After a full morning of walking the city on a private tour, we were famished, and just wanted to relax. This fit the bill for us. (we cannot speak to the interior or anything else -- we were only outside). I ordered a Cuba Libre (when in Rome?) and it was made with Pepsi! I didn't learn until later why the Soviet Bloc countries only have Pepsi . . . such an interesting experience! We split the calamari with olives and onions -- it was spectacular and full of grilled flavor. I had the avocado salad with shrimp -- it was packed with fresh toppings and tasted great. It's a little different than going for traditional fare when traveling, but had been recommended by our local friend and we really enjoyed it.

During our brief time there, learned that they are of Guatemalan heritage. The menu was an eclectic mix of Latin and Spanish foods. My son and I ordered the Plato Chapin, which included three tacos and two empanadas, along with a few chips. My wife settled on just the tacos. In a rare moment, we all agreed the food was excellent. Of the two empanadas, I enjoyed the beef better than the cheese. Very happy that we found this place and would recommend it to anyone that yearns for a really good meal with really nice people.

The chicken and beef taquitos are great and the combination of Spanish tapas and Latin American dishes offer a lovely variety of dishes. In the end, we let the owner know that 16 years ago, they were kind to me and that they have been so appreciated since. They were not surprised to hear about all of the microaggressions and bigotry I dealt with in Prague in 2006-2007, but assured me that as it's become more cosmopolitan, much of that archaic thinking is changing. I hope so, but if you're ever in need of warm welcomes and good food, El Centro is your place.

My wife and I stumbled upon this place while looking for a restaurant near our hotel in Prague,…read morehaving no idea what we were about to experience. We ducked through a doorway clearly not designed for anyone over six feet and were immediately greeted by the man we later learned was the owner. I'm a classic beef-and-potatoes American eater, so the small-plate menu wasn't something I'd normally gravitate toward. But I couldn't have been more wrong. We shared several dishes -- deer, prawns, eggplant, goat cheese -- all things I wouldn't usually order, and every single plate was phenomenal. Even the drinks were memorable. The owner talked me out of a Coca-Cola and into their iced tea, which turned out to be incredible. We ended the meal with cappuccinos that were just as impressive. Every part of the experience introduced us to new flavors and combinations we never expected to love. It might honestly be the best restaurant I've ever visited. The owner was welcoming, friendly, and guided us through the menu like a tour of flavor town. We visited on a Monday without a reservation and were very lucky to get a table. For about $90 USD, we enjoyed a glass of wine, an iced tea, seven different small plates, two desserts, and coffee -- a meal that would easily cost over $200 back in the States. If you're in Prague and want an exceptional meal served by people who treat you like family, Kofein is the place. Call ahead if you can -- you won't be disappointed.

So it's quite a shock to the system when coming from Western Europe where dinner doesn't start until eight and bars don't get going until ten at the earliest. Useful tip: in Prague, dinner is at 6/7 and you should be tucked into bed by midnight. Anyhoo, back to this place. Excellent wine at very reasonable prices (about 4-6 euros each). Open, welcoming space that feels inviting. Helpful staff who know the wine and explain it well in English. But, as I said, the fluorescent lighting was a bit much. But this seems to be a going theme in Prague. Perhaps they like a well-lit meal? Wine drinking tip in the Czech Republic: the red wine are not great. They tend to have Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish wines on the menu (thumbing their nose at France perhaps?) for the red drinkers. I did not try the whites, but I hear they are good. All in all, this place was a win.
