I didn't want to come across as an ugly American but I finally had to ask to be moved. Our waiter was great. We end up in a booth by the beer taps and it was decently quiet but fun to watch the interaction between the wait staff and the bartenders. Our waiter was great especially after we attempted our mediocre beginner Polish and ordered a couple rounds of Cytrynówka. Food was great. We'll be back this summer!

This place is enormous and has a great location just outside Cloth Hall in Rynek Glowny. We wanted…read moreto grab a seat and people watch while we grabbed a bite, and this place for the bill. We ordered a pork schnitzel, fried potatoes with bacon, and a coffee with ice cream. There was plenty of think bacon on the potatoes, night to be honest, I did not care for them, as I think there was too much dill for my liking. The schnitzel was good. I can't figure out how the get the meat pounded so thin, but I like it! It was literally as big as my plate! We ended the meal with cherry liqueur. This place has decent food, but location is fantastic, especially for people watching.

I thought the salmon could have been cooked a little better, it was a tad dry. The potatoes and asparagus were great. Honestly, I'd rather see less potatoes and more asparagus but that's just personal preference. They have gluten free options but no gluten free bread, which is a bummer for this caliber restaurant. They did bring out some carrots, celery, and I think daikon. I preferred the daikon over the other two. There are many places in Krakow to try but this place will stay on my "will go back" list.

The rabbit croquettes and braised lamb entree were probably the two best meat-based plates that I had in Poland. They had an excellent old fashioned and good beer options, as well. My last comment is that I appreciated the server's regular attention. Though their English was limited, they went out of their way to check up on us, top off drinks, and ask about how our time in Krakow had been.

I stopped in based on online reviews and reviewing their menu outside. My lunch experience definitely did not disappoint! Bread came our fresh and piping hot which was perfect for a chilly day. I was tempted on the tasting menu, but knew I wasn't hungry enough to enjoy it. Instead I ordered two specials: the Polish Rye soup with quail eggs and chicken livers over toast. The soup was absolutely delicious, as were the chicken livers. The service was fantastic. I hope to see Appertif in more reviews in the future, as it is certainly deserving.

Aperitif is one of those places where you can seek for shelter in winter and have their hot (as in…read moreslightly spicy) fish/seafood soup, AND also spoil yourself with a very affordable chicken burger (grilled chicken breast in ciabatta) from their lunch menu in their little back garden, weather permissible. It has a Mediterranean-like feel in terms of the interior and this is also reflected in the seasonal menu that keeps changing from time to time. What I appreciate about this place is that I always feel very welcome and taken good care of while dining. The staff are professional and eager to help and communicating in English is not a problem. Aperitif is also an excellent place to organise larger dinner parties (i.e. for 60 people if even more!?) For such occasions they compose really nice menus with a few choices for each course which eases the speed at which everyone makes their order. Everyone wins! The chocolate fondant is an absolute hit by the way- this alone is worth the visit!

So make sure your reservation is for where you want to sit! I had to try the homemade vodka. Got the apple and cinnamon, wow sweet and warm! Cheers. Lovely bread with a dip that has hints of chives and red pepper corns. We had to start with Mix dumplings- ruskie ( potato and cheese), spinach, beef cheeks. No favorites yet the best porgies we have had in Krakow . They are all delightful. My wife loved the spinach. Great way to start for two people. My wife had the chicken breast and I had the pork tenderloin. My wife thought the chicken was great and enjoyed the parsnips. The pork's is fantastic! You can't go wrong! Enjoy. My only negative is the selection of music playing. It is more modern and rocking than seems fitting for this very elegant restaurant. But did not ruin our experience.

When we visited around noon, there were only two parties ahead of us, so the wait wasn't bad at all. We ordered the daily special, a chicken cordon bleu served with potatoes and a side of vegetables that tasted a bit like coleslaw. We also tried two kinds of fried pierogi: spinach and feta, and pickled cabbage with white mushrooms. It was my first time trying pierogi, and I really enjoyed them. They reminded me of dumplings, but were served with sour cream on the side, which added a nice touch. Ordering was very straightforward. You simply place your order at the counter, and the staff will bring the food to your table. The prices are very reasonable, and the portions are generous.

We came back and waited for a table at lunch on a Tuesday, but were seated in ~10mins and the service was speedy.

The restaurant itself is simple inside, but comfortable (other than the lack of A/C or fans in the summer.

We came during prime dinner time and we got lucky enough to get seated at a table without a reservation. That being said, this place was busy! So definitely book a reservation if you want to come, I think we just got lucky that day. I ordered the New York strip with buttered spinach and baked sweet potato. ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! The steak was not overly salty, it's got just the right amount of smokiness to it. Great texure, not chewy at all, just melts in your mouth. The sides were cooked perfectly, I literally have nothing to add. We also ordered a fruit salad, which was extremely fresh and also refreshing to counterbalance the heaviness of the main entree. Server was very busy attending another large party, but still made sure to check in on us once in a while. Gosh if I ever come back to Krakow, I'm definitely paying this place another visit. Of note, there is the Little Market Square that is extremely close to this restaurant. Definitely also worth a visit if you happen to come here for a meal.

After googling and seeing positive recommendations for this restaurant we decided to spend one of our three nights in Krakow dining at Pimiento... what a mistake On arrival the manager looked us up and down head to toe and told us he only had space in the garden, we accepted the table to receive the worst service I have received in a restaurant of this standard. The waiters were rude start to finish, we topped up our own wine whilst watching others around us being topped up, not one person asked if we enjoyed our meal or if our meat was cooked to our liking (which it wasn't) whilst they asked most other tables. We waited 25 mins after finishing our main course before anyone asked if we would like dessert or our bill, I had to call the waiter out. The main waiter in the garden didn't serve us but served every other table. Absolutely appalled by the service at this restaurant, I'm well travelled and eat in good restaurants and I've never paid good money for a meal and received such terrible service. Safe to say I won't be back I'd also like to clarify that as much as we were smart casual we were in no way dressed in such a manner to receive this level of service... disgusting. I definitely would not recommend dining at this restaurant. I asked to speak to a manager and then response I received was "well how much do you want to pay?" I asked if I could at least have an apology and he told me my experience and his experience is different despite the fact he wasn't there to witness any of it. Shocked!
