For such a little cafe tucked into a plaza with no signage, it is amazing. The borsch soup would make my Ukrainian grandmother proud. It's all handmade with a very welcome atmosphere decorated to feel like a home. Maybe it's the nostalgia in me, but this place is heartwarming.

I noticed Teremok Cafe.Curious, I walked in and immediately knew I had found something. The aroma of borscht filled the small space. I ordered borscht and potato and onion perogies--my first experience of either--and enjoyed a memorable lunch. Their borscht was rich and flavourful, a truly wonderful bowl of soup. My new favourite soup. I've since returned and have recommended this little gem to anyone I know who enjoys great food.

There is an assortment of authentic dishes you can choose from, dine-in or take-out and you can tell it is all homemade. We decided to eat in and had their borscht, fresh perogies, and pelmeni. A definite must try!

Loved the ambience of this place...was quite cozy. Ordered Borsch (soup), Perogi and crepe. Borsch was a standout (its made by Galina family everyday). Have tried Perogi at multiple places, but it was best here (again made by Galina family). Thank you Galina for hosting us. Definitely recommend to others.

She had everything you need breakfast, lunch and dinner. She makes them all in house, and even makes frozen portions if needed for large bulk orders. The service is fast, and friendly. I would eat here everyday if I could.Vegetarian options: Has variety of vegetarian menu options.Kid friendliness: Has kids chairs and even some toys.
