Balkanski kociol is a restaurant with Balkan cuisine, which i was excited to try…read more Balkan music and what i guess traditional interior. What deserve a star is a very nice service - very professional, helpful. We ordered Palačinke od tikvicaas a starter - zucchini pancakes with 2 types of sauces: jogurt with mint and tomatoe. It was ok. As I wasn't very hungry I decided to go with Škampi na salati - shrimp (5) salad with kiwi+lime+mint dressing. I thought it's going to be delicious. Unfortunately salad was soaked in the sauce - mushy and soggy. My BF got Jagnjeća pljeskavica, our friend picked Creme de la creme - different kind of veal. As I don't eat veal I'm not going to review their choices. I can only add that my BF said his dish was so so. I might not be a fun of Balkan cuisine but if you are (as our friend) you will enjoy this place. It's a little price, but portions are big.

Excellent service. English menus available at request. More importantly the food was excellent…read more Well cooked meat, plenty of sauces, and fresh bread. It is a little expensive, but you get your money's worth.

Eating meat is bad for the planet... Yet it is so tasty! At least it can be. And at "Pogromcy" it…read morecertainly is. The meat is prepared in many ways, not so common in Poland - including decent pastrami and mouth-watering tongue, served in a simple bun or bread. Perfect for a quick lunch or after-work, simple dinner. As for the planet - if you're a meat-eater like me, save a buck for some of it that is more expensive, but better in quality. And eat veggies next day.

The veggie sandwich is to die for. The beats and the pesto make a party in your mouth and it's…read moreamazing. That being said, I had the impression that the staff were irritated to see me come in and which made me kinda eat everything as quickly as possible and leave. In short: not a very welcoming atmosphere. But I will certainly come back for the veggie sandwich. Just have it as a takeout, though.

Thanks for the reviews. Hearing that they play the much hated CNN on blast and you cannot avoid it…read morewe will never go here! And I m looking at starting my own restaurant in Poland! Doesn't matter though the reviews here are terrible. People want good American food not the anti-American politics of CNN!

Really cool decor inside, kinda like pink flamingo (also in Warsaw, check it out) but more of a…read moresports bar vibe. They sat me at my table and then I realized they had 6 TVs all with CNN blaring on each of them ha so I just got up and left. I just can't listen to that while eating. It didn't make any sense to me. Servers seemed nice and the menu looked basic but good.

At the recommendation of a friend of a work-mate, our work group came here for dinner. What a…read morefantastic recommendation! The vibe is pretty chill and casual, with lots of the tables under big tents. It was nice and airy. The staff was super helpful in finding us a table for 8 without a wait. Our server did a great job with our various orders. The food came out pretty quickly, and every dish we ordered was delicious! It's definitely a great place for a group. They had live music going, too. When I walked around a bit, I also saw a nice play area for kiddos!

Before I say anything about food/service/ambiance let me explain why ONE star - the place is…read moreINFESTED WITH RATS. So if you like rat droppings in you salad or if you take your dog there and you let it drink from water bowls provided - you run the risk of infection. They are not a bad place but I believe the way the bulting is designed makes it vulnarable for rodent infestation. I have been to countless restaurants in my life but Lolek has dubious distinction to be the only one where I saw big fat rat running under the tables. Now food... (with or without rat dropping - sadly I spotted the rat at the end of the meal). Menu is OK but the actual dishes are slightly on a bland side. I ordered grilled veggies and was hoping they would come with some sauces to break the oilyness - maybe concentrated balsamic vinegar, wasabi or Miso. But no - oily veggies, oily toast - served with olive oil in a dipping bowl. But overal I thought it was acceptable - even if it begs for improvement. Service was very professional - prompt and nice - without overbearing. Ambiance is definitely a plus for the place - long wooden tables - perfect for larger gatherings, reunions etc. A chimney opened to the room - possibly emitting some CO but nice nevertheless. The place actually BEGS to have music open mic, Irish session etc. They have giant potential and could draw some crowds doing that. After they fix the rat issue.

There is a weird cutoff time for breakfasts and if you show up on time but have to wait in line to get in, they wont let you order it. Overall my recent experience there is not good.

The Hummus was the best we have had in Warsaw, creamy and delicious! The falafel were perfectly seasoned and tasty as was the tabouleh was prepared perfectly and the pita was also wonderful! A pot of Lebanese tea complemented the meal perfectly! Everything that we ate was prepared with skill and love, the flavors were spot on and the service was great. The hummus and tabouleh were so tasty that we ordered some to take home with us. We will visit Asado for another wonderful meal very soon.

Their "Mezze Dip Supreme" came with a selection of three dips and was a great way to taste a bunch of different mezzes--there's the creamy hummus, of course, topped with chickpeas and olive oil; I also ordered the thick, creamy baba ghanoush and the bright, earthy muhamara, made with walnuts, red bell peppers, and pomegranate syrup. Instead of normal pita bread, the trio of dips came with a basket of crispy baked pita chip rounds dusted with za'atar, which were addictingly delicious and were a salty bar snack that will definitely get you coming back for more and more drinks!
