The young lady recommended the cherry kielbasa and my only regret is I did not buy more. Wife and I ate up a full link in an afternoon just snacking! If you have had regular grocery store bought polish sausage... forget it!! Go here and try, you'll never buy kielbasa at a regular store again!! It's an hour drive for an old man... but I will make it up there as often as I am able. P.S. The stuffed cabbage is to DIE for! I just heated it up with a can of tomato sauce and BAM!! Memories of grandma and the family came flooding back!

The meatball sub was delicious with plenty of meatballs and extra sauce on the side. We also tried an Italian sub which was flavorful and fresh.

The owner explained that his brother was in the military and that they decided not to offer any discounts, including military discounts, because they want to be fair to everyone. Very philosophical. Everyone fights for our country in their own way, I suppose, including when choosing pasta. The staff and owner joked with us a few times while we were there, and we want to share in the laughter. A kind thank you for your service is free and always truly appreciated especially for those who have sacrificed something more than just their time in the service.

I've heard of this place and when in the area recently, I bought many Pastys to bring home and…read moreenjoy later on. The place is really just carry-out, they have fresh made, hot pastys to go, which they can sell, as well as frozen pastys to bring home. They also have a large selection of snacks directly from England. Service was helpful, the guy working the counter was descriptive and helped me with how the various pastys were made. Also, when walking in the amazing smells of all the workers in the back making food smelled incredible! I opted for some of nearly all their offerings of pastys. A couple of days later I made the chicken masala for lunch. I used their directions for baking, not the microwaving to get it ready to eat. They were spot on and the pasty came our perfectly warmed up and ready to eat. The crust was outstanding! None of it was dry or tastless, the whole thing was flaky, perfect, buttery, and tasty! The filling was very nice, though it had no flavors that resembled Indian or "masala" to me, so I'm not sure what they consider masala, but that's not a bad thing as the filling tasted great! I'm looking forward to making and eating all the rest, I'm sure they'll be great too!

I love British food. With that said, I was super underwhelmed by their pasties. I ordered the beef,…read morechicken masala, lamb, chicken cordon bleu and sausage rolls. Beef: normally this would be my favorite back in the day but here... Absolutely no flavor. Quite surprised but I would not order again. Chicken Masala: decent flavor, probably my favorite out of all the oasties I got here. Moroccan lamb: decent flavor also. Chicken cordon bleu: not sure If I got a bad one but yea, hard pass. Sausage rolls: decent flavor. Price point is ok as the oasties were quite filled. It's just that a lot of them just didn't have that taste that I gotta come back for more taste. It was just.... Eh.

The service here is truly wonderful, always friendly, patient, and happy to offer recommendations. Everything I've tried is excellent, from the pierogies to the borscht, but you simply must try their sausage. Whether you get it to take home or on one of their fantastic sandwiches, the quality and flavor of their house-made sausage is out of this world. It's savory, perfectly spiced, and the highlight of any visit. If you are looking for real, hearty comfort food and a fantastic, old-school deli experience, Polka Deli is the place! Highly, highly recommend.

A lot of these foods are really familiar, and the selection is just so far and wide. I especially love how everything here is true to the ingredients and the pure authenticity of what the food is. Everyone we saw were delighted to greet the folks behind the counter cutting cold cuts, or just to show the sheer amount of pierogi they were stocking up on. At the counter, we ordered from their menu which had a very delicious borsht. It came pipping hot with some dill, and the veggies were nice and cooked down. The sampler is a must try if you want to get a good sense of the foods they offer, really enjoyed the varity of kielbasa and the hot mustard it comes with to dip. Gołąbki was generously filled and pan fried served with stove top potatos. A lot of their pastries are either imported or made in house, and it came in a good variety like poppyseed flavor. We enjoyed the food in their eating nook and enjoyed the really peaceful views of the strip mall. Really here for the homey vibes, something for just about anyone who is missing these nostalgic flavors. Thank you for the wonderful meal!

Not too many fruits and vegetables when I went but it had just opened, so I'm hopeful.

They have everything from organic flour, rice, spices, oils to shampoo and conditioner, etc. There are glass jars you can also buy in the store. They do have some gifts and other natural products. You can be a Loyalty member if your purchase total $25+, after $250, you get an amount off. The employees are very helpful and kind. I really love the concept and it was great to support this locally woman owned business.

They have a variety of things, food, drinks, sushi, snacks, cosmetics, toys. There were also SO many small toy vending machines. It was very cool to see so many options. There was also a cafe and restaurant in the back. The cafe was popping and the line was long for their matcha. The restaurant was actually such a LET DOWN. I was expecting authentic Japanese food, but the portions were small and the meals were pricer $15+ and not that special. Beef udon: regular and I could've made it at home Beef rice bowl: their top pick, the beef was not tender, and it was dry. Really simple but not good. Oddly enough, they had the tiniest water cup that you can pour for yourself. It was like 2 gulps. I also tried some drinks. They have an assortment of Moshi brand drinks in a can. They are expensive, but so so good. The strawberry matcha was my FAV. We also tried their milk coffee in a can, it tastes like what you'd expect from coffee in a can.

There's a whole refrigerated area for ready-to-eat food like onigiri and katsu, along with a bakery, cafe, and a small food court area. My friend and I stopped by for lunch earlier this week. The markup is kind of crazy for cafeteria food, but he was really missing Japanese food from his recent travels. There's a variety to order from, and the food was served quickly after ordering. UNI IKURA RICE BOWL - 29.99 This was one of the current specials, and I love uni so I couldn't resist. There wasn't a whole lot of uni or ikura (half of the bowl was more so decoration items like sprouts, ginger, a whole leaf, and wasabi) with lots of rice underneath. The rice was the perfect texture, and after seasoning it a bit with some soy sauce, it was just right. The uni wasn't the most fresh, but the ikura was decent. Overall, good, but just not worth the price for what you get. My friend got a tonkatsu curry rice, a croquette appetizer, and a slice of cream roll cake for $5 less than how much I spent on my single uni ikura rice bowl. The tonkatsu curry rice was quite good, and only $14.98, which is really good for today's economy. If I'm ever back for the food, I'll definitely get the tonkatsu.
