All the food we had was beautifully presented and tasted like it was made with care and attention like homecooking. We had meat pierogi which was delicious and packed with pepper and beef tartar which was elegant and flavourful to start. For mains it was mushroom soup and pork cutlet which was huge so I wish I had skipped the starter as I could not finish this which was a shame. Highly recommend, rare 5 star

The food is amazing, from the fantastic pierogi's, excellent bigos and sublime roast venison in forest mushroom sauce. This is also authentic Polish fare, in a traditional Polish setting . The wait staff is pleasant and efficient. I go there every time I am in Warszawa (Warsaw)

Absolutely loved the food here!…read more My husband and I found this place on Yelp, and it was a short walk from our hotel so we tried it out and were not disappointed. The interior was warm and charming, and the menu was extensive. I had the spinach and goat cheese pierogis, with a bowl of borscht and my goodness, was my meal delicious! My husband had the sirloin steak and raved about it. Service was excellent and courteous. Although the prices might seem a little high, with the exchange rate what it was during our visit, we really couldn't complain. This was a great choice for good, solid Polish food in a welcoming environment.

Our colleagues, translator and guide, was from Poland, but no Warsaw. So we happen upon Zapiecek, and we're not disappointed. It was an almost 11pm when we decided it was time to find some food on this work trip and first time to Poland. So I wanted something of local taste. So my colleague suggested the pierogi. Now forgive me for not remembering the fillings, or the sauce, but the memories of just enjoying the flavors is still with me that I tried to find similar taste here in the States and have not found a place yet. From what I remember the staff were friendly and the setting was quiet and comfortable. So I do have fond memories of dining at Zapiecek, and would go again. So enjoy...

First time having authentic fried pierogis - wow! I highly recommend ordering the 9 piece assortment of pierogis or dumplings. I enjoyed their version of beef stew (great for dipping the side of bread!). Affordable prices, very friendly and fast service. I loved the house red wine, it paired great with our meal. Walking distance to many popular and fun bars, lounges, restaurants, and more. A gem that we stumbled upon - highly recommend if you are in Warsaw!

The vibes outside drew me into this cute corner spot directly across from the apartment I rented in the oh so adorable Old Town where cars aren't allowed to enter the cobblestone streets. There were tons of mums and lanterns with candles in fall. It looked exactly like the kind of place I wanted to cozy up even though I had dinner elsewhere, so dessert it was. I chose a little two top in the room with the bar and piano. It was candlelit and I had a great view of large parties, even a super large group dinning and laughing in the other room. Although there were a few enticing desserts, I asked my kind partly English speaking waitress her recommendation for something authentic and she suggested this dessert. I don't know the name but it was a cannoli type shell filled with pistachio cream and vodka over delicate chocolate pettifores that were TO. DIE. FOR. The balance of the salt from the nuts and the sweet chocolate was utter perfection! Gooseberries to boot! Yasssss! I also ordered a bottle of fancy sparkling water, because just like mostly anywhere in Europe, Water is not free, and at least this way I was able to take it with me. I would absolutely hit up this spot for a meal when I return. It made me wish I had eaten here although I lived my meal that night!

This place is charming, cozy, and clearly a must-visit -- it was very busy with people waiting outside, which only confirmed how loved it is. I ordered the traditional pierogies (without meat), and they were absolutely delicious -- tender, comforting, and full of flavor. The cranberry sauce and mushroom sauce on the side were perfect pairings and really elevated the dish, adding a sweet and earthy balance to each bite. It felt like the kind of spot you seek out when traveling -- authentic, warm, and deeply satisfying. If you're a foodie or a visitor wanting to experience real Polish comfort food while in Warsaw, this is definitely a place you shouldn't miss. I'd happily return and highly recommend it!
