Smakosz Restaurant

Great cozy place with some of the best polish food the city has to offer.  Menu had a great selection.  Beef, pork, poultry, and fish entres all looked delicous I had white brosch soup, pierogies the best I ever had, and veal cutlet.  Food came timely, was delicious, and large portions.  Looking for a good warm meal to fill you look no further.

I come here with a group of very hungry hikers and Polish assortment  dish is everybody's favorite.I like Russian pierogi (potatoes and cheese)and dried fruit drink as well as all the soups which are prize winning.Visit  Smakosz and be amazed-enjoy Polish hospitality and hearty food that sticks to you ribs.

Came here right at closing. Thank goodness I brought my Polish interpreter with me. She pleaded with the waitress and , of course, we were seated. Deijuke!!!
Smakosz is in Jefferson Park! Portage Park does not begin until you hit Montrose. I grew up here! There are a few comments about the layout and decor. I do not know when it became Smakosz, but it was previously a Chinese restaurant. I liked the interior. Reminded me of a Polish Lodge dining room (sans the booths color.) The Banquet room was like a Polish Lodge dining room. My guest said she came here with 25-30 people and they were seated in this room. She said the food is good. She was right again! She started with a cold soup which was a creamy dill with Uszka and a side of mashed potatoes. Mashed potatoes with soup? She said this is the way she remembers her mother serving it. I ordered the Breaded Pork Chop with mushrooms. It was substantial and done well. It came with mashed potatoes. My lady ordered the Pork Cutlet. She said it was delicious. The prices are inexpensive for the quality and quantity of food served. The complimentary saladtki is excellent. I will be back to try other options on the menu and the pierogi. Are theirs better than mine? We will see.....
Loved the place!
