My wife and I enjoyed a lovely menu here recently, It has a 'tasting' style menu where you can choose anything from 3 to 7 courses. You can spread the choice over a range of starters, mains and deserts. There are wine choices to match if you so choose. Environment is cosy and informal with about 10 tables. Food quality... More

This small restaurant with a very cozy atmosphere offers probably the best gastronomy experience in Prague. While its sister La Rotonde offers mainly food based on local recipes, the chef unleashes his fantasy here. Some of the combinations on the degustation menu look a bit unusual but everything we got was very delicious, absolutely fresh and well balanced. The service... More

Service was top notch and food excellent befitting of a restaurant of this calibre. Super impressed with the tasting menu and was about a third of the price we'd normally pay for a degustation menu in Melbourne! Waiters were super friendly and made the night a memorable one for our visit to Prague

We went for dinner there while on a weekend in Prague. After reading all the reviews we had high expectations for this place. We ordered the 5 course menu with the wine pairing for each course, which doubles the price and is definitely not worth doing. The wines were ok but not exceptional. The food was ok... Nothing very special... More

First of all it is situated at the raddison hotel, so it´s not that easy to find, small cozy restaurant, good service, but great dessert, after eating a 4 course meal for only 1100 CZK which I think is a good price for a michelin star restaurant, the menu had this option which was called "dessert painting" in which the...

Was the Michelin star awarded because Prague, as one of the most popular tourist cities in Europe, did not have a Michelin restaurant yet or was it awarded because the overall experience has indeed Michelin star quality? Personally I think that the restaurant would not get a Michelin rating if it would have been located in Paris, Brussels or London.... More

Visited this restaurant with high expectations (despite it being a seafood restaurant in landlocked Prague), and I was dramatically disappointed. The good points were the lobster bisque which was delicious, as were the after dinner chocolates we were given. The setting was nice - a small dining room sectioned off from the hotel lounge area, and the maitre d was... More

Everything here is amazing. We ordered the 4 courses dinner at 1100CK which is a very good deal. Everything is beautifully displayed and the food quality is excellent. Staff is really friendly with genuine service. We feel like VIPs there! And the chef would actually come to your table to make sure everything is going okay! Would definitely come back... More

This restaurant has the first local chef to ever earn a michelin star. The reason is that the local food is not up to western taste. But the tasting meue prepared at this restaurant is fantastic. They only have a few table, so book in advance! We paid EUR 130 for 7 courses with wine pairing - a very good... More
