A great Polish restaurant in Michigan is Polonus in Wyandotte. I go there all the time! Great food!

In Hamtramack go to Polonia's or Under the Eagle. If you are on the eastside you can got to a place called the glass onion. They have one in clinton township and one in chesterfield. I dont know of any on the west side. I am an eastsider. If you want some good rib's go to 3 star bbq in Hamtramack, i know its not polish food but it is excellent. Let me know if this helps.

I know, for sure, that I have eaten at Polonia's and I am also pretty sure that I have eaten at Under the Eagle, as well (I have dined at 2 places in Hamtramck). They are both fabulous. One of them (Polonia's, I think) had FABULOUS dill pickle soup and cheese nalezniki (spelling?) and cheese pierogy (my favorite!!) and my dad loves the czarnina - As I recall, these 2 places were close by each other - possibly both were located on Joseph Campau, but I am not positive (don't know if I spelled the street name correctly). In any case, you can't go wrong with the Polish food in Hamtramck!
I live in Canada, but have relatives in Michigan (my dad is from Hamtramck) and we go there whenever we are in the Detroit area, which is not often enough.
Another good place to eat was, I think, called the Polish Cultural Center, but I don't remember where that was - maybe in the Sterling Heights area? A Michigander could verify the name/location. It was like a legion hall - yummy, yummy food!

The Polish Culteral Center is on 15 Mile and Ryan Rd on the north west Corner. There is 2 Sisters in downtown Rochester on the west side by Kinko's. In Sterling Heights and Warren there is Bosko's and Starlight respectivly. and in Troy on Rochester Rd on the east side is Luckich.

If you want all homemade great Polish food, it's in Wyandotte at Gustyn Hall, at the corner of 9th & Vinewood. (Across from Mount Carmel Church). They are open for kunch & dinner on Fridays from 11 to 8. We go there quite often or get a carryout 734-282-8255. They also have yummy homemade desserts. :-)

Does anyone remember The Royal Eagle, in Indian Village, which is now The Harlequin? They had the very best Polish food ever, but they either moved or went out of business. I would sure like to know what happened to them.

Polish village on Yemans street in Hamtramck across the parking lot from Polonia. Better than the rest, more authentic and a lot cheaper.

There is a new one over on harper just north of 13 mile called Celinas. Cheap and very very good. Celina is a very nice lady.

The Polish Cultural Center is actually at 15 and Dequindre, NW corner, not at Ryan.

Anyone ever tried Pyza, a Polish restauruant on Van Dyke at around 16 or 18 Mile road?

Pyza is on the west side of Van Dyke just south of 21 mile rd. pricy but very good.

My mom said they moved yrs back to Royal Oak under a different name. They were there 2 yrs and then they lost their lease. Between Washington and Main by the railroad tracks by Fresards. My mom doesn't know where they went she asked the people who were there remodeling and they didnt know.

Marcus Grill in Shelby Township has got my vote! Its a new place on 25 1/2 & Vandyke, North East Corner. They have a nice selection of homemade Polish Items, the Perogies are INCREDIBLE! The Dill Pickle Soup is on every once in a while I would definitely recommend it!

I like Under the Eagle on Jos Campau in Hamtramck the best. I love their czarnina. Closest to my Grandma's I've ever had.

The Polonia and Polish Village Cafe are next on my list. Then Wawel, also known as the Polish Cultural Center.

I haven't been to or heard of the others mentioned. Except for Pyza. I agree the food is pricey there, but except for the roast pork and the duck breast appetizer I really wasn't impressed by the food.

But Polish food is regional and you always judge it by what your Babcia used to make!

Aug 5, 09, 00:14 - Thread attached on merging: POLISH DINING IN SE MICHIGAN The American-Polish Cutlrual Center is definitely a place to visit when in the Detroit area: Polish food in a Polish cultrual setting, banquets, off-site catering and various cultural events makes this place a must. www.AmericanPolishCenter.com

The Royal Eagle was Under the Eagle's high end sibling. The couple divorced and the husband opened The Royal Eagle in Indian Village. It was a stunning place in the huge ballroom of the Parkhurst Hotel. The harlequin was in the same building but was not in the same space. You had the feeling you were dining in a great hotel in Krakow in 1930. The first time my wife and I ate there we were amazed that they had real candelabras with real candles all the while there were 20 floors of residents above. It was so cool, but we thought dangerous. The food was delectable. Veal Lwow, filet mignon stuffed in a pancake with creamy caper sauce, excellent dill sauces and tortes to die for. It was one of the restaurants that closed after the "fireworks debacle". He later opened a restaurant in Royal Oak called "Daniels" which won monthly Detroit restaurant of the year. It served "central european food. It had much of the same menu. Polish food. I heard he died.
