Review of Solidarity

The restaurant just changed its name and is now called Solidarity. It's still Polish food, although it tastes like a pretty Californian version of Polish food. The updated menu has clearly-marked gluten free options, and none of them sent up red flags. I had the herring and the hunter stew. It was $20 for a moderately sized bowl of stewed beef and vegetables with a few sausage chunks. Usually stew is eaten with bread or potatoes, and for the price it was a little weird to get just the stew all by itself. The tapas concept of a la carte "small plates" and "large plates" that fancy restaurants are using seems odd for Polish food. The pickled herring was $11 and it was very similar to what you get in a grocery store, with sour cream and thinly sliced vegetables on top. Expect to pay about $30 for a full meal, and be warned that there aren't really any gluten-free carb options.
