Recenzje
Amazing Italian food and service. My favorite were the tuna tartar appetizer and pizza. I also got a minestrone soup that was great as well. Good portion sizes for the price and everything was delicious. If you want Italian food near the castle, this place is a great option.
We loved the food so much we dined here twice! Tucked just away from the busy main streets in the heart of the Castle District—right at the base of Castle Hill; perfect portions and great value. Every dish we ordered was spectacular, with the pizzas, tagliatelle bolognese, sea bream, and grilled calamari standing out as highlights. It is exceptional Italian cuisine for anyone seeking a lighter meal option in Prague.
I recently visited this restaurant and tried the pasta dishes — carbonara and Bolognese. Unfortunately, the food was quite average. The carbonara didn’t resemble the authentic Italian recipe at all. The cheese had a strange taste, and it felt like the sauce included egg whites instead of only yolks, which changed the texture completely. The Bolognese was also very poor in minced meat and didn’t remind me of the classic Italian version. However, the restaurant itself is truly beautiful. The staff were extremely kind, helpful, and well‑trained. The atmosphere, the decoration, and the whole space are wonderful. It’s located in a great spot in the Old Town, on a very charming street. Even though I wouldn’t order the same dishes again, I would definitely return for a glass of wine because the environment is lovely.
This is an Italian restaurant I visited on my way down from touring Prague Castle. It had a quiet atmosphere, and there seemed to be more locals than tourists among the patrons; the owner's kindness really stood out. The food was fantastic, and the service was excellent. If I visit Prague again, I would definitely want to visit this place again.
We randomly just popped in the restaurant and it was a great choice altogether. We went for the Carbonara and Bolognese, which let me say they were proper authentic with a really amazing taste. Everything is done with the original ingredients. We also got some homemade wine and Tiramisu. Altogether I can recommend this place for food. Don’t hesitate.
