I’ve tried the pierogi, the breaded pork, among other things multiple times….the friendly owner always delivers. Cute, quaint, little restaurant I found out about because of the television program, Check, Please! Just like the panel of reviewers, I love this place. Check it out!

It was closed! Went for dinner at 6pm. On May 5 and it was closed, looked like not open for weeks? A neighbor of place was near by, so I asked about it. He said it's been closed for months! And their website says nothing about closure. We called too and had to leave VM. No return call... Very odd.

Delicious Polish food and friendly service. I got the Hungarian goulash stuffed pancake. The atmosphere was lovely. It was 20 degrees out and I felt like I was in an Alpine lodge!

My family of 8 (6adults/2children) went there for lunch today for the first time. The gentleman behind the counter started clearing a large table off for us. He did it haphazardly, and never finished. My husband completed it. There were dirty dishes on other tables as well. We waited for 20 minutes while he hung around the counter, looking at his phone and drinking something. When my daughter went up to ask him if we could order, he mumbled yes, but never gave her the menus. He just kept staring at her. She smelled alcohol on his breath. We all noticed that he was slurring his words and she saw that he was drinking a White Claw. He was unsteady and inebriated. We left immediately. So disappointed, as we had read great reviews and were eager to try the food. We won’t be going back.
