Polish Restaurants in Philadelphia, PA

“Admittedly, not having had a ton of Polish food, I never really considered it a meal that would really blow me away. However, I was really nicely surprised in the end by the meal had here.

The menu is small but seems to change a good amount seasonally, which is nice (that being said at the end I didn't feel like there was anything I would necessarily come back for on the current menu). It was a great start to be given complimentary lovely bread with two delicious spreads: an herbal butter and a cream with chichcahron-type topping (the former was by far the superior). Started with sałatka cykoria, which was a really nice salad. I appreciated the texture a lot with the breadcrumbs and the buttermilk dressing was nice-it was also a healthy portion. Next came the special of the night pierogi, which was filled with cheese and mushrooms. The potatoes and the mushrooms were divine-I honestly would not have known that there was cheese unless I had been told. The pierogies themselves were huge but I do wish that the sauce was a bit more present as it was quite scarce. Finally, the pork shoulder kiełbasa was awesome. Big fan of homemade mustard and this was a great blend of tart/spice that did well for the dish especially when garnished with the pickles. For the main, we got the monkfish. This was actually my least favorite dish as I felt the fish itself, while flaky and tender, was a bit plain. The shrimp kiełbasa and mushrooms it came with really saved it.

The place overall is a bit cramped. There are steps up to the restaurant and down to the bathroom, so be careful as it is quite easy to trip. The drink menu didn't really do much for me and I wasn't so inspired by any of the wine/beer options. Service was friendly and fairly attentive to water refills. Overall, definitely worth a try at least once, especially reiterated by being on the NYT top 50 US restaurants this year.“

“I have been patronizing M & M restaurant for many years. Marion and Margaret are the owners and operators of this little neighborhood eatery, a true husband and wife operation, the food is delicious and the service is great. It can get crowded especially on weekends, it a hole in the wall in the heart of Port Richmond and worth it.“

“The best Polish food in the Delaware Valley“

“This was the best Polish food I’ve had since my Babci’s from years ago. Everything was so fresh and authentic- super-friendly and helpful dude serving the orders to the bar as well. The golabki and kraut pierogis were my favs!! Must try! ?“

“Hi. very good Polish food big portions everything tastes Great.. I had potato pancakes with the Ukrainian Bush very good my aunt had Hungarian style potato pancakes very good our friend had the pork chops coleslaw potatoes very good they also had dessert and coffee everything was great highly recommend this place.“

“LOVE THIS PLACE! Definitely check it out!“

“This is such a great place. I highly recommend the cold cuts, which taste so much fresher and better than chain ones like Boars Head or Dietz (sorry, but it's true!). It's in Port Richmond so everywhere there's great kielbasa, but the "domowa" one here is IMO the best one in the area. Also really underrated desserts and chocolate, with always new stuff coming in to try. The family that owns this place is really hard-working (they're open everyday!) and always are super nice, so you get to support local business and pay better prices for better products.“
