Solid 4.5 stars. SO and I got 2 small orders of the bacon & cheddar and potato & cheese pierogis...pan fried of course. You can opt to get a small order (5 in each) or larger (9 in each). We thoroughly enjoyed every bite, especially the bacon & cheddar! Perfectly fried on the outside, and the fillings for both were on point too! It's a small joint, so you may or may not be able to get a table. I also want to note how kind the staff was! Very nice folks, and they seemed genuinely happy that we enjoyed the food so much! Would love to return for my next pierogi craving and try the other fillings. read more

Very bland food. Not bad, but no flavor. Nice people though. Cute place to eat, if you like neutral food.

This is amazing place and the food is even better. Awesome service. We travel 1,5 h to get there and it was definitely worth it. Thank You read more

Good. I make my own pierogies all the time at home. I make my baba's recipe. Myself being in the restaurant industry and owning a few I know that the prices are very high for the quality. When frying it should be in butter not cheap oil. Bacon cheddar was amazing. Dough is awesome. Staff friendly. I am a tough critic and this is good in my opinion. read more

Baba's Pierogies - Menu, lots of flavors - Modern European Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I am so happy that I can get my pierogies close to home ! This place is a god-send and did not disappoint at all. You put your order at the counter and the restaurant makes it fresh. I would highly suggest the extra toppings of caramelized onions and mushrooms & trying some of the dips. We ended up getting a large and small order of different pierogies. This was definitely enough for two if not too much. After you put your order, snag a table! When we were there on a Friday night, it was a bit difficult to get seating. This is because it does take time to make the pierogies so the customers are usually just sitting at the table and waiting for their order. Lastly, bus your own table. I believe when we went about a month or so ago, the restaurant was still working on getting their beer and wine license. read more

Pierogies here are amazing ! I recommend the ones full of Mac and cheese. Small place but cozy. Service was great when we went there. You eat and you feel in Europe. read more

One of my new favorite spots downtown! I've had lots of authentic Russian and Ukrainian pierogies - from Brighton Beach restaurants, to my Grandma's cooking. These pierogies are made with a modern twist and a lot of traditional skill. I like the small menu - no frills, just delicious perogies. They taste great. I usually go for the boiled potato perogies with fried onions (the classic option), but also recommend the fried mac-and-cheese perogies for something more modern. Baba's Pierogies: comfort food done right. Do yourself a favor and check them out! read more

I like the freshness of the ambience, with clear wood finishes. And it's clean and smells nice. I was lucky to get there and find a table immediately, even if it was around 12pm, I am sure it gets busy then. The service is super nice and helpful, they have free water for everybody which is I appreciate when I find it. I ordered the boiled bacon and ceddar 5pcs pierogi ($8.50) with additional saute' mushrooms ($0.75). Both delicious, very fresh, mouth melting and tasty. As I told the kind Lady at the counter, next time I will ask for double saute' mushrooms because the quantity of pierogi vs the mushrooms is not balanced (too few mushrooms). I'll be back for sure and try other versions, but I hope they will introduce a "tasting platter" because personally, being curious but often having lunch on my own, I would be happy to taste different styles without needing to order 5ps of each of these delicious (but filling) pierogi. Tip 1) Baba's is very close to Runner & Stone, I suggest you stop there to buy your bread before going back home! And if you wish to get an excellent lobster roll after the pierogi, just to go from meat/cheese/potatoes to seafood... in front of R&S you'll see Littleneck (open from 5pm - weekends also brunch-time) Tip 2) If you are by car and you don't find street parking, look around.... you'll see a big free parking close by, you just need to do your food shopping there, as it is for customers only. read more

Wait, WHAT? A restaurant and the main dish is Pierogies? That's fantastic, and straight out the gentrification handbook! How could this go wrong? Really it can't, and they're making some pretty great Pierogies, though the prices are be a bit surprising for a typically inexpensive comfort food. I'll just leave it at that. More importantly, they're filling. So in the end it balances out your wallet and your pleasure. Each dumpling is handmade to order, so it takes a bit of time, but they are tasty and worth the wait. If you're looking for a Polish snack, stop by and get some to go - unless the 3 tables are empty and you can stay. Actually that's one thing to consider before going, the seating is limited and I have walked by and noticed it was full, so be prepared for that if it's a popular dining hour and you need your pierogie injection ASAP. read more

Super bland. Nothing was a do over except there caramelized onions were excellent. We got food screwed Sauerkraut pierogis tasteless. I mean tastes like nothing. Spinach pierogis there just O K but not a do over for us. Potato pancake taste more like smashed potatoes. Weak flavor Beet salad. Tasteless. the beets were just boiled or steamed. Cucumber salad. Domineering overwhelming white vinegar flavor. How do they get all these 5 star reviews. How is it possible. Did they just change chefs. Da Foodlum read more

Tasty pierogies in a cute space in Brooklyn. For two people sharing, we went with two small orders of pierogies (5 in each order) - one more classic flavor, the sauerkraut, and one more unusual, the jalapeño cheddar. Both were delicious and I recommend smothering one in caramelized onions and also trying the dip (with sriracha) on the side. Side of beet salad made me feel a tiny bit better getting some veggies in. All in all, a fun place to try some unique, homemade pierogies although prices are high and I'd still rather hit up the Polish restaurants in Greenpoint. read more

Baba's Pierogies - Sauerkraut and jalapeño/cheddar pierogies with beet salad - Modern European Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I love all things dumpling. After driving by Baba's many times and hearing good things about it, I finally had a chance to stop in. It's super cute, with a reasonable amount of seating, and they have a ton of pierogies available. I went with the bacon/cheddar (because it was bacon and cheddar) and the jalapeno. Got both orders pan fried. The pierogies range from $8 to $9.50 for small order of 5, or $10.50 to $12 for a large order of 9. I did two of the small orders just for myself because I'm a fat ass. So that added up quickly. But hey, nothing like potatoes to line your stomach full of alcohol. The dumplings were pretty substantially sized, the skin was just the right thickness to be fried to a crisp without being too doughy. Perfect for dipping into the sour cream that came with the orders. I took mine to go, but I basically destroyed one box of them on my walk home because I just couldn't resist. Again, I'm fat. read more

I've passed by the Baba's Pierogies a couple of times and have always admired the decor from outside. I finally had the chance to try out the food and was not disappointed. The pan-fried jalapeno pierogies were my favorite. They had a mini kick to it and it was veryyyy flavorful. The bacon cheddar ones were also good and I tasted bacon in every bite. The Schnitzel bites were better than I expected, they were crispy and so freaking good. Just remember - order at the register first, then find a seat! Once you find a seat, it's table service. The staff was very nice and they answered all the questions we had on the menu. read more

I have been wanting to try Baba's for a while and was finally in the area on a Saturday night. It was busier than I would have thought and we waited about 10-15 minutes for a table for two (ending up sitting at the counter tops in the back). We ordered three 5-piece pierogies - bacon, cheese, potato; sauerkraut and mom's favorite (ricotta), all pan fried. Our favorite was the bacon cheese potato but what really made them was the onions and sour cream - so good!!! The dough was thinner than I'm used to and some of the fillings were coming out when they were served. Overall not my favorite pierogi I've had in the city, but there are some fun flavors that make me want to come back and try more. We wanted to try to dessert ones but we're too full so we'll definitely have to come back for those. Service was good and food was served quickly and we were on our way! read more

Since I no longer live in the East Village, I don't get to Veselka as often. So, this is where I get my pierogi fix. Try yours w/ the homemade apple sauce, fried onions and Helen's dip...you'll thank me. Cute, light, airy interior. Don't go though, the place is already popular enough. read more

Oh My Pierogies! I have to admit we came because I saw the video clip about the mac & cheese pierogies but once I saw the Jalapeño & Cheese it was game OVER!!! We ordered the potato & cheese and the jalapeño cheese to start and they were delicious pillows of potatoes! If I didn't live so far I'd eat here once a week!!! We then tried the Mac & cheese, it was good but the other two just blew our mind!!! We will definitely be back! read more

I swing through the neighborhood about once a month and this is where I always get my lunch (except when it is Monday and I forget they are closed). All of the pierogies are tasty - Mac & Cheese are a favorite with the little minions, Spinach & Feta are the favorites with the adult set. If you're not in the mood for pierogies, the Grilled Kielbasy and Hamwich are great choices too. If you are in the neighborhood swing by and check this place out! read more

Had lunch there, was immensely impressed, staff was so courteous, answered every question, made recommendations, we ordered 2 different types of pierogi , had the mac & cheese as well as the spinach with feta Cannot describe how delicious they were, got the sloppy kielbasa sandwich, was incredible.

These just might be the best perogis I've ever had. I only gave 4 stars because I didn't get a chance to try them all. They don't allow you to buy individual ones or one of each. You have to buy either 5 or 9 (same kind only) and they have 10 different kinds of perogis. I ordered the classic potato and cheese and the spinach and feta. I also ordered the homemade apple sauce because you can't eat perogis without apple sauce right. They make them right there when you order so it takes a while but it is worth the wait. Wow! I ate all 10, fried of course, because you have a choice of fried or boiled and I'm a sucker for fried perogis. They serve them with Caramelized onions if you like and I liked! Also included was sour cream. I will definitely be back to try the rest. Did I say yum?!! read more

The best pierogies I have ever had and a restaurant run by a really cool couple. Nice work I might be ordering another dish of 25 for just myself soon.

Amazing place! We wanted to try it for a while and it did not disappoint! The service was great and the food was incredible.

This is by far the best pierogies I've had in the US. I got some for an event, and we got one tray each of potato and cheese, spinach and feta, and chocolate. The chocolate came with whipped cream which was awesome, and I really enjoyed the potato and cheese. I like these pierogies because the skin is chewy and the inside is creamy, and it's really tasty. The chocolate one was fried, and since we got it delivered, the skin unfortunately was hard by the time we got it; I'd imagine it's much better if I had it at the restaurant itself. The chocolate one wasn't too sweet either which I appreciated. The potato and cheese was really creamy inside, and it was super tasty, a crowd favorite. The spinach and feta flavor was quite strong, but the balance between the spinach and feta was good. These three trays along with delivery was $130, and each tray had 25 pierogies. Price is a bit high, but quality was good; I would definitely consider them again for catering! read more

I'm sitting here with Fleetwood Mac softly playing in the clean and bright dining area of this little restaurant. It's snowing outside and the restaurant is perfectly cozy. I ordered fried jalapeno and cheddar Perogis with horseradish dip, creamy delicious with just the right amount of crispy chew! The boys in the young family across from me are loving the mac and cheese Perogis! Their mom is happy with the classic potato and cheese. So glad I stopped in. Perfect late afternoon lunch, thank you Baba! I have to come back and try the feta spinach. I also hear the blueberry Perogis are delicious for dessert. I'll be back soon. Give them a try! You'll be glad you did. read more

Be still my heart No seriously, this place is that good, the combination of grandma's dumpling recipe and a friendly staff make this place truly amazing. Walking into the tiny storefront, you'd be forgiven for thinking that this was just an ordinary eatery. I mean, pierogies only, sure that is super nich (borderline hipster), but hey it's Brooklyn after all. Things get a little more interesting when you take a gander at the menu however, with interesting combos like mac and cheese and jalapeno pierogies. You also have your choice of boiled or pan fried, but lets be honest, you're about to consume what essentially amounts to a dough pocket filled with potato and cheese, do you really think that boiling them as opposed to having them fried is going to save your cholesterol levels? You only live once, so C'est la vie; do the right thing and order the potato and cheese and add in bacon and get them fried. once you've eaten a few of these, tell me they aren't the finest you've ever (no seriously, tell me where I can find any better than this in the states and I'll be on my way to try them out). Drop what you're doing and head to Baba's as fast as you can get there, I promise you won't be disappointed. read more

This place deserves all the love in the world! It is flipping delicious, love filled pierogies that will leave you full, satisfied and happy. Not to mention the super friendly staff and cute interior. When they ran out of caramelized onions at the end of the night they gave us a heap of other toppings. My favorite (so far) is the fried bacon cheese with caramelized onions and sautéed mushrooms as toppings. Their apple sauce is yummy too!! The location might be a little lower on foot traffic but I really want them to do well!! Everyone go!!!! It's so worth it! read more

Super cute casual quick food spot in gowanus. The decor is modern, bright & cheery. You order at the counter & they bring you the perogies. Food: We got the Mac n cheese, potato & cheese & spinach & feta perogies. All of them were deliciously pan fried to crispy perfection. The potato & cheese ones were topped with caramalized onions & mushrooms, which j highly recommend. -Mac n cheese was creamy & delicious -potato & cheese were great but I think without the caramalized onion & mushroom add on they would have been a bit boring -spinach & feta was delicious -the sour cream they serve is totally amazing -the blueberry perogies were not my fav but he home made whipped cream was AMAZING Overall great spot for quick casual dinner or take out. Prices are a bit steep for what you get but the food is home made & quality so it's totally worth it. read more
