Having read the reviews on TripAdvisor and the restaurants web page I had expectations that weren't fulfilled. The web page and the reviews make it seem like a high end fine dining restaurant, which is far from the truth. It is not a hidden gem,...it's not fine dining but it is a decent-ish way to have something to eat without leaving the hotel. Not a great way, but a decent one.
The atmosphere felt kind of stiff, which is weird considering the standard when it comes to the food. I really enjoy relaxed fine dining restaurants and this was the opposite - stiff and mediocre.
Almost decent service, edible but bland food and playful plating that made me feel like they were trying to hard considering how the basics(the taste) weren't good enough. Overcooked salmon and overall quite bland food. The wine list is poor. Probably the first time in my life that I chose a VdT because it seemed like the best wine available. Mostly cheap VdT and polish wines I've never heard of and none of the two wines I had tasted good enough for me to finish the glass (don't know if they sell better wines by the bottle, but since my girlfriend doesn't drink wine I chose not to drink an entire bottle by myself...).
Also, tiny portions and my girlfriend was still hungry after the dinner. Sure, it's the restaurant available at the Galaxy hotel and I see the point of having dinner at the hotel sometimes, but do not make the mistake of thinking this is a great restaurant. During our weekend in Kraków we also had dinner at Starka and Pod Baranem and enjoyed both of them very much, and I would recommend either of them over Andromeda Alfa even if it means taking a taxi after a long day. And I want to make it clear that I didn't expect Michelin-level of food or service, I just hoped it would be a hidden gem or at least a good meal. It turned out to be neither.More
