Being Polish and Czech ancestry, I had to go and try the food. Recommended by friends, scanned the menu. Take your time choosing as the list is large! Soups, salads, sandwiches and main courses abound! Worth a trip for GREAT food, fast service and a wonderful atmosphere!

First time we tried this restaurant. This was our observations. We were seated in a large, long booth which could have easily seated 6-8 people. The seat cover had a big rip exposing the filling of the booth seat. The menus were hard to read because they looked old. We ordered the bread and garlic cheese appetizer. The “bread” was hard, fried strips with garlic cheese on top. The meal was chicken schnitzel and a fried pork dish.The music was upbeat, and dancy with a mix of modern and retro. I don’t know what to say about the staff since we did not have much inter action.

Awful service, food is good but actually having a server show up to take your order is not a given at this place on a weekend. Not planning to go back.

This place was a joke. The manager does not know how to handle complaints. They don’t know how to time their food orders. They brought my food out 20 mins after they served everyone else at the table .The cook is probably the one that should be at fault when you serve food you should have it all come out at the same time. The food was actually dry and horrible. I am a cook and I would not serve dried chicken. I didnt even eat it all .We actually waited for no reason the manager gave me 30% off of my meal. It was the worst meal I have ever had the waitress was worthless

My first time going to this restaurant. I was dining with some friends and they brought the food out a different orders. The manager was a terrible manager. She did not know how to handle complaints. I would skip this place. Their menus are so worn out. you can’t even read them.

I was not pleased with my delivery order. For $70, the 1/2 duck I received was bland and so dry that I had to make other leftovers for lunch because no meat came off the bone. The skin was both fat and dry which was also not something I experienced before. The cranberry sauce that came with smelled fermented and I had to make my own side of greens so I would have anything to eat. Even the roasted potatoes were just meh and while I know delivery can sometimes make food less appealing this was definitely not a good meal. I was so bummed because I used to frequent the old Harlem location with no issues.
