A must try place for authentic Polish food delights in the 'Little Poland' of New York. On my recent visit to Karczma, I was greeted by the courteous staff with their lovely accents and the waitress clad in traditional attire had me seated at a quiet wooden booth, past the lively bar, all of which evoked a quaint European village vibe. As I perused the menu under the flickering candlelight that was placed over a colorful handwoven placemat, I couldn't have experienced a more homely feeling out in the city on a rainy night. With a little guidance from the waitress, it felt proper to sample the 'Plate of Polish Specialties' on my first visit. The serving was plentiful and a pleasure to taste. The Polish kielbasa and the stuffed cabbage were my favorites. The boiled pierogis were a traditional treat while the hunter's stew was flavorful and unique. There was enough food left to take home which provided the perfect opportunity to pair it with a hilarious Polish flick such as 'The Taming of the Shrewd', set in the alluring Polish countryside only to be enhanced by the colorful and beautifully embroided traditional clothing worn by the local folk. There's also a heartwarming documentary film and a Google online exhibition of a 'good maharajah' and his many young Polish guests tucked away in safety for the history buff. I would highly recommend a stop over at Karczma to satisfy your Polish food cravings or for those who are curious to get their first bite. Enjoy your meal or, as they say in Polish - Smacznego!

Great. Keilbasa was fire. Pickle soup went dummy mode. Would definitely return. Relatively cheap too. Big portions n such. Potato's smakt

Small details add up. B grade from NYCHD. Owner hiding not participating..Waiters doing slow job .It is becoming a tourist trap.Go to Ridgewood. Hetman
We ordered for 3 people, soup flaki, it was stinky, and disgusting. I make it at home, I am Polish, so I know how it supposed to taste like. Potato pancakes were awful, thick and tasteless. Pork chops were not good either. Waiter was friendly, but food was below standard and did not taste fresh. To end this review, we all ended up with stomach pains and indigestion. I would not recommend

I got the specialties platter, which was very good. My boyfriend got the pork cutlet. Also had potato pancakes for a starter. Not everything was a homerun, but it was good and the price was appropriate. Service and atmosphere were great. It was a perfect stop after a long day of walking in the cold.
I would crawl through a mile of broken glass for a thimbleful of their White Borscht.

The most ethnically correct and delicious polish food in the area if not the whole NYC.
