First time here and first time having pel'mini, which Google describes as Russian dumplings that are typically served with sour cream or butter. Here you can choose beef or potato or a mix of both, with butter, sour cream, cilantro, yellow curry powder, or Sweet Chili sauce, or The Works, which is all of the above. You walk up to an order window in hallway behind the bar, place and pay for your order. The steamed dumplings are ready fairly quickly if the place isn't busy, which it wasn't at 3:30 on the Saturday afternoon I came in. I waited a minute for my order. Then went into the dining room to enjoy them. They were great as is, but I can see the desire to add butter or sour cream. I chose the sweet chili sauce and yellow curry powder, which were fine, but I preferred the pel'meni as they are. Worth a visit. I would come back if a friend wanted to try it, or on a food tour of different places, since there is nothing else on the menu.

This is a hole in the wall restaurant. The one you want to go to. I never would have thought any of these flavors would go together. They do. Don't question it, just get some first.

If you're in Madison and looking for some good comfort food....get some pierogi! Paul's Pel'meni does Russian pierogi well. If you're looking for a salad or anything else, this is not the place. They do one thing well. Really really well!Any time we visit Madison, we stop here. Tell them we sent you.....

Walk in. Order a whole or half order mixed (beef & potato) with the works! Then navigate to the bar to the right & order some tasty local suds. Shortly they’ll call your name and, for $9 for a whole serving, plus the beer, you’ll have a large amount of comforting, traditional small pierogi dumplings sprinkled with a yellow curry dusting, drizzled with sriracha and chopped cilantro will adorn the top. We had extra sour cream & sriracha on the side. Very satisfying & a great deal with classic pub surroundings. Enjoy!!! I sure did!!!*I didn’t rate service as its self serve.

The dumplings themselves aren’t well seasoned. It’s a cute spot but feels dirty.

We were visiting Madison and stopped here for a quick lunch. The dumplings had a great flavor, and they were really light but filling. The sitting area was quaint.

The food is great, we got both types of dumplings and they were great at all times! The service and all employees are all fantastic. Quiet, good food, and great service. Would recommend! Lydia was extremely hospitable and Evan was super fun to hang out with.
One of my favorite restaurants in Madison. It always is so satisfying!

Very unique as a restaurant, they serve three varieties of the same meal, being beef, potato, or mixed respectively. This means that you can walk in, place your order, and get your food in two minutes which comes in a cardboard container that can serve as both a take-out or eat-in box perfectly well. What else can I say other than they have one thing so they made sure that it was the best it could possibly be
