Loaded Pierogi — Restaurant in Hamilton

Loaded Pierogi is a cozy little industial styled nook (5 two person tables, 8/9 bar stools around an L shaped bar and 1 eight person long table, which you could probably fit 9/10 people at considering one side is a full bench) with great food and wonderfully kind staff. When my father wasn't sure on which craft beer to order the waitess offered to give him samplers. A very nice gesture that definitely doesn't happen at all places. The wait staff was overall very attentive and social.

All pierogis are stuffed with potatos and onions and the meal you choose to order is basically the toppings that you'll have on top. I ordered "The Catch" which included Atlantic Lobster and Crab dressed with Sweet Julienne Peppers, Camelized onions, Green onions, Hollandaise sauce and Sourcream. Whereas, My father opted for the Roast Chicken and Avacado Club which includes, Roast Chicken and Avacado obviously 😂 with Bacon, Cherry Tomatos, Cheddar cheese, Creamy Ranch Dressing, Green Onions and Sourcream. No matter how extra you are in your own kitchen, you have definitely never had pierogis done this way before. Both tasted absolutely wonderful.

Now, each plate comes with 8 pierogis ANNNNNND I can see your faces now, only 8!? Well yes, and if you've eaten properly throughout the entire day this definitely will be enough to make you full. When you get your plates there are so many toppings that you can't even see the pierogis themselves and then with them being stuffed with potatos it definitely does a number on you. But, I can see if you've haven't eaten anything all day or only snacked, how it might be a smaller portion then you would have chose for yourself. I have a solution for that my friends, and here it comes... Order more than one delicious plate! or just go to damn buffet. For me atleast, I think this restaurant is more about having a new experience with food when trying something you've had before but never in this sort of way. If you want to gorge yourself, maybe this is not the right place for you that day.

Pierogis can be done two ways. Boiled or Crispy. But if you're curious you can order half and half which is what I did. The boiled pierogis were everything my childhood self wanted AND MORE, and the crispy pierogis were heavenly, with a panzerotti type crust that you never would have thought would work but does. If you can't tell already, I love pierogis 😂😜.

My dish cost $14 or 14.50 and my dads was geneally around the same price maybe give or take a dollar more. Beer was $6 and Ice Tea was $3. The only thing that I kind of disagreed on the price of was the extra topping I chose. There is an option on the bottom of your menus where you can pick and chose toppings that aren't originally on your food and add them. I chose to add avacado to my dish for $2.50..... but the pieces of avacado I received.... nOPE. DIDNT DO IT FOR ME. They cut it up to decorate the plate and there are maybe 3 or 4 very small slices. After seeing what I got, I was alittle disappointed I wish there was more.

Maybe I'm being greedy and trying to think of downside when there really isn't one. But on the upside that is my only compliant 😅.

Oooh also, for all you non-meat eaters out there. I believe there are two dishes for you aswell. The "Cabbage Patch Kid" and "Baba's Original" but dont quote me on those names. The menu is available online for your viewing purposes.

PS; DID I MENTION THAT THEY HAVE DESSERT PIEROGIS!?🎉

PSPS; I throughly enjoyed watching Animal Planet on the flat screen TV while waiting for my food. So glad atleast one place has something other than sports on. I'd much rather watch sloths...

Update September 8th-

Husband and I have been coming since they opened its our favorite place! Unfortunately im not sure i want to go back after tonight. Just because there is an event going on doesnt mean you change things about your menu when you've been doing something any other time, you get extra staff to accommodate your business OR make it known so I could have added a note, instead of having to throw a whole meal out. I am so disappointed what a waste of money, and I just kept getting excuses. They said they will call me within a day, so I will update how they plan to fix this. Perogies are also hard and stale as like they pre made a bunch and had them sit there. Just to re heat. UPDATE 5days later- havent heard anything so they obviously dint care about making things right with customers. What a disappointment. I will not be back. Also will be spreading word. See how much longer this places lasts when they dont care about customers.

Original post (2020?) Love love loooove this place. We make the drive from brantford for there pierogies. Went to my grandparents today first time in months and pre ordered and everything was amazing grandparents loved it and said they will be going back. The server was super nice and friendly and it was in the middle of dinner rush, thank you for opening in Hamilton. Now come to...

Food is really good and a lot of varieties… just one word… Justinflation… or maybe Justshrinkflation? Which ever you decide works best… they charge insane prices for extras and absolutely will NOT give anything extra… second time ordering $3.75 worth of cheese curds and received NONE. Wont be ordering from here again as the first time I emailed them they blocked my email.

I’m sorry? 1 oz portion of what? I didn’t mention anything of the sort. I mentioned an almost $4 charge and received nothing of that charge.

I continued ordering every once in a while hoping you’d change your ways but have you???? No. Because I just put a third complaint in to Uber eats for a $10 charge for cheese curds on two orders and received NONE.

I don’t know where you got sour cream from because I don’t eat your sour cream. I don’t like sour cream, I don’t know where you got that idea from. I’m simply complaining about a $4 charge numerous times and you did not deliver.

Perhaps if you’re talking about add ons you shouldn’t say SAUCES. Regardless, I haven’t received cheese curds in about the last five times I’ve ordered from you. Then you go and block my email while I wasn’t even harassing you… I’ll harass you now though. Your establishment is pathetic and my pulled pork hardly had any on it as well. You think you’re getting ahead but...
