Food was delicious…read more HOMEMADE SPÄTZLE WITH CHERRY TOMATOES, AUBERGINE AND GOAT CHEESE 5/5 Each bite I took was flavorful, even if I just ate a peace of the pasta without anything on it. POTATO DUMPLINGS *modified menu item* 5/5 The modification was to not add bacon. I thought these were delicious! Perhaps they can provide an option with a sauce (maybe mushroom) to have a more flavorful vegetarian option. But in general, very tasty. HOMEMADE LEMONADE RASPBERRY 2/5 There are no lemons in this beverage. Though I was informed by my family that lemonade in Czech is interchangeable with juice, so having raspberry juice should have been the expectation. That being said, even as a raspberry juice it was mid. It tasted like raspberry flavored water. Though the hole raspberries that were added were so yummy Overall, it was a nice place to have dinner. I'm not sure if I'd go out of my way to recommend them to friends, as I am vegetarian so I couldn't try many of the meals. My family did like their meat dishes though, if that helps.

Warning : this is the definition of the idiom 'tourist trap.'…read more It's expensive. They don't give you a whole lot of meat, and the meal was not to my liking. I ordered -/ for the first time -- beef borsch . Borsch is considered a culinary staple to the believed Czech people. And I love them, but dom of their eatings are questionable ... First , Czechians use a very liberal definition of a dumpling .... A dumpling to me, is noodle or dough that often has a savory of sweet filling like pork, jelly. Heck even a pierogi is a type of dumpling with variations across European countries like Poland. Here, the 'dumpling' is nothing but a spongy doughy piece of bread . How is that a dumpling is a mystery to me. The borsch had some spice, but the blast radius of the aftermath made me rethink the quality of the meat, which was scant in the stew-bowl. With Pilsner and their complimentary sfter meal house-shot, I got to say this was too much money for Czech standard of living and comparable to the prices you'd be accustomed to paying in the USA or London. Not a good deal at all. Still, not the worst stew dish I've tasted and the customer service was pretty good.

We ordered the beef cheeks, which were served cold (likely as intended but not what I was expecting). Flavor was fine but not great. The burger was also just okay.

The vegetable patties were also crispy and balanced, slightly sweet. The beer list was limited but we liked what we ordered. Hate to be a broken record but we've had better while in the city.

The beer goulash on the other hand was interesting and hearty. I wouldn't classify it as wonderful, but decent, with sizable chunks of meat in there. Overall, the food was good, and worth the visit. RESTAURANT As is typical in Prague, water is expensive, and often more expensive that sodas or alcohols. I got a chuckle out of seeing things like whiskey being the same price as water. We got two ciders, which were absolutely delicious. The service was also friendly, which was nice. The decor is interesting, and the seating quite comfortably spaced out. ADVICE One thing - if you plan on using your credit card, I do recommend that you tell them to use the local currency, CZK, when charging the card. I'm not sure why they decided to go with USD without asking me, as it literally offers zero benefits to a foreigner, and all the negatives. For those wondering, if you have a card that doesn't waive foreign transaction fees, using USD doesn't prevent your card from charging the fees. The fee is for foreign transactions, not foreign currency. If you have a card that waives those fees, you're obviously losing out by charging to USD, as the exchange rate is awful.

The interior is beautiful and has a lot of historic charm, which really adds to the experience. Service was also excellent--everyone was professional, attentive, and welcoming. Unfortunately, the food was a bit of a letdown. I ordered the slow-braised beef shank, but the meat was surprisingly tough and didn't have that fall-apart tenderness I was hoping for.

I really wanted to love the food given the beautiful setting and all the recommendations, but unfortunately, it just didn't quite live up to the expectations.
