting and authentic. The space is small and colorful with floral murals, creating a homey atmosphere, and the service is consistently friendly and attentive. The menu features a wide range of pierogies, many vegetarian options, and hearty borscht, with fillings like potato and cheddar, caramelized onions, sour cream, cherry, cabbage, and wild mushrooms with bacon. Dishes are described as fresh to order, soft and flavorful, with dough that melts in the mouth. There is a sense of care in the experience, with good value, generous portions, and the option to dine in or take away, plus samples and helpful guidance from staff. A portion of proceeds supporting humanitarian relief in Ukraine adds meaning to the visit. Overall, it feels like a place to return to explore more flavors and to feel at home.
Not a fan. Perogies were very very mushy with a potato mash inside that was far too smooth, creamy, & oily. The onions were also sooooo soooo greasy! I felt sick after eating only a few
The borscht was good though. Could definitely use more flavour, but it's a pretty cozy soup.
The potato & cheese pierogi were cold & too oily, but the cabbage pierogis were good. Borscht was ok. Sadly everything is served in takeout containers even if you eat inside. You need better spoons too!
My daughters & I love this spot! We have tried all of the perogies & the borscht. The atmosphere is comforting & welcoming. Friendly service! Highly recommend!

The menu isn't huge, but you can find all the main favorite dishes. It's very clean & beautiful inside, with a warm & cozy atmosphere that immediately makes you feel welcome. ✨
The staff is just wonderful, very pleasant & beautiful girls working there, always with a smile & ready to help. 😊
& their borscht is simply magnificent! Rich, aromatic, with a deep flavor. & the pierogies (varenyky) are incredibly delicious - you can tell everything is made by hand & with heart, following the best traditions. 😋 Every dish feels like it's warmed with care.
If you want to try real Ukrainian borscht & pierogies in Montreal, & experience a heartfelt warmth & hospitality, this is definitely the place for you! I recommend Perogie Lili with all my heart! 👍
Hidden gem spot in Mile end for authentic Ukrainian food, highly recommend! Try the freshly made borscht & varenyky (potato & cheese, cherry for dessert)
10/10 would comeback & buy the bulk perogie. Got the sweet cheese & potato cheese, they don't skim on the bacon. The borscht is hearty & warm, really suitable for winter days 💕
Just came to grab a late lunch today before I heading to the airport & I'm so glad I did. These pierogies are absolutely phenomenal. I got the cheese & potato with sour cream, onions, dill, & bacon. 🤯🤤
The service was great! very friendly very warm very inviting & they convinced me that I had to try the borscht before I left & it did not disappoint. Great way to warm up a cold day.
