Opolska is another fine addition to the excellent Polish restaurants in the suburban area. I have eaten here four or five times and have not been disappointed. On this visit, I went with the Wednesday special which is the Polish plate. Besides the traditional cutting board with pate, bread, and pickles, the special includes soup and a soda. The red borscht soup was excellent. I especially enjoyed the stuffed cabbage, potato pancakes, and pierogi as well. read more

This has been on my list for quite some time so I was finally able to go. Parking is a shared lot so plenty of parking available. The restaurant itself is big so you can easily get a table. Restrooms are on both sides. I didn't realize this but this is on the same road as Bacowka. Just a FYI, that one charges you an outrageously high sales tax, their prices in person are higher than what you see on their website, and their service is atrocious. Opolska's menu is not as extensive as Bacowka's but their quality is superior. The service was very attentive and our waitress was really nice. Prices were very fair and sales tax was normal. The food portions were very sufficient, you'll leave full. We ordered a Polish plate, potato pancakes, 5 meat pierogis, and handmade dessert. I also ordered the kompot (homemade juice). It's a refreshing drink, not too fruity. The Polish plate came with kiebasa sausage, 3 different kinds of pierogi, potato pancakes, stuffed cabbage, and sauerkraut. Potato pancakes were not soggy, they were firm and moist. The Kiebasa sausage was juicy and tasted great with the sauerkraut. Stuffed cabbage was my personal favorite. The meat inside of it was well seasoned. Pierogi were all very tasty. They were fresh and had ample fillings. The homemade dessert cake was interesting, it wasn't sweet. It had a graham cracker crust, raspberries, shaved almonds, chocolate, and some cream in the middle. read more

Nice unassuming Polish restaurant in a strip center. I don't think I've had real polish food before per se, I've had similar food, but not specifically this cuisine. The restaurant is very well appointed. Plenty of room, nicely set up tables and the staff are all professional. I ordered the breaded chicken cutlet with mashed potatoes and cucumber salad. I couldn't believe how much food was on my plate when they brought it out to the table. Course. I didn't finish it all but I sure tried. The chicken cutlet was flat and expansive, and I sure hate it to waste it but I just couldn't do all of it and we're staying in a hotel and it wouldn't be easy for us to bring back. Great experience, hope we have more on this trip. read more

A very nice polish restaurant Food was great for this kind of place, Service was very good and we enjoyed it---not fine diinning

I'm Polish I birth and was introduced to Polish food by elderly relatives. After they had passed, I didn't know where I was going to get my fix. However, Opolska has stepped up and delivered. They have a great selection of Polish foods that are so delicious. It reminds me of years gone by. If you're trying them for the first time, I highly recommend the Polish plate. This gives you a variety of items. Staff is always warm and welcoming. read more

Reservations only on sundays. Wouldn't take a walk in 4 adults, a baby and 2 toddlers. half the Resturant was empty at 1:30

Soooo delicious! Must try. Every single dish is absolutely perfect. It makes you feel you are in a beautiful region of Poland. I can't wait to visit again. The staff were helpful and very sweet. This is definitely a gem. If you want to try homemade Polish food at its best. This is the place for you. I personally love the sampler plate. It's a little of everything especially when you can't decide on one dish. I also did something I never do and took a meal home for the next day. That was a real treat. Just remember this wonderful restaurant is closed on Mondays so make sure you plan to go any other day of the week. I'm sure you will be pleased with your evening at Opolska. read more

It was nice to visit here after so long and see that the space was expanded and more tables were added. They now have a full service bar and area with charging outlets under the table. I found that the high top chairs were very uncomfortable. Not sure why they can't get their chairs right. Food is mostly good and fresh. They are always packed and a great place for family gatherings or a casual date. read more

Went for Sunday dinner at 430p and it was packed. Waited 20 minutes to be seated, and while waiting given free beverages which was a nice touch. Once seated good service even though so busy. Ordered the mushroom soup and then roast duck, both were Sunday specials - so delicious! Food outstanding. When we left at 6p started to be less crowded so that may be a better time to try. We will be back! read more

Good Polish food & service! Great for large groups & small parties! Generous portions.

I stopped and only got a bowl of Chicken Rosol. Which is Chicken Noodle Soup. Would have earned a 5 star rating but there was absolutely ZERO chicken in my bowl of soup. Other places I have had this at give you some meat. read more

Very delicious food, very nice and attentive service, we will definitely be coming back!!

For a mere $110.00 lunch Delivered via Uber Eats which I understand costs more bur I plan on not doing this anymore. Food was kind of cold. The Polish sausage Was all dried out.. Couldn't even cut through it. Potato pancakes, way over priced for 4 thin Maybe 3 Inch diameter Pancakes for almost twenty dollars . come on. Friend had a huge piece of Breaded pork tenderloin but unfortunately the side of cucumber salad was all over the top of it. They need to pack things a little bit more carefully. Pierogis were good but all stuck together. My bad for ordering delivery. Not sure.It was my favorite meal there for that price. Sorry. read more

This was.my first visit and I was truly delighted. I ordered a Polish chicken roll. My plate was very tasty and they did not skimp on to portions. Even though the restaurant was very busy, our waitress was very attentive and came back numerous times to check on our table. I would definitely return to sample other Polish dishes. read more

Delicious Polish food, one of the best in the area. Friendly service and atmosphere. Enjoyed every bite!

Got there in a Saturday at 5:00pm. Definitely recommend to make a reservation in advance. Crowded & loud. But server was prompt. Great selection of Polish food and you know the food is good and authentic with all the natives. Not a huge bar selection (didn't bother us since we are poor drinkers) Kitchen gets a little backed up but worth the wait. Definitely one of our Book marks if we are in Roselle! read more

We tried Opolska after a round of golf at Fox Run. The five of us wanted the pork knuckle Saturday special but unfortunately, they only had one available! We ended up ordering different dishes and all were excellent! Place got busy early evening that some people had to wait outside. We plan on going back there when we play golf in the area and will definitely call ahead to make sure they have enough of the pork knuckle dish for everyone to savor. read more

First time at this restaurant. Came here for my daughters bday. I got the sampler plater. VERY generous serving, took some home for lunch the next day. The kielbasa was made on a grill, it was fantastic, no heartburn either. Pierogis and potato pancakes done just right. Highly recommend this hidden gem. All 3 of us enjoyed our meals, we left with a food coma, that's good thing, lot of good food for your money!! read more

I was looking around for a new place to try and Opolska came up in my search with good reviews. Since I haven't had Polish food in a while, I decided to end that streak. There aren't many Polish restaurant around and this place did not disappoint. The inside is nicely decorated and bright. The ladies working here were friendly and welcoming. They brought out complimentary bread and spread, which I love. I'm not sure what the spread was, but it was savory and delicious! Polish Plate $16 - This was a Wednesday special that includes soup, potato pancakes, sausage, 3 potato pierogi, stuffed cabbage and fruit punch drink. Great deal and big portion! The soup was very good and I enjoyed the variety of food on the plate. Fruit crepe $7 - Crepe was covered in fresh blueberries with a side of strawberry. ....| \ _ , , , - - , , _ , .../ , ` . - ' ` ' . _ \ - ; ; ; , _ ..| , a - ) ) _ . ; .

Went for Mother's Day and had a wonderful dinner. They were very crowded and the wait was up to an hour, but they had a heater outside and offered free beers.

The food was very good. Several of us got the Polish plate which had Polish sausage and3 pierogis and potato pancake, and stuffed cabbage. They serve their beverages in cans or bottles so no refills. The prices quoted on their website was cheaper than the prices on their menu. I personally don't think I would go back. read more

MEAL: Lunch MEAL PREFERENCE: Vegetarian ORDER TYPE: Dine in MY RATING: 4.5 MY ORDER EXPERIENCE: The story of this restaurant is that the people are from Opole which is one of the oldest cities in the southern part of Poland. This was one of the restaurants I have been wanting to go to as I read a review from one of the fellow elites which made me try this. I read that this place had the most authentic Polish food. So, I decided to check out this restaurant with my friend. I reached the place a little sooner and booked a table for two in the outdoor seating as the weather was good and the tables were full inside the restaurant. The restaurant was cozy, clean, and well maintained but it could not accommodate more people and I saw that there was a wait when we were heading out. You can imagine how good the food at this restaurant is. They had a wide variety of seating options along with the bar. The waiter then handed over the menu and it was written in both English and Polish. As this was our first time, we were confused on what to order and at one point it felt like we were tourists in a different country because people around were speaking Polish. Upon reviewing and suggestions from the waiter for vegetarian options, I ordered Ser Pieczarki I Warzywa from the Zapiekanki (Baquettes) section, Gofry from Desery (Desserts) and Kompot from Drinks. First, we were served with bread, vegetables and some sort of paste in a bowl which had meat in it where I could not try as a complimentary and the Kompot which was a homemade juice which was good. After a while, I was served with Ser Pieczarki I Warzywa. It was grilled footlong bread topped with fresh cheese, mushrooms, and veggies. The presentation of the dish was mouthwatering, and I was craving for the first bite. The dish was fresh with a good portion and tasted fabulous. The taste was close to pizza. After each bite it makes you want to eat more. Then, I jumped onto Gofry which was our dessert. It was made from waffles topped with cream, chocolate syrup and fresh fruits (strawberries and blueberries). Again, the presentation was good, and the dish was fantastic. It was not too sweet and had the right amount of cream. To sum up, both the presentation and the taste were awesome with reasonable prices. The customer service was exemplary. They had faster friendly staff with faster service. I did not know that Schaumburg had this jewel hiding for a long time. This will be my go-to restaurant to get Polish food. I am going back again to try some more Polish food and their authentic beers. They also had good parking spaces. read more

Add me to the list of people that will be returning to Opolska when I come to Schaumburg again. First off, the service was impeccable. I sat at the bar and was immediately greeted with the high energy of 2 servers. I ordered a beer, which they helped me pronounce( because i had no idea how to say it lol). This restaurant knows how to treat customers in a time where most restaurants are pulling back on service. I was offered an appetizer of bacon butter, bread and pickles. I was actually scared to eat it, for fear I would be charged for it silently. This was not the case. I came on a Wednesday and ordered the Polish Plate. This plate is excellent for those who want to sample the menu. On Wednesdays the plate came with your choice of soup and a free glass of fruit punch. Its been years since i had that many add-ons to my meal. The highlight of the night was the food. The sausage was cooked well and had a great flavor. The sauerkraut went with the pierogies. The stuffed cabbage had some of the most flavorful stuffing, I have had in cabbage. This dish made me want to learn how to cook stuffed cabbage myself. The gravy that came on the cabbage, rivaled the best gravies I have had in the south. I love potatoes and the potato cakes were crispy on the inside and chewy on the inside. I wont even try to replicate those in my kitchen. All in all can not wait to travel for work here again, so I can eat more off their menu. read more

We went at 6:00 on a Saturday night to meet friends and there was a short wait. Manager was very friendly and handed us a cold beer to drink as we waited. Tasty grapefruit beer ! Our waitress was very attentive and allowed us to take our time and look over the menu and came back afterwards to see if he had any questions before we ordered. I had the Polish plate which had a good variety of Polish food, they were good. My husband had the cabbage rolls. They were different than I'm used to, but still tasty. We started with soup, which was very good. The Highlander soup was recommended and did not disappoint. My friends got the pork shank & chicken schnitzel and liked it too. I will be back, appreciate the cleanliness, kind manager & waitress and overall experience! Thanks Opolska Record- keep up the good work!!! read more

Off the wow charts. It gets wows across the board. The plating and presentation of every dish is immaculate. You have to stop, look around, and reaffirm that yep, you are still in Schaumburg (which admittedly is home to many a fine restaurant, but dang!). Be daring. I'd only ever had red borscht, but the white variety they offered - chock full of sausage and in a biiig bread bowl - knocked me and my mouth into next week, in the coziest way possible. So maybe it didn't knock me as much as it picked me up in its arms, made it feel weightless, and then gently, tenderly placed me down in the warm and comforting bed of next week. The waitstaff was very friendly and attentive, and when I tell you the bathroom was spotless, I mean it was showroom ready. It's like they have a knack for cleaning or something. Go here, bring a friend, die a little bit inside, but be reborn with every bite. read more

Best Polish Food Ever. Place was just remodeled & expended. It looks Amazing from how it looked before. Owner is very friendly & so is his entire staff. Food presentation looks great, it comes to you very warm & quickly. Great selection of all the traditional Polish dishes. You definitely need to stop by & try it. It's so worth it. We can't wait to bring all of our friends there soon. Thank you Opolska for a great tasting food & a wonderful experience. Piotr i Agnieszka read more

Wanted to try this place out. Brought the family on Sunday around 4pm, thinking we'd beat the dinner crowd. Place was already full, but we were seated in 5 mins. I don't believe they take reservations. Atmosphere is modern and lively. Service was good. Everything we had was excellent! Polish Platter was great, my daughter had the chicken roll and ate the whole thing. My son had the Goulash and liked it. The owner was coming around pouring raspberry shots for the adults. Nice festive touch. All in all excellent. Will definitely be back, but may have to show up even earlier to avoid the crowd. read more

Thanks to the Yelp community and friends for educating me on Polish (and Russian) cuisine, for without this -- I may not have enjoyed my visit here as much. After great experiences at U Gazdy and Bacowka, I was excited to try another Polish restaurant. Like the other choices, I was expecting a very pleasant experience with nice dinnerware / silverware, good decorations, friendly servers, good plating, generous portions, and comfortable seating all at a good price. Opolska did not disappoint. Overall, I found the food here to be a bit more muted in flavor, but also a bit healthier than the other Polish restaurants I've visited. It's almost like a more refined version of what you find in Polish Delis, but made with slightly better ingredients and arranged nicely to make for good photos. I recommend the cutlet here for a flavorful but healthy treat. It was quite tender and crispy at the same time, with a minimal amount of seasoning. The kebab (more like shawarma) was also very tender and flavorful, with the taste of rosemary clearly shining through the dish. The size of the zapiekanka was a bit surprising, being a full size entree despite the lower price. The sides such as fries and cucumber salad are relatively light in flavor, but were an enjoyable accompaniment with the entrees. Overall, a good dining experience at a reasonable price. I would have liked to see more texture contrast and possibly a little more seasoning in the food -- but I enjoyed the items I tried anyway and look forward to returning again some day. read more
