This is a Mom and pop polish restaurant that reminds me of the cafeteria style dining that is common in Eastern Europe. The menu is taped on the wall and you order from the cashier and pay first. You then pick a seat and then wait for your food to be ready and you fetch it yourself from the cashier. The food was fairly priced for the size flavor and the amount of food. The cashier was nice enough to know we wanted to sample multiple things so for any entrees that come with one side- she did half portion of the sides so we could try diff types. Don't expect any ambience- but it's places like this that I love- the focus is on good affordable food.

A great Polish restaurant, true hidden gem of Greenpoint. A nondescript interior, no frills menu serving great Polish staples like kielbasa, perogies, goulash, potato pancakes, etc. Probs are huge, food is delicious, and the prices are great.

YUM! Boo to my friend who was gate keeping thing place (jkjkjk) I ordered the polish plate to share with a friend of mine. It filled us both up! It came with kielbasa, potato pancakes, meat pierogi, mashed potatoes, and stuffed cabbage. Everything on that plate was so good! My favorite was the pierogi, potato pancake and stuffed cabbage. My other friend got a chicken cutlet that came with sauerkraut, beets and mashed potatoes. The cutlet was huge!! She said the dish was very good. We enjoyed our food as it felt comforting and homey. The service was friendly and she was informative of what we would be getting and how big the plate would be. It's not a restaurant style place. You order, find a place to sit, eat and go. We noticed a lot of working men go in and out for their lunch breaks and small families came in too. We didn't feel rushed either as we came before the lunch rush but I could imagine it being packed if you came during the lunch or dinner rush. Overall we really enjoyed this place and will come back again.

Really delicious and authentic Polish spot! Tried their potato dumpling, the saurkraut and mushroom pierogi, the boneless pork chop, and their kielbasa. They also came with sides such as pickles and yogurt soaked cucumbers which were great for cutting the meat. My Polish friend said all dishes were authentic and spot on but found the pickles to be younger than she is used to. I personally though the pierogi was the star. The sauerkraut tang didn't overpower the mushrooms which has a noticeable flavor. The wrappers were also thinner than other places so the ratio of the stuffed contents was great. The pork cutlet reminded me very much of schnitzel/milanesa but less salty. The kielbasa was very flavorful and balanced. Finally, the pyza (a dish I've never tried before so I don't have a great comparison point) was a plain dish with a thick wrapping and pretty unseasoned pork filling. Overall, great spot. Most everyone spoke Polish and they were playing a jeopardy-like game show on the TV, and had several ad booklets which looked like yellow pages. Prices are fair. Service is quick and generally friendly though the staff was noticeably less warm towards non-Polish speakers. They are cash only though so come prepared!

No frills & delicious Polish home cooked comfort food. A must try! This place was recommended to me by my Polish friend and she claims it's the most authentic borscht in the city. It did not disappoint. It's the kind of homey hardy comfort food you want on a cold day. The cheese potato pierogis always hit and paired so well with the sauerkraut side. The pickles we're good with the meat pierogis. The Ukrainian borscht was warm and seasoned. It's decent portions for decent prices. The service was nice and food came out quick. There's plenty of seating indoors. The interior has minimal decor and Polish TV playing. There's nice art work that kind of reminds me of being in someone's home.

One of the last remaining authentic Polish restaurants in an ever evolving neighborhood... delicious food - tastes just like grandmas! Family owned, big portions, traditional homemade taste, polish TV in the background.. a little slice of Poland.. and what Greenpoint used to be. Recommend the cutlets - huge! - and the pierogis. Even if you're vegan, you can come for some side salads... best beet salad I've ever had. Pro tip: You can tell this place is a gem simply by the amount of locals that come here... it's a go to spot for Polish people themsleves!

PURCHASED · Hungarian pancake with red cabbage and pickles on the side · Pierogi boiled. Whatever you do, get them boiled--so much better and healthier than fried. POSITIVE · Polish goods. · Generous portions. Yes. You will have leftovers. If you are like me and you eat a lot, you will be full. NEGATIVE · A bit pricey. But, not too bad for the portions. IMPRESSION · Wait for your Polish goods while you watch some Polish soap opera. If you're looking for Polish food, look no further. This place gets a 5 out of 5 for the generous portions and the yummy authentic Polish food. I love this place.

Authentic affordable polish food! (And LARGE portions) Ambiance: no frills polish place, so many polish speaking customers, and polish tv playing in the background. Kielbasa + potatoes: kielbasa was savory and flavorful! The scoring of the kielbasa also gave it a nice chew and juiciness and made it easy to cut! Potatoes were a great combination to eat with kielbasa. Meat periogies: buttery, meaty, hearty. Not for the weak of heart. The dough was fresh and thin, the meat was so filling, and caramelize onions and butter covered everything. Other notes: each entree comes with a side salad! Recommend the beet salad! A nice sweet refreshing salad. If you want something very light and mildly creamy go for the cucumber salad!
