I have been meaning to come to this restaurant based on the reviews and I finally had the…read moreopportunity to check it out with a friend. The place is a little hard to find as it is tucked away behind the Esso station in a strip of stores accessible by a driveway from northbound Dixie or eastbound Dundas. As it turned out, it is certainly worth the effort in finding this little gem. The decor is fairly spartan and nothing to write home about, but it's all about the food. They have a large hot table with freshly prepared Polish home-cooked dishes. A good selection of soups, salads are available in addition to schnitzels, meat balls, cabbage rolls, stews, pork hocks, bigos (sauerkraut with meat), stuffed chicken, perogies, buckwheat, and much more... This is just good, honest, home-cooked food that you would expect mom to make. Great value and highly recommended.

We had just crossed the border and came here for lunch based on the reviews. This place is located…read morein a strip mall and there were plenty of parking. The restaurant is small, but vast enough that you won't feel squashed. The "buffet" is situated to the side, with menu items framed behind it on mounted shelves and a mural painted next to the shelves. You tell them what you want and they scoop it for you. A TV plays in the very back and the drink cooler sits across from the buffet as well. We ordered the following: Cabbage rolls combo with buckwheat and cabbage on the side. It was basically stuffed cabbage. Hubs & daughter thought this was good, but it was no big deal. It was ok. Mushrooms and cabbage pierogi and cheese and potatoes pierogi - Overall these were good but we've had better. Hubs only had the mushrooms and cabbage pierogi and he said that he enjoyed this better than the entrees. Somehow, he didn't get to try the cheese and potatoes pierogi. Schnitzel with green beans and potato pancake- Daughter liked the schnitzel and thought that the sides were ok. Hubs thought the schnitzel and the potato pancakes could've used a little more crisp and that it should be fried a little bit longer. Taste wise was ok. The string beans were overcooked and reminded him of school cafeteria. He always wanted to try it but felt disappointed. Tripe soup - We over got to eat this while there, so Hubs had it a few days later. He said that this was pretty good. It was beefy and the tripe was nice and soft. This was one of the better tripes he's had in his lifetime. Daughter is diabetic and wanted diet soda but they didn't have any, so she ended up getting water. The restaurant was cute but it was cold. All the patrons were wearing coats. Place could use some heat. Service was friendly and quick, though. Glad we got to try it, though.

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.

I love the traditional sauerkraut series, but also the sour cherry and strawberry and blueberry look nice. Even the generic potato, cheese, and bacon pierogies which are common throughout Canada are taken to the next level by Stephania's. Good price and the women are always nice. Worth the stop, stock your freezer with a few bags and have European comfort food on your table in 15 minutes. I like to serve savoury ones with caramelised onion, bacon, and sour cream but good enough to enjoy plain or with butter. I serve sweet ones with powdered sugar and a sweet sour cream and cream cheese topping. I even bring these when I visit my grandmother in America and it's a nostalgic experience like she and her mother used to make. Cash Only!

The owner (I believe she is the owner) greeted us and told us we could sit anywhere. She brought us water and menus. My sister and I ordered 2 cabbage rolls, Potato and Cheese Pierogies, Meat Pierogies with bacon and onions to share. For my son, we tried ordering the schnitzel sandwich, but was told that was unavailable. My son doesn't eat mashed potatoes so I asked if I could just order him a schnitzel and she said yes. The food came out in about 15 minutes. The cabbage rolls were fantastic, the perfect amount of acidity in the sauce. I really don't like tomatoes or cabbage, but there is something special about the cabbage rolls. I ate very bit of mine. The pierogies were wonderful. I usually prefer just potato and cheese, but honestly between those and the meat, I couldn't decide which I liked more. Both were flavorful especially with the sauteed onions and sour cream. My son's schnitzel was huge! He could only eat about half of it and when my son asked for ketchup (much to my dismay) the owner was very nice about it and commented that's the way her daughter likes it too. Honestly the food was absolutely wonderful and the service was great. It was very similar to what I had in Poland. If this restaurant was closer to my home I would visit often. We had no issue with parking. We were able to get a spot on the street right in front of the restaurant. Parking was also not too expensive since you aren't in the downtown area. If you are in the area and want a wonderful meal, be sure to visit.

I thought it wasn't going to be very busy since this seems like more of an off time, but to my surprise it was packed. I put my name down, and only had to wait around 15 minutes to be seated. Usually when coming here, I'd get the platter for 1 or 2, but this time I just came for a light bite and got the 10 pierogies (5 cottage cheese, 5 meat ones) and a chicken noodle soup to share. The dishes as always, tasted super fresh. The pierogies were very large, soft, and flavourful, no complaints whatsoever and the soup tasted something like my mother & grandmother would make. Service was also pretty quick! Definitely will be back to explore more of the menu :)

I loved the mushroom cream sauce that came with it. Plenty of mushrooms inside the roll as well. Also got two types of pierogies: cheddar and potato, and meat. Unfortunately they forgot to pack the sour cream so I couldn't experience the full experience. I dipped it into the cabbage roll mushroom sauce and it was still ok. The cheddar and potato was good but the meat one was dry.

Bar 4 U has been on my bookmarks for quite some time. I've been meaning to visit for a while, but the last time was on a Friday night and my companion was intimidated 'cause she didn't see any visible minorities inside, so we left. To me though, this is a GOOD sign as I usually judge a place by their patrons. So if a Polish sports bar is only filled with Polish people, that means the food is pretty authentic! On the other hand, a Chinese restaurant filled with Caucasian people = no bueno. :) During my visit, atmosphere and service were slightly - just slightly - better than the food. Even though 3 salads accompanied dishes, 2 of them had bottled Italian dressing so they tasted pretty much the same to me. Some of the lettuce and the lime wedge that came with the water were browning on the edges. So prepped beforehand, not super duper fresh. Pierogies were better than the kopytka (pieces of potato "dumplings"). Prior to ordering the Kopytka with the Goulash, we asked if it was the same goulash on menu, e.g. beef. The waitress confirmed it, but goulash was definitely pork. Food was more homestyle, so not doused in salt. Food was solid, portions were fairly big, but I've had better Polish food elsewhere. I wouldn't be opposed to going back though to try other items on menu! Tip: They have 2 large screen tvs, playing 2 different types of sports. So perhaps it would be a good place to see a match!
