Loaded Pierogi - Edmonton

This was basically fast food. Portions were ok, but not a dining experience. Quite unhealthy. Three of us ate for $75 (no dessert), we were full, but didn't feel that we ate anything special.

Nothing remarkable about the actual pierogi. Toppings are interesting, some better than others. I’m sure we’ll go back again to try other options. Seems like it would be good ‘after the bar’ food.

Very good food. Non traditional. Good experience and very clean.

Loaded Pierogi is a great option if you are looking for an option beyond the usual fast food. I've never met a pierogi I didn't like and this is no exception. In addition to the classics, they offer some fun toppings. My favourite vegetarian option is the wild mushroom truffle which is loaded with mushrooms, goat cheese, caramelized onions and truffle sour cream. You also have the option to get the toppings on poutine or mac cheese if you aren't in the pierogi mood. I've never dined in but the space is open and clean and service is always pretty fast, even during the lunch rush.

Flavour, it was good and met expectations 100%. However I found that since I make pierogis at home they taste just as good if not better. The moral of the story is you want to go the more expensive fancy flavour toppings to make it worth it. Cause why I didn't rate it higher was the prices are a touch expensive for some of the options. But all food is getting expensive so it is what it is. Lastly the location I found was pretty dim and cold which is why I took an additional star off.
