"We recently visited a cozy restaurant in the center of Dortmund serving traditional Ukrainian cuisine The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with a nice location and friendly service. Prices are slightly above average, but totally worth it for the quality you get. We ordered borscht, solyanka, khachapuri, and for dessert - honey cake and Napoleon. Later we even tried their syrnyky via delivery - still fresh and delicious!"

"I recently had the pleasure of having lunch at this restaurant and I was extremely impressed by their authentic and delicious cuisine. This little hidden gem offers a unique culinary experience, with expertly prepared traditional Ukrainian dishes. The cozy and welcoming atmosphere of the restaurant immediately caught my attention. The staff was extremely friendly and attentive. Speaking of the dishes, I can only say that they were delightful! I highly recommend the "Borschtsch with Pompushki" soup, a dish that completely won over my taste buds. The soup was rich in flavor and incredibly satisfying. The contrast between the slightly tangy taste of the beetroot and the sweetness of the Pompushki, traditional dumplings, was perfect. It was an explosion of flavors in every spoonful, and I can't wait to come back and savor it again. The variety in the menu was extensive, offering options for all tastes. It's a perfect place to try authentic Ukrainian delicacies and discover the genuine flavors of this charming cuisine."

"One amongst the best Café one can find in Dortmund. I had been here for breakfast and I must really recommend this place for their pancakes. It is not too pricey for their offerings. The ambience is cozy enough and it can be a good place for one to go on a date."

"I almost cried eating their cherry varenyky (dumplings), they were just like the ones my grandma used to make when I was a child. Also, the orange juice espresso is to die for. Overall, everything is on the pricier side, but it was so good, that I didn’t even care. Highly recommend! (especially to all Ukrainians out there)"

"Great coffee and traditional Ukrainian cakes! I was surprised to find this type of cuisine in Dortmund. The best thing we had was the egg, cheese and salmon bread. Very delicious! Coffee was served very stylish and they had many different areas to sit in."
