March 2024 by little bit of everything
Terrible service. Elderly Russian lady at the front was very rude. Sometimes these people don't realize that they live in America by being rude and lacking basic american customer service skills. They serve like they do in Russia. Bad attitude and rude. This place is not sanitary either. Food is literally sitting there and being served and sold from the counter like in old soviet union. Never coming back and it's not located in winter park more so Semoran.

Lacomka is located in a strip mall with plenty of parking. The majority of the space is for a Russian/Ukraine/Georgian grocery store. There are tons of items I remember from my childhood (my grandparents were Russian and Polish immigrants) like Farmer Cheese and herring and halvah. I used Google Translate to figure out what everything was. In the back is a little cafe area. We didn't know if we ordered at the counter and then sat down but no, you sit down and the cafe area is full service (15% gratuity is automatically added). We ordered a selection of items. I got the red borscht which comes with beef and potatoes and is served hot. I ended up really liking it but it was different than the cold red borscht that my grandmother used to make. I also tried the Compot(e), which is a cold fruit juice which is sweetened. It was very good and went well with the food. My entree was the chicken paprikash which was delicious although a little spicy for me. My dining companions had less luck with their selections. They ordered the Pirozhki, which is fried dough around potatoes and cabbage. They liked the cabbage one but thought the potatoes one was a little bland. The Cheese Pancakes were good, especially with the sweet red glaze. Finally, they got the Khinkali, which is Georgian dumplings. These were like Hong Kong Soup Dumplings where the meats and juices were inside and you had to be careful eating them. My dining companions just didn't like these. They said there was too much pepper on top and the inside meat was not as tender as they thought it would be. However, we had wanted to try a bunch of items and we did. The bread served with the meal was also very good. We sat around for a while after the meal and then weren't sure how to get the check. We ended up just going to the counter and paying, which was fine. It was very interesting to try new to us foods.

Lovely little store full of goodies from former Soviet countries and Russian.Attentive service. The cafe is divine. Reasonably priced, good sized portions, and authentic cuisine. Easily some of the best borscht I’ve had in years. The khinkali is also incredible as is the Napoleon cake. I’ll be back here many times to try all of other items on the menu - it’s that good.The lady in the kitchen and the gentleman with the glasses are such nice people. Orlando.. you are lucky to have this hidden gem.

One of the most memorable meals of my life. The literal love you can taste in this food is impossible to put into words. We had pirozkhi (one of each flavor), red borscht, chicken paprikash, golubtsi, and washed it all down with their homemade compote. Each component was better than the last. I think one could close their eyes and point to something on the menu and be satisfied with their choice. I will say, if I had to recommend just one thing, it would be the red borscht. Absolutely life-changing. Wonderful service, and a great store-front. I look forward to many more meals here.

Wonderful owners, great selection and the food were outstanding. The richness of the broth in the borscht really stood out to me. Honey cake is unlike anything I ever had before. Definitely coming back when I'm in the area again.

I work five minutes from this place and didn't receive a hello from the minute I came inside I was there for at least five almost 10 minutes and no attention or assistance offered? This gentleman came out of nowhere and was helped right away. The lady didn't even say "I'm sorry I'll be with you in a minute" "made me feel very bad". I will never come to this place. very bad impression and customer service. I work helping people, and I could never do that to anyone coming to my place of business. I almost felt like I was racial profiled because I'm dark skinned.
