This is just like grandma made it. For some of us, literally.  Be warned – you will dream of these pierogies. Don't hesitate to try the dill pickle soup – sounds weird; tastes amazing. Not a ton of space, but it's a cozy/romantic ambiance; great for a date.  The price is right, but don't forget to bring cash. They don't take credit here.
