Roberto BuaMarch 19, 2015Really authentic old school NYC diner. Their eggs on home made corned beef hash are great, as well as their pancakes. Leave room for a cream cheese and blueberry blintz.
It's 6 am and I'm literally dreaming about the fried pierogis I last had here a couple of days ago. The onions they're served with HAVE to be fried in crack, they're so addicting. Delicious!
Hands down my favorite counter in NYC. Get the combo plate with pierogi w/ fried onions, beets, stuffed cabbage, and kielbasa. Be sure to ask for some homemade bread!
What's Good HereFebruary 8, 2015First timer and can't decide? Get the combo. It is delicious. Stuffed Cabbage, Kielbasy, Fried Pierogi topped with Onions.
- What's Good HereFebruary 8, 2015Many entrees come with a choice of soup or vegetable. You can get veggies elsewhere. You must try the Ukrainian borscht - another delicious specialty.
Olex PonomarenkoSeptember 19, 2014Hungry? Get the combination plate. Get everything fried + white bread for a polish twist, everything boiled + black bread and "Kasha" aka Buckwheat for 100% Ukrainian.
David BanMay 30, 2013Old school, counter-seating-only Ukrainian joint. Go for the fried pierogi and the best Kasha in the EV, and always say yes to their onions; they make everything better.
One of the best and cheapest restaraunts in the East Village. Come here for your fill of Eastern European fare and deli classics like Pastrami
JR -May 31, 2014Hole-in-the-wall Ukrainian restaurant with a homey feel. Love love love the fried pierogies with onions, never liked pierogies till I had these!
Serious EatsMarch 24, 2013Classic Eastern European diner. High points: corned beef hash, pastrami, roast beef, breakfast. Low points: skippable burgers.
NickleshApril 3, 2013Vegetarian options include tasty pierogis and stuffed cabbage with mushroom gravy. Great gem of the East Village for comfort food.
DensSeptember 8, 2011Jeffrey from 'Wichcraft says: "Ukranian specialties are awesome (Fried pierogies with buttered onions, kielbasa, etc…) Try everything on the menu at least once"
DanAugust 16, 2014Best value in the east village. Borscht, omelets, pierogis, challah, it's all incredible. Don't miss it.
Tyler HawksSeptember 5, 2014Best counter in the east village. Also, it's tiny, and old school. When it's slow, it's quiet—and that's heavenly.
Genevieve L.February 17, 2014Pierogi all the way! Don't forget the sour cream. Fried onions on the side is best. Otherwise, too much onion going on.
CarolineFebruary 3, 2015Old school spot. Cram yourself into a counter seat. Egg on a rolls. Blintzes, stuffed cabbage, and any of the soups.
Emily L.October 5, 2014I really loved their food. Great mom and pop ambience, perfect borsch and perogies!
Jack GashiAugust 6, 2014Great little eastern euro bar-seating-only joint. The type of place where you order something, the guy says "how about meatloaf instead," and you say "Ok."
Michael BDecember 20, 2013Best perogies in NYC! Ask for potato and cheese, fried with onions and sour cream!
Leah ShenApril 9, 2013Genuine diner food! Perfect amount of picky old local men who've been coming here for decades and grease!
Hervey LamotheMay 24, 2014This place is begging to be tried for a great home style diner and tasty #easterneuropean dishes!
Real Cheap EatsJune 17, 2012Try the corned beef hash, "served with two eggs, toast and potatoes, an order costs barely over $5 and is packed with beefy flavor." Read more- What's Good HereFebruary 8, 2015If you have room for dessert, don't leave without trying the blintzes.
Try the Schaw soup! Really bright flavors and very soothing. When he asks, choose to get a hardboiled egg in it.
Roxana AnniukFebruary 7, 2012Best Borscht and Pierogies left in the East Village. Ukie National Home's Restaurant a close second.
Risa TekstenJuly 26, 2010The tomato soup with noodles is homemade and delicious! I've been getting it for over 15 years and it's always perfect. Get challah on the side.
Awesome dirt cheap ukrainian lunch counter. Order perogies or standard diner fare.
Favorite diner in the East Village. Stop for a quick and cheap bite!
Corned beef hash is homemade and the best I've ever had.
- mayoSeptember 11, 2010Grits are hard to find in NYC. It's a breakfast thing. Roman and Chester get this. Check them out.
Try every type of pierogi that they have!!!! SOOO delicious!!!
