Kari's Rating 9.5/10…read more TLDR: -12/10 would come back! -Welcome shot was delicious -Rice is NOT included in the protein entrees -No shortage of Sauces My travel group and I have been in Prague for about four days and we've been rotating cuisines from traditional Czech, Italian, bakeries, candy shops, and now hitting Chinese. Coming from someone of Chinese descent, I thought the dishes were relatively authentic. A lot of the dishes we got included the Kung pow chicken, the braised, short rib, the drunken noodles, the black pepper, beef, and a Tom Kah soup. Not that I thought the soup would have be huge portion-but I wish the soup would have had a little bit more substance as it contained a slice of king oyster mushroom, a few noodles and a single piece of chicken. I did have to order rice on the side to substitute more of a substantial meal as this was considered my dinner. I was shocked that none of the protein oranges came with rice which I thought was a little bit weird but we all had a tag on a side of rice which was 68 crowns- or $3 .15. Again, not a huge deal, and the waiter did mention none of the dishes came with rice-so it was almost an automatic tag on. Definitely worth a stop in if you're in the area!

This is a beautiful, multilevel restaurant with an impressive design and interesting atmosphere…read more The space is definitely eye-catching, although some of the tables, especially on the lower level, are way too small for a group of five once all the dishes start arriving. We've even warned our server even before we started. The service was pleasant and responsive. A special thank you to Teresa V. for pleasant evening and for saving my glasses - really appreciated that!!! Unfortunately, the food was a major disappointment. Out of everything we ordered, the squid was probably the only thing that was somewhat enjoyable. We ordered three Tom Kha soups, and all were so salty that we had to send them back. The squid and calamari dish was okay only for the squid; the calamari was dry and over-fried. The curry sauce underneath was also confusing and completely covered the natural taste of the squid. The unagi wontons (2 orders) had a strange, rubbery texture, and the prawn ones were even harder to enjoy (left behind). To top it off, we were charged for a welcome drink?! Beautiful place and good service, but unfortunately, the food was far below expectations. For the price and reputation, this was a very disappointing experience, and I definitely won't be rushing back anytime soon.

Set in a…read morenondescript building and decorated in a very spartan way, Sansho delivers on what the focus should be on - the food. The 6 course tasting meal was fantastic. Chef's starter was a perfectly grilled pork neck. And then it kept getting better from there - Bloody Mary oyster shooter, salmon sashimi with citrus, soy and sesame (a standout) pork belly, lamb wrapped in what can only be described as two leaves that resembled the taste of black pepper and mint (unreal!), razorneck clams in a yuzu broth with grilled bread, soft shell crab sliders with horseradish on bao, and grilled pork with papaya salad and coconut rice (perfection!). Add to it wonderful cocktails and you have an amazing experience. Did I also say that our server was incredible and the price was incredibly reasonable at $70/person? Because he was and it was! Would come back again and again.

Located in a hotel…read morein the lower level, the Buddah-Bar is a darkly lit, upscale restaurant with red velvet chairs, golden embroidered linens and beautiful tablescapes. We were seated and menus given. There is a large selection of Thai-inspired food, as well as sushi, sashimi and other Asian dishes. We ordered cocktails and water which came out quickly. Our server took our orders; we had a tasty tom yum soup, vegetable spring rolls, and spicy edamame to start. We then had an amazing red curry shrimp and a tamarind Pad Thai. Honestly, the best Thai I've had in awhile. Service is prompt and friendly. Our waiters were accommodating and came by often to ask if we needed more cocktails or anything else. There's a hotel upstairs and it's located in the Old City part of Prague. The bill was $3200 Koruna which is about $114 USD, not including top. If I'm ever in Prague again, I'd definitely eat here.

The service was great, faster than most places in Praha. The only bad thing is the people smoking hookah pipes. This guy was sitting behind us literally puffing in between his sushi eating.

I didn't really want to get Asian food when in Prague, but it was late at night and it seemed like…read morethis place was the only one still serving food... so there I was, but my expectations were low... but I have to say, Asian Temple actually did exceed my low expectations. Food: I ordered the Bami Goreng, which is an Indonesian noodle dish, similar to pad thai. I have to say, it was actually quite good, as the noodles were cooked well and I have no complaints about the chicken and veggies in the bowl. The portion size was decent, although it was definitely a bit overpriced, at 499 CZK (~22 USD). Environment: It is very clear that this place is catered toward tourists. The decor is sort of a lavish yet tacky / stereotypically Asian style. For example, there is a gold Buddha statue, bamboo, fish tanks, and more along those lines. That being said, in all honesty, it was actually a kind of nice and comfortable environment. There is dim lighting with red accents, creating for an intimate vibe. The restaurant has a large interior. In addition to dining areas, there are also lounge areas for people to just chill / hang out. Service: The staff are friendly and the service speed is quick. This was probably helped by the fact that there were only a handful of other tables occupied when I was there. Overall, I have to first give Asian Temple credit for actually serving food late at night, unlike other places that (even if they appeared open) had their kitchens close early. On top of that, the food and environment were surprisingly good. It's definitely a touristy (and therefore kind of overpriced) place, so I wouldn't recommend specifically planning to come here, but if it's late at night or for some reason you really just want Asian food, then Asian Temple is a decent choice.

We went to the first place near our Airbnb which is the El Gaucho. We didn't know the conversion rate on money but had heard Czech Republic wasn't terribly expensive. Boy were we wrong!

Wow even in America we can get a good streak dinner for almost half. The food was decent but not $225 decent. No bread-nothing extra-nothing warranting the price... just Hello tourist you just got taken. Tourist beware! I told the waiter this is super expensive his response "Our beef comes from America."

We came in fairly late on a Saturday night, about an hour prior to closing, and the restaurant was still pretty packed. We took that as a good sign. Once we were seated and got a chance to peruse their menu, we decided to share an order of their tofu summer rolls. I got an order of their tofu phad gra pao kai dao, while my friend got a noodle dish. I did ask for my dish to be spicy, but I guess the spice levels have been adjusted to suit more local palates as it wasn't exactly spicy. Other than that, the food was pretty good and fresh. Not a bad place to get some decent Thai food if you happen to be in this part of Prague.

I didn't yet know the city,…read moreand having been up for over 24 hours and barely eaten since I left Vancouver (see my review about Lufthansa), I went into the first restaurant that appealed to me, which was Zebra Express. Yup, while in Prague, the first type of cuisine I ate was Asian. You know you're from Vancouver when... I ordered a "Thai" curry, and while it was nothing special, it wasn't terrible, and it filled me up. Since I was pretty tired and hungry, I didn't spend too much time looking over the menu. But the website shows that in addition to Thai food, they offer sushi and dim sum, amongst other things. And not only do they offer dim sum, but they offer non-pork dim sum, which is a plus in my books. They also have free wi-fi (password needed).
