Fantastic food and phenomenal service: I got the Lamb Shank, and it was among the best meals I’ve had in Europe. The service is friendly and speaks English, and the menu, while short, is good across the board(I tried some of my friends Roasted Duck, and Braised Beef, and both dishes were also fantastic). The wait time is a tad long, but not overly so, and the quality of the food more than makes up for this. A tad pricy for a few of the dishes, but not unreasonably expensive. All in all, I could not recommend this place more.

Enjoyed the Pork ribs here, served with a generous side of warm brown bread and sour cream. Good Mojitos as well, and great service:)

Most amazing food ever. I came with some friends and we ordered enough for double our table. Everything is reasonably priced and tasted amazing. Everything on the menu is great. Spoke english really well. Was good for an authentic Czech meal. Highly recommend the beef tartar.

We tried this place out on the recommendation of a close friend. She said the goulash was the best she’d ever had so I decided to try it out. We arrived and were immediately sat at a quaint two top in the middle of the restaurant. For being a Saturday afternoon it wasn’t terribly busy, maybe 4 other tables. We ordered Pilsners and the venison pâté and boiled sausage for our starters. Surprisingly the venison pâté was phenomenal! It had pistachios in it and came with a cranberry sauce and bread. The boiled sausage came with spicy mustard and capers. The sausage was slightly undercooked for my liking. Sadly they were not featuring goulash on the menu when we were there so I opted for a beef roast entrée instead. It came with carrots and potatoes and was filling. My husband ordered potato mushroom soup. We almost asked for the recipe for the soup because it was fricken awesome! If it were sociably acceptable I would’ve licked the bowl clean! The service was efficient and friendly. The staff were kind and presented us with English menus. Overall it was a great lunch in Prague. I would highly recommend the soup!

As noted by others, this is another restaurant that has English speaking staff and an English menu. Made a reservation for a Friday night at 8:30 and it appeared that was important, as the bright restaurant was rather full. Started with a glass of Czech red wine, which came served cold so it was hard to tell how good it was. The second glass was from Israel which was also chilled, so not sure how good that one was either. One starter was a finely chopped steak tartare. It was excellent and very flavorful, and came with great, thick butter toasted bread. It was a substantial dish; too much for a starter. The goose liver pâté was tasty, especially with the cranberry sauce. The bread for this was not so great. It was also a large piece of pâté. The rabbit was smoked, which was an unexpected surprise, and cooked perfectly, falling off the bone. It was really tasty. It included zucchini, carrots and celery, which were crisp, in a lot of a very mild mustard sauce. It could have used some potatoes to soak up the sauce. The lamb chops came in a very sweet port wine sauce. There wasn’t much meat on the chops. It was accompanied by a pile of potatoes, that weren’t quite mashed and were covered in fresh marjoram stems. The potatoes were boring. It was a bit of a challenge to get the server’s attention to pay at the end, which was weird, because as soon as I put down my fork when nearly finishing my entrée, the waiter swooped in to clear it away.

Amazing food. Extremely attentive waitstaff. Cool atmosphere. I HIGHLY recommend the dill soup as a starter. It was fantastic. They also spoke English to me, which is a bonus since I don’t know Czech.

I make it a point to eat here at least once every time I come to Prague. The food is excellent and reasonably priced. The waitstaff speaks English and doesn’t laugh at us either when we try to speak Czech or when we need to ask in English. The salmon special with dill sauce and asparagus is especially delicious. We love the garden in the back when it’s nice. Anyone looking for Czech food in a place that isn’t touristy– take the 22 tram to U Bulinu.

This place is amazing. Would highly recommend the pork cheek and the lamb knee. Pork belly and the roasted rabbit also definitely worth a try. If you go with a group order an extra entrée or two cause I’m sure everything here is worth trying. Wash it all down with a glass of Pilsner Urquell.

Durch die bislang guten Bewertungen haben wir uns auf den Weg gemacht. Aus unserer Sicht eher durschnittliche Küche zu hohen Preisen. Es gibt eine Unmenge Alternativen in der Stadt.

I cannot understand all of those raving reviews. Honestly. We have been there once when it was cold. We sat down and just put down our jackets on the bench next to us — as you would do in an almost empty(not too fancy) restaurant for lunch. A waiter came and told us that he wouldn’t accept that and we would have to hang our jackets on the coat rack. He showed no mercy when we told him that we would rather have them with us. I just thought that behavior was very rude. Unsurprisingly, we didn’t enjoy our lunch(although I can’t remember if the food was really bad or just«meh»). We went back a few weeks ago — like grown ups — leaving that one bad experience in the past because their garden looked inviting and we wanted to give the place another chance since so many people seem to enjoy it. And the food was«meh». Just«meh». The soup contained way too much salt, the Svickova tasted very bland and was maybe one of the worst Svickovas I ever had… and I have had loads since I love that dish. There are SO many better options in the neighborhood, especially if you fancy the Czech cuisine!

Best meal we had in Prague in Sept 2012. Goulach was super tasty served in a bread bowl. The duck with dumplings was delicious as well. Ice cold beer, super friendly service and walking distance from our hotel. Will be back on the next trip to Prague. Super cheap too… best part of Prague after leaving Vienna was the cheap an tasty food and beer. Vienna was awesome and had tasty beer & food but was like twice the price.

This is the third time I’ve been to this restaurant. The first two times was when I was in Prague 3 years ago and it was so delicious that I wrote the name down for the next time I visited. I brought my husband here hoping it was as good as I remembered and it delivered. I had the beef goulash since I had it last time and loved it. It was every bit as good as I remembered. My husband had the stuffed pork knuckle and it was very good, although I preferred mine. We’re only here 4 nights but will definitely make a point to eat here again. Also, the service was great and the waiters professional but friendly.

This restaurant serves one of the most delicious and affordable meals I have eaten so far in Prague. There is a great collection of different traditional Czech dishes, and most of the main plates come with Czech dumplings as a side. The pork shoulder with bacon dumplings is absolutely amazing, as well as the rabbit leg dish. I highly recommend the homemade fruit teas that they have, which are a perfect complement to the meal. The only knock I have against this almost-perfect meal was the fact that even though we came when there were only 2 other tables being waited on, we waited nearly half an hour to receive our check after asking for it from 2 different waiters. I’ll chalk this up to some rare mishap though, and will definitely be back before I leave.

Love this place. This has become our weekly«Sunday dinner» spot. It’s obvious that a lot of care has gone into this place — from the décor to the fanciful story of how the restaurant came to be which takes up two pages of the menu. The staff is efficient, friendly and patient with questions and dietary restrictions. Fantastic food from huge menu of items — there is definitely something for everyone. I haven’t met a meal here I didn’t enjoy, I try to have something different every time, but the duck is one of my favorites. The portions are generous and they also have unfiltered Pilsner Urquell on tap. This non-smoking restaurant is large as Czech dining establishments go, but manages to never feel loud or crowded.
