Holy cow. This is legitimately the best food I've had in Europe on my current trip. I don't say this lightly either. I studied abroad in Paris for over 3 months and have been traveling around Italy and Germany for the remaining month with other countries sprinkled in. On this trip, I've been to 12 countries. I can confidently say this food was incredibly delicious and very unexpected. They have an English menu, the staff is friendly, and the place has a bustling atmosphere. I ordered the Crackling Duck Dumplings, which were phenomenal. They were so good, I would come back tomorrow and get more. I will definitely be coming to this restaurant again before I leave Prague. The duck inside is succulent and is bursting with flavor. For the main, I ordered the Pork Goulash. This was also very good. I wouldn't mind getting it again. The pork was extremely tender, falling apart at the slightest provocation of the fork, no knife necessary. The pork was excellent, the sauce was full of flavor and added a lot to the dish. I'm not even sure what the bread looking things are but with the sauce on them, they were divine. I think the duck dumplings were the star of the show though. I would rate this dish a 4.5/5, and the dumplings 5/5. Both were exceptional. Would definitely come back and offer them again. I would heartily recommend this restaurant to anyone in Prague. It's so good I'll be telling my friends about it. I already texted several to tell them how good the food was. I made this my first stop in Prague, hopefully the rest of the food lives up to the same quality and flavor.
Probably the best food we had in Prague! The veal dumplings were very dill-heavy which my husband absolutely loved! The bread dumplings were delicious and the meat was beyond tender. Service was efficient but not particularly warm. We were able to get an english menu and the waiter had excellent recommendations. The beer keeps flowing, but definitely recommend trying some of their lemonade too (which is more like a sparkling juice).
My second Czech Restaurant in Prague, and I was not disappointed. The ambience of the place was buzzing with a young clientele and the staff being very friendly and very attentive kept the beer coming. Food was nicely presented and more importantly tasteful as well ! I would definitely go back.
This place is noisy. Staff is quick. Menu in English. The food is excellent!! The special of farmers chicken had crispy seasoned skin and moist chicken. The bacon chips were delicious. The small plates are not so small. Skip the beef in pastry...the escargot and beef cheeks were delicious. The cider was good. Did I mention this place is crazy noisy loud??!! Be careful, they are quick to remove unattended food and drink regardless if you are finished. The dessert of blueberry dumplings come in servings of two or four. Very rich and delicious. Two was enough to share with four people. Warm with a creme anglaise....excellent venue!
When two local people from Prague recommend a place, that means you must come here right? Came around 5 and was seated immediately. Very clean and modern decor. Since this was our first real dinner in Prague, we decided to go "all out". We each had 2 beers (delicious, frothy, and cold). For starters we had the trout, beef cheeks, as well as marinated pork. The beef cheeks were seasoned so well and tender! The trout was soft buttery heaven. For our main entree we decided to split some pork dish. It wasn't as great as our appetizers but we still finished it all. Dessert was awesome. We got strawberries that came with this fresh whipped cream like dipping sauce. As well as a rhubarb cake. Everything was delicious. The service was quick and attentive. Best of all? For all this food and drinks the tab was $40. I kid you not.
First dinner in Prague with couchsurfers. I've never had raw meat and just started eating meat and wow was I addicted to the beef tartar. I couldn't stop! It was so flavorful. Is this what I was missing out on for all these years? I loved that the bread was so thin and crunchy and the beef was so perfectly seasoned. I tried beef tartar elsewhere after this and no place compares. I was craving it so much after trying it from here. Everything else I had here was okay - fish, meat sandwich, bacon chips, and creme puff with meat sauce. As for interior, it's quite loud and there is a line. You'll be surrounded by Czech locals but they do have an English menu! You can split the bill on multiple cards and the restroom is clean.
Okay, okay so if I could have one last meal on Earth at one last restaurant, this is the place I would choose. I LOVE THIS PLACE so much. So much. I wanted to move to Prague just so I could eat here every other day. My cousin and I were in Praha for about 3 days and after we went here, we were like fuck it this is the best place ever and ate here 3 times in 2 days. Yeah, it's that amazing. If you stop in Praha and you aren't eating here you have should have some serious regrets...and I ask you to question all your past decisions up to this point. First things first, they have happy hour during lunch time. Lunch time. Where if you dine between 11am and 2pm you get bottomless refills of Cherry soda or free refills of beer (yeah, that's right!)...and oh my goodness, their cherry soda is the most amazing thing I ever drank. It is nothing like any other soda you've had (trust me, I've went to World Market after coming back to the states and bought all the cherry sodas they had just so I could experience it again). No, their cherry soda is just magical, it taste like they juiced some cherries and carbonated it. It's divine and I miss it every day. They also have real juices here in which they add carbonation to and it's just the best thing in the world. Try all of their juices if you come here, you won't regret it. Their beer list is huge and I'm sure you can find exactly what you're looking for in terms of getting properly hydrated. In terms of food, everything is so delicious. Their beef and dumplings are simply the best, their fish was cooked perfectly, every single dish was just out of this world. I apologize as I am writing this review 7 months after I ate here, so I don't remember the specifics of each meal. Plus, like everything in Prague it's so so affordable. All of our meals came out to less than $30-40 USD and we splurged and ate a shit ton of food. I don't regret any of it. I miss this place so much and think about it on a weekly basis. Oh and the employees are so nice, they work all day long. We came for lunch at 12pm and came for dinner at 11pm and it was the same people working, they are just the sweetest. On our last dinner there they brought us complimentary shots of something strong, because we told them we were so sad we couldn't eat there anymore. Not all of them speak English but they have a great English menu that you can use to point at, which I became a pro at doing. ;) All in all, I want to go back to Prague just so I can eat here.
This review is more than overdue. We are regulars there and have rarely ever had any less-than-superb experiences! The Parlament is great for lunch and even better in the evenings. They have specialised on the Czech cuisine, with and without twists. You won't find too many options as a vegetarian but that's not really their fault...it's a czech thing. As if the excellent food wasn't enough: The staff is super nice and friendly even when it's rush hour there during lunch time between 12AM and 1PM. Nuff said. One of THE great restaurants in terms of low-key (lunch) and almost-fancy-but-still-relaxed (dinner) options in Prague. We were bringing dozens of Germans there for the evening before our wedding and they all loved it so much I am not even sure if they remember anything else from that weekend...
I know many people adore this place, but to be honest I never really understood why. The food is average Czech food but there are better places to try Czech cuisine. In case you are vegetarian or gluten-intolerant, don't bother. For vegetarians there are only a few items on the menu and in the main dishes there are no gluten free options at the moment. The soup and goat cheese salad I've tried both contained too much vinegar, and were not a pleasant experience. The restaurant can easily fit several big groups and the service is still very fast which is impressive. But due to the crowds the restaurant tends to get very noisy as well and the decor is very dull. The best part of their selection are the few homemade lemonades offered.
I try to be objective here since we were forgotten by the waitress and therefore got our food almost 1.5h after we ordered. 2 out of 3 dishes we ordered were quite good (steak tartare and veal neck). The third dish (don't remember exactly the name of that steak) was terrible in every way. It felt like eating a shoe sole and the sides were drowned/soaked in grease. I would not say it was the worst as some people would quote dissatisfied but that unflavored full piece of meat killed it... Staff was ok except for the waitress I mentioned above who did not even admit here fault when I pointed out that the neighbor table who came way after us got the same dish we ordered before is... Just say sorry, we all make mistakes but it feels better for the customer with a simple sorry or an extra glass of wine we then had to order ourselves since we waited so long and finished the first round already... Conclusion is that for that price range you can ask for more...

Although the restaurant was very busy, there was a single-top available on the second floor with a terrific view of the main floor. I was about to order a glass of wine when I saw the Pilsner Urquell in the three styles. Although the menu did not have the official name, I opted for The Cut (aka Šnyt), which is more foam than beer. For dinner, I went with the Veal & Cheese Rissole. The breading provided plenty of flavor to the veal & pork combo. The mashed potato had a very creamy texture. Unfortunately, the cucumber salad was the least favorite of the three. The shredded cucumber was akin to sauerkraut being drowned in water. I regretfully passed on the dessert. From my vantage point, I could not see anyone ordering dessert. Even more regrettable, before I left, I discovered the restroom was not well cleaned. read more
Prague was a stop on my cross-European bike adventure this summer and I simply loved my stay here. In fact, the visit to this restaurant contributed immensely to my favorite review of this city: the food was amazing, the atmosphere great and the service was excellent. Having had just arrived in Prague earlier that day and having cycled 100+ kilometers, I was quite famished when I arrived. I hadn't made a reservation but being a singleton at an early evening hour, the staff found me a table quickly. I started by ordering an alcohol-free beer and then I perused the menu. Marek, the waiter, soon came to my aide and helped me pick out a hearty portion: dumplings, of course! For dessert, I also had another set of dumplings and I loved both dishes. read more
I had the privilege of being treated to lunch here. I really enjoyed the vibrant energy of the place and I was excited to try Czech food. I had a pea soup which was quite delicious. My main dish consisted of mushroom dumplings paired with shredded beef. I could have had the dumplings without any meat and I would have been just fine. I would definitely go again to try other items on the menu. read more

Outstanding spot for delicious local cuisine. The service was excellent and the restaurant is beautifully decorated. The prices are excellent as well. We had the tartare as well as some stuffed dumplings and braised beef (I think). Have a look at the ceiling design as well. Very cool! read more

Food was great!!! First day in Prague, long train ride from Munich, we were starving. I found this on to local map we had, and I'm glad I did. I had the beef roll which was super good almost like a roast thing. Service was AMAZING!!! They were so helpful I would definitely come here again and maybe try veal rump! read more

Awesome place in Vinohrady right by the metro stop with a fun and modern atmosphere. Great selection of drinks, anything from beer and wine to lemonades and soft drinks. Food is outstanding. Has a traditional Czech menu with a little modern twist. Will be going here a lot. read more

BEST meal we've had in Prague. Wine list is delicious too. We had the steak tartar, the south bohemian trout and the XXL bone-in pork cutlet. All wonderful. The gratin potatoes that come with the pork were to die for. The watercress sauce on the trout was amazing as well. I'd give this place six stars if I could!!! read more

As an American, we would call this place "elevated" pub food or traditional food. It was fantastic. We came in around 730, and it was very busy but had no trouble getting a table. Wait staff was friendly, and provided us with an English menu. We started with the beef cheek in a red wine sauce and I think it was about 160 crowns? In any case, it was delicious. For mains I got the deep fried boar which was served with pickled beets and over a potato salad. First off, it was a TON of food. Second off it was all delicious. Think schnitzel. It was about 250 crowns. My brother got the XXL pork cutlet. Again, huge. Again only about 250 crowns. Great meal. Great prices! I get spoiled when traveling to other countries because the meal would have cost 25-35% more back home. read more

I came here for the lamb with beets and lentils. The beets and lentils with the sauce they were in was very good actually, but the lamb was a bit dry. Also, the girl who was my server acted like I was a bother to be there all together. I don't think this is the case for the entire wait staff though. Another girl came up to my table once or twice and was really polite. read more

If you are looking for fresh beer and tasty Czech food in a convenient location, look no further, Parlament is the place for you! The restaurant is huge with both smoking and non smoking sections. The beer is fresh, cold and promptly served. The menu has all of the Czech classics and they are very well prepared. I had the rabbit which was wonderful. My dining companion had the krkovice, which was also tasty. Bonus points for the huge kids play place, which has free babysitting on weekends. Keeps all the kids coralled in one area! read more
An excellent restaurant all the way around. Service, food and atmosphere were just right. We had the best lunch of our stay in Praha. We wanted to get away from Old Town and see other neighborhoods. Great spot and neighborhood. Our lunch was so good, my husband had the veal shoulder, red cabbage and pancakes, oh my, soooo good. The meat sauce was really tasty. I had a salad with bacon and potatoes and fresh cherry tomatoes, nice salad, kind of BLT tasting. All that said, the beer, again in Praha, is amazing. Love the beers here, today we had Staropramen beer, cold and refreshing. I liked that it didn't feel touristy, seemed like a local spot for good, modern, traditional dishes. read more

Zero vegetarian options (normal for Prague). Lights on real bright (normal for Prague). Small beer selection (normal for Prague). Really disgusting food options like blood soup, made of real animal blood (normal for Prague). Poorly designed tiny bathroom (normal for Prague). If you love traditional Czech stuff and hate animals, you'll love this place. If you've been to decent places or ever left the country, avoid. read more
Went here for lunch and I must say, clean, nice interior, well organized restaurant and I loved the overlooking factor of the upstairs booths. Staff was alright, nothing fancy, we sat whereever we wanted which was nice. Drinks came quickly, but sadly so did the food. It was correct but honestly was not that good. I had the roasted chicken (on the bone) with Mashed potatoes and gravy. I understand we came at lunch but many people are raving about this place and frankly I did not find it that special. I can think of a bunch of better places to go for a good meal then here. read more
