    Pork Pork Cutlet - German Style Schnitzel
    Nick N.

    Food was amazing! Half the town was shut down for the weather, but this gem was open. What a perfect meal for taking a ski break. I left warm and full for the rest of the day at the hill.

    This place is great! Atmosphere is a normal restaurant. Clean, nothing fancy. But the food! Best Polish food I have had. Everything is well prepared and delicious. Best to call ahead since it tends to be busy in its limited hours. It's only open for lunch sadly, but the owner has kids and trouble getting a babysitter. The service is friendly enough, but this place is all about the food. Potato pancakes are so fire! Pierogi sampler is absolutely awesome. Never had a bad meal here.

    Kielbasa to die for!

    As authentic as it gets! Delicious kielbasa & pirogies. Also had potato pancakes (amazing!) Samples everything!

    Husband and wife team providing Polish cuisine. Portions are large and very flavorful. Staff is super friendly and helpful. We both enjoyed our meal and will definitely be back.

    Pierogi

    I had a rough visit at the dentist nearby and was wanting to grab some food before heading home. I've always loved pierogis, so to find this shop so close was a delight! I was able to find the menu easily online, and when I walked in I found a few tables with older folks sitting inside. The shelves were decorated with the old olive and pepper jars from the 90s but gave an interesting European vibe to the place. I went to the front counter where the young man told me I could take a seat with a menu if needed but to order at the counter when ready. I ordered six potato cheddar pierogis with hot sauce and a drink, got the drink from the fountain and waited maybe a few minutes top for my food to arrive. These were so soft and tender with such a smooth filling, but still had a really nice crisp. A butter onion and bacon sauce adorned the top, a delightful mix with the Chalula provided to me. Upon leaving, I let the guy know that I could never go back to the frozen Mrs. Ts variety after trying theirs, and he laughed and said that's how they stay in business! When I let him know I wasn't local, he informed me that they sell them by the dozen in a variety of flavors. Naturally, I took two dozen home and they survived the car ride an hour and a half back north! Couldn't have been happier with this experience and I can't wait to go back to the dentist solely so I can stop here again. Great service, phenomenal food, and pre-pandemic pricing. Absolutely zero complaints!

    Food was great! Only in area for the week and didn't have great experiences with food in the area. This place absolutely redeemed Petoskey! Wish I would have fond this place earlier in week. I do wish they had later hours. Regardless...best food of the trip! Thank you Polish Kitchen.

    Homemade chicken soup

    Had the homemade chicken soup and meat goulash with mashed potatoes - DELICIOUS! Endless bread and butter. Attentive, friendly service, food like mom used to make...a rare find these days. Clean and inviting dining room....highly highly recommend!

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to visit until near the end of the day and at that point they had sold out of most of their items, including the famous pepper parmesan rolls. They still had a few items left and we decided to pick up two of them. Kouign Amann ($4.95) - The caramelization of the sugar on this pastry is on point. The bottom has a layer of sugar that has melted into a glaze with extreme caramelization, almost on the verge of being burnt. If it had been left in the oven for a few moments more, it would probably have started to develop an acrid taste. Luckily, it was pulled out at just the right time. Even the sides of this pastry have been graced with sweetness and a top layer of thicker sugar crystals/grains adds an amazing crunch. While the kouign amann may not have as many thin laminated layers as a croissant, there is still an excellent buttery interior which helps balance the outside sweetness. The interior is fluffy and layered well into an even honey comb pattern. This kouign amann exceeded my expectations. (5/5) 3:00 O'clock Baguette ($5.90) - Yikes, this is by far the most expensive baguette I've ever bought. I was kind of dreading it when I first felt the baguette through the bag - it seemed a bit soft and limpy. When I tore into it soon afterwards, I found my concerns to be somewhat unfounded. By somewhat I mean that yes, there is hardly a crust on the baguette, but the interior still exhibits a nice chew and the flavor is very well developed. It's a decent baguette, but nothing outstanding. Perhaps the crust would be better earlier in the day when fresh baked? (4/5) I was definitely surprised by the quality of the baked goods at Crooked Tree Breadworks. I'll have to revisit earlier in the day on my next visit to the area so I can try more of their breads and pastries.

Diners place their orders at the counter where the friendly staff hands out drink cups, dishes up cups or bowls of soup or fruit, cookies or brownies and slices of quiche. They deliver the remainder of the food to your table. I ordered a grilled sandwich on cherry pecan bread and filled with white cheddar and bacon. It came with a small bag of plain potato chips and a quarter slice of pickle. Along with a fountain soda, the total rang up to $16+. While tasty, the sandwich seemed small and nothing spectacular. I hoped they might have slipped in a juicy slice of tomato (Julienne Tomato after all). My friend ordered quiche, a cup of fresh fruit and a double-chocolate brownie along with her drink. She said it was "good."
