Brunch is excellent. The Fish Board has very good smoked and cured fish, including salmon, sable, trout, and herring. French toast made from great challah and really creamy and crispy. Mmm.
Justin TuretskyFebruary 17, 2013This is not veselka. Don't be fooled. It is delicious though and fair prices...it's more about "reductions" and "risotto" than comforting high-end Ukrainian diner food like the original.
Different menu than the original location, but you can't go wrong with the pierogi and truffle fries. Never crowded, so good for groups!
AJWeissFebruary 10, 2013I love food. It takes a lot for me to not clean my plate. I ate one bite of their beet burger and stopped eating. Even a far cry from the 6/10 original Veselka.
The best house salid. Baby arugula, walnuts, bacon bits, pimentos, maple syrup in vinigarette, it's a meal in itself..
Perfect place to be on a rainy Tuesday night. Comfort food and a cozy banquette, mushrooms julienne to start, then it looks like it is going to be a pierogi kinda night !!
Laura ChinMarch 4, 2012Kielbasa burger is so good. Be sure to top it with tons of sautéed onions and their house mustard
Jourdan LawlorFebruary 11, 2012Don't leave without trying the Alchemia cocoa nib infused vodka, it's one of the best on their list
Karlsson's VodkaAugust 14, 2012Try the Aged-Old Fashion cocktail - Barrel aged Karlsson's Gold Vodka, angostura bitters, whiskey bitters, and maple syrup
Irving FainFebruary 26, 2012Corn beef hash w/ poached egg is excellent. Can't go wrong with French toast either
LaurenFebruary 19, 2012Beet burger was very good. Fries really good but Bloody Mary had waaaay too much black pepper and no horseradish.
Clare OndreyDecember 4, 2011Great for brunch. Get the house bloody mary and the French toast. Amazing.
I sometimes wake at two in the morning craving the egg noodles from here. It's a major issue for me.
Jason HaasFebruary 28, 2013There's a ridiculous design flaw in the men's WC which make the toilet inaccessible.

Kate RitchieFebruary 4, 2012Food is good, but service is slow. Do not go if you are in a rush (aka trying to make a movie @ Landmark). Stick with the original Veselka got quality.
