    We’ve been wanting to come here for months and were not disappointed. The service was outstanding and all staff were kind and accommodating. The food was absolutely fantastic (we got the Khachapuri and Babcia Platter) and the House Flight was very tasty. Overall a great visit; we will be back!

    Fantastic experience! Definitely my boyfriend and I’s go to date night spot! Perfect for dinner, light appetizers, just drinks or all of the above! The Medovik (honey cake) was delicious. Best drinks are Borschtini if you like savory and salty, Romashky Sour for light and floral, and Cherry Caipiroska if you like sweet with a little bit of a kick. The pierogis are fantastic I definitely recommend getting the works when you go. Great ambience, great service, and amazing food. 11/10

    We took my mother to Wodka Bar on Mother's Day. I thought it would be a treat for her since she imigrated from Poland and would recognize many of the dishes. We made the trip from Dayton and it was well worth the drive. We can't say enough good things about our experience. The service was great. The drinks and food were excellent! We thought the honey cake is to die for. The outside and inside of the restaurant reminded us of being in Europe. The place is small so I would recommend reservations. And, we love the name of the first drink on the menu.

    The restaurant only has a 3-4 tables, so we sat outside. The weather was good but the noise from the locals cruising with their radios turned up was quite disruptive.

    Had a reso for a bday celebration. For my bf and I and friends wanted to join…no way! There were empty seats but we were told that they were reserved w/resos so our friends left and went next door. We ordered a vodka flight which is always a fun thing to do and delish. We also ordered food…a kielbasa bowl that said it had roasted rib meat in it but was really a bed of mashed potatoes and sauerkraut w/one sausage cut into bite sized chunks. The sausage was tasty but my bf missed the “rib@ that wasn’t there. We told our server and they couldn’t have cared less and wouldn’t even acknowledge this,just asked if we wanted to order more! My stuffed cabbage roll was good but the sauce on top was sweet like canned tomato soup….won’t be doing that again. Maybe try the Pierogies …I’ve heard good things but haven’t tried. The vodka is yummy tho so all in all a fun experience.
