Black Forest Deli

If you are looking for a real home cooked meal, go to the Black Forest Deli. This neighborhood eatery is owned and operated by Ukrainian immigrants. The menu reflects many of the traditional meals of their homeland. On the 3rd Saturday of the month they have a 5 course brunch (no reservation required). Where you do need a reservation is for the 5 course Kiev dinner. Seating is very limited so reserve ASAP. On my visit I counted 8 varieties of pierogi. The service is pleasant, the meals are filling and the prices are reasonable for home cooking. Can't wait to go back.

Like the old mom & pops stores back in the day. This place is a classic reminder that homemade goods are always good. From their pierogies, sandwiches, potato salad and service. Reasonably priced and always served fresh. This should be a permanent staple in the Lehigh valley. It's like going to grandma's house and saying: "grandma you should get paid for doing this" Well these ladies are getting paid for this and deserve every penny.

Quite harried experience running errands on Good Friday and took an hour to stop by hoping to dine in. We managed to sit inside and order a few dishes with what was available among all their Easter Bread and catering orders. The ladies were conducting business: cooking, waiting on diners and cleaning tables. A plate of chicken schnitzel with buttery mashed potatoes and one plate of buttered noodles topped with chunks of chicken (paprikas) with a plate of garlic buttered rye plus a side dish of homemade potato salad and side of chopped beets. We ordered a quart of homemade chicken noodle soup to go. Everything was delicious and true to the Russian- Ukraine cuisine.

Local mom and pops Ukrainian/Russian deli. Let me tell you..this place is outstanding. The food is prepared as if you are a guest in their home. Places like this are becoming very rare. Absolutely delicious. The people are very nice. Everything is fresh made. Been here multiple times. I highly recommend. Only tough part is there hrs.
