While it was a little on the pricier side, the fish was extremely tasty, and the pierogi's were as good as you can expect! Would recommend checking out, even if you don't have any polish blood in you, because these poles know how to cook!

No frills for sure,but that's ok.The fish was cod and very crispy (breaded,wish it was battered) and fries,coleslaw and rye bread,but also had a couple of pierogis to go along with it,being that we are Polish a definite plus.Great bar with Polish beer available too(Tyskie).All in all,not bad,little pricier($18), but we know it goes to support the Polish Center so that's ok.Definitely worth checking out.

Even after getting the contract and the pricing, multiple items changed and some of them on the day of the wedding. We were told, "Oh that price list is old." Or, "We added a bartender (without telling you) due to your number of guests," as our dinner was about to start. Just stick to your guns on the price list and get everything in writing, but if you're short on cash this is a good place.

I finally made it the measly seven or so blocks over to the UCC this weekend for their Latino Arts…read more"Noche de Gala" fundraiser, and after a lovely evening of string music, salsa dancing, cupcakes, sangria, and community, I couldn't help but wonder why (oh why) I've never made the trek the seven or so measly blocks before. For shame, RF! UCC = United Community Center = "... a comprehensive social service agency serving the families of Milwaukee's south side. Programs range from education to elder programs, meeting the needs of three year olds to 93 year olds and everyone in between." So what that means, exactly? Bruce-Guadalupe community school, Latino Arts Inc., Cafe el Sol, Walker Square Neighborhood Development Initiative, elder/youth programs and so much more. While all of these community-centric programs and pursuits are not just worthwhile (they're also necessary!), it really warms my goofy, cynical little heart to know that there are arts programs for children and young adults alive and well right down the street. Latino Arts puts on a number of shows and exhibitions throughout the year... so if you're an MKE culture vulture, you should definitely consider checking out their schedule! It's here: http://www.latinoartsinc.org/home.htm They bring in nationally-recognized acts; the music is stellar, and I really enjoyed the gallery/art on display this past weekend. Also of note? I'm pretty excited about the Dia de los Muertos/Ofrendas. Cultural, community goodness on the south side, y'all!

Mixed feelings abound for this community center, partially supported by my donations. They have an…read moreambivalent attitude towards the neighborhood, they allow neighborhood community meetings here, but their parents association is somewhat hostile to the neighborhood as they don't feel that the neighborhood is part of their community (most of the students don't live around here). Some of the parents are downright dangerous when they are dropping off or picking up their children, and collectively they bring traffic to a standstill for a half mile radius twice a day for over an hour. They are parking bullies, since they don't have adequate parking facilities, they "reserve" public spaces in front of the school for administrators, workers, and guests they consider "VIPs" adding to parking and congestion problems in the neighborhood. They didn't help with our neighborhood speed bumps (they really don't seem to take much interest in the safety of area pedestrians), or the playground we built and they use. They have an award winning music program, but they don't invite the neighborhood, they seem to purposely snub the residents right around the school. I'm a little suspicious because every child in this school is cute, without exception. What happens to the homely children? What have they done with them? On the other hand, they do a great job with the elderly people under their care, the Cafe del Sol is wonderful both for food and entertainment, the gym and health club are very affordable and well used by the neighborhood. The small art gallery is usually interesting, with rotating displays. A small number of interesting handicrafts are sold here too.
