Stopped here for dinner with some friends who were staying a couple of blocks away at the Hotel Belvedere. Our server was quite friendly and spoke English and our food was prepared and delivered promptly. Our group had: Salad with cherry tomatoes, arugula and Parmesan Tartar of marinated salmon with fennel, dill and crème fraîche Veal cutlet with potato kaší Linguine with lobster, shrimp and zucchini Lamb from the oven with potatoes kaší Lamb Chop Fresh fish of the day — Tuna Vegetable Sicilian — Caponata Everyone loved their food. None of us drank any wine or cocktails, so I cannot attest to that, but the food prices were reasonable and everything was prepared to everyone’s preferences(rare, medium, etc.) It was chilly the night we went, but the photos of their outdoor dining area look nice for those warm summer evenings.

Great Italian spot! Our friend found it on trip advisor and it was the best food we had while in Prague. They didn’t have any beer this night or coca cola but ended up with some great wine instead. Server was nice and saw the chef come out a few times to drop off food. Love when they do that especially when staff is busy and chef wants that food out hot and fresh. Bravo!

I have been coming here since they opened and have always been a big fan. I want very much to give them five stars… but two things prevent me from doing so — the inconsistency issue, and that terrible outdoor area. When these guys are on, it’s some of the best Italian in Prague, hands-down. But when the B-crew is working, you can just taste the apathy. Same goes for the service — when the owners are there, everything works like a clockwork machine, but when they aren’t, the service drops down to Hospudka-like levels and you start to feel like a jerk for bothering them for napkins, or the forks they forgot. And then there’s that backyard — a weird space that is almost always moist-to-wet, and the neighbours are all jerks so you HAVE to move inside at 22h sharp, and, the worst part, is that when the back is open, they refuse to seat you indoors at all(they need those tables for the 10pm rush). Now all this sound like a bad review, but the truth is that, when I get to sit inside and the good staff is on, there are few places in the neighbourhood that I would rather dine at. They can be THAT good.

Went there after reading Unilocal reviews. Were told they were too busy. We walked out but my wife who clearly has a bigger pair than I went back in and they relented and gave us a table. Very romantic courtyard dining. Lots of families, kids running around but not annoying at all. We got a bottle of wine, salads and my wife had lamb chops and I had pasta with shrimp and lobster. Chops were great and a large portion. Pasta delicious. Tiramasu for desert. Best dinner in a long time.

Mediterranean cuisine/fish lovers rejoice, Peperoncino is just the place for you. I love this little spot in Letna — it ticks all the right boxes for a great restaurant. The food is always fresh and delicious — as I mentioned, I am especially keen on their fish(they always seem to have at least two fresh types on daily offer) or seafood(their octopus main is really yummy). But there are also delicious options for carnivores, and excellent Italian desserts to top the evening off with. The location is very convenient whether you come by public transport or by car, but because it’s tucked away in a smaller street not dead in the busiest center, the dining experience is never too crazily busy like it can be in the most popular central spots at times. Overall, the atmosphere is really cozy — the interior is simply rustic and suited for a romantic dinner. And if the weather in nice, the outdoor garden is lovely. The serving staff always seemed genuinely nice, too. With prices around 150 for a starter and on average 250 — 300 for a main, this is not the cheapest dining experience in Prague, but the quality of the meals is well worth the prices.(Also, the pasta mains are cheaper, at around 150 per meal) Oh and dog lovers — feel free to bring your well behaved doggie along — they are welcome not just in the garden, but even in the interior.

Great location, close to Letna. Lovely garden in the back and a charming interior. The staff was friendly and accommodating and the food was very tasty.
