It's about a 25-minute walk from the main city center (or around 10 minutes by taxi), and it is absolutely worth going out of your way for. The food was incredible. We tried the homemade pork and beef dumplings as well as the cheese and apricot vareniky, and everything was outstanding. The dough was light and perfectly cooked, and the fillings were rich, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Honestly, these were better than any dumplings I had anywhere else in Europe. It's not really a traditional sit-down restaurant--there's just a small bar-style seating area--but don't let that stop you. This place is all about the food, and it delivers. Service was excellent, fast, and friendly, and the prices were very reasonable for the quality. If you're anywhere in Prague and craving authentic dumplings, this spot is a must-try.

Cool vibe w/ nice waiters. Some rather shady characters nearby outside however. Ladies hold onto your purses and guys know where your wallets are. Everybody in Prague will tell you this. This is in a rather hip nice area. There's folks from around the globe with money here. So you are a target. I had my family with me and outside Special I was offered sex from a rather attractive local working girl and cocaine from unattractive Nigerian drug dealer. Not to slight this place in the slightest. Not their fault. It's in a hip area and there are customers galore looking for some edgy fun. Speciál is well worth your time. As this is newer place you might have issues w/ its name. People we asked and cabbies didn't quite get that we weren't looking for a "special" place but a place NAMED "Special." "Yeah yeah they are all special restaurants around here." I was told.

The food is amazing and the Chef, Lukáš Hlaváček, stopped by to chat with us! Everything was just superb. Our first night in Prague was divine thanks the food, service and that view!!!

The tables were a bit too close together, but otherwise the seating was quite comfortable so the honey and I ordered a couple of the Czech Classics and a Consommé. Everything was delicious - there wasn't a single neutral to the dishes and the service was incredibly prompt, if not a bit on the standoffish side. I'd highly recommend stopping in if you're in Prague for the day.

We loved Katr! This…read morewas our first time here. We're in Prague for 5 nights and staying a block away. We made a 7pm reservation for a Saturday night. They were moderately busy when we arrived. The two of us got seating in a nice 4-top in the corner. Nice and comfy and semi-private. There were menu's on the table and we'd studied a but online before heading out, so making our choices for the evening was quick. A server came around pretty quickly and we ordered beers. My wife had a Urquell Pilsner and I had an Urquell Kozel. Our beers came fast and we placed our dinner order. We shared: - Bread basket (included with meals) - Katr steamed pork sausage with variety of mustards and shredded horseradish - Beef Tenderloin slices - Shrimps - Blanched Vegetables - 3 Sauces (BBQ, Tarter and Sriracha Mayonnaise) Table service was set and a the bread basket was placed. The server put some olive oil on each of our plates. We think this was for the bread. There were 2 varieties of bread and the one we favored seemed to taste like pumpernickel and had some seeds in it. Our Steamed Pork Sauce and Mustards came out and we started munching on that. It was served hot and as a whole link. As we sliced it, we noticed some big chunks of gristle. We carved those out as we made more slices. We tried both mustards and they were tasty, as was the sausage. What I thought was shredded cheese was shredded horseradish. Oops! But I loved it. My wife had ordered this as an appetizer and I had not seen it on the menu. So, surprise. The server also installed our hibachi grill insert and lit the burner. About 15 minutes after ordering, the food was brought out. We were given instructions on how to cook the food and we got started. We ate our meal as we cooked it, adding more to the grill as we took food off the grill. It was a lot of food and we ended up brining half the steak and shrimp home. We really enjoyed our meal and were happy we went with food that we had to grill - just for the experience of it. We'd recommend Katr to anyone who wants to cook their own food at their table or prefers to order kitchen prepared meals from the menu.

My wife and I both had the sliders, you can pick and choose which ones you want. We were both satisfied, and since she was pregnant, I was sure to sample the recommend beer! I believe you are better off making a reservation, we walked in without one. And given the weather and time, we were seated. behind the bar area, there is a sit down restaurant. Not just burgers and beer, they have a full bar, and they have fish tanks, so you can choose what you want to eat. FYI: The mens room, has saxophones instead of urinals to pee in.... Took me a minute to figure that out. I would definitely go back, this place is surrounded by places where tourist flock to, but, it's a not so hidden gem. Strongly recommended .

Relative to what this wonderful meal would have cost us back home, the pricing was ok as well. My wife started with the butterfly gin & tonic, which came with a science lesson, intricate glassware and a coach. Foodwise, the chef prepared an aperitif with kale and chorizo and we tasted paprika too. Lovely and served cute in an espresso mini-mug. My vegetable salad appetizer featured a delicious and rich triple crème cheese which was amazing. My vegetarian entree was also cheese-forward, featuring grilled burrata over couscous with a tomato cream sauce poured at the table. Perfect and refreshing. My wife had the tasting menu which included a yellowfin tuna ceviche, cod filet sad lamb mains and ended with a delicate tower of chocolate, fruit and nuts. It is tough to describe exactly the cuisine at Portfolio because it has elements from lots of places - that may be where the Portfolio name comes from. Great meal!
