Having been born and raised in Poland I’m always on the hunt for a good Eastern European restaurant, and let me tell you this place didn’t disappoint! Everything from Żurek (rye soup), Schabowy (pork schnitzel) to Golabki (cabbage rolls) were amazing and tasted really authentic! Whoever cooks here knows Polish cuisine very well. They also serve Żywiec if you want to try one of our staple Polish beers. We will definitely be back!

Unreal how amazing this place is. I stopped here because I wanted a place that reminded me of the eclectic food of Chicago and WOW, I was blow away! Infused vodkas made by the owner (Jasmine (not tea) was my favorite), pickled herring, horseradish beets, roast duck cooked beyond the limits of understanding that I was able to EAT THE BONES, honey beer… this place is an absolute MUST if you live anywhere near Denver! I have no doubt that IF you love Eastern European food you will love this place! Thank you so much for taking me home!

What a wonderful discovery here in Colorado! The quality is superb with flavors that really pop. We tend to get the platter for 2 as it is hard to choose just one thing! The ribs, pierogies, soups, flavored vodkas, stuffed cabbage, potato pancakes… are all must haves. Also the Bigos is phenomenal! Can’t wait for our next meal here.

We love love love this place. Brings me back to ky childhood food growing up in a Polish family. Paris was a fantastic server! Stated with Placki (potato pancake) then of course the dinner for 2 which is a taste of everything. Switched the smoked kielbasa with the white keilbasa boiled of course. Desert Pączki jelly filled Polish donut. Everything is authentic and made in house excellent evening!

The food here is phenomenal! It brought me right back to my childhood when my Polish grandfather would make his own horseradish and sauerkraut from scratch. The kielbasa and pierogis were excellent. A bit pricey, but well worth it! I will be back! Highly recommend.

dzięki! The food is truly amazing and the wait staff is very friendly and helpful. If you like the Bavarian and polish side of Europe, these dishes will take you right back there! The dining room is casual so it is very inviting for anyone and everyone, and the menu is varied to suit any taste! All dishes are made in-house, including the amazing sauerkraut, they even have sweet cabbage which I completely planned on trying next time. If you've ever wondered about Eastern European and Polish food, or have any polish friends that wants to dive into the Heritage, this is an excellent place to try!

It was our first time visiting and we were more than happy… our waitress Alaina was so friendly and welcoming, recommended some amazing dishes and it did not disappoint. The service was great, food was amazing and we will for sure be back.. some very happy customers 😊😊

Most delicious food in area. Highly recommend eating here.

My husband and I were on vacation in the Denver area and were overjoyed to find this restaurant! Whether you love polish food or have never had it, you must try this place. It’s a beautiful restaurant with great service and the food…absolutely incredible. All the ingredients are made from scratch. We had the beet soup and taste of Poland dinner. We would order anything from Cracovia again!! Simply amazing!

Loved the pickle soup I ordered. I also tried beet soup my husband ordered, it was delicious. Homemade pierogi and the placki were good. For the dessert my husband and I shared kremowka which was amazing. Whenever you are in Denver and you want to try homemade food, you should try this place.

This is one place I hope makes it through the pandemic. Menu has a wide variety of choices and we’ve never had a disappointing meal here. The owner distill’s his own vodka too and has at least 40-50 flavors to choose from. Great place for Polish comfort food!

Have never tried Polish food- it was a fun experience! The kielbasa with spicy mustard and rib was my favorite. Pierogis were good too. The custard dessert was delish! Helpful, friendly staff!

This restaurant is definitely a place to check out. It was very busy, but the hostess was still able to get my party of 4 seated right away. Our server was very polite and attentive. There was a mix up with our appetizer, but he got it resolved right away and even comped it on our bill. The food is good and very authentic. My only complaint was the ribs I got were a little cold in places and dried out almost as if they were reheated. Also this place is a little pricey between the 4 of us we spent $200.

Came here as a recommendation from a coworker and I am sure glad I did. Amazing food!! When I come to town I make it a point to come here for dinner. Even if it is snowing on Labor Day weekend... Attached photos are from my two visit.

We have been going to Cracovia for a while and it has become one of our favorite restaurants. The interior is a bit quirky and out of date but is inviting, quiet, and clean. The food is incredible, and the service is excellent. We have tried many things on the menu including the Sausage Sampler, Herring Salad, Pierogi (both as a main course and as an app), Golabki (classic stuffed cabbage), Schabowy (pork chop), Golonka (Pork joint), and a few others. All of the food is fresh, well plated, perfectly seasoned, and well balanced. Serving sizes range from reasonable to large. My favorites are the Golabki and Schabowy but everything I have had is outstanding and unique. Cracovia is definitely a “comfort food” sort of place. For dessert we have had the Polish donut and apple pie. Both are excellent and not too sweet. The bar is also excellent with a great selection of Polish and domestic beers. And fantastic martinis (vodka of course). I recommend the Warka Strong beer. Cracovia is a really comfortable and reliable restaurant. As stated above it is not loud like so many other places. So, a group can have a conversation without shouting. I highly recommend Cracovia as a place to have hearty meals in a pleasant atmosphere without spending a fortune.

Come eat this food. We loved it. We had been driving passed it on Wadsworth for years and finally decided yo give it a try and I'm so glad we did. So authentic and the wait staff knows their stuff. They answered questions and recommended food which did not disappoint. We also got desert to go because, well we had to try it. Come eat this food.

Haven’t had Polish food in YEARS . Am visiting Denver from KC and decided to see if there were any polish restaurants here. I was not disappointed. The place itself is very cute , our server was quick and on it . And the food of course was delicious. Ordered the house bread and butter , the pickle soup , pierogis , gołabki , potato pancakes and the polish pasta . Highly recommend.

My husband and I ate there last night (11/19/23) and our experience was wonderful! My husband had never tried Polish food so we each got the 'Taste of Poland' entree and he loved it! I enjoyed my meal and it reminded me of the amazing Polish food back in NYC and some of what my grandmother had made long ago. The service was impeccable and the surroundings were warm and calm. I made this dining experience for my husband's birthday and he felt incredibly spoiled!

This place provides awesome service and yummy menu. One of the best spot ever. The food came out rapidly and the prices are inexpensive. Highly recommended.

Wow!! So delicious. Got perogis, pickle and sauerkraut soups, and it was amazing. Will be back for more!!

Fun spot with Polish relatives. Daughter-in-law is Polish. Kids are familiar with Polish food. Great spot for us all. She helped navigate the menu. Seventy flavors of vodka provided an ample selection. Hits were horseradish and persimmon. Authentic Polish dishes. Portions are huge. Service is quick and friendly.

We're not familiar with Polish food at all so we asked for recommendation on everything. Food/Taste/Flavor: 4/5 - some dishes didn't quite hit the mark but others were spectacular Zurek was tongue cuttingly sour but addicting. The first taste was a bit of a shock but you want to come back for more bites Gulasz was familiar in taste and reminds us more of a curry flavor with the spices. The mashed potatoes and caramelized onions was a great pairing in texture The Taste of Poland with 3 pierogi (one of each filling), golabki (cabbage roll), krokiet (breaded and fried crepe) with ground pork, link of kielbasa (polish sausage), one pork rib, glass of kompot (fresh fruit juice), and side of beets. The pierogi reminds us of Indian samosas. The cheese and potato was creamy and makes you salivate. The other two were pretty good as well but outshined by the first. We got the cabbage roll with both sauces and it was delicious! The roll itself is juicy with the tomato sauce adding a tartness and the creamy mushroom sauce adds a earthiness and texture. We would recommend the mushroom sauce 100%. The krokiet is fried really well and the skin is so yummy. The inside was similar to the pierogi filling. The sausage is super smokey but has a slight grainy texture. The pork rib wasn't special nor was it fall off the bone. The fruit juice was interesting and made us think of cinnamon and apples. We would recommend the fried cheese and potato pierogi and golabki out of these items we tried. However, it was really fun trying all the flavors and texture on this tasting platter Ambience: 5/5 - cultural music and good vibes. The decorations are quite dark which was a bit odd since it was so bright outside still Service: 5/5 - super friendly and willing to chat. Gave us great recommendations and description of the food Value for price: 2/5 - on the more expensive side but some really delicious food. Great to try but would be hesitant to come back due to cost

This place is a gem!!! You will not be disappointed once you try delicious Polish bread!!

amazing home cooked food and friendly service. Makes me want to go back to Poland!

Absolutely delishous polish food! 10/10 can't wait to come back!

Polish food at this location - great. very appetizing. the service here is outstanding. the place has a great atmosphere. reminds me of a cafe in chicago i loved to visit.

It was good but a little pricey compared to similar places. 3 dollars extra to fry pierogis seems excessive.

Delicious everything! All the dishes we tried were clearly house made and wonderful. Friendly service too! Check out the crazy list of infused vodkas that the owner makes himself!

First time trying Polish food. It was super delicious. Gosia was super nice to everyone. Definitely try the Cracovia Mimosa and Limoncello. The Pork Schabowy with mushrooms gravy was amazing.

What a great experience, friendly staff and great authentic European food.Being from Europe myself its always great to bring back some childhood memories through a good food. I would suggest a little more spices in the dishes since we in Europe love a little more flavorful dishes but please do not make this stop you. Go and try it all. And wonderful desserts drinks 🍹. We will be back soon.

Great food and excellent service. The beet soup was sweet and creamy, and the dinner spread was delicious all around. Their mustard stands out with their kielbasa, and we loved their sauerkraut pierogi.

Really delicious Polish food in an unassuming strip mall. This is the closest I have felt to dining in Eastern Europe since, well, I was in Eastern Europe! Really eclectic selection of food and drinks that you won't find anywhere else!

Ambiance was good. Staff was great and safe with covid. Food was full of flavor.

Just went for dinner couple weeks ago and once again I ordered my favorite: Hunters Stew. New photos is one reason I keep returning, all restaurants bathrooms should strive to be this clean. It gives me piece of mind eating there. Had a wonderful dinner. Potato onion pancakes with goulash and mushroom sauce plus grated beet-horseradish.(eat on pancake) fantastic. Desert apple cake gone, tried chocolate cake, made in house, so good wife took picture. BIG PLUS, RESTROOM SPOTLESS!!!!!

I LOVE this place! The food was incredible as well as the staff. Our waitress was named Julia and she was on top of everything. The cook/manager, Juttah, is amazing. She came out and talked to my husband and I about her life in Germany/ the states, as well as just general fun conversation. She also let us try many of the restaurant’s amazing flavored vodkas. I cannot take straight shots for the life of me, but whatever the owner does to this vodka, it goes down so smoothly! I left with two bottles (Multifruit & Pickle). They actually have over 70 different flavors which I’ve posted with this review. I’ll definitely be back to buy more of their liquor. We 100% are going back for dessert and drinks sometime soon. Cracovia is our new favorite European restaurant ☺️

I really liked this place, I plan on going back in n the future. The potato pancakes and perogies were delicious.

We started with some Zurek which I could literally eat gallons of! Next we sampled their pierogi, cabbage rolls, krokiet and sauces. Then came the kielbasa with ribs and potatoes. Every bite was flavorful and cooked to perfection, the waiter was on point the whole time and the beer was cold and refreshing.

The best Golabki (stuffed cabbage) I've ever had. The mushroom sauce is delicate creamy!

I have slowly eaten my way through the menu. All but one, since I am not a fan of that dish. Not a bad meal yet! Not a bad drink for that matter. ENJOY!

My sister & I really enjoyed the atmosphere. Very clean everyone was very nice. You get amazing good food lots of it too. They definitely take care of you. I well go back.

My family always made Polish food like gołąbki and kielbasa for holiday meals. The food here is amazing and is just like grandma and grandpa used to make. The selection of Polish beer is excellent too.

Excellent food, very attentive and pleasant staff!

An outdated interior, the bathrooms were out of order while we were here. The food although the dishes are authentic polish dishes the execution of the dish was not the best this being the opinion of my wife who grew up in Poland.

As a polish man from Chicago, this is as good as it gets in Denver. Great food and selection. Highly recommend

Super cute, delicious food and drinks, and friendly staff.

Always good! Try the platters!

Such good food!!! If you go home hungry , it's your own damn fault ! Seriously we love this place.

I'm from Michigan and I come from 2 polish families and it was so nice to taste the food I grew up on! Make sure you try their desserts!!! 🤤🤤

Fine location for tasty polish food. Super delicious. I will be back with my friends.

Delicious food and great service. BEWARE there is an additional COVID charge. It’s to recover costs from pandemic. No sign is posted about it, but our waiter offered to remove it. We declined just wish I would of known about it ahead of time.

Ok spot for delicious polish food. super savory. i'll return with my relatives. menu is similar to a restaurant in el paso i liked.

Best Polish restaurant in the Denver area! Highly recommend. You won't be disappointed. Delicious large hearty meals.

Food was very tasteful lots of flavor I'm planning on going back there when they have in house dining

Amazing food.

Love this place but who ever just answered the phone when I asked if they would possibly be open on Christmas Eve. Stated " I don't know, ask your governor." Would have been glad to give them my take out or dine in.... Not now.

I've never had Polish food before. Boy have I missed out on such amazing food. And don't forget the dessert. It's to die for.

Authentic food with a great atmosphere

Incredible! It's a real gem of a "mom and pop" type restaurant. The pickle soup changed my life. You wouldn't think it was as great as it is, but trust me... The perogies are amazing, the staff is friendly, and the atmosphere is perfect for close conversation or rowdy celebrating. It's a little spendier than a chain restaurant, but ABSOLUTELY worth it!

Real deal polish food that never disappoints. The beet soup is outstanding, and the kielbasa platter is one of my favorite dishes. Great selection of polish beers and vodkas as well

We unreservedly loved our visit. We had the pickle soup (get through the sour and it's really good), and the creamy and subtle red beet soup. The herring salad in oil is creamy and not overly salty or sweet. My Placek (two potato pancakes, with goulash between) was very good. We also had the cucumber salad, a bunch of drinks, .... Unfortunately we are now full and will take much to go home. My wife will rave about the Golabki (cabbage rolls) in her own review - and she is not even Eastern European but rather Texan. We'll definitely be back.

I'd give it more than 5 stars if possible.
