Polish Village Cafe was established in Hamtramck in 1979 and is known for serving authentic Polish cuisine.  Food Republic says:

Featured on "Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives" hosted by celebrity chef Guy Fieri, the cozy hole-in-the-wall spot has earned high praise from customers. One Reddit user even called it "one of the best restaurants in history." Pretty high praise for a small restaurant in Michigan.

Some of the Polish Village Cafe's must-try dishes include dill pickle soup (Zupa Ogórkowa), which features a tangy, creamy broth with pieces of pickle, carrot, and potato. For the main course, indulge in traditional Polish favorites such as pierogi, city chicken, stuffed cabbage, or schnitzel.
