The restaurant has a lot of history and the fact that the waiters are well knowledgeable about the restaurant and even gave out images of the history of the location makes the visit more than a mere dinner but an insightful experience as described in the headline. Food was really good. I took the deer along with a glass of red wine. There was also live music with great pick of songs although his voice could have been better in some moments. Sadly, the experience was downgraded at the last moments when the chef decided to close down the kitchen before due time. A few minutes after serving the main course, the waiter asked me whether I would like dessert as the Chef wanted to close the kitchen. Due to this I said no thanks, resulting in clients seeing him shirtless in the kitchen, while clients are still eating the main course. Irrelevant if there are 4 guests inside or 100 guests, professionalism should all throughout the customer journey.

Based on very positive reviews we went here and were not disappointed. There's a very good atmosphere and the food is amazing. Every detail is taken care of: The waiters are attentive and take extra care that you have everything that you need. They are happy to make suggestions and as an extra touch explain each dish that you are served and how it's special. The food taste wonderful and there's plenty of it. Actually we had to turn down dessert, even though we would have liked it, we were simply too full already. The menu is not overfull with too many choices, but I see that as a strength, there's enough to choose from and focus on, but not so much that you are left with decision fatigue. There's a good selection of drinks and alcohol. For the food and experience that we had, we felt that the prices were very good value indeed!

Warm sincere welcome Exquiisit service, friendly, engaging, informative and fun Food was just delicious.. So interesting and original. We tried the stater platter which did not disappoint. The homemade gnocchi was everything it should be with a delicious truffle sauce and vegan cheese. The ambience, decor and live music just added to the whole unique vibe that fills the Canis space. We couldn't have wished for a more delightful first night in Poland. Its got to be the best restaurant I have dined at in a very long time. I gave my best friend a well deserved pat on the back for choosing it. 10 out of 10

I Went here with my Mother and Sister. It was our last dinner before leaving for home the next morning. My Sister has severe gluten and egg allergy and we Kindly asked about food options for her. They could not serve the hamburger without the bread (which is the easiest thing in the world to remove) so we ended up Having to take one of the most expensive dishes on the menu, and had to pay full price even tho we removed the sauce. I also took that dish and I got one small table spoon of sauce that hardly was enough for 3 bites of the Meat and definitely not enough to cover both veggies and 2 kind of potatoes so we asked for more sauce. Another spoon full of sauce came. Before the food even came and we were given a table (we had booked a table earlier that night) the table did not even have enough glasses or cutlery even tho they knew several hours before that we were coming. They also said it was impossible to book a table at 19 (so we had to book 19.30) but when we came 19.30 the restaurant was only halfway full. There was also a singer with a band Who sang so loud you would think he was inside the toilet with you when you were there. We asked for water and the winelist. It took 30 mins for it to arrive and we even had to remind the waitress Who seemed very passive aggessive. They had even forgot to put some wines in the cooler so they asked my Mother if she wanted to wait a bit longer for her choice of wine.20.30 our food finally came...one hour after we ordered. Totally unacceptable! The food was delicious tho so no complaints there but when we finally paid we also had to pay for tap water, service charge and my 1 table spoon of extra sauce... Do yourself a favour and go some where else with better service. Such a pity since the food was very delicious

Food was nice (not great) and thats all I can say in favor. Waiting for food is awfully long, not to mention that waiter forgets about things you ordered. Place is crowded, noisy, there is no way you can have a normal conversation without shouting. I really cant understand where are all those good reviews coming from. I’ve experienced better restaurants. For the first time in long long years I didn’t leave the tip. But the food was nice. Nice, not great. And please throw away that round table close to the window, its really not comfotable to sit on the edge, trying to be closer to your partner, just to hear what he’s saying. And it’s ustable - especially when you need to cut a steak with a knife that’s not supposed to be used for cutting a medium steak. You were all really nice during making all those mistakes. But I like when waiter knows what he’s doing, I’m not a fan of being apologised to after the mistake.

A disappointing and very expensive meal for what we got. The food was ok even though they were sold out of many things on the menu and that was at 7:00 pm. But what I objected to most was the service. The waitress asked if we were interested in trying a Polish Pinot Noir wine and we agreed. Foolish us as it was 80 euros a bottle. At that price she should have definitely been more professional in presenting and explaining the wine. The whole eating experience was rushed, unfriendly, and expensive. Normally, I think Trip Advisory gets it right, but not this time.

Excellent food, tastes were very diverse and the wine accompanied well. Great 5 star food/drinks experience… Never experienced such a pushy service which made us not ordering as much as we would usually do… we did not get the chance to properly look the menu card, some items were not available anymore and the waitress was suggesting other dishes/wines without giving any chance to make own decision… had to wait for an hour until the starters were served. The place was not full at all… Live music was also right next to us, which made it hard it have a conversation during diner.

Was staying with a friend in Gdansk for a few days and we wanted to treat ourselves to something special, so opted for the highest rated restaurant on TA ( as of March 2022 ) and are so glad we did. An amazing experience, the restaurant manages to feel both high end and unpretentious at the same time. Amazingly friendly and helpful staff who were happy to offer recommendations and were very attentive without being in any way overbearing. The food was fantastic, the Minestrone soup was fantastic and the veal schnitzel was the most amazing I’ve ever tasted. My friend went for the Deer and he seemed very pleased. Excellent wine list catering for all budgets, and a huge selection of gins and other sprits available. Deserts were huge and absolutely delicious. For the two of us, the meal came to the equivalent of £120 which considering we had aperitifs, a great bottle of wine and brandies to finish,wasn’t bad. Don’t think you need to l6 these prices though,if you scale down the drinks, you can have a really good value meal. The restaurant is welcoming to families too. An amazing experience and the highlight of our stay in Gdansk for sure me well worthy of its top rating.

From start to finish, this was an incredible experience. Our waiter was friendly, knowledgable, extremely fluent in English, recommended amazing food and brilliant wines to match, and gave the entire evening a real touch of class. We had the sharing starter which was really lovely, and then my partner and my mother had beef whilst I had deer. Oh my goodness, I can’t even put into words how good this food was. So many flavours and they all complemented each other amazingly. If you’re even in Gdańsk, or even just sort of in the general area, then you have to visit this restaurant. It’s truly worth the journey, and the price is entirely reasonable as well. We’re visiting for four days, and will doubtlessly be back before we head back home.

One of the best restaurant experiences I’ve had. The service was incredible with staff that knew everything there was to know about costumer service. First off all we got tips on all of the dishes for a three course dinner, with genuine interest in how the dishes would complement each other and how we could choose to get a bottle of wine that would be amazing with all of it. We had continuous refills of wine, questions on satisfaction and water refills etc and felt really taken care of. When we realized we were almost last to leave we, instead of feeling rushed off, felt like we were welcome to stay forever. And off course the dinner was absolutely stunning! As a vegetarian I was so happy to find the chef had really thought the dish through with finess. All and all it was an amazing night. Thank you for this!

I believe this is our 10th visit to Canis.. Excellent sirloin, probably even better than previously. Same for prawns, the added subtle toasts were great. Fantastic riesling (Polish! I was shocked someone made such a wine in Poland) Solid creme brulee. Very pleasant music, as usual. My only 2 "buts" concern service and Covid protection. Windows were not open, although they could have been. The waiters were not wearing masks , the one helping us said he had asthma. But what is the probability, that the second waiter was also asthmatic ? In such case they could have used plastic helmets - they allow normal breathing. Especially that waiters were moving their faces close to clients and talking directly into our faces.. So we will probably put on hold our visits to Canis till the Restaurant increases Covid awareness.

Would have given more stars for the Bouillabaisse, it was VERY DELICIOUS. But my friend ordered a burger, was told there was no burgers and afterwards we watched burgers served at the next table. UNACCEPTABLE. The Kulbin, which the waiter knew was a fish, was delicious, unfortunately the orzo was not warm anymore. Not recommendable as one of the top restaurants in Gdansk.

We had lunch at Canis during a trip to Gdansk. We were immediately struck by the courtesy with which we were welcomed and seated at the table. All the waiters (very young and impeccable) spoke excellent English. The place is large and very beautiful (former hotel), with a sumptuous bar counter overlooking the room and the open kitchen at the back. We also noticed a small stage with a microphone and speakers and we read on the website that there is live music in the evening (we however took advantage of an excellent background playlist). The menu is varied and inviting, and offers choices of both meat, fish and veggie, plus salads, appetizers and desserts. The wine list is also very assorted (there is even Sassicaia 2016, for those who can afford it... 😂), on the advice of the girl who served us (unfortunately I don't remember the name, but she told us that she received the proposal wedding in Italy…) I chose a glass of very good Polish red. Starter with duck ham and green apple gel, then gurnard with peach puree with roasted carrots for some and Wagyu cheeseburger for others, all delicious. Price around €35 per person. Absolutely recommended.

We had been told about Canis and stumbled across the front door and luckily got a table for 2. It is advisable to book as we couldn't get in as a large group. The staff are all friendly, knowledgeable about the food, the wine and the previous use of the building. It had been narrowly missed being bombed in the war and had been a hotel and club The food was delightful we shared a veggie cannolli deep fried cannolli with woodland mushroom pate it was lovely. Whilst he went of the lamb cooked 2 ways I went for the veggie dumplings both meal arrived with yellow carrot puree delicious a d various accompaniments the food was sublime ...we always score our meal out of 10 first time we both gave a 10. We shared a Jerusalem artichoke parfait out of curiosity it was gorgeous There was nothing to fault I just wished we lived nearer
