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

Stuffed cabbage and mashed potatoes

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.

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.

Huge bowl of goulash!

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.

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!

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!

Each table had unique salt and pepper shakers and some other nice piece

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.

The grand masterpiece 6-layer Carrot Cake

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!

I am forever changed by the elote fries. Seriously life changing!! We only got a few small bites…read morejust to try this place for the first time and I completely regret not getting more! I'll definitely be back soon. The firecracker chicken taco was really good, not too spicy and really good flavor! I wish I tried this place sooner! They definitely deserve all of the good reviews they're getting!

This restaurant offers a unique and tasty twist to your typical Mexican street style taco. I…read moreordered their Carne Asada (steak) taco which was well made and definately in line with an authentic Mexico Street taco but the star of my meal was the Mongolian Beef taco with its marinated sauce, scallions and cilantro that was over the top good and so different from any other taco's I have ever had. The chips, salsa and guacamole I ordered were good but not to the level of the Mongolian taco. Relative to the restaurant itself, it is kind of tucked away on the side of a small strip mall and not readily visible from the road. You need to be purposely looking for this restaurant to see it , which based on all the good reviews, a lot of people apparently do which means its business is being generated by word of mouth. Nice! Also of note, this is a counter order take out business model with no indoor seating and just two small tables on the sidewalk in front of the restaurant (4 total chairs). Something to keep in mind if you are looking for an indoor dining option. Overall, I believe the more traditional Mexican food options are good at this restaurant but it is the unique/fusion options that make this business stand out from other Mexican restaurants in the area. These unique food twists will be the primary driver of my return visit, which I will definately be doing, to sample some of their other fusion options that they offer. Definately a restaurant to seek out and sample if you are in the Milford area.

Had my first bad experience here. Ordered the Quesabirra combo which is under the "Quesadilla"…read moresection of their menu. They then brought me the tacos. I asked what was up and the lady came over to explain I was incorrect and "Quesa" just means it has cheese on it and they actually did bring me the right order. She said if I spoke Spanish or if we were in Mexico it would make sense. I've probably ordered thousands of quesadillas for me and my kids in my years. Another lady came out and said let's just remake it but by then I was so completely proven wrong since I don't speak Spanish that I just kept the order. I didn't want to waste the food either. Pro Tip: If you want to order the quesadilla version you have to say "Barrira quesadillas" because ordering it under the quesadillas section will just get you tacos. "Barrira quesadillas" also wasn't listed on the menu but they make it. Maybe last couple times they asked what version I wanted... or it was on a specials board...idk. I suggested they move the combo under the taco section but I guess that wont make sense in Spanish since none of their taco have cheese but combo does?? This place is definitely a 5 star restaurant when the owner is there. This was the first time there when he wasnt.

I swung in, had two tacos, and like that.... I was gone…read more Corn tortillas were excellent and held together well. Hot sauce was complementary to my food. I had a chicken and fried pork. The pork was good, the chicken was a real treat though. Often, chicken can be bland, but this bad boy was quite flavorful.

Definitely the most authentic mexican food around! It's very flavorful and super reasonably priced…read more I only knocked one star because the flavor of the marg was a little lackluster and I wish they had some sauces (not just hot sauce) to put on the tacos. Service and atmosphere were a 5/5. I definitely will be coming back!

We came here for the first time on Memorial Day. As we had just come back from a vacation in…read moreMexico, we were craving some Mexican food so we decided to try here. It has a very simple but inviting atmosphere. The food smells good right as you walk in. It's very welcoming. We were greeted fairly quickly by our waiter who asked us if we wanted drinks I went with a rainbow margarita as that looked interesting. The drinks took probably 5 to 8 minutes. They brought out the chips and salsa pretty quick. The drinks came out. The margarita was ok for me. There were too many flavors that just didn't seem to go together. I would've preferred a standard margarita. It was ok not bad, but I wouldn't order it again. We placed our order for food. I went with the combination, dinner number 13, taco burrito and Chalupa. And we got a side of rice and beans. My wife ordered the vegetable fajita although the waiter told us ahead of time that the food was going to take a while as they were busy. It seemed like it came out in 5-8 minutes. It was fast. Chips and salsa are always good so those were fine. They gave us a couple of different salsa options which were good. For my food. The beef taco was really good. That was probably my favorite part of the meal. The burrito was chicken and was pretty good. Chalupa was not what I thought it was going to be basically it's a thin tortilla with a bunch of toppings piled on top of it that you just basically eat off of it with a fork. You can't pick it up and hold it as it's too heavy and the tortilla sits in sauce and other sides that then make it fall apart. My wife said her vegetable fajita was pretty good as well. The beans and rice were very average, not much flavor. Overall, the meal was decent nothing great nothing terrible just good. We may come back sometime as it is a nice place, the ambience is nice and the staff was great. But the food was nothing special aside from the beef taco that was delicious.

Sweetest staff with amazing service. Server was very kind and constantly checked in on us. 4 birria…read moretacos for only $14???

This business makes some seriously good and authentic Mexican street taco's. My carne Asada…read more(Steak) and Al Pastor (pork) taco's were well made and ohhh sooo tasty. From the doubled up corn tortillas, to the tender well cooked meat, cilantro and their wonderful sautéed onions these Street style Taco's are as authentic as anything you would get in Mexico. The gratis house chips and Salsa were equally tasty and a nice complement to the Taco's all being washed down with a sugar cane based Mexican coke. The total bill came in at a very reasonable cost of $12 which is a great value in today's economy and a great deal by any standard. Relative to staff and facility, this appears to be a small family run business where the restaurant itself is located in a small strip mall at the corner of Franklin and Square Lake Rd with an equally small footprint for the restaurant. This is a very unpretentious business (think hole in a wall but in a nice way) with a limited number of dining tables and small staff. Having said that, I had no problem in getting seated and getting my order taken and food brought out in fairly quick order! I have been on a kick for a while now trying to find the best taco joint in the the northern Oakland county area and have to say this is as good as I have come across up to now and am a big fan of this business. If you are into well made authentic Mexican street taco's than this is a must visit for you. This was my first visit here and definately will not be my last where I will be combining this dining venue with my regular Bloomfield Hills Costco trips which is a Quarter mile from the restaurant.
