It was OK restaurant. We were looking for high rated restaurant next to the museum and this was it, but not sure if worth 4.6 stars at that time. Food was avarage. The goose was fine but the potatoes pencakes were old. Beer was good. They forgot to bring us soup. It was fine, nothing special. If you are looking for duck and goose Czech special meal you can come here. I’m giving this place 5 stars because I believe the food is authentic and probably very good to someone from the Czech Republic. It just wasn’t meant for someone like me and that’s okay. I’m from the Caribbean, and I’m used to fresh, well-seasoned food with bold flavors and variety. I live in NYC now, where I eat light salads, grilled fish, and high-quality proteins. So walking into a traditional Czech restaurant was a cultural experience, not just a meal. This was my first time trying traditional Czech cuisine, and it left me with mixed feelings. The restaurant itself is charming — located in a cozy cellar, with friendly staff and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. But when it comes to the food, it was a very rough ride for my palate. We started with a traditional appetizer of sausages, mustard, horseradish, and bread. The sausages were flavorful, juicy, and clearly well-made. The bread, on the other hand, felt incredibly basic — more like an emergency ration than something you’d look forward to eating. I skipped it entirely and just paired the sausages with mustard. The main course was roasted goose, served with preserved cabbage and a variety of Czech dumplings. Again, the goose itself was great — not heavily seasoned, just salted and roasted, but the meat had a natural richness that stood on its own. The sides, however, were tough for me to enjoy. The dumplings were dense and bland, and the preserved cabbage was overwhelmingly sour. The whole plate evoked a kind of “survival food” energy — like something you eat when options are limited, not something made to be enjoyed. Dessert was apple strudel, and it continued the theme. The apples were plentiful, the pastry minimal, and it tasted like it was made with limited ingredients. If I had to sum up the whole meal in one sentence: it felt like a historically accurate look into how people made do with very little, and made it work. I left the restaurant feeling both impressed by the cultural authenticity and wondering why anyone would choose to eat this food today unless they grew up with it. After some post-meal research, I learned that much of Czech cuisine is rooted in times of scarcity and simplicity — and this meal definitely reflects that history. So here’s the deal: if you want an authentic Czech culinary experience, this place delivers. If you’re looking for bold flavors, rich textures, and modern twists, this probably isn’t for you. I’m glad I tried it — once — but I wouldn't return for the food. Positives: Very friendly staff Authentic and historically accurate Czech cuisine Cozy, traditional atmosphere Negatives: Most dishes lacked flavor complexity Sides were difficult to enjoy Overall felt more like a cultural experience than a culinary one the food and beer were amazing, big portions, great value of money. definitely worth it. 20% discount with the Prague pass card. cosy atmosphere, good vibe, cellar pub and traditional restaurant combination.

The best place I've eaten dinner at Prague in terms of price-to-quality ratio. The venue is in a secluded location, right next to the Museum. It was very stylish and cozy inside, with numerous geese looking at you from every corner

It’s super delicious 😋😋😋😋😋 the duck meat is really tender and the skin is crispy. Even the dumplings are with three different textures. The price is very reasonable. Highly recommend everyone visiting Prague to come here. Waiters are also so friendly and nice!!!
