Throughout the city of Buffalo, you can find quite a few delicious spots to enjoy Polish dishes. Of course, Mazurek’s Bakery on South Park Avenue is a local favorite, but there’s another tasty place where you’ll find something a bit more savory. The Polish restaurant puts a new twist on our favorite traditional dish, so pop on over to taste the delicious flavors served up at this mouthwatering Queen City kitchen.
Ru’s Pierogi opened up on Niagara Street just over two years ago, when Chef Andy Ruszczyk realized just how much Buffalonians enjoyed the way he had learned to transform and elevate his grandmother's traditional pierogi recipes. His popular food truck just wasn’t enough, so he opened up a brick-and-mortar shop too!
Located inside one of the city’s many historic buildings, Ru's Pierogi has an inviting and rustic feel with hints of brick and beautiful wood furnishings throughout the dining room and bar.
Chef Ruszczyk has mastered the art of making the perfect pierogi, but has also taken a leap forward to create unique variations in addition to the classic flavors. Ru’s has quite a variety on the menu to choose from!
You’ll also find daily specials featured at Ru’s, and they really show off Chef Ruszczyk’s culinary creativity. It’s no wonder this place has already become a local favorite!
What started off as a food truck has now become one of our favorite places to visit when we're over on Niagara Street. Buffalo's passion for all things Polish has once again found its way into the spotlight, and we couldn’t be happier.
Ru's Pierogi is located at 295 Niagara Street, Buffalo NY 14201 and is open Monday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. and on Friday & Saturday from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. For more information and to get a peek at the menu, visit the restaurant’s website here and follow along on its Facebook page here.
