Reminded me of my gramma’s Eastern European home cooking: delicious beet soup, goat cheese & beet salad, veal meatballs, mashed potatoes and apple kuka (strudel-like cake)! Although people rave about the beef stroganoff, the beef was dry & stringy and I had to add a lot of salt & pepper. Also, the cabbage rolls had tasty tomato sauce and lots of meat & rice but just a wafer-thin cabbage wrapping.

This was our first time trying Poish cuisine and our server was immensely helpful in helping us pick out a dish. We had the scalloped tenderloins in cranberry sauce and the veal meat balls. The food was outstanding. The service was prompt and efficient. Highly recommended for the brilliant food and service.

Potato dumplings to dream about for days! The veal meatballs are so delicious. Perfect dinner for a chilly night in Chicago!

A nice and affordable place! The staff were kind and helpful. The menu, prices, and gorgeous Polish servers are polite, but the food is even better. As a vegetarian, I was delighted to discover several delicious options, such as beet soup with mushroom dumplings and pierogis with cheese and potato. They were very delicious! I finished it up with a Polish Plate, which featured sausage, mashed potatoes, sauerkraut, pierogis, and a cabbage roll - a lot of stuff! My friends had the same, plus a pint of Okocim. So good! I'll be returning to try more of their vegetarian selections.

This place is a Chicago institution, but I didn't expect to be blown away like I was. At $38, the Special for Two platter is probably the best value dinner in terms of quantity and quality that I've had in Chicago. It includes all of the greatest hits: potato pancakes, polish sausage, breaded chicken, steamed veggies, bacon wrapped plum, pierogis, and stuffed cabbage. Everything was delicious but we particularly enjoyed the stuffed cabbage which tasted like a warm hug, the bacon wrapped plum because obviously, and the potato pancakes. I also tried the Pickle Soup which was a special because I was feeling adventurous and it was low key Super friendly service and cozy environs were the cherries on top.

The food was spectacular all around. The Veal Liver was perfect, and the Vienna schnitzel was scrumptious. Great atmosphere, with attentive staff. Great for group meals or for dinner out with the kids!!
