Mediterranean Restaurants in Prague

Mediterranean food in Prague isn’t just about olives and hummus tossed on the plate. It’s a chance to catch a little sunshine on a chilly Czech evening, often in laid-back spots where you won’t feel rushed.

Places like Restaurante Baraka in Vinohrady bring authentic Croatian and Dalmatian cooking to the table, all with that home-cooked feeling. Or maybe you want to sit down at La Casa Argentina where the seafood feels fresh enough to be straight from the Mediterranean coast , surprisingly rare around here. And don’t underestimate the smaller, family-run Greek tavernas tucked away near Anděl or Letná. They serve tzatziki that tastes like your Greek friend made it just yesterday.

Insider tip? Try to plan your Mediterranean meal for spring or early autumn. It’s when these restaurants often have cozy outdoor seating open, and you avoid the summer tourist crush in spots like Malá Strana. Also, ask for wine recommendations , many places focus on Spanish or Italian labels that are off the beaten path but pair perfectly with Mediterranean dishes. You’ll find the flavors of the south make for a great break from heavy Central European food without leaving Prague.
