This little gem might be located in a strip mall, but don't let that deter you. The dining room is quaint and charming, and the service is excellent.

Everything on the menu is made from scratch, including the pierogi, which are the house specialty. They're hand-made right here in the kitchen every day.

For lunch or dinner, get your pierogi with meat or vegetable fillings. The chef often experiments with different fillings so ask your server what's new. You can choose from boiled pierogi...

...or get them fried. The boiled ones have a wonderful, tender texture; when they're fried they're more crispy on the outside. Either way, they're scrumptious.

The best thing about pierogi is that you can eat them for dinner and dessert! Try the sweet farmer cheese pierogi with blackcurrant preserve for a special treat.

Brama Restaurant offers Russian and German cuisine, and you'll find all kind of tasty entrees on the menu. Choose from schnitzel, stroganoff, kielbasa, grilled veal tongue and more. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu here.
