    We went to The Ukrainian Village to celebrate Ukrainian Christmas. We had Borscht, Cabbage Rolls, Perogies, Ukrainian Sausage, Coleslaw, ice cream and cake. Every bite was delicious, flavorful and hearty. This restaurant is very cute The service is respectful. We Will return sooner than later.

    Service was great and food was authentic, not greasy to me. I also enjoy the ambiance , it was comfortable .

    Chicken Paprika

    Not fancy outside but very quaint inside and the food was very good. Service was direct and friendly. I enjoyed the Ukrainian Dinner which is big enough for 2 people to share. The sausage was flavourful, and the cabbage roll was stuff with meat and some rice. Also came with 6 perogies and you can select a variety, so I got onion, sauerkraut, and cheddar. My friend had the Chicken Paprika and she tough it was just ok. Next time she would get the cabbage roll and soup. We also finished the evening with a slice of Napoleon cake to share and it was also good. Prices were reasonable and the food hearty and delicious, we will be back.

    I've ate at my share of places along Denman Street so I was surprised to discover that I've never seen Ukrainian Village before. It's located next to Holy Guacamole. The inside has more tables than you'd think. The waitress (aka. the only one working the front) did a great job. Dinner menu is split into soups, salads, appetizers, specialities, main dishes and desserts. Trip #1 We dropped in on a Tuesday evening (around 6:30pm). - Chicken soup ($6.95) - good but a tad small for the price. - Ukrainian dinner ($22.95) - this is the best way to sample everything. Cabbage rolls were excellent; essentially, meatloaf wrapped in cabbage. The meat was incredibly juicy. We tried all three perogy options (potato & cheddar cheese, potato & fried onion and sauerkraut). They're homemade with a thicker wrapper (which we liked) but the filling was a tad bland. It needed a dip into the sour cream. The Ukrainian sausage was satisfying and perfect to dip in the slightly spicy mustard. - Roasted duck ($18.45) - the apple is subtle; I could only taste it on the skin but the duck was a solid portion. The two dollops of mashed potatoes underneath were light and fluffy while the coleslaw, red beets and pickle rounded things off nicely. Trip #2 We dropped in on a Friday evening (around 7:00pm). - Vegetarian dinner ($20.95) - N was feeling the vegetarian option but if you're picking between the two, we preferred the Ukrainian dinner option. The cabbage rolls were healthy but missing a much needed sauce. Perogies hit the spot and again, you get three types. Side of coleslaw and a gherkin added some crunch. - Siberian pelmeny ($17.45) - everyone's first time trying pelmeny (Russian stuffed dumplings). Delicious! Filling was plump, texture had hearty bite and filled with all meat. Would definitely get these again. - Lamb shanks ($25.95 for 2 pieces) - the lamb shanks were a good size with plenty of meat. My favourite parts were from the bone itself. Happy to have found a homey Ukrainian/Russian spot!

    Loved this place, the pelminis were fantastic! Would definitely recommend

    This is the mom and pop place I was talking about. the Ukraine village restaurant.

    I was traveling to Vancouver. I arrived after lunch. I was thinking about what I wanted to eat . Having dropped my bags at the hotel, I ventured out to explore the different places to eat. Of course, I was looking for something unique . Most of the places I saw were similar, or the food was similar to restaurants that I go to where I live in California . Continuing my exploring of the local culinary establishments, I saw this restaurant, a small mom and pop place called Ukrainian village .This was definitely unique and fit the qualifications I was looking for.The food was great tasting, not that I had anything to compare it to. Just the fact that I enjoyed it was good enough for me.

    I come from a Ukrainian background and have been eating Ukrainian meals for most of my life. this is the REAL deal! All the food tastes really homemade and authentic. Perogies, cabbage rolls, sausage I will be back soon!

    We' d been cycling nearly half the day at this point, and I said to my old companion: "I'll need to fuel up before we tackle the Stanley Park seawall". (he dined earlier ) " Why don't we check out Denman Street near the park entrance? " The west end of Vancouver is Canada's most densely populated square mile, 1000 plus eating options! but we chose Ukrainian Village. Got a warm welcome. Invited to park our bikes and chain em safely at the front window of the restaurant where we could keep an eye on em. Seated promptly and orders taken. Water / coffee for the table really quick. Tiny place seats less than 35. Clean nicely decorated. Memories of back 'home', Ukrainian / Russian themed. I hadn't been in for more than 25 years, but FOOD was GREAT back then. I ordered Dairy and Gluten free, no problem says server: Cabbage rolls, tomato based sauce, rice, fermented coleslaw pickle a HUGE plate for HONGRY travellin' man. Real deal authentic home cooked DELICIOUSNESS. I slowly worked my way through it, savoured each bite. My dining companion had a large fresh salad, again BIG generous portion executed well. Priced fairly for this area where real estate is SKY high. Not a lotta chat from lone server, but the food did the talkin', Twas as good as I remember 'back in the day'. Special when 'some things don't change' in this whirled we live in. Vancouver's transition in past 40 years is dramatic, from a village in the rainforest on the edge of the Pacific coast of Canada, to the megalopolis urban jungle of today. We enjoyed our yummy meal, got back to the bikes and rode round the Stanley Park seawall stopping occasionally to view sun setting. Special day. Great weather in Vancouver is always treasured. Price to quality ratio for this meal is good, my MAIN was 20 cdn approx 15 usd, huge salad and coffee a tenner = value 5 on the Yelp meter. 4's all round other things considered = 4. 5 on the yelp meter. Would return and recommend. Round up to FIVE STARS.

    Cabbage Rolls rule!!!!

    We were seated fast and this about the only positive side of this review. We came many times before and guessing maybe management has changed. We weren't really greeted, our waiter dropped menus at our table and gave us a sign where to sit. Waiter was short with no small talk. We ordered borsch was was extremely under salted. Waiter was out of sight, no water refills unless asked for. The place is so freakin hot it's like stepping into a sauna. Come on fix this!!! Above all this place needs help!!! Won't be back unless they fix their service:(

    Pickled herring

    Decided to finally try this place out after wondering for a long time. Eastern European places are fairly rare, and I have had some tasty food traveling in that region, so I was looking forward to this! First things first - the place has a rustic, cozy kind of feel that reminded me of visiting my grandparents, with flowers and paintings and carpet and wooden chairs, and I quite liked that. The portions are also huge - if you come here, even just for one main course, it seems impossible you'd leave hungry. Service was a bit slow, but there was clearly only one person working front of house on a busy night, so it must have been tough for them; I think they may just have been short staffed that day. But in the end, a lot of the food tasted rather plain. I had the beef stroganoff, which was fine but didn't taste like much; and I shared perogies, sausage, and herring with my friend, and all of those were okay but not great. The sausage skin was a bit tough, but aside from that there wasn't anything wrong with the food - it just tasted plain. The one thing that really stood out to me was the strong, powerful horseradish mustard - it took me by surprise and I quite liked it as a condiment to the sausage! If you like meat-and-wheat style meals without heavy seasoning, I can imagine you might like this place a lot. But personally, I felt the food needed an extra kick of flavour - maybe more fat, or more spice or paprika or aromatics, or even more salt? Something's missing, in any case. Not bad, but nothing to write home about either.

    The food was good but they shorted me 6 Pierogi on my Dash order which was annoying. Might be better in person.

    I'm so glad we were able to book a table at Kozak Ukrainian Restaurant! We made the reservation…read morejust one day ahead and were a little worried we wouldn't be able to get a spot since it was a weekend and also during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Luckily, we got in! We ended up getting such a cute table tucked away in the back, away from everyone else. It honestly felt like we had our own little corner of the restaurant, which made the whole dinner feel extra cozy. Our waitress was also so sweet and friendly. She recommended some dishes for us, and she did such a great job because everything she suggested was so good! We ordered borscht, chicken skewers, potato and dill pierogies, lamb stew, and a Salo board. The borscht and chicken skewers were definitely our two favorites!The borscht was SO good and easily became our favorite dish of the night. The chicken skewers were also amazing and something we would absolutely order again. My husband really loved everything and said the food tasted like home, which made the meal even more special. My cousin and friend had never tried Ukrainian food before, so they were excited to try something new, and they ended up really loving it too! The restaurant itself is also so cute, with all the Ukrainian-inspired decor and cozy little details throughout the space. It definitely has such a cute vibe for dinner, and I'm really happy we got to experience it while we were in Gastown!

The server gave us excellent recommendations and built us a diverse and delicious set of dishes to enjoy. Our favorites included: 1. borscht with pork, eaten the Ukrainian way with some sourdough bread, and salted raw garlic 2. Sauerkraut which was a part of the pickled vegetable dish. It comes cold, which is how we like it, is a bit sweet, and doesn't have any of pungency of typical sauerkraut. 3. Duck and basil perogies. A little sweet, a little savory, and fully delicious.

We shared a beef borscht and the pork cabbage rolls (most of their mains are $15-$18)! I'd definitely recommend the cabbage rolls as the sauce was savoury and hearty; honestly both dishes were very filling as is characteristic of Ukrainian food. The borscht was more tomatoey than I'm used to which I didn't like as much (I usually have a more beet based one) but their sour cream was fresh and amazing quality. Also comes with some raw garlic and rye bread. I was definitely curious about their pastries and drinks so might come back another time for that!

The Sharlotka (apple cake) is a must have; seriously an apple pie has nothing on this. Honorable mention goes to the pistachio roll. The sausage bun and pork pyrizhky were a bit more on the dry side, while the apple turnover was a bit too strong on the cardamom for my taste. This was purely a bakery review, but they offer a cafe style sit down area to enjoy their savory restaurant menu. There's also a kid's area with toys, art and books to keep them entertained as well. Looking forward to returning to try more items.

    I love this restaurant. We have lived in Bellingham for a short while and will be moving soon; but…read moreeven when we do we will definitely be returning as we have had nothing but good experiences here. The food is prepared with quality ingredients that are loaded with flavor and it is is obvious that the preparation is thought out and that the owner is passionate about sharing her recipes to the world. Ambiance: Everything feels home-like and traditional. It's cozy and well taken care of. The service is always good. Everyone here is friendly and attentive. We are vegetarian and normally I don't just bring that up but I am especially impressed by the staff remembering this about us. A good example was this morning our waitress saw us look at the specials board for the soup and making our day by letting us know that they had forgotten to put up a second option available that didn't have meat. There are so many places that would not care to take that extra step to please their customers and would have a "take it or leave it" response to people with dietary concerns. Because this is so common these days- Magdalenas stands out. We have tried a lot of different dishes here and theyve all been good-; Turkish cilbur, mushroom sandwich, breakfast bowl, the entree salads, and their omelets are especially good (I've had bad luck with omelets not being good from other restaurants and Magdalenas made me a fan again). The soups are perfect for the Washington weather. I am not much of a sweets person but their scones are perfect, as well as the donuts, cinnamon rolls etc. As far as drinks- the seasonal winter tea hits the spot. Mint or lavender lemonades have been good during warmer days and various espresso based beverages to choose from. Though I don't normally drink, their mulled spiced wine sounds very good and I hope to make an exception to try it before we move from here.

    Fast, friendly service. We each ordered crepe #2 (with Sautéed veggies, mushrooms, fontina cheese,…read moregarlic, and yogurt with fresh dill, with buckwheat batter for $1 extra). Also, we shared a small order (6) of mushroom and cabbage pierogi. Our order came in less than 10 minutes. We loved the crepes. Though they were expensive ($18.50 each, +$1), they were unique and delicious. We enjoyed the pierogi, the taste was unlike any other we've had. But at $3 each, they were not worth the price to us. We thought they'd be a bit bigger and have more filling for that price. It's basically an $18 appetizer (and a small one at that). Our total lunch came to nearly $60 before tax and tip, yet we left a bit hungry. It was worth having the experience, but for me, the cost wasn't commensurate with the amount.
