Had the French onion soup which is just called onion soup. Croque Madame — the best I’ve ever had Lox — ehhh. Skip this

Was quite surprised that this place was less tourist oriented and better quality than excited cited. Needed a quick light lunch(not Czech) and this place was perfect. The tuna tartar was delicious although slightly saltier than preferred. Service was ok, not great, although quite a busy time of day. Will certainly consider in the future to explore more of the menu and wine list when I have more time to relax and enjoy.

Great French meal in Prague! I was thoroughly impressed. Walked in during lunchtime and saw many Czech locals and workers grabbing lunch. I got the French onion soup and the Croque Madame. The French onion soup was yummy but it was pretty heavy considering how much cheese they put in there. It also could have been a bit saltier. The Croque Madame was amazing(and also HUGE). It’s the type of dish that you stare at and think«HOWDO I EATTHIS». Went for the fork and knife method but the sandwich was so good I wish I wasn’t as full as I was. Overall, the restaurant definitely had an authentic French vibe and not too touristy as other Czech restaurants. Really enjoyed the environment and the food was so delicious as well. Definitely check it out if you’re looking for a French meal!

The onion soup was great, not too salty, cheese wasn’t too much. Duck l’orange was tender and sauce was savory, sides were just right — they change all the time

Mixed quality at best! Nice wine list. Appetizers and salads were ok, a bit soggy. Service was fine. Main courses were poor… steak had lots of grissle. One had too chew for the good bits and then spit out the detritus. Chicken in coq au vin had been pre-cooked and then dunked in sauce before serving… literally as tough as boot leather, but edible when cut into very tiny pieces. Fries were fine. Much too expensive for quality of the food provided.

This restaurant was very close to our hotel. Being that we were exhausted from a long day, we elected to eat somewhere close even though they did not serve Czech food. The food that they did have was absolutely amazing. I ordered the duck breast with orange and duck flavored sauce which paired quite well together. We also got the veal steak which has to be the most tender and delicious veal that I have ever tasted. Our waiter was very professional and helpful as we chose our dishes. The prices we very reasonable, ranging between 10 and 20 euros per person for dinner. We returned here for breakfast. Once again, everything was delicious and rather inexpensive. I ordered the«Traditional» breakfast which includes juice and coffee. For about ten euros I got an amazing breakfast that was more than I could eat. It was so good that we ate all of our breakfasts here.

A great French place in the center. When they started out they were… good. And then something happened and they got great. Cheapest place around? Certainly not. But not terrible prices, considering the quality of the food, service and ambiance. The Coq au vin is absolutely amazing, and will transport your tongue to the fields of Burgundy. And with a nice red burgundy wine, well… heaven. And those desserts! Oh my god, those desserts. There’s also an Alsatian wine bar/eatery downstairs. One of our go-to’s in the center. And if they have the pistachio cheesecake, get it!

Right across from the Marriott Prague near Old Town. The food is really good. I had the orange glazed duck breast and my friend had coq au vin. Both were very tasty. My duck was perfectly cooked. We had creamed leeks and lentils for sides and the leeks were so good that I wanted to order them again. Not too bad price wise either. I ate for under an equivalent of $ 22. A Apparently they have really good pistachio cheesecake!

Nice cozy place. I love pistachio cheesecake here. I think here it is the best pistachio cheesecake in Europe. Handmade ice cream, fresh bread, amazing sea food. Really perfect onion soup. Staff is very polite and smart. Perfect place for summer brunch. One thing you should not order is coffee.

This is my favorite restaurant in Prague. The food is authentic, service is excellent, and the dessert section has some of the best French dessert I’ve ever had. Highly recommended!!! We made friends with Zuzana who works there. She’s so friendly and we will miss her! :-)

Nice spot w/lots of outside space. Nice wine list, but the food was just ok. Best of our group was the fantastic pork chop, while the coq au vin was oddly flavored and I think relied heavily on some kind of dehydrated beef stock. Frittes were good, service was very attentive for prague.

A fantastic find! We went for a late breakfast/early lunch and left feeling more than content. By the recommendation of our server, I ordered the Croque-Madame. My friend ordered the omelette with bacon and potatoes, with a side of fresh bread. Not only was the presentation of my dish beautiful, but it was delicious… perfectly executed. I highly recommend it! We also had nice iced coffee with milk, and it actually had ice in it(which I find to be rare in Europe.) Great service, great food, great coffee, and complimentary wifi!

We walked a decent distance to this nice little brasserie after reading Unilocal reviews. When we got there the place was empty and I cannot understand why! The meal was very good, and there was a rack of desserts that tempted all throughout the meal. The Beef Bourguignon was very tasty! Would highly recommend this establishment(although for real Lemon Meringue come to Raleigh NC :)

This is a terrific Boulangerie, café, wine bar. The food & coffee are fantastic fresh French fare. I had one of the best meals in Prague here, and it’s French. I had the largest Croque Madame there that I have ever seen. The breads and desserts are wonderful. The Onion Soup(French Onion Soup) was amazing. I could have a bowl of it daily. I looked over the wine list and wine cellar which in in the downstairs area of the brasserie. Upstairs is mainly the café with a separate area for the boulangerie. It is next to the Hilton Old town and across the street from the Marriott Old town, Prague. Beware families with unruly children. Other than that it’s terrific. I do recommend it.

Authentic French food! We ate at Brasserie La Gare everyday while in Prague. Just steps from Hilton Old Town. Across the street from the Marriott. 1−½ blocks around the corner from Powder Tower. ** Where can you find delicious french onion soup for under 5USD? ** Try their eggs benedict on potatoes galette for breakfast or Croque Madame if you are hungry. ** Bread is home-made. ** Moist, thick cut grilled porkchop with green peppercorn sauce, mixed salad, and cantaloupe gelato(perfect last meal in Europe before flying home) ** Customer service is professional and courteous(staff speaks great English). ** They open 8a-10p for dining, bar open until midnight. We liked Suzana– she was funny, personable, and she taught us a few words in Czech. She even packed a small bag of chocolates for us to go. The morning of our flight home, my friend ordered the breakfast Set Tradition to go. Suzana surprised us with a box of 3 delicious macarons for each of us to enjoy in the plane. A kind gesture which will remind us of our memorable stay in Prague

Great little Frenchie find. Cute brasserie! The food was great — I recommend the beef! I would skip the duck confit. The desserts looked amazing as well but I was too stuffed. Between 2, we had French onion soup and 2 entrees which came out to 33 Euros. Extremely reasonable for the quality, service, and spot! Enjoy Prague!

Table for 10, which means 10 drinks at once, plus wine carafe. I would never attempt it but, our brave server did and unfortunately lost. Of all things, wine goes down. Nooooo! It’s ok, we mourned a little but when it’s replacement came we were all happy again. Our server apologized profusely — poor lady really felt bad when, to us, it was just a minor delay to order. I started with the duck Foie Gras. Served with perfectly toasted bread and caramelized red onions. At first I hesitated on the onions but once I tried it all together it was delicious. Even my «picky eater» sister liked it. As main course I had the duck breast, also really good. Served with orange and a Grand Marnier Sauce. All main dishes come with 3 sides: potatoes, and different vegetables. That night we got creamy potatoes, white asparagus, and artichoke. Yes, I tried all 3 and cannot tell you which was my favorite. I would go have them again. From the other plates at the table, I tried the Coq au Vin — this is one of their most generous portioned plates, the Fricase the Guinea, and the Beef Cheeks were so tender you almost didn’t need a knife. Wine carafe was enough for four glasses, and good pairing to our dinner. Oh, and their coffee, I LOVED! I had a «piccolo», which is like an espresso, it’s thick and strong — exactly how coffee should be. It’s located near the National Centre so you have a nice view when waking by. Another good restaurant to try while in Prague.
