On our first visit, We were too new to Warsaw and I was hesitant to compare it to other places. Therefore I decided to wait and give it a second chance in the future. Today, after three months of trying over 30 restaurants in the area, I can confirmed my initial thoughts: I have mix reviews about this place, and I am not inspire to go back. In summary: Food looks - great Food flavor - doubtful, misleading Price - high for the quality Service - excellent If you are looking to celebrate an occasion with great service, is a good place. But if you are looking into enjoying the smell, flavor and aftertaste of quality food, I do not recommend. The looks could be misleading... I am happy to recommend other places in the area where you have found much inspiration and have had delightful meals. My thoughts, of course nothing is said until you try for yourself.

The verdict: Pros: -Amuse Bouche was a nice touch - ingredients were very fresh albeit simple -Best soup I've ever had. I'm a sucker for anything truffle-related, but my friend also agreed that the potato soup surpassed all expectations. Creamy, with a punch of spicy chorizo chip and surprisingly filling -Main course was presented tastefully. I appreciated the unconventional hot clay plate it was served on, and the little tomato purée designs Cons: -We were (expectedly) charged for water, but it was 15 złoty (around $4). Wtf?

Absolutely unacceptable customer service and treatment…read more I am Muslim and I do not eat pork for religious reasons. Before ordering, we had already asked whether another item could be changed from pork to beef and were told no. Later, we asked about a pizza option and the employee agreed. We misunderstood "cotto," believing it referred to cheese because there was another truffle and cheese option on the menu. As soon as the pizza arrived and we realized it contained pork, I immediately explained that I am Muslim and cannot eat pork. Instead of showing basic understanding or trying to resolve the issue, the only response was offering a takeaway box. I clearly said I did not want a takeaway box and asked for the pizza to be removed from the table because I did not want pork sitting in front of me. The employee then brought the box back and threw it onto our table in a disrespectful manner. We asked to speak with a manager expecting professionalism and assistance. Instead, the manager offered absolutely no solution and immediately dismissed the situation. We even asked them to check cameras or recordings if available because we felt we were not being listened to or believed. For around 20 minutes we repeatedly asked for the pizza to be removed from our table and were ignored. I was not asking for free food. I was not demanding special treatment. I was asking for basic respect and a reasonable level of customer service. As a 20-year-old customer, I was left so humiliated and distressed in public that I ended up crying. No customer should ever be treated this way. I am also attaching the receipt showing that we were still charged for the pizza. Deeply disappointing, unprofessional, and completely unacceptable.

It was incredibly loud due to the music, to the point where our ears were almost ringing once we were out. I was the last to join and ordered a wine, and it took past us ordering dinner and the delivery of dinner to receive the drink. No major problem, it just wasn't great service. I also was given a much more expensive glass than I ordered, which I only realized once I had the bill. The food was good, but the overall experience was just ok this time.

First, the late evening visit for dinner was cool b/c it was not busy and I was seated outside. I love the garden /patio feel to the restaurant. Inside, if you prefer to sit, there is a large restaurant setup, very comfy with an open kitchen, visible to pretty much everyone in the restaurant on the first and second floor. The food was exceptional. It was my first night in Warsaw and wanted to experience a modern take on tPolish dishes. The cold beet soup, beet greens with a quail egg was super delicious. The schnitzel was excellent and it came with unforgettable mashed potatoes and a cold cucumber, yogurt and dill salad. I also tried red Polish wine, a Cabernet. And that too was also very good. Service was super attentive granted I came at 10 o'clock in the evening on a weeknight, and English was spoken fluently by everyone I dealt with. This is a converted factory space , it is in the middle of an island of businesses, so your Uber driver will pick you up about 200 feet to the left of the restaurant as you walk out. Definitely will come back, on my next visit to Warsaw. End of Yelp.

My wife, daughter and I had a nice lunch at Warszawa Wschodnia during our recent trip to Warsaw…read more The food was excellent but the highlight was our delicious but unexpected borscht. We Ubered to the restaurant to walk afterward around the revitalized Praga District. The other clientele looked like trendy office workers so the staff was moving quickly to service the lunch hour crowd. The server asked us if we wanted the regular menu or "the lunch menu". It was lunchtime so we asked for "the lunch menu". We expected the server to return with a menu with lunchtime options - but instead less than a minute later the borscht arrived. It turns out "the lunch menu" was a 3-course prix fixe option and borscht was the 1st dish. We probably wouldn't all have ordered it had we understood but it was delicious with a beautiful beet red color and a pleasantly sour flavor. The main was a nice pasta with salmon and the dessert was an excellent pastry. We sat on the patio which was lovely. Very comfortable. Great restaurant with excellent food. In particular we loved our accidental borscht!

Classy, clean, but poor food preparation…read more Food: We ordered two entrées: pork chop on the bone and halibut dinner special. (1) The halibut was served on a bed of quinoa with fresh veggies. The fish was very fresh well prepared with crispy skin. (2) The pork chop was severely undercooked and almost raw at the bone. After just one bite, I asked the waiter to have the pork chop cooked completely, and he complied. The pork chop was very fatty with hardly any meat; and the meat had very little flavor. The pork chop was served with baby potatoes that were cooked well and small pieces of corn on the cob. The corn was very difficult to eat since it was sliced into unmanageable cob bits. Service: Service was good. When we asked to have to pork chop fully cooked, our waiter quickly took care of it. Our waiter spoke good English. Ambiance: classy yet relaxed Overall: Cleanliness is exceptional. Wifi: They do provide free WIFI, but require a Facebook to login. They will provide a password to bypass Facebook.

First thing you notice is the ambiance; I was seated outside in their courtyard, which is a secluded oasis tucked away from the street. Service was friendly but relaxed. I started with a glass of wine and the herring nigiri appetizer. Prior to coming here, I was pretty unfamiliar with the cuisine of Poland and surrounds, so the herring was a fully new type of flavor for me. The presentation was beautiful, the type of dish inventive, and the flavors themselves delicious and well- balanced. My second dish, the cauliflower, was very creatively prepared and was also delicious, if unfortunately slightly on the saltier side. I ended with the scallop ceviche risotto. WOW. This is the BEST risotto I have ever had. It's hard to describe; the interplay between the flavors was unmatched - and all the ingredients were as fresh as can be. I still dream of this risotto to this day.

For a weeknight, they were packed! Also, the entrance is tucked away from the main street. Look for and follow the sign to lead you to the entrance. The first thing you see as you entered the restaurant is bottles and bottles of wine on the shelves. I really can't tell you the overall space because I felt like I went from one room to another, pass the kitchen, through another room and was seated in a small room with about 6 or 7 tables. It's almost like a maze. I can tell most of the patron are locals. Friends meeting after work for drinks and a quick bite to eat. I know I'm in the right place :-) The menu is small and seasonal with the intention to order/taste every dish because the portion is small too. We started off with Bulion, which is a broth soup with duck dumplings. It was delicious and savory. The ginger in the broth soup warmed my stomach. It was exactly what I needed for our first night in Warsaw. According to other yelpers, we have to order the beef tartare. I'm not big on raw beef but it tasted better than I expected. The beef tartare is served on top of potato pancake. The potato sort of mellow out the raw meat taste. Great presentation! Chicken Liver Parfait served on a buttermilk bread was probably my favorite dish. I know liver is not for the faint of heart, but when it's done right, it's chef kiss! Chicken liver is incredibly good for us and a nutrient-dense superfood packed with protein and vitamins. I wish I can see more dishes like this served in the states. Foie Gras sales and production is strictly restricted in most states. We just have to try it whenever we are in Europe. YOLO! It's rich and buttery and served on a even more buttery brioche. Very filling. Skrei was a fish dish that we should of skipped. It was served on a big pile of foam and herbs with very little fish (see pic.). It's something I expect at a high end 13 course tasting menu, not at a wine bar. We each had a glass of Badenhorst Family White Wine. It wasn't the best I had but it works for the occasion. Tips: Service is slow and that's just how the European roll. Be patience and enjoy the view and take in the moment that you're in Poland! They charge for water and 10% service charge.
