Imagine a magical land where the smell of pierogies wafts through the air like a warm hug from your…read morePolish grandmother. Now, stop imagining, because Krakus Polish Deli & Market in Boardman, Ohio, is that magical land, and it is the holy grail of pierogies, kielbasa, and all things Polish food-related. If you haven't been yet, your taste buds are straight-up missing out. First of all, let's talk pierogies, these little pockets of heaven are to die for. Like, not even exaggerating. I tried the classic cheese and potato ones, and I'm pretty sure I saw a light flash before my eyes. Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, these pierogies are so good they should be illegal. But wait--there's more! They do weekly pierogi specials, and trust me, each week is a new flavor adventure you won't want to miss. The cabbage roll; Heavenly. The sausages... Let me tell you, if there's a better kielbasa on the planet, I don't know it. The market is like a treasure chest of authentic Polish foods, we're talking everything my Polish grandfather used to keep stashed around the house, like sauerkraut pickle jars (which I'm 100% sure he got directly from the motherland), obscure teas, crunchy wafers, and probably some mysterious cured meats you didn't even know you needed in your life. And then there's the prices. I don't know how they're doing it, but you could feed an entire village of hungry Babcias (grandmas) on a budget here. Incredible value, folks. But--here's the catch--the hours are... um, "quirky." Like, if you're planning to roll up for a late-night pierogi binge, you might want to double-check their hours because they close early. It's kind of like they really want you to enjoy the pierogies, but on their schedule. So, don't be that guy who rolls in at 7:15 pm and finds the door locked. Trust me, I've been that guy. So, check the hours, make sure you're ready to dive headfirst into some of the best Polish food you'll ever eat, and prepare to have your mind--and stomach--blown. Krakus is like stepping into your Polish grandma's kitchen, if your grandma was a magical food wizard who had a secret stash of pierogies she didn't share with anyone. GO HERE. Seriously. If I could give this place 6 stars, I would.

I ordered the potato, cheese, and jalapeño pierogies, and they were amazing! The jalapeño gave them just the right amount of heat so you knew it was there, but it wasn't so spicy that it overpowered the other flavors. You order at the counter, and the ladies get right to work preparing your meal. I watched them drop the pierogies into boiling water, and once they were ready, they topped them with onions and melted butter. Simple, fresh, and absolutely perfect. I was hungry and ordered six pierogies, but these things are BIG! I could only manage three. That tells you something about their size, but not nearly enough about how good they are. I'm already looking forward to coming back for more. And if you knew me, you'd understand just how much of an endorsement that is coming from someone who isn't even a pierogi fan!

You can order combo platters with a variety of options which are a fairly affordable way to try several different items at once. Most include either pierogi or haluski and then add things such as sausage, stuffed cabbage and goulash. You can also order things a la carte including their 15 or so variety of pierogi! I love that you can order them prepared or frozen to take home by both the half dozen and dozen. And that you can order even the obscure flavors prepared. The staff is extremely friendly and great at what they do. They make ordering easy and will answer any questions that you have. And food is prepared efficiently and fairly quickly. The one downside is that it is take out only. But that shouldn't stop you from getting delicious food at this great spot. This is authentic Polish comfort food that just makes your stomach and heart full.

The young lady that took my order was so sweet. Within 10 minutes I had fresh made pierogis, sautéed with sweet onions. I chose three potato and cheddar and three loaded baked potato pierogis. They are on the large size, btw. My pierogi chef said that she wouldn't get them very crispy and I told her not to worry. I would have to say that I do wish they had been crispier, as they were definitely on the non-crispy side for sure. My favorite was definitely the loaded baked potato pierogis. The sautéed onions were a nice touch but I think they were a little on the overdone side as they turned slightly bitter as the naturally occurring sugars in the sweet onions get when overcooked. Overall, they were pretty enjoyable, as I was really hungry... and that, folks, is all she wrote.

Unfortunately the service is entirely too slow for a lunch and the food is decidedly underwhelming when you've had much better versions of the dishes over the years. Asking for other polish beverages or dishes was brushed off as an annoyance or that they didn't know. The staff was friendly yet cocky as if it's a bit they're playing but it runs dry.

Filled to the brim with potato and cheese. A bit oily, though. Good amount of onion on top without being overwhelming, and a solid price for the portion. Definitely delicious. And, all the items from the store were great too. The wafer was pretty basic for the price, but still good. Great apricot drink, super refreshing. And the kvas...I missed this a lot.
