A bowling alley probably isn't the first place you'd think to get great food, but this spot is serving up grub that's homemade through and through. The turkey sandwich — yes, there's bread under there — has turkey marinated in cola, a light spread of mayo and crisp lettuce. 

"Polonia" is a slang term for Polish people living outside the mother country, but the food here is pretty close to tradition. The pierogi are made with two kinds of pork and caramelized onions wrapped in dough, boiled, then served with more caramelized onions and sour cream.

Pot roast gets a makeover when it's slow-roasted with veggies and wrapped in a tortilla here. It even gets stuffed with a mashed potato-and-polenta mixture and covered in reduced gravy.

Almost everything served here is comfort food, and one of the most-popular dishes on the menu is classic chicken and waffles. The meat is marinated in buttermilk and fried after being rolled in a homemade dredge; the whole thing is served with hot pepper syrup.
