Six of us went to this restaurant after reading reviews on tripadvisor. We weren't disappointed. Food and service were great as were the surroundings. Varied menu choice.

Found this place by accident, close to our hotel (Maksymillian). It's down an alley and not obviously a restaurant. The staff were welcoming. English not a problem. The restaurant offers good, wholesome Polish food and drink at very reasonable prices. For example I had borscht with dumplings followed by spare ribs with sauerkraut plus a beer for just over 20...

Not expensive, we did find better though and much closer to the Main Market Square. The dumplings were tasty and the place felt like traditional Poland

Down an alley is not always a good place to eat but this place was wonderful. Traditional Polish food and good sized portions. Very friendly staff.

This restaurant was really close to where we were staying so we thought we would try it as the reviews were good! We ordered 2 beers and looked over the menu then another waitress came to take our drinks order... We explained we had ordered it from the other waitress who came to our table and she seemed really angry... More

Luckily we had the address from Tripadvisor as this was not easy to locate on a dark, rainy night. The sign is quite difficult to read and the Restuarant is down a small alleyway. The food was worth it, lovely dumplings, and the waitress friendly with great English. Quite spartan surroundings but very clean, with 80's rock music playing softly... More

Mega cheap and authentic Polish cuisine - nice staff - try the beetroot and dumpling soup! Surroundings are a bit spartan but that only adds to the charm.

Nostalgia was located on the way into Old Town from our hotel so we had passed it several times during our stay and decided that it seemed as good a place as any for our last taste of Poland (not counting the litres of Bison Grass vodka we brought back with us). We weren't disappointed; we were created warmly and... More

We saw this was quite highly rated on trip advisor and it happened to be on the main road we walked down everyday to get to the city centre, not that you would've known. This restaurant is tucked away down a little archway/tunnel and leads to a traditional style polish townhouse, hence the perfect setting for traditional polish cuisine. The... More
