Delicious!!!!! Beautiful! Best place for lunch and dessert. I loved their borscht, stuffed cabbage rolls and pierogi awesome, but the dessert crepes with cream and strawberries is a MUST!!!! They made everything in house and got bread from a real french bakery which was a great addition to the borscht. We will be back! I am from Russia and their food is so good!!!!!!!
Nice place. Good perogies and potato pancakes although my server was grumpy that day
Incredible food, impeccable service.!!!!!!!!!!!
Very delicious food
During our trip to Colorado Springs, we happily discovered this delightful restaurant. The food was quite good, and I highly recommend their delicious pierogies. The only drawback was the somewhat slow kitchen service; it took approximately an hour to receive our meal after placing our order.
Came for Mother's Day lunch. Called in a reservation ahead of time. It was not our first visit to this restaurant so we were pretty familiar that food takes longer and came in with such expectation, especially considering it was a holiday. The outdoor seating area is lovely and the food is usually good. However, since the moment we arrived for our reservation we were told that the kitchen is backed up and it will be 45 minutes to an hour for food, which we were fine with but they seemed disappointed that we did not chose to leave. But it's not like we could just go someplace else without a reservation. Then, we had to really fight to be seated outside, and were told there was not one open when we saw tables open as we walked by and were willing to wait for one to be cleared. Once seated, we were given a menu which unfortunately was a much smaller Mother's Day menu that did not have some of our favorite options. But again we chose to stay and make the best of it. Service was really lackluster. With over an hour wait for food we were not even offered glasses of water or offered an option to order additional drinks even though they were all empty by the time food was brought out. Dessert had to be ordered at the time of original order and even that was like pulling teeth because dessert was not on the limited menu so had to specifically ask about crepes for the kids . Once food was dropped off we did not see our server again until she dropped off the check without asking if we needed anything else or checking how we enjoyed our meal or offering anything like ketchup for the fries. It really felt like we were an inconvenience. Final blow was additional service charge built into the check and suggested tip amount was calculated not just on the food total but also on taxes and the already built in 4% service charge.
This restaurant is amazing. We went for breakfast and sat on the patio on a gorgeous Sunday morning. Birds chirping and sun shining:) the staff and the owner are very friendly. We highly recommend ☀️
What a delightful little place! All of the staff are friendly and personable as well as efficient. We had a group of 7 and they went out of their way to accommodate us. The owner/chef is from Poland and her food is out of this world! We had the flight of perogies, bison blintz, borscht, hamburger and fries, smoked salmon potato pancakes, and the fruit crepes... all was delicious. The chef comes out to the tables to greet each customer.

Everything is authentic and incredibly delicious. The owner came out to greet us! The hunter’s stew, cabbage pierogies, all incredible. And the dessert crepes. Eat here, you won’t regret it.

The atmosphere was okay, the service was great food was not as good as I expected. The main dishes were lacking in seasoning and the side of sauerkraut was sweet and the mashed potatoes had the taste and texture of instant potatoes. Not bad but not really worth seeking out for another visit.

Overall a good lunch. I had the salmon potato pancake. I thought it tasted great but a little pricey. My wife had the chicken fried pork cutlet. She thought it was very tasty, but the mashed potatoes could use a little more flavor.The waitress was polite enough. We will probably be back in the future.
