U Gazdy Polish - Wood Dale

Great Polish food. eating tasteful and beer is excellent! atmosphere makes fun. a must!

Today and a week ago, my option was (the same)… the polish plate. The sausage is one of the best, cabbage roll covered by mushroom sauce indescriptible. Everything taste fresh. If you are in the area and want to explore something new… visit this restaurant, you won’t regret it!!!

Excellent variety of polish comfort food.Rabbit,Polish duck and shnitzel are my favorite. Great selection of beer. Czechvar and Carlsberg on tap.

Properly authentic. From the patrons to the beer. If you don’t know where to start on the menu, go with the Polish platter. So glad the chef allowed me to order it outside of lunch because it was delicious.

Overall, the meal and experience was so-so. My family and I recently dined here. We arrived right when they opened. As far as wait staff: they were good; semi-attentive. I will say we did not get or was asked for any drink refills during our dining time. All but one person at our table had the highlander-style potato pancake (so, potato pancake with goulash). The potato pancake was tough and without flavor really…it was really difficult to cut through it ironically…and the goulash was bland as well; really not much flavor for a stew. My portion didn’t have much meat in it either. The worst part was the food was lukewarm. Same thing with our soups: they really weren’t that hot. Perhaps, all would have been better if it was hotter. Then, someone else at our table got a chicken cutlet and it could have been cooked a bit longer. The edges were ok but the center wasn’t as done. I’m not sure but it seems some of the items were already prepared and then reheated…which for some of those items is understandable but ensure food is up to temp before serving. We also had beer from the tap, and it was rather flat and not ice cold as I expected. I will say though the bread and spread was delicious and the cold salmon app was good as well. But those two good items isn’t enough to convince me to come back. I will say that I was expecting a lot more from this restaurant. If you’re new to Polish cuisine, I suppose this place can be a good start. However, if you’ve been to Poland and/or know Polish food well, I think this place might be a disappointment to you.
