“I always thought this place was a hole in the wall with no depth. Bartender - Kasia - made the night. Service level was a 10 and the food coming out of the kitchen was also very solid. Good crowd too. I feel like the crowd follows the bartender.”
“Great place for a quick drink, and Great local polish food.”
“Nice staff, dive bar feel (complimentary), good greasy homey food and they were very helpful navigating my allergies”
“Can we talk about the pierogi? Why i didnt find those mushroom and kraut before now is beyond me! DELISH! Jamie serving up those snapple apples- boom! 💥 hidden gem on the southside- cant wait to check out a night with some live music! Will be back!”
“Super good pierogies and potato pancakes. Also a bonus points for the ladies room looking like your old polish granny’s bathroom from the 1970s.”
