   One of the worst meals I’ve ever had on uber eats . The beef stroganoff was completely dry, the beef was like biting on rubber. The broth itself was extremely sweet which is unusual for a beef stroganoff so I can only Assume sugar or honey has been added ? The onion and potato dumplings were cooked right as far as the dough goes but extremely under seasoned and tasted like biting into a boiled potato. The hetman style soup didn’t make any sense at all it was like drinking a hot negroni with chorizo. I am curious if you are tasting your food before serving it or Sunday’s are the days where you send all the dry leftovers from Saturday night ? I can’t believe how many good reviews this place has I understand you’re a small business but surely you have to maintain some kind of standard, I hope I’ve just caught your food on a bad day but please taste your food before serving. Ukrainian food should be hearty not sweet, dry and bland

   I’ve ordered from this place online and am blown away by how authentic and delicious the food is. If you’re looking for real, homemade-style Ukrainian food, this is hands down one of the best places you can find. The flavours are rich and hearty and full of that comforting, home-cooked feel that’s often hard to find when ordering online. The attention to detail goes beyond just the food. The packaging is always incredibly tight, neat, and secure, ensuring everything arrives fresh and in perfect condition. They care about the customer experience from start to finish. Some standout dishes for me include the dumplings (vareniki), the cabbage rolls, and the borscht. Everything tastes like it’s made with love and with high-quality ingredients. Portions are generous too, which is always a plus! Ordering online has been smooth and hassle-free every time. The food arrives quickly and is still hot. I genuinely can’t recommend this place enough. It’s a true gem for anyone craving authentic Eastern European comfort food. Food quality: 10/10 Service and packaging: 10/10 Overall experience: Excellent. Thank you so much!

   I ordered cottage cheese pancakes with sour cream, stuffed cabbage leaves, Olivier salad, and bread. Only the sour cream and bread were fresh. The Olivier salad was more like a mayonnaise soup—it had way too much mayo (like mayo soup) and tasted like it was washed and then covered in mayonnaise again to hide that it was old. The stuffed cabbage was falling apart. The rice and filling tasted like it was recooked, definitely made at least three days ago. I tried one forkful, and the meat was stinky and clearly old. The pancakes also tasted reheated and stale. This food was unsafe to eat—I had to throw it all in the bin. After a long flight, I expected fresh meals but was deeply disappointed. This quality is unacceptable, and I cannot recommend this restaurant for delivery.

   Every dish tastes awesome and really quick for delivery services. One of the most appetising chilli sauce! Portion is huge. Packaging for delivery is paper based so likely to soak and break though, one thing to bear in mind..

   I wish I lived closer to this place as I would become a frequent client. Unfortunetly, the delivery fee is quite high via Deliveroo app. Their Olivie salad was so delicious that I ate it right away without even taking a picture. And here’s a question about the homemade chicken soup: all the dill bunches in the kitchen were over? There was so little dill in the broth that it looked pathetic. The taste was okay, nothing special at all. I also ordered the Greek salad, which was pretty average. I hope it’s only these two dishes that give rise to mixed feelings. Keen on trying other food including desserts.

   Pickle platter was delicious (especially the pickled tomatoes), as was shuba and poppy-seed pancakes. Potato cakes had absorbed a bit too much sauce but the sauce itself was good. Olivier is decent. Chebureki was really good too!
