Pierożki u Vincenta

After seeing and hearing about the amazing dumplings or should I say Pierogis, it was high time we went and tried some for ourself! This place was fairly quiet when we arrived but it had a Unilocal sticker of approval on the window so we went for it!
We ordered three different types of the dumplings to try — a meat and mushrooms (the most traditional), spinach and chicken and a beef and paprika number! With a few recommendations on the sauces from the waitress we went for some different oils to accompany each dish from garlic and butter to crispy onions.
I will never fail to surprise myself on how cheap it is for drink and food in Poland and this was no exception.
Back to the important part the dumplings — they are very similar texture to the dumplings you get at thai fusion restaurants. A thin layer of sticky pasty is the best way to describe them filled with meats and cheeses before being cooked. They were delicious either way with the traditional meat filling being the all round favourite! Nice enough restaurant tucked away in the Jewish Quarter — great service and a huge menu of dumplings to choose from!

Wow, was für ein unscheinbarer Laden. Von außen lässt sich nicht vermuten, was für Potential im Vincent steckt. Benannt ist das Restaurant nach Vincent van Gogh und mit Gemälden von ihm ausgestattet. Auf der Speisekarte gibt es ausschließlich Piroggen mit süßer und herzhafter Füllung. Ich bestellte zwei Gerichte, d.h. zwei unterschiedliche Füllungen und könnte jedes Gericht halbieren. So hatte ich die regulären 10 Piroggen, davon 5 mit Fleisch– und 5 mit Feta-​getrockneter Tomatefüllung. Entsprechend wurde der Preis halbiert. Am Ende habe ich mit Getränk 20 Plz bezahlt und bin satt und zufrieden in den kalten Abend hinaus spaziert, denn die Piroggen waren ihr Geld mehr als wert. Bissfeste Hülle und würzige Füllung, alles ganz frisch zubereitet. Einfach klasse!

Gute authentische Polnische Küche.
Frisch zubereitet und mit liebe auf den Teller gebracht. Kann es nur empfehlen hatten den Vegetarischen Mix Teller und es ist reichlich drauf waren ziemlich satt danach :)

Pretty good food for the price and you pay by the price which is fair. Sadly the tables in the dinner area are dirty.

3.5÷5 Solid stars.
Okay, who comes to Poland and don’t try Pierogis. I knew I wanted some, and it was my first time eating Pierogis. I have had similar Asian dumplings, but their sauce and the stuffing each side the pierogis were very tasting.
From the main train station, the walk to the restaurant was about 20 minutes.
Ordered:
1) Mushroom with meat: 3.5÷5 prob my favorite item on the table
2) Hell’s Dumpling chicken with red bean and chili peppers: ³⁄₅ eh, tasted very hispanic to me.
3) Zagloby: ³⁄₅ tasted like a breakfast burrito… hahah

Perfect stop for Perogis! We split three orders between two people — more than enough food, we came hungry. The dumplings with meat (simple with beef), hell’s (spicy), and the Sicilian (tasted like pizza) were all delicious. Service was slower but friendly.
Highly recommended!

I’ve only ever ordered their food delivered, but that food is excellent.
They have fantastic unusual pierogi fillings in generous portions for very low prices, as well as top quality versions of the classics like Ruskie.

Un rapport qualité-​prix exemplaire pour ces raviolis polonais. On reste interrogatif sur la déco Van Gogh… Bön introduction a la cuisine polonaise.

weather you’re in the mood for Italian, Mexican, or even Indian, you’re bound to find a perogi to satisfy your hunger. I had the spicy chicken which reminded me of a chicken fajita. My friend had the fried meat and salami. Very similar to a bolanasie sauce.
Sure, the restuarant is by no stretch of the word «fancy» and you may have to wait for a table. But let’s be honest, your here for the food. At that my fiends, is 4 star worthy.

Pierogi perfect and over twenty varieties. I had the Vincent, salami and beef. I also sampled the hell’s kiss, named so for its spicy filling.
If you are new to Pierogi, this place is sure not to disappoint. The staff are courteous and helpful too. The restaurant is a little cozy, so push in for a seat :-).
Get in for your pure Pierogi fix! #pierogi

We found this place via Unilocal and we ate dinner there tonight. We shared an order of the 30 vegetarian pierogies, which were a really nice variety and very tasty. The cost was only 40 PLN and the young woman working there was very sweet-​natured.

My second day in Krakow, and I’ve eaten here twice! The staff is really sweet and the pierogis are outstanding. My only suggestion to them is to be able to do a plate with several varieties so I could try them all.

If you want pierogies, this is the place. Close to 40 types available. All perfectly made with excellent texture and taste. 10 to a plate. Would like to see half orders, or a mix and match option for 2 people.

As I love pierogies, on my recent visit to Krakow I made sure to have some each day. These were my definite favourites. I tried the Russian and Cabbage & mushroom. Yummm!

I ate here my first night in Krakow and came back three more times because I liked it so much. Their pirogi might be pre-​frozen, but they hardly taste that way. This place offers more than 30 fillings, and while the cabbage/​mushroom was definitely my favorite, all 7 of the types I tried were quite good. The portions (10 pirogi per order) are huge, especially considering how cheap they are. During the week, they have good lunch sets that are an even better deal too. Kazimierz is the best neighborhood for good food in Krakow, and Pierożki u Vincenta is a solid choice in the center of it all.

We wanted to eat pirogi and just walked into this nice restaurant without checking the net or any travel books first, but it seems that it is already well know.
The walls are yellow and orange, there are wooden tables and chairs and two small rooms to eat. We were seated right away and got a menu (polish and english). I was especially happy when I saw that they serve buttermilk as a drink. Yes! There are also all common soft drinks and beer, of course.
We both ordered pirogi and after asking if we could mix it up we could both order two different kinds, so we had four kinds to share. We had some with garlic/​herbal butter and the others with sour cream as a dip which was really tasty.
We had the traditional piroki ruski (with mashed potatoes and onion), mountain cheese and potato, broccoli and feta cheese and dried tomatoes and mozzarella. They were all so good and I couldn’t decide which one was the best stuffing.
Plus we didn’t have to wait long for our food and it was steaming hot and fresh. Really good! The waitress was super friendly and helpful and we enjoyed our dinner there a lot. Plus it was pretty cheap, we paid around 15 € for all the food plus drinks.
They also have sweet pirogi but we were too full… plus you can call and then pick your food up to take away!

Bön aller, il manqué un avis français sur ce chef-d’oeuvre de la cuisine polonaise, alors je me lance. Je vous le dis direct, et je né vais pas aller dans la dentelle: Vous né pouvez pas visiter Krakow (Prononcez Cracouf) sans passer dans cet endroit magique.
Pour l’équivalent de 4 ou 5 euros en Zloty, vous pourrez vous offrir un choix incroyable de Pierogi, qui, une fois servis 10 minutes après votre commande, vous changerons votre perception de la cuisine polonaise ! Champignons viande, haricots rouges poulet, végétarien… Il y en a pour tous les gouts ! Tout est juste délicieux, pensez aussi à essayer les Russian Dumplings, qui sont des pierogis plongés dans de la friture.
Hormis cela, nous rentrons clairement dans l’univers de Vincent Van Gogh en mettant un pied ici. Plafond représentant sont univers célèbre en peinture, ici, tout est jaune et accompagné de tournesols. Les serveuses sont très à l’écoute, et la carte est en polonais ET en anglais ! C’est parfait pour né pas se retrouver à choisir n’importe quoi.
Allez y, un plat de 10 dumpings suffit amplement, n’hésitez pas aussi à partager vos plats !
Coup de coeur: Les champignons-​viande sont délicieux !
Coup dans le coeur: Les spéciales mozzarella sont pas top et très lourds !

Heaven. Im in love with this place. The pieorgis were perfect. Service great, wide selection of pieorgis, and great prices. I highly recommend this place.

I had a great experience at this restaurant yesterday. With over 30 types of pierogis to choose from there is most likely a flavor you haven’t tried yet. I has sweet cream and walnut for a sweet pierogi and Russian with bacon for a savory. Both delicious.
Portion sizes are excellent; you get 10 pierogis per choice.
The atmosphere is cozy and probably won’t be great for groups. All of the tables were full after our party sat down and a group of five who strolled in after us had to be turned away.
In addition to pierogis I had borsch. It was the drink and not soup version. Very good. I also tried the huckleberry pierogi and enjoyed it.
Overall I am rating the restaurant highly due to the quality of the food, quantity and for the great variety of choices. If you are around the castle this is only a 15 minute walk away and worth the trip.

I see that there are no English reviews of this place, so I’ll share my opinion. The pierogi here are really great and inexpensive. You get a big plate of them, with your choice of filling. They have a ton of options, both with meat and vegetarian. They even have large mixed plates for groups of 3 or so people with average hungry appetites. Overall it’s great and I highly recommend this little restaurant.

Pieroggen sind eine polnische Spezialität, hier handelt es sich um Teigtaschen, die mit allem möglichen gefüllt sein können. Dieses Lokal hat fast ausschließlich Teigtaschen auf der Karte und dieses Gericht haben sie perfektioniert. Es war wirklich so extrem lecker! Es gibt auch viele vegetarische Varianten (zB. mit Frischkäse, Kartoffeln, getrockneten Tomaten und Basilikum) oder in süß (mit Pflaumen und Zimt, Erdbeeren oder Heidelbeeren) und natürlich auch in fleischigen Varianten (zB. mit Huhn und Curry). Es war auch supergünstig, ein Teller Pieroggen mit 10 Stk. kostete nur 16 zly, also ca. 4 EUR.
Das Lokal ist ziemlich klein und daher kann es durchaus sein, dass man keinen Tisch mehr erwischt, bei uns war es bis auf den letzten Platz besetzt ein Großteil davon von Einheimischen :).
Die Kellnerin war sehr freundlich und konnte auch gut englisch, man kommt in Krakau mit englisch generell sehr gut durch ist mir aufgefallen. Ich kann jedenfalls einen Besuch hier von ganzem Herzen empfehlen!

Wer sie nicht kennt, die polnischen Pieroggen, der kann sich einfach nicht vorstellen was die Polen unter Lebensqualität verstehen und warum es sich überhaupt lohnt nach Polen zu fahren. Pierozki (lese: Pieroschky) wurden zu Legende, ähnlich wie Kazimierz — das ehemalige alte jüdische Viertel fern vom Rummel auf und um den Markplatz. Mir schmeckte am besten die Sorte mit Käse, gerösteten Zwiebeln und Kartoffelmehl.
Es war fantastisch!!!
