We wanted to try authentic Czech cuisine while we were in Prague. Restaurace Mincovna did not disappoint. Food was exquisite. Try the sausage appetizer and finish with plum brandy and cappuccino. Servers were very friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. read more

Yum! We went here for an early dinner (~5pm) on a Friday and were thankfully able to be seated right away with no reservation. We ordered a raspberry lemonade (delicious and refreshing!) and a Pilsner and the fried cheese to start. The fried cheese was good, especially when mixed with the spinach and cranberry sauce, but forewarning, it is very strong & stinky cheese! We then ordered the duck thigh and potato gnocchi which were both so delicious with a side mix salad which was so fresh. read more

We were seated and offered drinks immediately! The local beer is a Pilsner and is great! We sat at the bar and it is very busy and lively! Very fun. Food was very very good and beautifully plated! The beef in cream sauce was a tad on the sweet side, which we were not expecting. This is on the more expensive side for Prague dining, but very good food! We paid about 20 usd per person! read more

We walked past quite a few tables and a flight of stairs to our table. We sat in a wine cellar that was repurposed into a dining area. There wasn't anything on the menu I really wanted to try. I decided to go with two appetizers. The first was the goose liver pate. I didn't like the red wine jelly layer. The sourdough bread was also too dense. The other appetizer was the wild mushroom on butter. The mushrooms were quite salty, but I liked the deep fried egg. I'm glad I wasn't too hungry to start with. read more

We came in on a Sunday afternoon and were seated immediately. My goulash with roasted vegetables and ginger lemonade was superb. My friend had the sausage appetizer and the gnocchi entree. I tried them both, and they were delicious as well. Our waiter, Richard, was excellent. I've seen recommendations to avoid restaurants in Old Town because they are often tourist traps, but this place is an exception! Try it read more

More of a 3.5 star. Convenient spot that served traditional dishes like Beef Goulash. Their Gnocci was also pretty filling. Overall, it was okay if you need something in the area but it didn't stand out to me enough to say I'd return. Crowd can be a bit rowdy depending on your luck. 1-2 big groups were there and acted a bit drunk. It was nice staff were aware and at least tried to assure us they would be leaving soon. read more

Great traditional Czech food right next to the Old Town Square. Traditional Beef Goulash (355 CZK)- This classic Czech dish was quite tasty with tender pieces of beef in sauce to go with soft potato "dumplings" (although they're more like soft potato logs). Somehow they got the potato to be particularly creamy and moist, almost like a bread kind of consistency. The price is reasonable considering the touristy location, although the portion size was on the smaller side. Environment: The interior is pretty large with a homey traditional kind of vibe. There is a bar area and also some outdoor seating as well. It wasn't that busy when I went for dinner and there was a casual atmosphere. Service: The staff are friendly and attentive. The service speed was super fast. My only complaint is that I asked for a raspberry nectar to drink but they ended up bringing me a cherry nectar instead (I ended up just drinking the cherry one and it was fine). Overall, Restaurace Mincovna is a great and continently located restaurant for traditional Czech cuisine - highly recommend. read more

The location of this restaurant is perfect! The service was incredible, from the time I walked in the door. I loved the dish I selected and the icing on the cake was their homemade lemonade. I will definitely be back. My server Petar was attentive, kind, and helpful! read more

I visited Prague for 3 nights in July of 2024 and wanted to eat at a couple of good restaurants. I picked this one (other than Cafe Imperial) based on web reviews and was not disappointed. I walked in without an appointment, but found a seat right away. I ordered the fresh river trout fillets, cream spinach, and pear juice. The food (and drink) came pretty quickly and was very tasty and plentiful. The service was great too. And I liked the ambiance. Overall, it was a very good dinner for about $40 USD. I would happily go there again if I visit Prague in future. read more

Food and service was fantastic. We had a very tall male waiter who was extremely charming and informative. Our sausage platter was just delicious. The braised beef and Goulash the best we have had on our trip. Our waiter convinced some of our party to get a more traditional Czech dish instead of goulash. This dish was creamy sweet and really good. Great place great atmosphere and wonderful staff. read more

Came here around 5:30 pm and the host was able to get me seated right away as a walk-in with no reservation. I ordered the traditional pork knee that comes on top of mash potatoes and a sweet gravy with a side of roasted onions. The reviews said it can feed two but I was able to finish it myself (haha). It was THAT good! Despite not being a beer drinker, I ordered the famous Pilsner Urquell and honestly it was such a light beer that I didn't mind it! Which says a lot about the beer! I can barely sip on one back home! After dinner, I was recommended to try the pear brandy (forgot the name, I'm sorry) but it's the only Czech one on the menu. My goodness.. when I tell you that was one of the best liqueurs I've ever tasted,, believe me. Wow! Overall, very lovely dining experience and I definitely recommend this place! read more

Formerly the mint, the décor of this place is super cool. The staff are super friendly and helpful. We had goulash, sausages, stewed beef, and duck. The duck was pure perfection and I would strongly encourage you to order it. The sausage was also excellent. The stewed beef and goulash were pretty good but paled in comparison. Also... definitely order the iced mint tea. It was amazing. read more

We stumbled upon this alternative restaurant after being directed to a different, and far too crowded restaurant -- and were so lucky we did -- truly excellent food, with great service. Seems very popular with locals, as well, which we always take as a good sign. The server was very helpful with gluten-free, which is such a wonderful experience in Europe -- they take it far more seriously than we do in the States. My husband had the grilled sausages; white asparagus with hollandaise and goulash; I had the duck rillettes (without bread) and the chicken breast. All were absolutely delicious -- the duck was flavorful and the chicken was juicy; the pea puree divine. My husband loved the unique sausages and said the asparagus and hollandaise were silky and fresh. If you find yourself in Prague, and in Old Town Square, you should also find yourself at Mincovna. read more

The food here is decent, but unfortunately I've realized that I'm just not that big of a fan of czech food. Goose liver pate and duck rilette was good, but the bread that it came with was extremely dense and didnt go that well with the appetizers. Beef goulash was exactly how I'd expect it to taste. Slightly on the heavier side for a meal. Topped it off with a salad which helped to balance out the entire meal. Pretty decent spot to try traditional czech food, but unfortunately just not my favorite. read more

Don't let the wait for a table discourage you, even with a reservation. This place is huge and worth the small wait. After a couple days of heavier Czech food, we were delighted with the salad with goat cheese, cucumber salad, and the fried cheese with cranberry and spinach. The traditional fare being served at nearby tables looked very good as well. The decor and modern interior added to our great experience here. read more

So lucky to be admitted to this popular local restaurant for lunch without a reservation! Our server was super friendly and happy! Amazing Czech food and great brewery decor inside! We ordered fish soup, beef goulash, duck confit and two beers!! The most wonderful fish soup and duck confit that I've had. Goulash is good as well but is not as outstanding as the other two. We tried to come back here for dinner without a reservation but were turned away. Please make reservations ahead if you don't want to miss this place! read more

Although it's located in Old Town and what you'd think would be tourist food, we were brought here by a local and it was excellent. He of course did all the ordering and got us these micro beers that were so fresh and delicious .... though I have no idea how to order. He also made me drink several glasses of schnapps (which unlike the shit you drink here in college, is actually really good stuff in Czech). We ordered several traditional dishes including the duck rillettes, beef tartare, pickled cheese and marinated trout with grapefruit. It was all very good but the standouts for me were the trout and beef. For entrees we had the beef in cream sauce and the baked pork belly - and I'd 100% order those again. Also of course, had to have the apple strudel. If you have 1 traditional Czech meal in Prague - come here and order the food I listed above. You won't be disappointed! Service / staff was EXCELLENT. read more

We were looking for a place to eat and we happen to walk past this place on our way to Narodni. We saw the yelp stickers and wasn't deterred by the long lines. There were 3 parties ahead of us but we were told that it would only take 15 minutes. So we waited patiently. We were seated fairly quickly. There was a large selection and it took us a while to make our decision. Hubby ordered the Duck thigh and I ordered the goulash. It was delicious. We weren't disappointed. We highly recommend this place. read more

We are here for the chocolate mousse. I think that's one thing I would miss from this town.

We were in Prague as one of the stops on our Eastern European vacation. We often found ourselves at the Old Town Square and noticed the restaurant so gave it a try for dinner one night. The vibe was nice and the menu looked interesting. I started with an asparagus soup and had the braised smoke brisket and my wife ordered the pork tenderloin. The food was delicious and the service by Deniska was wonderful. Would definitely recommend this restaurant. read more

Pros: Convenient location in Old Town. Two floors with ample space but comfortable ambience at moderate noise level. Energetic and knowledgeable sommelier. Great Czech food. Cons: Food came a bit too quickly to the extent that shocked us. Also the appetizer salad came with the main dishes. Better than slow but so quick that almost made us think like if it was already made. read more

Service was very quick, restaurant was clean and open, and the food was VERY good. We got the goulash and pig knuckle. While the pork knuckle was HUGE and my husband wasn't sure he could finish it, he ate every bite and was searching for more. I had tried goulash at a smaller restaurant the first night of our trip and thought that was the gold standard, but the one here definitely was a close contender! read more

Excellent food, service and ambiance right in the heart of Prague. Reasonably priced and not a tourist trap.

Food is fresh and delicious. The service is excellent. It was busy on a Sunday night. The trout fillet and cucumber salad were great. It's a noisy space but the tables are spaced well apart. Not the typical pork and beef dishes. read more

Although it's located on the fringe of the busy square, Mincovna came highly recommended as a place to get the best local cuisine. Fortunately, I was able to get reservations same day. For our entrees, we tried the soup, cucumber salad, fish, and pork. While all the food was ok, nothing wowed us. Service was ok, but I really liked that they had sommelier who provided great wine recommendations and frequently visited our table for refills. It deserves a half star just for that! Prices were fairly reasonable. All in all, everything was just ok. It's a decent option for food but IMO you're not missing much if you decide to skip it. read more

This restaurant was recommended by our hotel concierge at the Four Seasons. It is very close to the Old Town Square. It has an inviting and welcoming atmosphere and has traditional Czech menu items. At the suggestion of our waiter, we ordered the beef with cream sauce, which to Americans tastes a bit like pot roast with gravy. It came with large bread dumplings. It was very tasty and filling. They also had a nice selection of Czech local wines. The staff was also very friendly. It was nice to get out of the crowds from the square and enjoy a nice meal. We would recommend Mincovna! read more
