AUTHENTIC, HANDMADE PIEROGI.

“It starts with butter, more than you think is necessary, that sits like an ice cap slowly melting in the pan. Next come the sliced onions, their sting dulled by fat and heat. A liberal shake of salt draws out flavor, which is then concentrated back into each wilted thread of onion. This is how pierogi ruskie begin at Pierozek, a new Polish restaurant in Greenpoint, Brooklyn.”

Pierozek is home to the most authentic handmade Polish Pierogi in New York. Our mission is to bring the beloved delicacy to our hometown in New York and introduce this doughy goodness to those who have never experienced it before. 

Located in Greenpoint, Brooklyn aka “Little Poland”, our setting is ideal for those who love Polish cuisine and those that have yet to discover it. From classic Ruskie (Potato & Cheese) and Sauerkraut & Mushroom to Meat Pierogi, Pierozek also offers a modern take on old-world flavors, including Jalapeño Pierogi and the newly added, Murray’s Cheese Pierogi. Specializing in Pierogi, Pierozek also offers an array of delectable Polish dishes including Red Borscht, Croquettes, and Gołąbki (Stuffed Cabbage). 

Offering indoor and outdoor dining, the modern, yet comfortable decor is influenced by the Polish Folk Art movement of the 1960s and 70s and pays tribute to Poland through art and ceramics displayed on exposed brick and white marble. 

We look forward to welcoming you! Smacznego!

THE NEW YORK TIMES

“The key to Pierozek’s long-term success may be its synchronization of past and present. The Kucharskis have an eye for what works: Traditional art and Polish ceramics are stylishly displayed on exposed brick and white marble. The food is prepared by an all-women staff of experienced pierogi-makers.But ultimately, it comes down to the dumplings.”

CBS NEW YORK

“Roughly 2,000 pierogi are handmade daily at Pierozek, a Brooklyn restaurant whose name translates to “little pierogi.” Such output is made possible by a team of up to ten women from Poland. In the kitchen each day, they chat in Polish as they roll and fill the pierogi dough, using techniques learned from parents and grandparents back home.”

THE NEW YORK TIMES

“Their excellent half-moon boiled dumplings are filled with spinach, potato and cheese; mushrooms and sauerkraut; or pork, and will be served topped with sautéed onions. Borscht with little dumplings and sweet pierogi will also be on the menu.”

FOX 5 NEW YORK

“Radek routinely visits his staff in the kitchen (and basement below) to ensure his recipes of flour, dough, butter, meat, sauerkraut, mushrooms, potato, cheese and a top secret cocktail of spices remain unchanged, but praises the pierogi—he believes made this authentically nowhere else in the city—for its simplicity.”
