Absolutely the best Polish restaurant in town. Excellent food, excellent service and the best host/owner recommending house specialties. Go and enjoy the atmosphere and ambience of this restaurant.

We were from out-of-state my aunt and uncle brought us here. I am Polish and have never been to a Polish restaurant. This place is amazing authentic. I can't remember everything we ordered but I had the breaded pork chop and it was so good! I think we had the sauerkraut and sweet cream perogies my aunt ordered. Great service, quiet and welcoming atmosphere. My aunt and uncle go all the time from my understanding. When we visit again we would like to go there.

We had a great experience at this restaurant! Everything we tried was full of flavor and really well prepared. The meat dishes were especially tender, and the potato options were all super tasty and unique. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, and the service was friendly without being overbearing. We also got a few small appetizers before our mains, which was a nice surprise. Definitely a spot we’d come back to!
