Before the ownership scandal of 2005, Pel'meni would have received 5 stars. The dumplings are perfectly seasoned reasonably priced amazing morsels of goodness. Back then you were allotted unlimited sour cream, a soda, and of course your 20 dumplings for $5. The spicy dumplings were a bi or tri weekly meal for quite a while. However now that the new owner has taken over, they now charge extra for soda,have unpredictable hours, sometimes just don't have potato dumplings, and (most insulting) I found a stray beef dumpling in my potato. Ack. I may never return.
