Also, there was a pianist playing holiday music among other notable tunes. Being here myself, it was nice to listen to. I ordered the pork chop, breaded and fried, with roasted potatoes. I also got a hot ginger beer. It's not the soda we have in the States - it's actually a beer with ginger, lemon, cinnamon, and clove. Since it's beer based, it's a little out of my comfort zone. I would normally like something like this if it were non-alcoholic and sweeter but it grew on me as I drank it. The pork chop was really good - very basic, comfort meal. There are a lot of choices in Krakow but since I just arrived and was hungry, I stopped in as I knew they had good food.

Great ambiance... and that's the highlight. Our pierogi were ok, though bland (I've had frozen…read morepierogi that were better. The potato pancakes were also comparable to prepackaged. There are (many) better places - even just across the street. At least the service was good. I suppose if you're just coming here for beers, it would be ok.

I didn't want to come across as an ugly American but I finally had to ask to be moved. Our waiter was great. We end up in a booth by the beer taps and it was decently quiet but fun to watch the interaction between the wait staff and the bartenders. Our waiter was great especially after we attempted our mediocre beginner Polish and ordered a couple rounds of Cytrynówka. Food was great. We'll be back this summer!

I would say Poland definitely is and has a world class soup culture, they take soups very seriously there. The mushroom soup I had was like no other I've ever had anywhere absolutely phenomenal!! Almost every restaurant we visited had 3 to 4 soups on the menu. Kuchnia u Doroty specializes in Soups, Schnitzels, Bigos, Roast Pork, Perogies, Pickled Herring and more. Service is excellent and the ambiance holds a wonderful cozy surprise especially when dining downstairs. By all means hit this place up, you won't be disappointed.

The staff are all very friendly and professional and have in depth knowledge of the menu. This was particularly helpful when trying to understand some of the menu that I was unfamiliar with. We ended up ordering one order of their meat pierogis and one order of their cheese and potato pierogis. They gave a portion of 10 pierogis and they were very filling. We also got their żurek and barszcz soups and all were super flavorful and light. Overall this place is a solid spot and I would come back.

There is a limited selection of food, but what there is, is really quite good (and excellent for lunch, if you go in ones or twos - the kitchen is *tiny*, and this isn't the place for a large group!)

In addition to the six courses was an amazing amuse bouche, two intermezzos and a pre-dessert. The pacing of the dinner was good, as was the service. My favorite course was probably the wild boar, excellent taste and not at all gamey (sometimes a problem with boar). The fish, zander, was also great as was the first course of goose, though I had no regrets on any of the courses. Not only was the food good but the presentation was beautiful.
