Krakus Restaurant — Restaurant in Wallington

We decided to try Krakus Restaurant for lunch. It is a true authentic Polish-Americans restaurant. This family owned restaurant was in operation for sixteen years with Mom working in the kitchen and daughter waiting the tables. When we entered we were promptly greeted and seated. The restaurant is clean and spacious because of covid. There already was a lunch crowd. All appeared to be attend. When we ordered our drinks they were promptly served. Our waitress took our order of tomato and Zurek soups, pierogie, Polish sampler, and Hungarian goulash. The soups were served hot large bowls. Both were rich in taste. Next came the pierogi. A dozen pierogie of 6 potato and cheese and six sauerkraut and mushroom with sauteed bacon. Next came the Polish sampler consisting of, stuffed cabbage, kielbasa, hunter stew/bigos, pierogie, potato pancakes. It was served with plenty of sour cream and apple sauce. Try adding sugar to them for a tasty variation. The potato pancakes were crispy and thin for another delicious treat. The potato pancakes were fried but, not oily or greasy just right. This plate is more than enough for two had we known we would not order the other dish. Now the Hungarian goulash was served with perfect curbed beef in a sauce between two potato pancakes like a sandwich. You get two sandwiches. I thought the beef was overcooked because of the small pieces of beef. I would recommend a larger pieces of beef. Prices were reasonable and service was attentive and courteous. There is street parking and they do have a private parking lot. It's worth a trip. Oh and yes, they have a liquor license with a large selection of...

Awful.

Went to celebrate with family and friends…evening was beyond disappointing. Multiple dinner choices were sold out and no longer available (even though we were there at 6:30 pm); ordered food as they still apparently had a lot of other appealing entrees; then waited. We waited until just before 8pm and still no food. We tried after about an hour to order an appetizer thinking that would at least get something on the table. Waitress received order, no difference …still no food. After about 90 minutes, we gave up and left. Most tables had customers, but the restaurant was not packed full.

I would think, if I were someone reading this review, that maybe we were loud (we were not), we were argumentative (we were not), we were rude (we were not), or we were demanding (we were not). We just were a group of adults looking to celebrate with Polish food before the holidays (my wife is Polish), and politely asked 2-3 times the waitress for an update on the food (she repeated that it was still being prepared in the kitchen). Obviously we will not be going back, but it was so surprising to just be so ignored (as we saw other tables that came after us being served), and to not be served for no apparent reason.

I normally choose to not write negative reviews, but this was truly incredible…in such a bad way.

I would highly recommend NOT going to...

Let me start by saying I cannot overstate how good the food was. Some friends from my community college recently came to visit me from out of state, and seeing that one of them came from Poland originally, we decided to go out for Polish food. Krakus came highly recommended by a girl at my nail salon, so we drove over from Little Falls. All I can say is WOW! The food here is AMAZING! We started with the cheese blintzes and I was floored. I could not believe how good they were. We also got two sets of pierogies — one strawberry and one potato. I couldn’t tell you which was better; they were both incredible. We got some kind of cucumber salad too, I forget what it was called, but it was delicious on top of a little bit of the savory pierogi. I had never had Polish food before but I will definitely come back again with my local friends soon. I could not believe how...
