J. Betski’s
One of downtown’s newest offerings in the Seaboard area, J. Betski’s doesnt disappoint. Offerings pay tribute to the owner/chef’s German and Polish heritage. Standout dishes include their house made keilbasa, traditional schnitzel and gingerbread as well as other traditional offerings.
What I had this time was a mix of favorites and a new special dish. I started with the Keilbasa. Served with a couple spicy mustards and their house made sauerkraut. This dish is easily shared by two as an appetizer and is rich in flavor.
Dinner was a special dish. I’m unsure of the name, but it included an assortment of roasted meats including seared duck and beef kielbasa atop a bead of white navy beans. An excellent dish i would definitely recommend to anyone venturing in.
Dessert was another special. Instead of their traditional apple sturdel, they were offering a nut strudel. At around an inch think it reminded me of a greek bakalava with less pastry and more nuts. An excellent choice as well.
It appears that the resturant is getting a following. There were no available seats around the time we were there. I would definitely suggest getting a reservation on any of the traditional nights to go out.
