I also really enjoyed the Ukrainian meatball with butter noodles and tomato cream sauce. Something about that combo is dreamy! The meatball is tender and the sauce is just the perfect balance of creamy and tomato-y. The restaurant side has a cafeteria-style setup. There's also a deli with so many meats, bread, snacks, and condiments. Service was fantastic and everyone was friendly. There's a small parking lot for use while shopping there but it can definitely fill up.

As always, I got the meatball with the tomato cream sauce; that sauce is the best!!!! We also got the pierogis but they weren't as good as usual, I think they were over fried and dry, and just didn't taste like I remember. Overall, I love this spot and the Eastern European comfort food they serve.

New kid on campus?!? Gotta check this spot out!…read more I work nearby so I simply walked, and since it's on campus, I'm sure they expect mostly walking traffic. Some street parking on neighboring streets! The space itself is quite large and spacious. It fits the general design and flow of other Zupas spots, with counter ordering and choose your own seating! The staff were very friendly during my visit! I ordered the best thing on the menu: the 2 choice combo. I picked a full sandwich and a cup of soup! It comes with a roll and a chocolate covered strawberry! I had the BBQ Brisket sandwich, which is loaded up with meat, veggies, and a yummy sauce. My only complaint is that it's a bit bready. I also had the Mushroom bisque, which was a warming, creamy soup to heat up with after a chilly walk over! Lovely taste across the board!

Parking is a bit tough in this part of town, but there are some street parking spots available on nearby streets. The space itself is tucked between a few other establishments. It is small, with tables for groups of two and four, which is perfect for the students and staff passing through. The staff is always very helpful and friendly when I stop by! This spot is known for its Bahn Mi and Rice Bowls! I always get a Bahn Mi, which comes in small (plenty for one meal) or a large (perfect for leftovers or to split). The pork is my favorite, which is always tender, flavorful, and piled high! The sandwich also comes with a plethora of traditional veggies, including carrots, cucumber, jalapenos, and cilantro! The crusty, crunchy bread really makes this sandwich! I like mine with pate and mayo for a bit of creaminess! Never hurts to add a side of their freshly fried cream cheese wontons! The serving size of everything is also a great value for the cost. Truly one of my favorite slightly hidden gems in the Stadium Village area. Will be returning regularly!

I split the vodka…read moresauce pasta and lemon pesto burrata pasta with a friend and they were kind enough to pre-portion the vodka sauce on separate plates for us which felt like above and beyond service. They weren't able to do that with the burrata pasta due to the burrata ball on top which was completely fine! Both pasta dishes were tasty but the lemon pesto burrata blew me away. Every bite was absolutely incredible and it's such a unique dish that's hard to find somewhere else or replicate at home. I completely recommend giving it a try. The focaccia bread appetizer was also amazing! We added & paid for a few extra pieces to accommodate the size of our group and everyone absolutely loved it. The drinks were also really well done & strong without being overly stiff. They were really well mixed and tasty. Our server was so sweet and helped make the experience so special for us. I cannot wait to come back!

I was craving something light, healthy, and refreshing, and ended up ordering the Beet Steak salad -- it was SO good and honestly the highlight of my experience! The inside of the restaurant is just as cute and stylish as the patio, with a warm atmosphere that makes you want to stay awhile.

It's meter street parking but I've never had an issue finding a spot. The meatballs and sausage were amazing, but the pothole pie was really bland. We think they may have forgotten to add seasoning. Some of the tables are pretty small so if you're ordering a few things you may have to arrange the plates carefully to have everything fit. The servers are always really friendly and coffee is good here too. I'm between 4 or 5 stars only because of the pothole pie, but if they fixed that it would get 5 stars from me for sure!
