A New York classic that never changes in the best way. Eating here feels like home. The food is always incredible, and the pierogis really are little bites of heaven.

I'm confused by people who didn't like this restaurant. Dishes look and taste incredible here. Dishes please consistently, staff responds quickly, and quality remains a focus. The staff members are visibly attractive people. We won't wait long to eat here again.

One of my favorite restaurants in the city, period. The latkes alone are worth a visit plus the kielbasa sausage of course. The seasonal hot apple cider is great too as is the Ukrainian beer. Friendly service and great outdoor seating. The legend lives on!

I had known about this place for almost 4 years but decided to finally go tonight. I was not let down

We had to wait about 5 or so mins to be seated because it was at capacity inside (on a monday which is a great sign for business)

We ordered a beer, 4 perogies, beef stroganoff, and veggie/rice stuffed cabbage in tomato sauce. It was all out in like 10 minutes, which is amazing considering how busy it was.

I had the stuffed cabbage and I think I said wow after every bite. I will be coming back for sure!

Everything was mid. There are in ny for years but I expected more. Very slow service, food was decent, atmosphere kinda dead.
Not bad but there are definetely better places, especially in East Village.
