Astoria

Mazovia & Podlasie


Adjoining posher options under the same name, this is a milk bar for the modern age. The decor is chipper, the servers engaging, kind and helpful. The food is pure Polish 101, with all the classics prepared well and priced cheap. Grab a tray, point at what you want and enjoy local comfort food at its best.
