This is a very popular restaurant. Lots of seating for people. The service is good but very busy. They are popular for their schnitzel. The portion is big. It does come al carte so the sides are added extra. Great for sharing or take home for leftovers. read more

This restaurant is super cute. As you walk up to the entrance, it calls your attention. We sat in outdoor "covered" patio which has heaters. Perfect even during winter. Menus are translated to English as well. Our waitress was very nice and helped us make some choices. We got served some complimentary rye bread with some ham and cheese spreads. (so so good) We went with the pork schnitzel and.... The portion sizes here are HUGE!!! So worth it! It was absolutely delicious. Not greasy and perfectly breaded and fried. We also tried the pierogis which came with grilled onions on the side and they were great. This is where I fell in love with Cytrynowka (homemade lemon vodka) and spent the rest of my time in Poland looking for more. It was so good. Highly recommend trying it! Our bill also came with complimentary shots of cherry vodka (yes please!) So in total we had 2 beers, 2 shots of lemon vodka, pierogis, and pork schnitzel and the bill came out to $37.91 (US). So with that said, it is extremely reasonably priced! Definitely check it out when you're visiting Warsaw. read more

This is a good place for some Czech food right on a busy square in downtown Warsaw- great for people watching! There's always a big line, so we wanted to see what all the buzz is about! There are many options on the menu, and everything is reasonably priced. We've had the schnitzel and the pork knuckle along with beers and an apple cider mule. The bread and spreads that they serve to start are simply delicious! It's a bit kitschy with the outfits and music, but the ambience is nice and we'll continue to come back! read more

Don't miss visiting this place, this is a small Check Republic in Poland. The food is great, as well as the beer. Portions are huge, enormously huge, so we asked for a box. Also, you get a small shot of liquor free of charge. The place is big, but you get your dish pretty quick. However, it would take a lot of time to get the waiter's attention. read more

I really wanted to have traditional Polish food while visiting and this place did not disappoint! Although my table and I only spoke English we were taken care of really well. The pierogis were the best I've ever day and I highly recommend the Sur Schnitzel. The huge schnitzel is TOO large, and the sur was great quality. Bread was served prior to the meal and we were given sherry shots as gift after the meal. It was very sweet of the staff. I will visit again. read more

This was the first place we stopped in our layover in Warsaw en route to Budapest. We wanted to get some food from the region and this place did not disappoint. Our Airbnb host recommended it for it's good prices a d delicious food. Service: The service here was nice, it can be a bit difficult considering how different waiters are in Warsaw compared to the US. It out staff was understanding of our slight confusion trying to order. Ambiance: The place looks like a medium sized local diner. We sat in the patio portion that is still technically inside. When we arrived it was packed and definitely seemed like a lively place to get some good food at. Food: The food was spectacular. I ordered this sour onionand sausage soup(can't recall the name) which was incredibly delicious and snichtzel. The snichtzel was huge so I ended up splitting it with a friend. Also our waiter treated us to complimentary cherry flavored vodka shots which was a nice treat after dinner. Price: The price here was relatively cheap considering the USD-PLN conversion rate. Three people ate appetizers(each) and entrees for only about $32. Highly recommend you check this place out if travelling through the area. read more

Huge portions and comfort food - pork knuckle, schnitzel, ribs all of course with potatoes and cabbage and beer. The place is big and there was a wait to get in. The server was very nice too and spoke english. The place was packed and she got around to everyone pretty well and was more friendly that most servers in Warsaw. We had the ribs with honey nut sauce (YUM!) and baked duck with apples. The duck was half a duck plus 3 sides. It was huge and one meal was enough to split!! The portions were worth the money but the food was not so special that I would plan my next trip around coming back. The place is crammed with tables (seriously there is a meter wide table between the wall and the stair case in a dark corner) where we were seated first. I dont normally refuse tables but it was really crammed and I was happy to wait for another table. The host had one for us a few minutes later - that was alone next to the toilets. Since it is a pub that serves lots of beer we could smell the urinals. So we just asked a server if we could have a free table that got up from there. From there smooth sailing. It is pretty loud and a bit rambunctious (have I mentioned the beer?) but an ok time. read more

Huge ass schnitzel (24 zloty) with a generous helping of fries. Schnitzel is a little on the oily side but the taste is worth it. 2 soups + 1 Schnitzel was just right for the two of us. I'm a small eater though Tasty salty meat spread for their whole grain and white bread appetizer. This complimentary dish is my favourite! Lovely looking 14% dessert shots to round off your meal. Served in teeny wine glasses. Freaking sweet. Complimentary tho so I'm not complaining read more

When you have lazed most of your Sunday in the warmth of your home and you step out into the cold for a dinner alone, you would hope that it's worth the effort. U Szwejka, a Polish/Czech restaurant right in the hub of the Politeknika square - totally nailed it. Walking past the eatery you can't help notice how lively this place was. Chatting students - loads of them, music from the medieval ages with a bagpiper note - I could let mind forget a few things! After I occupied a silent corner table by the staircase, I ordered a Grilled chicken breast gratinated with cheese with roasted potatoes and Bavarian sauerkraut. I didn't know that I was so hungry given that I totally devoured the complementary bread and with the cheese and sausage portions. After the first bite they were too good to be left aside. Waiting for the food I couldn't help notice the uniform of the main stewards who were almost dressed like doctors - with a white coat. While the menu said hot dishes will take 20mins, mine came in 5. The chicken was succinct, and brilliantly grilled. The roasted potatoes and cheese were perfect. The cabbage base was slightly sour for my palate but it was okay. I almost licked the plate clean within a few minutes. The big decision point was a drink or a dessert, and went with the dessert. My choice was Apple cake with vanilla ice. I think the dessert took more time than the main course but it was completely worth the wait. Unlike some over sweet desserts it left you just wanting for a little more. The price for the food was fairly decent as well. read more

It was ok. Schnitzel was really dry and lacking in flavor. And DO NOT ask for separate checks.

We have been in Warsaw for 6 months and have driven and walked past this place numerous times, we finally decided to stop in and see why its so busy all the time. I suspect it is busy because of the giant beers that they serve here because the food is quite average. I ordered the pork ribs, they had decent flavor and the meat came of the bones easy enough but they were pretty dry. My wife ordered the Golonka, pork knuckle, it was huge and could have fed us both, the meat was tasty and cooked well and the leftovers made a great omelette the next morning. Although we didn't have any big complaints we have enjoyed much better Golonka and ribs in Warsaw so based on this I give 3 stars. read more

Wow, I ordered Zarek Soup to start out and it was delicious. The place was very busy. Plan some time here. It is definitely worth it. Great tasting beer, friendly staff, what more can you ask for. Thank you. read more

We had lunch here, it was bloody good! the menu is predominately meat based.. heaven if you are in a different country and your wife is nowhere close and you can have what you want. I had the pork ribs, the meal looked huge but once I stripped the meat from the bones there wasn't a huge amount to eat, my colleague on the other hand ordered the "Huge schnitzel"... it was aptly named; the biggest single bit of meat I have ever seen served to one person, boy was I jealous. The restaurant has a separate smoking area, a very civilised feature if you ask me. I loved the place, would be back in a shot! read more

Last year, I was in Poland celebrating my birthday. One of my best friends from Poland took me here with another close friend because she assured me i was a great place to celebrate my birthday dinner. We sat on their patio and received very friendly service. I ordered the roasted duck with apples, hot beets and bread dumplings. Wow, what portion sizes!! I think all three of us could have eaten from this one plate. The food was good, but it was definitely quantity rather than quality. For dessert, they surprised me with a piece of szarlotka, a version of an apple pie with vanilla ice cream that was really a sweet way to end the evening. Overall, a nice fun place to have dinner. read more

Great bang for your buck. The schnitzel was extremely thin, to the point of almost being too thin but boy was it large and delicious, no sauce required though the lemon just added that extra umphf. The roesti smothered in a couple different sauces/goulash was also delicious though the actual potato pancake could have been salted and spiced just a kick more. Overall friendly quick cheap huge and solid meal. read more

This restaurant is definitely one of the best in Warszaw. It´s well placed right in a centrum and it´s based on Czech and Polish cousine. One friendly warning. Order appetizer only in a case that you are supermegahyperglalactical hungry. Portions are sooo huge. Main dish would be enough for the whole family of four. I didn´t finish my meal for the first time in my life. I made a rookie´s mistake and ordered soup which was kind a like a little lake. There was no chance to finish the main dish :-) Btw: the main dish was skewered meat and each of the pieces of meat was like a little schnitzel and by little I don´t mean some mini-schnitzels but kind a normal little bit smaller sized schnitzel. Quality of food is very good. Also beer (Pilsner urquell) tastes really good so I guess they keep the pipes clean. Service is also pretty good so no complaints about it. Prices are very acceptable, especially according to the meal´s portions. I definitely recommend this place to visit. And remember, don´t do a rookie´s mistakes and just order the kid´s portion :-) read more

So, the first time I went here, the food was amazing. The second time wasn't so great. So I'm not sure if the food is hit or miss. But either way, the atmosphere is amazing and fun. The dinner and drinks are cheap. You might want to book a table in advance, because it fills up and people wait in line. read more

I'm a woman traveling alone on business staying at a nearby hotel. I'd like to make clear I have no problems with alcohol and people drinking. My family owns a bar in the states. That being said, I went to this restaurant because it was close to my hotel and the reviews were good on yelp. It was a busy night and the line extended outside to get it. While waiting outside I witnessed a patron literally being carried out by his friends. (I hope friends, otherwise he's in trouble). Carried to the point his feet were dragging on the ground, head more on his chest than up. I also saw the management observing this thru the windows. But, not my business or problem. Inside I had a table upstairs for one. Again, Saturday night, place was hopping. Patrons are singing loudly, others observing. Then a gentleman (drunk, no other way to put it) leaves his table and goes to another table to visit. (He didn't appear to know the two patrons at the table). In short order a woman from a third table starts yelling across a few tables at him. She doesn't know him either. All the other tables are now pretty much quiet, watching the show. Management shows up, his friends are trying to drag him out. He's resisting, (large guy, shirt is being pulled up, not a pretty sight by your dinner table). We know have 6 people involved and its right on the edge of a full fledged brawl. All in between other people trying to dine. I decided then and there two things. #1. I was done and wanted out. #2. This establishment apparently does not care how drunk a patron gets. I was really uncomfortable at my table at that point. I truly thought there was a good chance this was going to turn into a full fledged brawl. They managed to calm him down and get him out. I got my check and left. Maybe I would come back if I was with someone as the food was excellent. But traveling alone - no way. I'd rather go to KFC down the street. Less drama. Again, the food was great. Too bad they let customers drink till they are falling down drunk and obnoxious jerks wanting to fight. read more

One of my favorite restaurants in Warsaw!

Fantastic food, interesting display of dishes. I go there every year. Not very expensive either.

Used to be absolutely super, but nowadays (2015) it is more hit-and-miss. Portions are huge and prices are reasonable, so still a nice place to go. read more
