I finally tried Pierogi Love at Gen Con on Friday (08/01/2025), and... unfortunately, I was not impressed. FOOD (& PRICING): I opted for the Loaded Pierogi dish, which described the inclusion of five (5) pierogis - hand-stuffed potato & bacon pierogis with applewood smoked bacon, sour cream, and chives. The pierogis were deep fried. The dish was listed for $14. I know event prices are generally steep for any food services and/or vendors, so the price matched what I anticipated spending on food. Plus, the menu did state five (5) pierogis would be in the dish. Honestly, from the moment I looked at my order, I could tell the pierogis were cooked (fried) too long. The pierogis weren't good. I would describe them as instant cheese-flavored mashed potatoes encapsulated in a hard, deep-fried shell. The toppings were thrown on haphazardly. The bacon was a bit hard & didn't give off fresh mouthfeel. The green onions (chives) were chopped carelessly - There wasn't consistency between the size of the chopped pieces. Bottom line - The dish didn't seem hot or fresh. The pierogis were overcooked & hard. SERVICE: As far as service goes, I believe that went well. Regarding service, that went well. I had a spinal procedure the day before attending Gen Con & was in a wheelchair for the day, so the other member of my party assisted me in the ordering & pickup process. I was ten (10) feet away from the food truck at most, so I could hear & see the employees. There were no issues with service. Overall, I don't think I'll utilize Pierogi Love again at any events due to the experience I had. Thanks for reading my review. Have a great day! read more

They use AI and cower away from any criticisms online. I assume most of their website and promotions are very selective to falsely but them in a good light. As a second Gen polish person, I would avoid for so many reasons, not even including their menu, which is an atrocity to polish food. read more

I have never had a pierogi before. I'm not sure why I was afraid to try them before, something about the combination of dough stuffed with potato did not sound good to me. But I'm trying to support local businesses and I was already at Takeout Tuesday in the Wildcat Run neighborhood for some dessert so I thought, why not? I went with the traditional since this was my first Pierogi experience. It was cheddar and potato stuffed dough with sour cream and chives on the side. I thought it was delicious. The sour cream and chives balance out the richness of the pierogi. I would definitely order again. They were very friendly and I got my order quickly. read more

I found Pierogi Love on Facebook. And then saw an event close to me. The food truck parked in the office lot. They placed a sign at the complex entrance. Off we go to try them! They opened at 5pm. When we arrived at 5:10 there were 3 people in line. Orders were quick..limited menu (see photo). Cash or card. Our order was ready in less than 5 minutes. Got home and dug in! The pierogis are yummy, if a little heavy. The saurkraut with the Farmhouse was a little off. The sausage was great though. All in all, authentic pierogi for a little more $$ than I like to spend. [Prices were not listed on the menu]. But glad we tried them! read more

Tried this food truck by work. They have several varietues, but the y, for the most part, use the same base potato pierogi in all of them. They toppings are what change. You get a decent portion size so it's pretty reasonable. read more

Pierogi Love Indy - Food Trucks Near Me

My first pierogi - I'm hooked! I got the ones topped with cheese sauce, sour cream and bacon - run, don't walk!

One of the worst pierogies I've ever had in my entire life. It tastes like it came from the freezer section at Walmart. Flavorless and bland. I am highly disappointed. When I mentioned that it was frozen in the center I was met with hostility. read more

the food and service are great they said hi wen ever I walked in and the food was freshly made. I will eat her every day

We hired Pierogi Love for a school event, and everyone loved it! The food is so delicious! I tried a loaded platter with bacon, cheese, and sour cream. Ridiculously good. Very friendly, great communication. Would recommend any time! read more

We absolutely love Pierogi Love. We've eaten at their food truck several times and it is legit! We decided to have them cater our Christmas party and it was amazing!! Super easy to organize...they came in and pt everything together including providing plates and cutlery. They were so very sweet and everyone LOVED to food. read more

This food truck was outside the Government center today. I absolutely love pierogis and was super excited. I ordered the Loaded Lender which is 5 pierogi with bacon, cheese, sour cream and chives on top. It was enough to fill me up. They did not skimp on the toppings. Each pierogi was well covered and there were toppings to spare. The service was so fast. The fast service is great on a short lunch time. I would try some of there other flavors in the future, but price wise not something I can do very often. read more

We had this food truck come to our neighborhood, and I am pretty disappointed after waiting weeks to try it. I'm from Buffalo, New York, and great up eating homemade pierogis. I figured, since this food truck's specialty is pierogis, they'd have homemade ones, especially for $10 for four pierogis. I was pretty shocked when I saw the guy pouring frozen pierogis out of a bag into the deep fryer. I could've stayed home and made the Mrs. T's pierogis I have in my freezer and saved the $20 I spent for the two "meals" I bought. Also, the one order I got for myself had sautéed pierogis that were half cold and half cooked. I had to microwave them. I don't like giving businesses low ratings, but I feel like they really, really need to step up their game and serve real pierogis especially for $10/serving. I wish I would've read the reviews before eating here so I knew they used frozen pierogis from a bag. read more

We only had 1/2 hour for lunch, and, it was NICE to see how fast our food was ready. Or, so we thought, anyways. That's the best i can say. THREE people on my team, plus myself, ALL ate from that truck, and, we ALL had explosive diarrhea. Not the comfortable kind, either. It was volcanic and our insides burned with too much HURT. We ALL missed TWO days of work for eating that crappy food and our whole company had to suffer along with our customers, because we missed two deadlines, thanks for Peroigi Love Indy Diarrhea. STAY AWAY from that truck and the Pastabiltiez truck *****AT ALL COSTS*****. You have been warned ! read more

The Pierogi's were great! The only downside was the price. I think you should've gotten more for the price. $10 was steap for 5 tiny pierogis. read more

I was eager to try these because I love pierogis and frequent the Pierogi Fest in Whiting, but these don't even compare. They're terrible and tasted old and crunchy. A piergi should only have so much crunch. So disappointing and waste of money. read more

Pierogi Love Indy - Loaded Lender - Food Trucks Near Me

First of all, I need to say where I am coming from. There were 4 generations of pierogi makers alive in my family when I learned how to make my first batch. I'm sure the recipe was handed down by many generations before that. With that introduction, let me say that I have NEVER had a BAKED pierogi until today. Baking dries out the dough. Would you eat a baked ravioli? Of course not. The proper way to cook pierogis is to boil them until they float on the surface and then fry them in a pan with onion and butter. Period. I think the potato and cheese pierogi that were served today had an agreeable center. That's a matter of individual taste and I think these were more than acceptable in that regard. But, please, if you sell pierogi for a living and charge $2.00 to $2.50 each, please use the boil/fry method. read more

My daughter's and I were very excited to try this Pierogi Love food truck at an in town food truck festival. As I stepped to the window, I asked the girl taking orders who on the truck makes the Pierogi, she glanced around and said "We buy them from somewhere in Pennsylvania ". I have made Pierogi my entire life (I'm 53) and I learned firsthand with the old Ukrainian women in my grandmother's church basement.... my standards are very high! We ordered 3 different meals, all of which were incredibly disappointing to say the least. They tasted like the freezer box of Mrs. T's that I tried ONCE out of simple curiosity. If you are going to serve Pierogi, try finding a place that makes them fresh, and larger than a golf ball. My advise, save your money people. read more

Hey thanks for the old pierogies. Food trucks aren't a cheap place to eat, they're a fun place to eat, and 9 out of 10 times it's good food made by people with a passion for food. This was the 10th time apparently. Awful. When you pay $26 for 2 orders of pierogies, one would expect to receive something that was made up sometime in the same week . Not over cooked , just precooked, hard and old. Awful. read more

I don't know about their food, but I saw a truck driving south on I-65 yesterday. He was driving like an a-hole. I'm fine with that, but when he tailgates a motorcycle I'm forced to say something. Learn how to use a blinker too when you change lanes. For that reason..... I'm out! read more

Really enjoyed the food last time I was at Gen Con, I tried both the regular and fried pierogies on different days, I prefer the regular ones. I'd give them a higher rating but the price is so crazy expensive. read more

Pierogi Love Indy - a person holding a basket of food in front of a food truck - Food Trucks Near Me

I ate at this truck around 3 years ago. I had hoped since they were still in business that they had improved because what I had 3 years ago wasn't edible. Well, not sure how they could have made it worse, but they did. I almost couldn't even bite into them because they were so tough, they were bland, no onions to speak of and a little dollop of sour cream. $10, which I was thinking was outrageous, but it doesn't stop there. There was no soda of any kind, only water, which I didn't want with my lunch. So, I was already a little irritated about the lack of soda when the guy says $11.18. WTF? The sign says $10 and I know even with restaurant tax in Indianapolis that it's not over 10% so I question him. It's a credit card charge. Whatever... I won't be back and will never recommend them. read more

Enjoyed two different kinds of pierogis yesterday at the margarita madness run. The loaded ones had bacon, sour cream and chives and were soooo good. The other ones had sautéed onions on top and had tons of flavor, too! Definitely recommend! read more

LOVE Pierogi Love Indy. Can't wait for them to come back to Food Truck Thursdays at the Government Center. Traditional is the way to go.

Straight up frozen pierogies. I was expecting at least homemade pierogies but they are frozen mrs ts pierogies. I would avoid this at all costs read more

I very rarely rate a business as only one star. However after a very negative experience with them I can not give them a better score. They had their food truck out to handle the gen con convention for a few day, this was not their first year participating so they should have been aware of the high numbers of people they would be feeding. I had heard great things about them so I didn't mind that I had to wait 15 minutes in line just to order. When I went up to the window to order I was informed that sautéed pierogies we're running about 20 minutes behind. Again, I willingly agreed to this since I didn't want deep fried ones and pierogies are something my cancer tummy handles very well. After I ordered the cashier asked for $10, I handed her my credit card and she charged the order never telling me a new total or having me sign on the purchase (which struck me as odd since most trucks use that as an opportunity to get a tip added on to the purchase). I received my food at 20 minutes as expected and the person handing the food out to me was friendly and polite. The food was very satisfactory, a few were harder than I expected and there wasn't much onion, but overall I enjoyed it and saw no reason to complain about the food. The very negative experienced followed after my meal. When I checked my email that evening I looked at my receipt and was a little surprised to see an $11 charge when the total had been $10. I checked their itemization and found I'd been charged $1 for using the card. I wouldn't have objected if they had told me at the time of the charge, it was just a bit disconcerting to find it unexpectedly. I responded to them through square feedback letting them know that I had been surprised by this charge and not informed of it, so it felt a little dishonest. A few days later I received a very rude and inappropriate response from them, it clearly had made them so angry that 45 minutes later they felt a need to even send me a second response! I will let the screen shots from my email (and the picture I took of the menu board) tell the rest of the story. Even if they felt I had been properly informed there is never any excuse for how they talked to me and responded. read more

This truck was at Tanjerine and was serving up our choice for best food of the night. Plus they were quick and friendly.

I've eaten at this truck twice - the first time was pretty good, the second time was meh (overcooked maybe, very hard - like rock hard), but both times were a bit pricey for the amount of food in my opinion. I think this truck knows what they are doing, but it can be hit or miss. I will try them again and would say it is best suited for a cold day. read more

Awful. If I'm going to pay 10 bucks for 5 tiny pierogi I expect them to be hot and NOT OVER COOKED. They were Hard and cold and smaller than they should be. Extremely ridiculously priced and the wait was long if I had known the dude in the roach coach was clueless I would have micro managed him. Love food trucks but not this one. McDs is a better choice (barf) read more

Pierogi Love is the best comfort food you can find! Save room for the dessert pierogi when they have them... so good!

I am Polish. I watched them prepare frozen pierogies from a supermarket bag. What a horrible insult! They were expensive and awful! Do yourself a favor and skip this insult to a beloved tradition. Btw, 3 pounds for 5$ in almoat any stores freezer section. read more

I tried this place after some made a little buzz about it. And if i could give ZERO STARS I WOULD. This truck is disgusting looking and that should have been the first clue to run me off, but I like Pierogis so i tried it. The customer service was down right CRAP! I met the owner Rob and he was one of the brashest most conceited and rude people I have ever met, with that attitude alone I am starting to see why he had to open a gofund me account to help "save his truck." Yeah right! The food was not only cold but had a weird taste to it. Once again I should have looked at that clue, but I finished my food since it was soo OVERPRICED. THEN LOW AND BEHOLD about half hour later I was sick as a dog. GO FIGURE. Over priced and it made me sick.. After doing a little more looking up on this truck, im not really surprised, there's gotta be more people who get sick from this place. Especially after checking their Health Department Inspection record. See for yourself Marion County Health Dept. SO TO SUM IT ALL UP........ STAY AWAY!!!!! read more

Had this at Taste of Indy today. Embarrassingly small portion for 5 tickets($5). One small pierogi cut into four pieces. I think I had more sour cream than pierogi. The pierogi itself was subpar, doughy and not much filling. Skip this truck. read more

So I placed an order while at the Shamrock 5K Beer run on 3/11/17, and proceeded to wait over 45 minutes for my one order of pierogis ~ which cost $10. Every single person that ordered was forced to wait - at length- for the food. There were other food truck, also serving a lot of people, so I'm not sure why Pierogi Love was unable to prepare and serve in a timely manner. After waiting, I received pierogis for $10 ~ which is ridiculous! I will not be a returning customer! read more

I rarely post reviews but this has to be one of the worst food trucks I have ever tried. I decided to try the kehw-bah-sah the other day which is basically a polish sausage with sauerkraut. OH MY GOD was it awful. Not only was the sausage over cooked and dried out but the sauerkraut was absolutely GOD AWFUL. I got seriously sick from eating this and I can not remember the last time I got food poisoning. I partially blame myself for trying this since I decided to ignore the fact that this food truck looks like it has not been cleaned since its first day on the streets (HOW DOES HE HAVE A PERMIT TO OPERATE?!?!?). To make this even better, I also had the pleasure of meeting the owner Rob who could care less about his customers. The guy is simply rude and it seemed like I was inconveniencing him buy getting food from him. Long story short, STAY AWAY FROM THIS FOOD TRUCK. If you want some authentic Polish / German food I highly suggest you simply go to The Rathskeller. read more
