The food is simple but really comforting. You can tell it's based on traditional recipes, everything tastes hearty and satisfying. The schnitzel and potato dishes were definitely highlights for me. Portions are generous and the service feels genuine and personal, which makes a big difference. It's not a fancy place, but that's exactly what makes it special. Definitely a spot I'd come back to when I'm craving something cozy and authentic.

Cafe Polonez is a really solid spot in Toronto for Polish food. I came with a few friends to try…read moresomething different, and it turned out to be a fun and very filling meal. The pierogi were the highlight for me. They're flatter than the dumplings I'm used to, and I was surprised by how potato-forward they were. We tried the potato and cheese as well as the potato and onion, and personally I thought the potato and onion had more flavor. We also tried the sausage and mushroom version, which was good too, but the potato fillings were definitely the more memorable ones. I would not recommend ordering 6 or 12 pierogi for one person unless you are very hungry, because it is a lot and you only get one flavor. The better choice is probably one of the larger combo plates, which gives you 3 pierogi plus a few classic sides and mains. The sampler-style plate was actually a great way to try more of the menu. It came with pierogi, hunter's stew, schnitzel, pickled vegetables, and condiments, and it was more than enough for one person. The hunter's stew had a strong sauerkraut flavor, and the schnitzel was thin, crispy, not too greasy, and very satisfying. We also ordered the cabbage rolls, which came in a big portion with tomato sauce. They were decent, but for me the filling was a little mild and the portion felt too large. We tried a Polish beer as well, though honestly I could not tell much of a difference. Overall, this is a family-run restaurant with a simple, homey atmosphere rather than a fancy one, but it is clearly popular for a reason. The food is hearty, comforting, and worth trying, especially if you want a casual place to explore Polish cuisine.

We visited Cafe Polonez with a big group (6 adults, 1 teen, 1 pre-teen) on a Friday evening and it…read morewas packed! The smallish restaurant was bustling and the ambience was cozy. Street parking was reasonably easy to find. We were seated way back in the restaurant and the seating was a little uncomfortable as our table was set up right next to the bar (but way too close to the bar, because our table was long) and other patrons had to constantly shimmy through a small gap between our table and the bar to get to the washrooms downstairs. Not great. We ordered a family style meals to share (combo for 2 and a combo for 4) and the amount of food that came out was probably enough to feed 10 very hungry adults. Definitely do not indulge on the bread basket that comes before the meal, because you will need to save room for the main event. The massive platters came loaded with pierogies, 2 different types of cabbage rolls (my favs!), schnitzels, and various condiments (?) of cooked beets, carrots, cabbages...etc. We were first served 1 different soups; white borscht and beet soup and both were tasty. The meat dumplings in the beet soup balanced out the sweetness of the broth and it worked well. I personally preferred the white borscht which was perfectly sour and a slightly over-powering sausage taste. The refreshing cucumber salad with dill in sour cream was a great accompaniment to somewhat heavy tasting meal. The hunters stew was a hearty bowl of tender morsels of meat, potato dumplings in a well balanced tomato based sauce. Although most of our food was great, we found the cabbage rolls (the traditional tomato version) and the schnitzels too dry. And along with the issue of having to deal with people constantly brushing by, I am taking away 2 stars. I may revisit Cafe Polonez if I'm back in the area, but not in a huge rush either.

Also I received 1 small tube of sour cream, certainly not enough for four potato pancakes since they'd give you the same for one. My friends appeared to enjoy their meals.

They looked very unassuming in a transparent plastic bag with a small, simple label (just the basic info like the name of the company and ingredients). but after trying the tortellini with mushrooms (a.k.a. uszka z grzybami) - a smaller size of traditional Polish pirogues - I am hooked and there is no way back to the supermarket kind for me now! I would like to thank Stephania and her talented team for providing such a delicious and high quality product on my table!!! as for pierogies themselves - it's not only the tasty filling (that is obviously made from real mushrooms, and nothing else but seasoning added) but also very good and thin dough (the mass produced piergies from grocery stores tend to have very thick and rather bland dough used, which spoils the overall effect). They are definitely worthy of their price ($6.99 for a 400g package) and a trip to the West End if you live in another part of Toronto. a truly high quality product that would deserve adjectives as "artisan" and "gourmet" placed on their package.

Stephania's Pierogies offers at least a dozen flavours - BOTH savoury and sweet! A bag of approx. 2 dozen pierogies is $6. The Polish lady who was working there was proud to say that they use real cheese, no jams are in the sweet dumplings, just crushed fruits. On my way out, another Polish customer was walking in, so that definitely added to the authenticity! Pierogies were really good! Much better than the run-of-the-mill pierogies available at your grocer's freezer. Starsky's carries these pierogies for $6.99, so it's slightly cheaper at the "outlet". Will stop by again and maybe try the sweet ones? They sort of freak me out tho.
