Everything was absolutely delicious. My friend & I split the beef stroganoff & pork schnitzel... I ate every crumb on the plate. The atmosphere is unbeatable. I love the piano player. Couldn't recommend this place highly enough!

The best pierogies I've ever had! My father grew up in Warsaw & we've had lots of pierogies over the years, but these are the most delicious, tender, tasty flavourful pierogies I've ever had! I paid many compliments to the staff & was told that their grandmother was in the kitchen making the pierogies! Surprisingly my favourite pierogies were the ones with sautéed mushrooms inside, I tried three different kinds & they were all delicious. Highly recommended, I loved the crêpes as well.

What a great little find! The atmosphere was so cozy; live piano the entire time. The staff was friendly & efficient. But best of all, the food was fantastic! I really enjoyed their tasting platter as well as the beef stroganov. I also really loved their pierogi with beef! I absolutely loved my experience & will recommend to anyone who is looking to try Eastern European food!
