Loved this place. There were four in our party, all loved the food. We were surprised to be greeted by the chef. She and our severer could not be any nicer. I should mention the gravy!! It was just like mom's!!!! read more

This was our first time here and this is how our visit shook out: What was great: - pierogi appetizer was good - loved the city chicken - friendly service Not as great: - brisket sandwich was bland; my husband wound up putting kapusta from my meal into the sandwich to give it some flavor read more

Czapski's Kitchen - Mexican Near Me - Milford, Michigan

An adorable, classy little restaurant combining Polish and Mexican cuisine. We visited with another couple on a Tuesday, before 4:00 so we would have plenty of time for bingo night in Commerce. With maybe two other tables the restaurant was near empty. Still, it took more than thirty minutes to make and serve a combination platter and two entrees. It's always disappointing to watch a group of people enter after you and eat half their meal before yours arrives. Thank goodness for great friends and conversation to pacify the situation. The food was very good and the server very professional. The decor was most inviting, a comfy throw back to old world. We will try again and hopefully gain a better result! 09/25 read more

What a gem. I've heard about this place up in Milford and I wanted to stop in to check out their menu. To say that I was impressed is an understatement. One of my favorite soups is dill pickle soup, and that is what they were serving today. Unfortunately, I did not get a photo because it disappeared too quickly. It was that good. Then, the owner, Lisa, came out and started sharing the story of the restaurant a little bit and she was amazing. I loved her passion and dedication to quality. I could tell right away that this will be a new spot for me. The stuffed cabbage was incredible and the mashed potatoes taste just like my mom used to make. Be sure to make a stop in to see for yourself. Wow. read more

Best Polish Food in the Milford Area. Actually I've eaten at several Polish Restaurants down state. This is the Best. Stop in, listen to Polish Music while you eat. Enjoy . Oh they even have takeout. read more

First time there; very cozy feeling--food was very good. Looking forward to dining there again soon!

Like going to Grandma's for lunch! Heck, grandma was my server and she rocked. The Polish Wedding (combo) plate arrived quickly and was tasty. The dining room is clean, well maintained and a flashback to 1980. Will I return? Yes. read more

Food was amazing! Stopped in for the first time and had a great dinner. We both ordered a sampler platter because we wanted to try a few things. Everything was so fresh, hot and so delicious. Can't wait to go back. read more

So unusual! Polish, American, and Mexican rolled into one restaurant. They had me with polish. It was worth the 30 minute easy ride through the back roads, such as they are in Michigan. But we had a nice, unfancy meal, in a homey family setting. Had to chuckle at the family with 3 or 4 little ones who kept knocking the teapots and cookie jars off the shelves behind them. Martha took great care of us, and the goulash was unbelievable! Homemade to say the least and there were no leftovers. read more

Czapski's Kitchen - Huge bowl of goulash! - Mexican Near Me - Milford, Michigan

Czapski's makes you feel excited and slaps a smile on your face like you've just arrived for dinner at Mom's or Grandma's. The friendly staff treated us like family when we stepped into the cozy, homelike decorated interior. The problems of the outside world disappeared instantly the minute I smelled the delicious aromas and saw the full, large, plates of hot food being set down in front of smiling, hungry guests. This "homey" experience is the real thing because I instantly felt nostalgic for the place, and it was my first visit! I was already thinking about my return visit, and hadn't even sat down. Plain and simple, Corporate America can NEVER duplicate the experience you're going to have at Czapski's because the owner is present and wearing an apron. My brother and I love Polish food and our minds were blown from the first bite. My brother had his palate all set for the smoked kielbasa, kraut, city chicken, and cabbage roll on the "Polish Wedding Plate." I ordered that Plate, and my selections were meatballs over egg noodles, cabbage roll, and city chicken. Both of our plates had mashed potatoes and gravy. We ordered a separate side of 4 pierogis to split. The food looked soooo appealing and delicious the second our attentive, friendly waitstaff member, Mackenzie, set down our plates. My brother was in love from his first bite and looked at me in disbelief because he was already tasting "5-Stars" from the first forkful. I was across the table having my own experience, thanking the angels for the talent in the kitchen and legacy of Lisa, the Polish-American owner's, authentic recipes and culinary prowess that created this entire "Czapski's Kitchen" experience that I was having. I think I blacked out because the last thing I remembered was reaching for the city chicken, and the next was seeing the remnant of a large wooden skewer that was picked clean. OMG, that was delicious and I need more! No worries. The plate was still full from the generous portions we were served. The remaining hot meal of the cabbage roll, mashed potatoes, meatballs over egg noodles, and pierogis was totally delicious, each with their own satisfying textures, seasoning, and flavors. The food is created using the highest of quality ingredients, and by the right people who truly care about their craft and customer. Every morsel was so satisfying and full of flavor for each offering on my combo plate. I know I am repeating myself here, but the food is that good. I took home a doggy bag of some uneaten pierogis and a fresh piece of the indulgent-looking, multi-layered carrot cake for the next day. Czapski's is a rare gem in the day and age of too many mediocre restaurants where corporate, central kitchens have dumbed-down Americans' palates and idea of what one can really experience when the bounty of America meets the talents of a caring owner and dedicated staff at Czapski's. I am already planning my many returns to "Czapski's Kitchen" with family and friends. read more

Just like my grandmothers food! Had the combo- kielbasa and kraut, meatballs and noodles and pierogis! So comforting! Great service, the bathroom is decorated just like my grandmothers bathroom! read more

Hello Babcia! I'm pretty sure my grandma has some of the same exact decor. I love that you walk in and it feels like a family kitchen and not a restaurant. They advertise Polish, American, and Mexican, but shouldn't. They have a small menu and most items are Polish. The others are perks. Food was great, except the ham and potatos were a little salty. And the green beans were bland. But that's ok because the pierogi were awesome, ham was still good, kraut was so good! My husband had the golumpki and said it was just as good as what my family makes. Service was good. The servers were sweet and took good care of us. They had live entertainment that made me smile. They have a full bar and gave Zywiec on tap! I can't wait to bring my dad here! read more

We used Czapski's to cater my mom's funeral luncheon. Lisa took care of me from first phone call through meal service. And with a funeral a lot is last minute and she nailed it! Besides the EXCELLENT food, her service was beyond phenomenal. I am looking forward to eating at her brick and mortar location which we already have plans to do!! read more

Every time we go here we fall in love all over again. It's like stepping into your grandmother's house (or at least my grandmother's house), complete with a curio cabinet and family pictures all over. Do yourself a favor - order the combo plate and get it with pierogis, guampky (stuffed cabbage rolls), and meatballs. It's delicious. I mean like "best Polish food you've had in forever" delicious. You should also plan to leave with food, the portions are very generous, and if you're like us, you always end up getting some guampky or pierogis to go! They also have Mexican food, which I'm sure is great, but I've never strayed from the Polish food and never intend to! I don't want to forget - the staff and owners are also awesome. A great place to enjoy a relaxing meal! read more

Chose this restaurant on a Wednesday evening. Kitschy cute decor with polka music, but not too loud. Were seated immediately and brought drinks quickly. My friend had a Polish lager, which she enjoyed and I had lemonade. I started with dill pickle soup, which was thick, creamy and absolutely delicious. I ordered the pork roast, which came with mashed potatoes, gravy, kraut, green beans and applesauce. My pork was so tender no knife was needed. Great seasoning on all the vegetables- I brought the kraut home for my husband because I don't eat it. Enormous slice of carrot cake to go, which was moist and not too sweet. The service was excellent, water refilled twice. Definitely will go back and try other menu offerings! read more

The REAL thing! I feel like I walked into a neighbor's home, welcomed, and well fed. The waitress and cook (who comes out to chat with diners) add greatly to the ambience, which is, well amazingly Polish. There is a collection of antique salt and pepper shakers which are deployed and in use at the tables. I feel like the chatchkeys are authentic family heirlooms. I tried the dinner sampler which was reasonably priced for what you get. The city chicken is pork disguised as chicken: a relic from the depression. The folks who own and work here love their food and this makes this a lovely experience. Desserts include nearly everything curated from the best of local bakeries. I cannot wait to taste the six-layer carrot cake I got to go. Be careful negotiating the city street to get here: you will not be disappointed. read more

Came in on a Sunday afternoon around 1pm. Not too packed, but I'm sure it was early for Sunday dinner. The team was lovely and welcomed me as soon as I hit the door. Walking in, the sound of bouncy music (not too loud, but enough to know it's there. Myron Floren from his album, "24 Polka's Greatest Hits") was playing in the background. Christmas decor was still up, but it kept the atmosphere light and refreshing with the winter chill. Wide selection of alcohol beverages, wine, and other spirits. They also have some beer by the can if you're interested in the cold case. I had ordered the following for a decent tasting: 1. Pierogi Polish Dinner 2. Meatball dinner. 3. And the combination plate with City Chicken, cabbage rolls, and kielbasa. 4. Beef brisket dinner. (All dinners included mash with gravy, veggie, kapusta, and bread with butter) 5. Dill Pickle soup (no chicken noodle today ) And for dessert: 1. Apple pie 2. Lava cake 3. 6 layer carrot cake. Placed my order at about 1:10. Desserts were prepped by 1:19, and the food was ready for pickup around 1:35. 16 minutes for all the above. Awesome timing. All the dinners came with mash and gravy. First off, I've met several a potato that NEEDED gravy because of lack of flavor. This one did not. The gravy is what I would consider ice cream to my slice of cake; a nice addition, but NOT necessary. Vegetable today was green beans. Not sure if they cycle different veg, but these were good. They were fresh Meatballs: tender, full of flavor, and moist. Homemade and you can tell. Noodles: your basic egg noodle, but NECESSARY with these meatballs to feel like Grandma cooked your meal. Pierogi: sautéed nicely, tender and filled with potato cheese. You can taste the butter they were cooked in. A+ with a little sour cream. City chicken: not a big fan, but the other folks I had at the tasting were very impressed. Browned nicely, tender, and spiced well. Cabbage rolls: my mother used to make them like this. A nice taste of home with some of the mash along side it. Beef Brisket: this went the fastest. Tender, pull-apart an a well cooked piece of meat. I enjoyed the...2 bites I got. Lol. Dill pickle soup: I've tasted DPS at several places: Pickles and Rye, a couple of other delis, even at the Wawel Polish restaurant in Sterling heights. Nothing stands up to this. Dill, creamy, warm, a soup you can either enjoy with crackers, or bathe in. Whatever pleases you. Lovely on a cold day. Apple pie and chocolate lava cake were decent, well worth the price. But the real winner was the carrot cake. Moist, cream cheese frosting in between each layer, and enough walnuts for you to know, someone took their time with this. My bill? $83. BUT, I ordered 4 dinners, soup, and three desserts. Well worth it if you want home cooked and do NOT want to do it yourAll in all, a lovely place to go for a nice Sunday dinner with family and some libations. Not to mention, any other day of the week. Watching the service crew attend to every table multiple times ensuring drinks kept flowing and food kept coming, I will definitely be coming back here again! read more

this place is a must......the best polish food in the world! even better than my old Hamtramck days.

I was in downtown milford with the two littles and this looked like a family friendly place to stop in for lunch. The parking lot was big and I didn't want to parallel park during the busy time where the farmers market was taking place. Unfortunately... the food was not good even with it's generous portions and fair pricing. Maybe because Thanksgiving just passed with savory food fresh on my mind, but their mashed potatoes lacked... that whipped buttery soul. The gravy tasted instant? The green beans were soggy. To be honest, the combination plate with one simple pierogi, one stuffed cabbage and a scoop of egg noodles with meat sauce felt like they were over-boiled in a crock pot ...over-waiting to be served. Our server was kind. She made some chocolate milk for the kids when it wasn't on the menu and she tried to help me keep them quite with some highlighters and lined paper. The service was fine but the food was not something I would come back for. I was very disappointed as this is a place that caters... and I was very displeased at the quality at this sit down to recommend it to others. read more

Czapski's Kitchen - Combination platter with stuffed cabbage, egg noodles with meatball, pierogi with mashed potatoes and sauerkraut - Mexican Near Me - Milford, Michigan

These days, good service is very hard to find. But that is not the case at Czapski's. My husband and I came in around 40 minutes before they closed, and the staff was extremely kind and welcoming. The food was incredible, and you could tell the chefs actually put effort into what they put on the plate. We highly recommend this place to everyone! read more

I was at this restaurant last Friday and truly felt awful for the people seated at a nearby table as I have never witnessed something handled so wrongly by the staff at a restaurant ever!!! One of the customers at the table was about 3/4 of the way through her meal and then found a dead fly in the sauce on her plate. She mentioned it to the server and the server offered to bring her a napkin. Not sure what the napkin was for... for the customer to take the fly out of her plate?? not sure... For obvious reasons, the customer with the dead fly in her plate, asked the server to take her plate away because of course that ruined her appetite to say the least. She asked the server to not charge her for her meal, which should've been a given! The server didn't respond and a few minutes later a woman (possibly an owner or someone from the kitchen staff?) went to her table and was almost in the customers face raising her voice where we (and everyone in the restaurant) could clearly hear her say " so you ate 3/4 of your meal and just because you found a dead fly on your plate you want it for free" and then the restaurant staff yelled across the restaurant to the server and said " OK, take her meal off their bill" and then she said still in a loud voice where the entire restaurant could hear..."and I have a very big flyswatter if anyone else find a fly on your plate... or something similar to that effect! I have never written a bad review nor have I felt the need to as restaurants and staff are doing their best and we have to have patience and understanding however , this was so above and beyond terrible of how a restaurant should ever treat a customer and I been sitting on this one all weekend and just felt that it had to be said. Unreal!!! read more

This is a must try!! I am Polish and grew up making many of the customary Polish dishes. Czapski's kills it! I've even ordered pierogis and city chicken for our family holiday gatherings and everyone has enjoyed. Dill pickle soup too is yummy! read more

I like the food a lot but I ordered take out and they said 20 min, arrived 25 min later and ended up waiting for 40 min when I got there. There was no good nature compensation for my wait and not only did I pre pay $85 I tipped 20% for takeout. Service is ridiculous. At least offer a free dessert or something . Just because you have good food there doesn't mean you should lack in service. read more

What a nice surprise! The dining area is very quaint, reminds you dinner at grandma's. The dill pickle soup was sooo good! Dinner was total comfort food and very very yummy! Desserts were out of this world. Will definitely be going back. read more

This is our first time here. The atmosphere is cozy with Knick knacks on the window sills just like grandma's house. The food was good, but other Polish restaurants we have been to were considerably better. The menu is a bit confusing (my opinion). I also felt the prices didn't reflect the quality of the meal. Sloppy joes and egg salad sandwiches were $12.95. A hot dog was $10.95. Our waitress was attentive, so no complaints there. All in all not a bad place to go as you do get a lot of food. The man playing the piano was fun to listen to while eating! read more

If you are looking for Polish food, this is your place. Really does look and smell like a Polish grandmas house. Staff are very nice. They promote themselves as Polish, Mexican, American food. That is a mistake. Stick with the Polish food. If you grew up with it, you will love it. If not, maybe you will like it? I tried the burritos. Way too salty and had a "stale" taste of reheated meat. It was covered in a generous layer of cheese, yet was very dry. The rice was bland and oddly not Mexican and the beans seemed scooped from a can. Overpriced and not very good. I do NOT recommend the Mexican portion of this menu. They do have other portions as sides or stand alone--so if you don't want the mashed potatoes, gravy, cabbage and/or green beans, you can get just a cabbage roll or just pierogi. They should give up trying to be all things, and just stick to the polish food. read more

Haven't tried the food yet, currently waiting, the food is mediocre. It's old people food. The service is fine young lady was nice. Husband counted 5 flies just sitting here. The ambiance is gross and needs updated bad. Could not even eat the place stinks and what's with the table clothes??? So unhygienic not to mention, how are you going to label yourself an American restaurant and not have cheese burgers? read more

I almost didn't visit Czapski's because of all the negative reviews. I'm soooooo glad I went with my gut and went to check it out myself! I can't say enough good things about the food and owner/staff there. I had a very lovely experience. I had the sausage that came with mash potatoes, gravy, green beans and sauerkraut. It was OUT OF THIS WORLD! I highly recommend this place. I applaud Lisa (owner) for taking the challenge to start a business in such hard location. I really pray they stick around because I can't wait to go back to try a different dish. Go here if you want comfort, FRESH, and a HOME COOK meal style outing. And STOP making assumptions like meatballs are frozen and salads are store bought. They f are NOT. ****Authentic and good quality!**** Help support your local business MILFS! read more

The food was very good and felt like homemade comfort food. The prices were reasonable. Unfortunately the owner had a Trump 2016 baseball cap on. In my opinion politics should not be part of your dining experience. Leave the hat for your family picnic. It was a turn off for my dining party. There is an outdoor seating area but it could use some tidying up. read more

First time here and it will not be the last. Staff was very friendly and food was great. We came in the late afternoon so it was not busy at all. They had a person playing polka music which added to the ambiance. This is a polish and mexican restaurant which I thought seemed like an odd combination but what we had was very good. We had the botana and Kielbasa plate which both were delicious. We will be back. read more

Like stepping back in time into Grandmas kitchen! Not many restaurants can serve up an honest home cooked meal these days... Czapski's does not disappoint. Delicious food always served by an attentive friendly staff. When you visit, make sure to build in some time to take in all the ambiance of the antiques and family mementos throughout the "kitchen". You'll also want to save room for some of the best carrot cake in town. Great food, great service and a fun place to break bread with friends and relatives. read more

Food and service are both great! The ambience is so fun and welcoming, definitely recommend if you're in the area.

Great food in a hometown atmosphere. Owner is engaged with her customers and is fun to chat with. Excellent city chicken, stuffed cabbage & pierogie read more

Had them cater a shower at my home recently. Communication was terrible. Every time I spoke to Lisa including meeting with her to go over the details, she could not remember what we had previously discussed, what and how much she quoted or even who we were. This went on for weeks. Based on past catering experience decided to go with her anyway. Food was okay not great. Hired a server, who was good. Lisa did not include a side item that was agreed upon. I reached out to Lisa letting her know we were disappointed. No response. Completely different from my experience with her back in 2019. read more

I ordered catering for my Father's Celebration of Life. Lisa made sure everything was completed on time and was delicious for our family to enjoy. Pixie was very accommodating when taking my order. I would order from Czapski's again and again because the quality of food and level of care provided were top notch. Thank you for making my time of grief a bit easier. read more

Not from the area and stopped by as we drove through. What a pleasant surprise! The place is cute, the food was excellent, and Lyric, our server was awesome. Super nice, super fast, and gave some great advice on what to order. We ordered the sampler (on Lyric's suggestion) and tried the city chicken (my fav), kielbasa, and stuffed cabbage. Came with potatoes and veggie and we ordered some pierogis. It filled us up without feeling overstuffed. BF (a carrot cake aficionado), said the carrot cake was the best he had ever had... THAT is a huge compliment! Treat yourself!! read more
