  • Visiting from Alberta, pierogi's are a big thing. Grocery stores are filled with a multitude of pierogis, Ukrainian churches often have pierogi nights, and most weekend markets have stalls that are selling freshly made pierogis. I was hesitant to eat here because I knew it would be difficult to gauge the target audience and it would be difficult to not compare my experience to local cuisine. So, with that caveat, I hope I am honest and fair with my review. The decor is nice. The tables and chairs are pretty standard fare and there is a bar with 4 or 5 stools. There's a lot of wood and brick and interesting simulated gas lamps over the bar and many of the tables. We came at night and the lamps provide very warm lighting, so the space was dim and very cozy. Service was good. We came in 10 minutes before they closed and they happily served us and even took in stride the annoying questions from my mate about getting a hamburger. The food came quick (maybe too quick) and we were in and out within fifteen minutes. I also noticed that in the short time we were there, they had 3 pickup orders. Their beer list was short with 6 or 7 options, but all were local craft beers, which always pleases me. If we had more time, perhaps we would have stayed for a few. The menu has 16 different pierogi offerings; Baba's Classic which is pierogies with caramelized and green onions, cheddar and sour cream. The other offerings take that basic pierogi and 'load' it with a diverse list of ingredients. truffle, mushroom, duck, lobster, crab, bacon, butter chicken, and so on. If you're looking for a pierogi 'experience', then you can get it here. Prices range from the Baba's Classic ($8) up to $16. We had the classic and the Smoking Pig Roast (BBQ pulled pork, bacon, and chorizo). Sadly, this is where it all fell apart for me. The pierogies were decent but quite salty, and the pulled pork, bacon, and chorizo were all hugely salty and as a result, almost inedible. Sadly, I wish my experience was better. The menu looks quite intriguing and the beer is good enough for me to want to hang out and nibble at a few different types. Baba's for $8, would be great if the pierogies were great. Smoking Pig Roast for $14 felt like highway robbery. Sorry, Loaded Pierogi, I can't see returning to give this another try.
