★★★★★ 5.0 Tim Schneiderwind · Oct 2025

One of the best meals I’ve enjoyed in a long time. My schnitzel dinner was fantastic. Crispy and juicy, grilled veggies were full of flavor and potatoes were earthy and juicy. We loved the fresh atmosphere. The food is fresh and made with lots of attention to quality. The multilingual staff are friendly and enthusiastic about the business. Might become regulars….

Very good food and beautifully presented. The potato cheeze perogi and French fries cooked in beef tallow are amazing. Baked chicken thighs cooked in its own fat(no oils) so moist and seasoned nicely. Spring salad in olive oil is so fresh, awesome salad! Entries can be altered to your requirements, too. Lovely atmosphere and cool music of the 1980's. Coffee is awesome including the charming ceramic cup and matching saucer. Beautiful and friendly staff. They go above and beyond! They recently added decaf coffee.

I heard about this place so I decided to stop in since I was in the area. They advertise as a bakery but in my opinion they are a bakery,deli,small grocery store and a sandwich shop. They didn't have a lot of bakery goods when I visited but they did have a nice selection of pre made Polish foods as well as homemade pierogis. I did buy a few items as well as Oplatki..a traditional Polish wafer used for the Christmas Eve blessing before everyone eats. Would like to go back and try one of their hot or cold sandwiches when I'm in the area again.

Deli-style and made to order food. I haven't yet tried the bakery goods but the food always smells amazing when walking thru the door. Tasty food. It's a little sad this place is becoming better known because the competition for food is real! Things sell out. In all seriousness, that's a good sign. The available pierogi are on a rotating schedule unless ordering a fresh prepped option. Cucumber salad, beet salad and spring mix salad are favorites. Great selection of rotating meat selections. Last week the chicken thighs did not disappoint. Plan to spend approximately 20 minutes for ordering, prep/packaging and then checkout. Good food isn't served at drive-thru speeds. It's worth the time. Parking is not ideal. There are 2 other restaurant concepts in the same strip mall and m

Amazing little place with great food. Our go to for sure. Every food we have gotten to date was amazing. Cozy atmosphere. Great place to sit eat and chat. Maybe just change the coffee type you serve. Tastes a bit like Folgers. Can’t wait to go back.
