    Potato pancakes over goulash.
    Marge M.

    The food was very good. We had a variety platter with saurkraut, kielbasa, potato pancakes, and pierogies. We had potato pancakes and goulash. The rye bread on the table was delish. The decor was cute. Very simple. The tables were nicely spaced apart. The waitress was nice, even though she had alot of tables she took it in stride.

    Has great potential. Food was good, but took way too long to come out. All sides are extra which make the meal more expensive. Decor is very outdated. Could use a little upgrade. When asked for the check, that took ages as well. Again, place has potential with some minor tweaks.

    The food was absolutely delicious. Everything was freshly made. You can tell it wasn't frozen or heated up. It was all made from scratch. The service was good too. The servers were kind, respectful, and knowledgeable of the menu. The restaurant was clean and the tables were spread far apart so you weren't sitting on top of the next people.

    Well where do i start!!! I think the name KRAKUS reminds me of the movie KRUMPUS and then funeral repast on the outside kinda did it. So i choose to have dinner. Cabbage soup was not bad, loved the potatoe cheese pierogi, the polish was good. And potatoe pancakes taste like flat extra fried tator totts. My dinner was cut very short, i lost my appetite. The young lady/server held a very long conversation with a guest 5 feet from me, and they were talking about medical procedures. I was very disgusted and could no longer eat. I paid 26.00 for food i could no longer enjoy. Be careful when ordering because i assumed that when they ask what kind soup it came with my dinner order...i was wrong i paid for this mistake. And i asked to taste sourkraute, which was explained to me comes with order, but is extra fee. Anyway! Im dissapointed and my tummy still bothered from being grossed out in middle of my meal.

    I love their food. Their blintzes (nalesniki) are outstanding. When I go there I always order it. Yum Yum.

    Bratek Deli - Stuffed cabbage (2), potatoes with gravy and cucumber salad. Big enough for 2.  One of the best stuffed cabbages I had ever.

    I'm not exactly Polish and do not speak the language, but I love this packed store, which I…read morediscovered after visiting its affiliate, the Pastrami Grill. On the right as you enter there is a section with all kinds of Polish dairy products, butter, farmer cheese, etc., herring and smoked fish. Continue and you come to a hot food bar, which is attended. So far we have tried the stuffed cabbage and the red cabbage, both very good. La Portena picked up a container of beef tripe soup. A bit salty, but very tender. Continue on, and you will come to a deli counter with many types of kielbasa, kabanosy, hams and all manner of Polish pork products. If you're like me, you'll want to find an English speaker, or you can just gesture. Prices are modest, quality is high. There's a large baked goods section as well. I'm always a little nervous about pastry items in these places, but the rye bread was excellent. The pastries look the part. Along the far wall, you'll find pierogies and the excellent pickles they also sell at the Pastrami Grill. As you wait to pay, you can peruse the selection of herbs, spices, and dried mushrooms. Unfortunately for me, the packaging is all in Polish. Check out is pretty efficient. Overall, I would say the store is friendlier than the Polish places I used to visit in Greenpoint, and it has become my favorite store of its type in the tri-state area. Recommended.

    Stopped in on a rainy Saturday at around 2 and the place was pretty poppin. This was my first…read moreexperience at a Polish grocery store, so I didn't really know what to expect. They have everything here - produce, fresh kielbasa, household items, skincare, pastries, and hot foods just to name a few. The pastries are just kind of on a shelf out in the open, which didn't seem too sanitary (or the buffet for that matter) because the store is VERY tight and the aisles are narrow, so I could see it being easy to knock a hand into it, not to mention the conversations happening next to the cramped buffet station. We ended up ordering hot food from behind the counter since none of the buffet items appealed to us anyway. Nothing was labeled so you have to either know what you want, or guess what the food items are. Or if you want to roll the dice and just point, that works too. It seemed there was only one person behind the counter who spoke English but she was busy helping other customers. We ended up getting the stuffed cabbage. You can order the food by weight, or a dinner portion ($9) where you get an entree, potatoes (choose from 3 different styles) and a salad. We did the roasted potatoes and beet salad and both were great, especially the beet salad. The stuff cabbage was just okay. I thought stuffed cabbage was supposed to be mostly meat, but this one was mostly rice with a few specks of meat. We dug into some of it in the parking lot and it was already cold. I wouldn't order this again. Maybe we just didn't order the right thing. I do wish they had cooked kielbasa behind the hot food counter because I would have loved to try those. There's also a packaged cold food section (i.e. various salads, stews, and pierogies) you can bring home and heat up. I ended up getting a quart of half sour pickles to take home. I wouldn't mind giving this spot another try - possibly some of the kielbasa to throw on the grill at home. I don't know of many Polish grocery stores around, especially with such a variety, so I can see why it's so popular.

    The best paczki in USA. Have been going since I was a little kid, no bakery better. Best Polish…read morebakery you will find.

    Have tried several different Polish bakeries & this one(at least as far as babka goes) is by far…read morethe best. I get two of the 3 types Cheese & 7 sisters both very good. The 7 Sisters is very similar to the one Pechters used to make when they had an attached retail bakery for the public(which sadly closed for good during the pandemic) Other items were cheesecake(more like ricotta not two sweet & despite appearance it's surprisingly moist with a layer of chocolate icing), crystal sugar coated creme horns, layered apple cake & until the last couple of visits very good of all things Florentine Lace cookies(which originated from Italy or France depending on who you talk to). All items are fresh & last 5-7 days. Workers are always polite & even though all Polish do speak enough English to properly serve their non-Polish speaking customers. The bakery is very small so any specialty items I always order ahead. As far as the parking I would just park in the lot next door but on my last visit this past Xmas Eve there was a sign on the bakery door warning not to do that because you may get ticketed &/or towed. Fortunately, I was able to find a spot on the same block on the street. The lot as usual was less than 1/4 full so the town of Passaic needs to use their brains & realize making it harder for small business to succeed(especially one where the local clientele has changed drastically over the years) is only going to cost the town in the long run. At least during this visit the meters were covered so no worries about getting a parking ticket. I will continue to patronize this establishment as long as I can park within a block or two.
