"A plate of pierogies with sour cream and caramelized onions is the essential order — they're made in house and the restaurant goes through a lot of them, so you know they're gonna be fresh."

Lawrence Weibman

"You can mix pierogie varieties to create your own sampler but I enjoy the slightly spicy potato because it contrasts the sweetness of the cheese blintze with raspberry sauce I always order."

Erin Mosbaugh

"One of my most favorite dumplings goes by a different name, however, and it is the Veselka short rib pierogi. A Veselka devotee to the core I could rhapsodize for hours about the 24-hour East Village Ukranian diner."

Elizabeth Sabol-Jones

"Pierogi paradise."

Tara Mahadevan

"The cheese pierogi, filled with farmer's cheese, is sweet, the texture slightly lumpy and cottage cheese-like; the potato pierogi is creamy and slightly savory. Both pierogies pair well with the apple sauce."

"Fill your belly nicely with their fried perogis after a hard night of partying."

Dan Q. Dao

"Make a full meal of the gut-sticking savory options including short rib, arugula–goat-cheese and spinach and cream."

"The city’s most famous pierogies."
