Wanted a vegan Pierogi box and I didn't realize it had cheese as well. The entire dish was enjoyed accompanied family. Fairly good taste and freshly made. Will try next time to eliminate dairy and egg based mayo. read more

Loaded Pierogi - Vegetarian Bang Bang Cauliflower Pierogies - Specialty Food Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

This restaurant is located in the food court (same level as the TTC within Union Station. You can have your pierogies booked or fried. I went for the fried. Note that they have a rotating Deal of the Day option. I had the Double Double which was the DOTD. For $9.99, 5 good sized pierogies covered with lots of bacon, cheese, green onions and comes with sour cream. Seating is in the food court area (ie not designated ). read more

Loaded Pierogi - Double Double Pierogies (fried) - Specialty Food Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

This is quite the little gem here at Union Station. We were just looking for some food because it was getting late, we were getting hungry, and we had not eaten yet. We were not at all in an adventurous kind of mood where we go trying out raved food places. That turned out for the best because we got to try Loaded Pierogi out. I was first a little overwhelmed with the menu and how to order, but it got clearer later on. With all the different protein options available to pair with the variety of meal bases (pierogi, poutine, salad, etc.), there are countless combinations and reasons to come back. What we got to sample was the Bang Bang Cauliflower with a pierogi base and The Taj (some Indian style chicken bbq) with a poutine base. I love the fusion of all the different tastes and flavors and how it all comes perfectly prepared together in a dish. It was also worth noting that there are meals that go on daily specials. We got to try the Bang Bang Cauliflower at a lower than regular price during that Saturday evening when we dined there. The only bad part I can bring up is perhaps the long wait time. It was quite a wait after placing the order. There was a queue of people waiting to place orders, as well as customers who have already placed orders waiting to hear their number called. On the bright side, you can get some affirmation on which food concessionaires are deserving of your food money. Comparing between the different food vendors, one can see that Loaded Pierogi is that much more busy than the rest. Lastly, the whole pre-dining ordeal is made better with the fine service provided by the lady over the counter. She was very nice, patient, and helpful through the whole thing. read more

Stumbled upon this while browsing Union Station for something to eat. There were a lot of interesting options from pierogies to loaded wraps, so we thought we'd give this spot a try. First, was the Mushroom and Truffle with fried pierogies. Overall, it was decent. The pierogies were nicely fried and the taste of the mushrooms and white truffle oil certainly came through. Next was the Godzilla with poutine. While this poutine isn't as on par with other poutine options around, it definitely does the job. You'll get to enjoy the gravy and cheese on some seasoned fries along with that shredded pork and mayo. Oddly enough, I didn't find it too heavy. The amount of gravy isn't as heavy as you might typically find at other poutine spots. To some extent, I actually appreciated that. Overall, this is a good spot if you want to grab a quick meal if you're looking for something to eat while at Union Station. It's located in the food courts so there's plenty of tables and seating. There wasn't much of a line, but service was relatively quick being ready in about 15 minutes. read more

Loaded Pierogi - Mushroom and Truffle with Fried Pierogi and Godzilla with Poutine - Specialty Food Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

This was an interesting spot - in theory I liked the idea of a loaded pierogi bowl, but the individual components were just not great. I tried the buffalo chicken bowl - the chicken tasted like it was microwaved, the pierogis on their own were pretty bland, and the whole thing was basically masked by the sauce. The prices are reasonable but the food itself was pretty meh. I'd maybe try a different dish to see if I just ordered the wrong thing, but I certainly wouldn't come back for something of the same quality. read more

We got the baba's classic and we liked it a lot. The onions were nice and caramelized. The cheese on top also made it yummy. The staff was incredibly nice. They asked us how spicy we wanted the sauce we asked for and gave us the spiciest one. I want to come back and try the mushroom and truffle pierogi. read more

Loaded Pierogi - Baba's classic - Specialty Food Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I had heard good things about this place, so when the new food concourse opened up at Union Station, I gave it a try. Loaded Pierogi, in a nutshell, is the Smokes Poutine of pierogies. They serve pierogies with your choice of toppings. My choice (I forget the name, but it had different meats, including a chorizo sausage) set me back $17 tax-in (yeesh, I can get several bags of pierogies for $17). I tried the "classic", which meant half my pierogies were boiled and half were fried. First off, I'd recommend going with fried, as the boiled pierogies tasted no better than the ones you'd get in a grocery store's frozen aisle. The fried ones, however, were cooked well which made them stand out. Overall, while the toppings were good and the concept was interesting, I don't see myself going back. It's far too expensive considering I can walk across the pond to St. Lawrence Market for authentic pierogies at a fraction of the price. Plus, I found the meal to be a little overwhelming - pierogies are heavy enough, I don't think they need to be weighed down with a plethora of toppings. read more

I ordered the Bacon, Saurkraut and "Oh Yeah" Bacon deep fried pierogi during ritual $1 eatweeks. This loaded pierogi comes with "two types of crispy bacon, center cut & double smoked lardons with house made sauerkraut, caramelized onions, cheddar cheese, sour cream & green onions". This location is at the union station food court at one of the corners. Not difficult to find. Good that the food was waiting for me when I got there. For $14, this is a bit expensive and not something that I would frequently eat. The portion is alright because 8 pieces don't seem a lot but it's potato so it fills you up. I'm glad I picked deep fried rather than the boiled/steamed version, though I thought the deep fried ones would be more crispy. When I opened the box I almost thought they gave me non deep fried ones because it's not golden brown, it's quite pale. Definitely it's the choice of the toppings that make/break this dish. But with cheese and bacon and potato, you can't really go wrong. The saurkraut help to offset the heaviness of everything else. If it's cheaper, probably I'll eat more often. read more

I tried this spot while visiting Toronto with some girlfriends, and I am so glad that I did. I can't speak to all of the menu items, but I got the butter chicken pierogis, and they were divine. I opted to have the pierogis boiled, and I appreciated that they gave some sour cream on the side instead of adding it to the hot pierogis. The butter chicken wasn't authentic, but it was tasty. The pierogis were flavorful and a good portion. Overall, delicious choice. read more

In a desperate attempt to grab a quick bite before heading to the movies, I went to the Union Food Court and discovered Loaded Pierogi. I gravitated here because a) I wanted fast food that wasn't McD or Timmies and b) I loove pierogis. I ordered the Baba's Classic ($9 before tax) which were standard-fare pierogis with caramelized onions, cheddar cheese, sour cream and green onions. I did not find this very good. The pierogis were bland and lacking flavour. I asked for "crispy" pierogis but they turned out overcooked.. the shells were tough to eat. There weren't that many either so I was left feeling even more unsatisfied considering the price. The frozen Cheemo pierogis you find at the grocery store taste better than these, sadly. read more

Wild Mushroom & Truffle ($14) - had a delicious blend of different types of mushrooms, caramelized onions, herbs, goat cheese, and truffle. Half of them were boiled, and the other half were pan fried. The pan fried ones definitely tasted better, had a light golden crust. The boiled ones were obviously soggy and had a weird texture. The pierogis themselves tasted like any normal frozen ones you could've gotten from the grocery store, but the toppings (especially the truffle) did make this taste a little bit fancier than the ones people usually make at home. Not worth the price but it did taste good. Wouldn't come back again cause now I'll just make this exact same thing at home lol read more

Loaded Pierogi - Smokey Pig Roast, Loaded Deep Fried Cheesecake - Specialty Food Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Great food not worth the price. For 9-15$ you get 8 perogies with some toppings on top. The perogies are pretty good, but considering that you can make them yourself with minimal effort for $2 for the same size portion I just do not feel it's worth the price. Ambiance: It's in a food court so there is not much expectations. The other location that has a nice seating area, that you can done in and enjoy a beer. There the price is understandable (barely). This place does not have any of the benefits and the price is insane. read more

Tbh, resonating everything people have said about price vs. quantity. You get 6 pierogies for $10ish+. Expensive. I got the super cheese one and it was definitely "loaded" but I probably would not order from here again. It's just not worth it for 6 pieces of pierogies. I can grocery shop for $3-5 packs from Sobeys and be on my merry way. I do wish they fair okay because I know with the current situation many places are struggling and I was in the food court for 15 minutes and didn't see many people stopping at the fast food places. read more

3.5 /5 I haven't had a lot of pierogi but every chance I get I try it out. To my delight the new food court at Union Station had this place love the new food court by the way. First thing I saw was the daily special and it was smokey pull sausage omg sounded so good at first I didn't think the stuff was inside but it was done like a topping which was fine cus it looked and taste delish also you get a choice of fried or boiled and I tried both and I think I like fried better comes with sour cream I think it was pretty loaded so I enjoyed it. read more

Ordered a brussels sprout caesar salad and it tasted awful. Super plain with no flavour - all it consisted of was lettuce, caesar dressing, bacon bits, crouton, and brussel sprouts. Each ingredient tasted pretty bad, though. It's also quite small in portion. How exactly does this dish cost $11??? Not sure why anyone would buy it... I only got this because the restaurant is close to Union Station as I had to wait for my train (located in the York Concourse food court) and Ritual offered $5 off your first order. But I mean, it still costed me more than average even with a discount, and it was so not worth! Note: I asked for extra lemon in my instructions and definitely did not get it. Sigh. Would not come back or recommend. Just go to McDonald's instead. read more

This was my first visit to Loaded Pierogi and I did not expect the brilliant service I received. I have a restricted sodium diet and the server and chef both worked together to make me a meal I could eat without worrying. The chef even calculated the mg of sodium which has never happened before. I will definitely visit again. read more

Loaded Pierogi - Buffalo Chicken - Specialty Food Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I agree with the previous guy. All the perogies are standard - stuffed with potatoes. Do not expect meat or anything special nestled in the perogies themselves. Flavour just comes from the toppings which are just strewn on. I suppose I should have asked for clarification before ordering but naiively just assumed. Also a bit over priced for what you get. I ordered the smoke meat and it was barely perceptible against the also red pickled cabbage. I'd estimate a 1:3 ratio, all in takeout box for $16. Not terribly filling. Would give it 1 star but it has potential to improve. The perogies texture isn't bad (boiled are better than fried IMO), but it's stuff you can buy in the grocery store. They served it at the right temperature... If that can be called an achievement. Also, the prices aren't blatantly ripping you off, but you can just find better value elsewhere. read more

Ordered the Baba's Pierogi (pan fried), which was pretty decent in portion for the price. The toppings were mostly onions and a bit of cheese. The most disappointing part, however, was the sour cream they gave out as a side--it had gone bad and tasted bitter. I went back to inform the employee about it and noticed that there was an entire tray of unrefrigerated containers of unopened sour cream. I hope the Management takes note of this and make sure all items that require refrigeration be kept refrigerated. read more

I ordered the Porky Pig here and thought it was good. First time I've had pierogi.

Nasty. Plain potato pierogis that aren't any better than the cheap ones you buy frozen in the grocery store. I had the Buffalo Chicken with half boiled pirogies and half pan fried. They both rated under-cooked and the pan-fried were definitely not pan-fried. They had a slightly hard texture on the outside as if being left in a warm oven for awhile. The Buffalo sauce was more like a bbq sauce - sweet and smoked, which is not what one thinks of when you order Buffalo. For being the only thing they do, they don't do pierogis right. Classifying this restaurant as "Polish" is an insult to all the great pierogi-making people out there. Stick to buying really good, homemade pierogis and boil them / fry them at home for a fraction of the cost. My order with a chocolate milk was over $18. Way too expensive for what you get. read more
