This resto was a good experience. I attended a dinner with a large party and I thought the service was good, along with the food. I enjoyed the traditional Polish appetizers, the pierogi and the brochette. read more

There are usually several options and the meals are generally inexpensive. As it has been chilly, I've been craving soup. The lady taking the order thankfully speaks English so I didn't have to embarrass myself with my limited Polish knowledge, phew! She told me what she had for soup and I selected beef stroganoff. She asked if I wanted bread with it which I declined. I wanted to try their pork cutlet which I obliged to have with mashed potatoes. The soup, the pork dish and water amounted to less than $15 which is certainly less expensive than most cities in the US. The soup and dish were both delicious. Just couldn't give them 5 stars as I felt the pork would have been much better if it was hot and crunchy(it was just warm). The soup could have also been hotter. I think they don't wipe the tables as often as they should either. This milk bar is nicely decorated though. Considering it is very close to the city center, it is undoubtedly great value for money. Oh, btw, they have an English menu but I didn't see it until before I left

Joking aside, this place was really delicious and a nice change of pace from Polish cuisine. It's pretty different actually, with a level of spice that isn't explosive or anything but still can have significantly more heat than you're likely to find in the local food. Super gracious hosts and a great vegetarian selection too!
