Barrel House Korchma

The best and the most accurate! The indoor looks and feels just like restaurants in Ukraine. The menu has so much that I've been struggling to find back home in Montreal QC, we just don't have many Ukrainian restaurants... glad to have found this one! There's a good variety on the menu, I strongly recommend their bograch, much harder to find elsewhere and personally I like it a little more than the widely more popular borsch soup. Experience Ukraine in here!

Hands down - THE best Ukrainian place in the GTA. The food is very home-like and the atmosphere is very authentic. From the decorations and to the menu itself. Everything was amazing! Very recommended!

Absolutely loved our visit! I ordered the liver and onions with potato pancake—delicious, and the beer was a perfect match. My lovely wife had the chicken schnitzel and it was awesome. Our server was so kind and helpful, making us feel right at home. The Ukrainian live music was incredible—you don’t need to understand the language because the music truly speaks to you. The whole place has amazing vibes and we left feeling so happy. Highly recommend for a wonderful night out!

We were looking for good Ukrainian food and found AMAZING Ukrainian food. I have never eaten sauerkraut with a spoon before coming here - everything we had was so good (even the sour cherry verenyky was good even if we didn’t fall in love with it). The cabbage rolls with mushroom gravy were perfection. The pickle plate is a must. The borsch was so good it made me question why I hated it as a kid (sorry Baba I didn’t like yours but here it was amazing!) and the potatoes pancakes were life affirming. We will definitely be coming back here.

Amazingly authentic Ukrainian food. Everything tasted really good and the service was friendly and attentive. I happened upon trivia night, and was treated to a free show of group singing and live music (an accordion & flute ensemble!!!)

This was our first time visiting Barrel House Korchma — and definitely not the last! The restaurant is located a bit out of the way, but we finally found the time to visit, and it was absolutely worth it. I ordered kvass, borscht with garlic pampushky, cherry varenyky, and pork shashlik with potatoes on the side. My boyfriend had deruny and the Ukrainian sausage with mashed potatoes. Everything was incredibly delicious — truly the taste of Ukraine! The atmosphere is very authentic and cozy. Everything is made of wood, which my boyfriend (a carpenter) especially appreciated. Our server was super friendly and attentive, always checking if we needed anything or extra utensils to share the dishes. The food was just wow! I don’t even have the words to describe how good it was. A lovely bonus was the map of Ukraine where you can mark the city you’re from or have lived in. Prices are very reasonable and the quality is top-notch. I highly recommend this place to anyone craving authentic Ukrainian food and atmosphere. I’ll definitely be back again!

This is a truly great place with authentic national Ukrainian food. The dishes are delicious, fresh, and full of traditional flavors you don’t often find elsewhere. The atmosphere feels warm and welcoming, and the service is just as good. There aren’t many places like this, and it’s definitely worth a visit if you want a genuine taste of Ukraine! FYI: Bograch is spicy, so keep that in mind if you prefer milder dishes!!!
