    From the eska breakfast, the mushroom dish was great. Everything else was ordinary including the bread. The seating outside is pretty. The kombucha was good.

    Great spot! Delicious bread that stay fresh for couple days! Food was amazing! Service was fast and friendly! Place is clean and modern. I will definitely be back when Iam in Prague

    Hanger Steak
    Ali A.

    I visited this restaurant with my girlfriend. This was her second time, but mine first. It's far from the old town, but nothing like Bolt or Uber can take you. We were greeted by a cute host, and she pointed us upstairs, where all the dining tables were located. We were greeted by another host, who showed us our table. The process could have been smoother. The service was alright because my server forgot to bring my beer, so I gave it 4 stars. But the food was good. I ordered the 2 serving with 2 wine that pairs with your food. But for wine, the sommelier gets to pick it. I ordered the Re-hydrated beetroot for a starter, it was delicious with a little acidity and powerful vinegar flavor, but I liked it. The Main entree I ordered Hanger Steak. They cooked it rare. The texture was nice and not chewy. It had some blood from the meat. I prefer medium rare. 4/5 I would go back but ask them if I can have the steak at different cooked a little longer and have one host do all, not hand you off.

    One of the most intriguing stops on our food tour, partly because it's located in a more residential neighborhood that is two stops on the metro from the city center. Lovely restaurant on two levels with stairs and as you go up the stairs, you can look down into the kitchen to see what's going on and how clean it is. Here's what we had. Amazing bread baked in the shop with a salted butter SERVED ON A ROCK. How damned cool is that? Potatoes cooked in ashes with a cream and leek sauce called "kefir" that is some sort of creamed yogurt. The potatoes were amazing. Roast chicken breast with cabbage. Beautiful rich flavor, well cooked and delicious. I'd eat this all day. A gin and tonic with their house-distilled gin with their house-made tonic, to which they added carrot, beet, apple and a grape. It was delicious! I'm absolutely a fan!

    I've giving this five stars because my vegetarian dining partner absolutely loved it. I was disappointed in the potatoes in ash since I kept reading how good this was and it wasn't that great, so I would take half a star off for that, but I'm rounding up. The food is very tasty, and presented in a unique way. Just get the tasting menu, and don't try to put in an extra order of potatoes in ash like I did because you've read everywhere that this is the dish to get. It is not. Try focusing on all the different flavors of the other dishes, that were all very good. I didn't find the area sketchy either. It was fine ubering in and out of there. If you're from a big city, this place is just another fine dining spot, but in Prague. If you're from anywhere else, it would probably one of the best meals you've ever had in your life.

    Came here for a dunch around 3:30pm. We had reservations for dinner, but got too hungry and came early. Pros: - beautiful open airy space - seated immediately - very accommodating and friendly staff (we ordered the ice cream 7minutes past the cut off time of 1600hrs and they agreed to make the ice cream for us anyway) - food is amazing (need to try the whipped cream and potatoes) Notes: - goes in most of Europe, water comes with a small charge - pay up front at the side of the kitchen

    Fermented soft drinks

    THE. MOST. AMAZING dining experience in Prague. We were completely blown away! We came here on a recommendation from a friend of mine, and did I mention we were blown away? Potatoes in ash. If you've never had this, well, go ahead and book your ticket to the Czech Republic. It sounds intimidating, but it's just referencing how the potatoes are cooked. This dish is so hearty and comforting, made with potatoes, smoked fish, dried egg yolk, and kefir. Imagine the creamiest potato soup that's satisfying in ways you couldn't even imagine. *sigh* Eska is so cool because the bottom level is more coffee shop + bakery, and the top floor is the restaurant. You want reservations, for sure. It was also cool to see such an industrial vibe amongst the typical Beauty and the Beast Prague architecture. I fell in love with the Breakfast Eska: fermented wheat, mushrooms, eggs, bread, ham, horseradish, and an accompanying "soft drink." The fermented soft drinks were SO interesting, and we tried the apple cinnamon and asparagus. Sounds crazy but both of them were so good. the omelet was also wonderful, but the potatoes in ash were the star (in case you couldn't tell.) I've been waiting to use the following pun forever: you need to "czech" this place out. I hate myself for that but it seems fitting. Thanks for a truly unique and special dining experience!

    Loved Eska in Praha! This is the place to come for breakfast. It is a little off the beaten path, but it's an easy Uber ride away and so worth a visit. Perfect eggs are hard to accomplish, and they nailed it here at Eska. The bread basket breakfast was a terrific share for the table and included a modern take on Czech bread classics. The expresso drinks were expertly made (at the upstairs drinks counter, so fun!) and delicious. Each dish was modern, simple but expertly prepared and locally sourced, the space itself is light and beautiful, and the service is professional and attentive. I believe this a Bib Gourmand recognized spot, which is a nice bonus, and its clearly well deserved. Come here!

    Creamy ashy cheesy potato soup
    Anne R.

    Locally sourced wine pairings and dishes in rustic style, set within a warehouse atmosphere that makes it easy to be causal. On the ground floor, you walk into what looks like an open kitchen and take-out counter, but to the right is a host stand that offers seated dining upstairs. We had a party of around 20ppl and reserved in advance with a set menu of three courses served with three drinks. Delicious complimentary bread and sparkling water was provided on the table as we arrived. Our first course was charred baked potatoes in a sour cream and onion style sauce that could also double as a creamy potato soup, served with a lighter bodied and spicy Pinot Noir from the Brno area. Second course was a baked chicken and vegetable dish that was juicy and buttery with a small bit of breading and extra seasoning, paired with a buttery Oaked white wine. Dessert course was an apple tart covered in a bourbon cream sauce and served with a dark espresso roast. All dishes were excellent- and the chef was great about accommodating people who dietary restrictions like dairy intolerance and vegetarian requirements.

    Excellent and inventive breakfast. Service was professional and the staff speak English.

    Came here with a great food tour. We were seated at chef's tables where we can see how they prepare our dishes. The freshly made bread ( bake fresh everyday ) and butter ( I wish I can buy and ship the butter home ) were excellent and the rest were just ok.

    Fermented wheat with a poached egg
    Paul M.

    We had high hopes for this restaurant for breakfast and they were completely met! We didn't have reservations and it was Sunday morning so we made sure to arrive there right when they opened at 9am. They were nice enough to seat us with just a small friendly warning that we would need to finish by 1015 since people with reservations would have our table. No problem! I got the eska brekafast which has fermented wheat, mushrooms, egg, bread, ham, horseradish, and a soft drink. The soft drink was a cucumber fermented drink that was kind of like kambucha, really good. The fermented wheat was delicious as well. It was a perfect breakfast in terms of great food without totally weighing you down the rest of the day. My wife got the bakers breakfast which had sweet roll, roll, marble cake, sweetened curd cheese, jams, nut butter, kefir. She liked it but didn't like the kefir so I got to have it, score! I love yogurt sour drinks now, 6 year old me would be ashamed. Coffee was pretty good, the only hiccup was we asked for sugar and they forgot and brought it to us much later when we asked again. Oh yeah they also accidentally brought someone else's plate to us and I took some nice photos of it but then they took it away so in my photos you'll notice some food that doesn't match my description. The small service things weren't a big deal, the food made up for it!

    Overall a great culinary experience, but not worth the trip if you're staying in Prague center. I got the recommended potato dish, and only had half of it as while it was tasty it was immediately overly filling. While this dish is meant to be creamy, too much of the focus is on the cream and not enough on the other ingredients. There's so much great food in Prague that I wouldn't make the trip to Karlin/ Eska again. The decor is meager (put nicely) and the atmosphere is of locals having a working lunch. The food was tasty, but I was under impressed after walking 30+ minutes for the experience. The service was superb, perfectly attentive, helpful and knowledgeable.

It was my second visit to Prague so I was taking my time to see more than the "must see things."

It was totally picturesque. But I wasn't hungry. So I regretfully moved on without eating there. Imagine the elation a few days later when someone in our group booked a dinner reservation for us at the same place I was regretting having missed! With a group of a dozen of us, I think someone ordered everything on the menu. We were all thrilled. We had appetizers , cocktails and entrees -- everything we had was great! The restaurant is family-owned and we were treated to the son being a primary server for our group. Now and then dad was part of the picture too and we enjoyed the added dynamic. Pretty sure the son is on point for Americans as his English was on point. They were great hosts!

Great place if you want to try something other than goulash and the other Czech fare offered around town. Pro tip: they charge you for the bread basket if you eat a slice. It was like 10 crowns.

I truly could live happily on toast, boiled potatoes, fruit, and Diet Coke. I'm also both a vegetarian and someone with a fairly limited palate, so I didn't think Field would be a hit for me. WOW was this an amazing experience! First: gorgeous space. Comfy tables, set far enough apart so we didn't feel crowded, and it didn't get loud. Beautiful artwork on the ceiling. Bright. Cheery. We loved it. We are visiting our son who lives a few hours south of Prague. My husband and son are fabulously adventurous eaters and they gifted me with this outing to Field, a Friday lunch reservation at 1:30 pm. Lunch seems the perfect time to come as the restaurant was not totally booked and we had so much attention from staff, including the front desk, wait staff, sommelier, and bartender. But I'm guessing dinner would be a blast, too. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive. Our lead waitress was Michaela, and she was the most polished and professional server I've ever met!! We felt so well cared for. In our 3 person party we had me: a vegetarian, and our son who has severe food allergies, to peanuts, pine nuts, and most nuts. 2 of the 3 don't drink any alcohol. Amazingly, it was not a problem at all. In fact, they were prepared!! There was a vegetarian prix fixe menu, with both a large and a smaller option, plus we could order the 'non-alcoholic' version of the wine pairings. So we did. My son had phoned ahead to inform them about his food allergies, and Michaela and the bartender confirmed them when we were seated. The staff was so welcoming and completely knowledgeable about ingredients. They did a fantastic job keeping my son safe, like bringing out his dessert first so it would come close to the 5 other pastries that included nuts. The bartender made him a special cocktail that was hazelnut-free. The 'pesto' was made with pumpkin seeds instead of pine nuts. The staff told us the ingredients of every single dish and cocktail!! And literally showed us! Our waitress brought over a tray that included things like snails, crawfish, and artichokes, and then she told us where they'd sourced them in Czechia! Except the crawfish, as we learned they are a protected animal in Czechia, so they are brought in from Germany. We loved that part, hearing where all of these beautiful ingredients came from. I'll include a few photos from both my vegetarian and their regular prix fixe adventures. The pea soup was my favorite! My son said the deer main dish was the 'best thing I've ever eaten, in my entire life'. I didn't take photos of the non-alcoholic cocktails, but those were lovely. Especially a super fun foamy pomegranate one!
