This place was phenomenal! I strongly suggest the sausage soup & the debutant main dish as it allows you to try multiple dishes. All of them were delicious.

I had a lovely dinner here on a Friday night. We shared a delicious selection of appetizers & drinks. The pierogies were top notch, & everything tasted so authentic (said my Ukrainian friend). The pianist playing live music was also fabulous - excellent acoustic renditions of hits from the 90s. I hope to return next time I am in Montreal.

Lovely place, great atmosphere, very friendly service & homey feel to the delicious meal, just like someone's grandma just made it fresh for us. Pirogies, Kotlets & cabbage stew Bigos was unbelievably delicious.

The staff were very much'in the weeds' when we came in, but they still treated us with care & made the experience unforgettable. I'd like to thank Casper specifically for making the experience a special one. Thank you to all of the staff there, we very much appreciate you.

Exceptional food that gets traditional Polish cuisine down to every little detail. Nightly piano to add to the incredible atmosphere & service. All at a very reasonable price for old Montreal.
