    Stopped into Olesia's for a quick bite and hopefully some shareable options. This was my first time in and the vibes and ambiance of the place are fantastic. Super nice interior with a great patio that is well shaded. Our waiter was kind and knowledgeable of the menu. The menu is pretty large and do offer a variety of foods that deviate from their Eastern European cuisine if that is not what you are into. We got Olesia's platter to share which came with sausage, stuffed cabbage and pierogis. I'd say the pierogis were the best. The stuffed cabbage was a bit too rice heavy for my liking and I did not love it. We also ordered the deviled eggs which we all were not the biggest fans of as we found them a bit bland and very watery making them tough to eat. The final thing was the beet salad, it's very arugula heavy and I was wishing it was a bit larger with additional toppings rather than it mostly being arugula. This place is a bit on the pricier side and portions are not huge so just know that in case you are planning to potentially share something. Overall, Olesia's is a very cute place and offers a large menu and is definitely a place to give a go. their sausage was great and pierogis as well as the Saurkraut so those would be my recommendations! It also is a great place to sit and chat indoor or outdoor with some drinks and quick bites or full entrees.

    If I could give Olesia's 10 stars, I would. Every single bite of food was outstanding; starting with the deviled egg appetizer to the entrees and dessert, just so delicious. They have a full drink menu as well. The architecture of this restaurant is gorgeous and unique, including the wonderfully decorated large patio, makes a great place for a romantic dinner. Service was fantastic, our server Justin S, was very pleasant and polite. They have plenty of vegetarian options as well which was surprising but welcome for the vegetarian in our group. Absolutely we will going to be back for sure, loved everything!

    Good was all fantastic! One of the best sea bass I've ever ate. Service was all great. You could tell they have good team work. Have several different people getting us waters when needed and taking dishes when finished on top of normal waitress. Ambiance was elevated and very nice.

    I really like this place, it's beautiful and the food is good. This visit we had take out, stuffed cabbages (2 orders!) and one order of pierogis. The last time I used the restroom loved their wall paper.

    From the moment you walk in, Olesia's Taverne impresses with its ornate dining room. Every detail feels intentional, elegant, and inviting. Even before settling in, a quick stop at the spotless restroom speaks volumes about the care taken throughout the space. I chose to sit at the bar, which offers comfortable seating and a great view of the action. Although the bartender was quite busy, she eventually greeted me warmly and offered a variety of menus. While I had browsed the restaurant's website beforehand, I did notice a few subtle differences between the online menus and what was available in person... something to keep in mind if you're planning ahead. The food and drink selections are extensive, with plenty to explore. I settled on a glass of the Inscription Pinot Noir from Oregon's Willamette Valley. It was smooth, bright, and layered with red fruit and subtle spice. It turned out to be a perfect match for the 6oz center-cut filet, which was cooked beautifully and served with silky mashed potatoes, crisp asparagus, and a tangle of crispy onions. While I could have done without the onions, everything else on the plate was spot on. I also tried a side of grilled asparagus, lightly drizzled with balsamic... simple, fresh, and just the right touch of acidity to enhance the vegetables' natural flavor. Although I passed on dessert (with Country Maid ice cream just down the road calling my name), I left thoroughly impressed and eager to return. Every dish that passed by looked thoughtfully prepared and genuinely delicious. This is clearly a place worth coming back to.

    Pork schnitzel

    Such a wonderful place to dine in at. We always seem to forget about it and then there's a big time gap in between our visits there. Our latest meal did not disappoint. We had shrimp cocktail, flight of soups, the SSS entree and pork schnitzel. All were very good. Only complaint is that we wish we didn't have to ask for more bread from our server when the server at the tables next to us asked them many times. Also, just because we had leftovers, doesn't mean we are not interested in dessert. Our server could have asked but lacked in that area. That's our biggest complaint, but it won't stop us from returning for more delicious meals.

    This tavern honestly blew my expectations. The food was delicious, fairly priced, and the ambiance was perfect. I got the chicken wings, pirogies, and mashed potatoes. All came out very fast and obviously homemade. The service was also excellent and quick. Will definitely be coming back!!

    Pork Schnitzel

    We made reservations on a Friday night for dinner and to see Ronnie Clinton in the speakeasy. Easy parking, speakeasy is downstairs. We ordered the chorizo meatballs for an appetizer and they were amazing- so good we both said we would order them for dinner next time, nothing like it around. We had quick service, bartender checked on us a couple of times, our waitress was very attentive, water glasses always filled, the complimentary bread and garlic butter was delish as well. We have had the pork schnitzel and short ribs before and like the mashed potatoes they comes with. They were both excellent meals. Looking forward to come back!

    Deviled egg ambiance
    Amanda D.

    I've eaten here a number of times in past it was fine, but recently got take out twice and it was horrid. Food tastes like chemicals. I wouldn't have gotten it a second time but my husband got it... the menu never changes and it's such heavy food, not something I desire to eat often even if good. The hot soup served in flimsy thin plastic container screams cancer, not so appetizing, nobody ate it, the hummus was a spit sized serving in a ketchup cup (lmao) the pitas burnt and hard and dry, the kids tenders and fries were way too salty for consumption, and the wedge just tasted like a Sysco wedge I can get anywhere all this way over priced. Mashed potatoes taste like chemical flare and I lost my appetite didn't want the schnitzel at this point. The ambiance of the deviled eggs was prob the best thing we got. ‍ I'll let everyone else line up to eat here bc it's not my jam.

    They don't regularly pound their schnitzel thin enough. It's too thick. Besides that, everything we've had is great.

    One of the best restaurants I've been to in the Cleveland area. Everything was excellent stuff. Cabbage and pierogies are great.

Now, stop imagining, because Krakus Polish Deli & Market in Boardman, Ohio, is that magical land, and it is the holy grail of pierogies, kielbasa, and all things Polish food-related. If you haven't been yet, your taste buds are straight-up missing out. First of all, let's talk pierogies, these little pockets of heaven are to die for. Like, not even exaggerating. I tried the classic cheese and potato ones, and I'm pretty sure I saw a light flash before my eyes. Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, these pierogies are so good they should be illegal. But wait--there's more! They do weekly pierogi specials, and trust me, each week is a new flavor adventure you won't want to miss. The cabbage roll; Heavenly. The sausages... Let me tell you, if there's a better kielbasa on the planet, I don't know it. The market is like a treasure chest of authentic Polish foods, we're talking everything my Polish grandfather used to keep stashed around the house, like sauerkraut pickle jars (which I'm 100% sure he got directly from the motherland), obscure teas, crunchy wafers, and probably some mysterious cured meats you didn't even know you needed in your life. And then there's the prices. I don't know how they're doing it, but you could feed an entire village of hungry Babcias (grandmas) on a budget here. Incredible value, folks. But--here's the catch--the hours are... um, "quirky." Like, if you're planning to roll up for a late-night pierogi binge, you might want to double-check their hours because they close early. It's kind of like they really want you to enjoy the pierogies, but on their schedule. So, don't be that guy who rolls in at 7:15 pm and finds the door locked. Trust me, I've been that guy. So, check the hours, make sure you're ready to dive headfirst into some of the best Polish food you'll ever eat, and prepare to have your mind--and stomach--blown. Krakus is like stepping into your Polish grandma's kitchen, if your grandma was a magical food wizard who had a secret stash of pierogies she didn't share with anyone. GO HERE. Seriously. If I could give this place 6 stars, I would.
