Visited Boscaiola as we fancied an Italian, this was top recommended on Google and we can totally see why! The service was brilliant and food was fantastic - definitely recommend the Boscaiola pizza and the tiramisu was delicious, so light and creamy. Really nice vibe...in the restaurant, quiet but still had a ‘buzz’. We each had 2 courses and an alcoholic drink, plus limoncello to finish and it came to GBP50.00. Absolutely cannot fault it and would recommend to anyone looking for an Italian meal in Krakow.More

I RECOMMEND this place, the service is nice and competent. They serve 4 large olives as a free starter, probably the best I've had in Polish conditions. Bruchetta with a phenomenal mix of tomatoes - you have the impression that you are tasting vegetarian tartare...- an amazing TASTING experience. Queen of the Polish table 😉 PIZZA - Excellent - top-class dough and ingredients. It was the first time I had eaten boletus on pizza, it turned out to be delicious - it was a journey ... "from Poland to Italy". In a word 5/5.More

Absolutely great evening, excellent service and lovely food. A fun and relaxed evening for a family of 5. We’d been to Boccanera a couple of nights before which was fine but this place - best Italian we’ve been to for some time - probably since...being in Italy. If you go to one Italian on your visit go to this one. 👌More

Walked in here for dinner. No waiting. Sat down and realized that we had been there before on last trip 6 years ago. Great food, great service and lovely place for a relaxing dinner. Similar menu to most of the Italian restaurants but food was...fresh, tasty and good portions. 2 courses and a bottle of wine for £28 a head.. ideal.More

Gorgeous restaurant, upstairs and the basement. The food was extremely good, rich in flavour and good portion size. The service was very quick and our waitress was very attentive. We had a starter and main but couldn’t fit in a dessert. They even gave us...some biscuits to go home with, which went down very well with a cuppa later on. Overall we had a lovely time here and would highly recommend.More

We were almost dragged in by a woman on the street advertising the shop and raving about how good the food was. After eating here, I can say that the food is great but slightly on the expensive side compared to other Italian restaurants in...the area.More

Came here and didn't regret it. Pretty big place with a good atmosphere. Pine nuts and porcini (white) mushroom pizza is one of the most delicious combinations I've tried. I haven't seen this anywhere before. This simply divine, gently creamy mushroom taste has remained in...my head for a long time and pulls me back and order this pizza again. I advise everyone, do not pass by! Other than that, the chocolate fondant was good, but it's pretty much the same everywhere.More

We originally tried to book months in advance RISTORANTE SANT'ANTIOCO, however no one got back to me so we booked here. I’m so sorry we even contemplated going to the first restaurant as this one was so special and memorable. We were took downstairs to...our table, I was a bit apprehensive as I thought we’d be forgotten on a lower level and out of the main ambiance of the restaurant. I was so wrong. Downstairs is breathtakingly stunning! It’s like an underground cave but something you’d find in southern Italy or Greece however in Krakow! Service is very professional and swift. Food was unbelievable. The tartare starter and goats cheese were to die for. Followed by a tasty lasagna (unusually presented I may add but tasty) and burrata pasta. And of course it had to be finished by a tiramisu. Great selection on the wine list too.More

We arrived in Krakow late afternoon - settled into our aparthotel and then headed to the Christmas market in the old town market square. After listening to some lovely choir singing and browsing the stalls we set off to this restaurant that we spied on...our way to the square. We were escorted to the vaulted basement to a table and from there our evening was perfect! The Italian menu was as you would expect - the drinks also included mulled wine and grog (one of each ordered as it was -8 outside! They were delicious and warming). We had a mix of pizza and pasta between the three of us. The pasta dishes were very tasty, pasta just nicely al dente and the sauces with good depth of flavour. The pizza was beautifully cooked and just a nice bit of crunch to the base. Desserts of Tiramisu and cheesecake rounded off a terrific meal and the service was excellent! Price was really good value too!More

I reserved a 9:30pm table at Mamma Mia for my partners birthday , 3 weeks prior. When we arrived they were ‘closing early’ (why didn’t they contact us earlier to let us know is unknown to me). A man who I assume was the manager..., told us that he would book us a table at Boscaiola , their sister restaurant. So we headed there straight away. When we arrived we was told we had to order straight away as they were also closing, we was not allowed an extra 2 minutes to decide. We were also told that our starters and mains would all come out at the same time. We ordered 4 dishes (2 starters , 2 mains) , only 1 starter came out, 2 minutes later our mains followed and we felt like we were being watched throughout the entire meal to hurry up. Food was nice but we would avoid , rude and incompetent staff.More

I would say that this probably is the best Italian restaurant in Krakow, with even better service! I travelled by myself and it was the first time to visit Krakow, I was amazed at the way how Kasha was taking care of me! Thank you...for your hospitality!
