It is indeed in a touristy area, but after having walked a few dozen miles in Prague already, on the last night, close proximity and convenience trumps everything else. We made a reservation online and when we arrived we were promptly led to a table in white tablecloth right next to the window in the dining room. For appetizer, we shared a dozen SNAILS - yes, in Prague, even in a French restaurant, they call them snails, not escargots. In fact, Central Europeans had a long tradition of eating snails even before the French made this delicacy famous. The escargots, ok..., snails, were cooked in rich garlic butter mixed with parsley (that's what the green stuff is just in case you are wondering.) They were delicious, and almost as good as those from the streets of Paris. The CHATEAUBRIAND was brought to us on a carving board together with bone marrow, side dishes of vegetables and mashed potatoes, and a sauce boat full of yummy peppery gravy. Our server carved the beef nicely and plated the dishes meticulously at our table side. The beef was melt-in-your-mouth tender and very flavorful. We could easily tell this was top quality filet mignon and nothing less than the best cut. For the side dishes, I particularly liked the mashed potatoes which tasted like they were made with fresh and naturally creamy potatoes. The peppercorn sauce was rich but not overwhelming, subtly complementing the natural flavor of the steak. Service was 5-star throughout our meal. It began with a complimentary "water melon with bacon" palate cleanser, and ended with complimentary house-made chocolate at the conclusion of our meal. Service was attentive, friendly, prompt but not rushed, and literally white-glove throughout the night. You want me to give you a reason for visiting Brasserie La Gare, or Prague in general? This meal, including two large beers and two glasses of reasonably good wine, cost less than CZK 2,000 which is about US$90. Wanna go?

We were so looking forward to dinner at your beautiful restaurant, which I booked many months in…read moreadvance on my daughter's recommendation. At first we were thrilled with our server's recommendations and excellent attention, as well as with the cocktails, food, and gorgeous ambiance. The problem occurred toward the end of the evening. Our server cleared our dishes and asked if we were interested in dessert. We said we would be happy to consider the choices. He left us and got busy with another party, which we understood, so waited for about 20 minutes. One of his colleagues passed by and we mentioned that we were waiting. We saw her tell our server, who still did not make time to check in with us. After waiting even longer, one member of our party--originally from England, which becomes important later--got up, found the server, and asked if we could get the dessert menu. Finally he came to our table. He did not apologize for the wait (all he needed to say was that he had gotten swamped, and we would have been fine with that small explanation). Instead, he said, "The hardest part is waiting," mentioned there is no actual dessert menu, then left and came back with a board showing us some of the desserts, explaining what they were. He was obviously irritated with us and so we opted to end the evening and asked for the check. He brought it quickly and pointedly explained that we could tip him. We were uninterested in rewarding his rudeness and did not tip him. Then he insultingly said to our English friend, who was paying: "I didn't think you had an American accent." This was so unprofessional. We go out of our way to be gracious when we travel, not wanting to be seen as "ugly Americans." We tip almost everyone and generously. Your server's increasing rudeness and growing irritation with us was completely uncalled for, and we are so disappointed to have this memory of an otherwise wonderful few days in your beautiful city.

They have plenty of space, so no problem getting seated. I love the old-fashioned touch of checking your coat with the concierge, as well as the way they handle bread service and other small things bringing you back to 1920. Service is very attentive -- they always announce what's being served. I had the salmon tartare to start, followed by the sea bass, both deliciously prepared and wonderfully fresh-tasting with a hint of lemon. Portions are rather small and prices are on the higher side for the Czech Republic. You have to try the crêpes suzette -- they prepare it tableside, quite a show.

The accompanying seasonal ratatouille and asparagus spear were perfectly cooked. My wife had the beef bourgignon which was some of the best I've tasted. She was very happy.

If you were planning to visit that spot on your visit, you could pair it with a lunch here. Not too close to Old Town, which was also nice.

We were able to make some simple substitutions without any issues, which I did appreciate as I chose two apps and no dessert. All the dishes were incredibly light and flavorful, as you might expect.

We were charged for a bread basket that we did not request which should always be complementary anyway in a fine dining experience. My daughter specifically told the waiter that she doesn't drink alcohol so she ordered what she thought was a peach mocktail, based on the server's subsequent recommendation. Shortly afterwards, the waiter brought her an alcoholic cocktail. She said she couldn't drink it and sent it back re-explaining her situation of no alcohol. The waiter made a big deal over it, all the while smiling, and glancing at his coworkers for support. Grudgingly, he took the drink away and she was charged for the entire drink and was left with only a quarter can of Red Bull, (part of the drink) which was what was left after the original incorrect drink. Our waiter was argumentative and arrogant rather than service- oriented. This should never be anyone's experience in a fine dining restaurant. We ordered salads, seared deer, and mountain sheep. Everything was delicious.
