Definitely my favorite restaurant in Prague. The food quality is exceptional. I had knee of young piglet and bun dumplings, both are amazing. The skin of the knee very crispy, the meat is tender and easy to fall off the bone, really tasty. The service also excellent, the waiter tried to warn me the amount of food I ordered for one person, which is very thoughtful. Highly recommend, if you want to try some traditional Czechia food. The local beer is also great. We came for dinner on Friday, the restaurant was packed. Luckily we don't have to wait since we made a reservation. The waiter was nice. The teas we ordered was nicely presented and tea good. Then we waited quite long for our beef goulash & piglet. Overall everything taste good. Came here as top rated. Luckily bagged a seat despite not booking so ensure you plan ahead & book in advance BUT should you be walking past, do stick your head in &: enquire on availability. Food, beer, wine, service, decor & atmosphere were all superbly fantastic, made extra special by the wonderful Teresa & all the staff at Mincovn. Definitely recommend🇨🇿💯👍 Definitely re-attend if ever back Prague way. Thank you Tereza & everyone for allowing us to have such a magically special time in Prague.

A pleasant atmosphere, good food, but not the best treatement, I DON’T recommend. First, I ordered the creamy steak, and the portion was really small, just one slice of meat. I had a hard time to be full, but if my father had ordered the same thing, I think he would have needed three plates to be full. Apart from that, we were two 23-year-olds in the restaurant, so the average age was a bit older than us. But the biggest difference was the waiter's attitude. The waiter, who chatted and joked with every other table, was quite cold when it was our turn. When most customers called, he went straight to them but when it came to us, he always asked for a minute, they always had a priority.. When we decided to leave and asked for the bill, the same thing happened. After being asked for a minute, he first reviewed the table in front's order, then he went to ask if they had any other requests, then digitized the requests, then the adjacent table's order was taken, and then we were finally able to get our bill. When the bill arrived, we were ready to pay and said we would pay cash, but the waiter disappeared again. When he came back, we paid 1500 crowns to a 1428 crown account, and after all the poor service we received, he said nothing but “something back”, so he did not even make the effort to ask us properly if we wanted to leave a tip. When we said yes, because we weren't happy with the service that we NEVER got, he continued with “Service is not included in the price”. We really wanted to say “yes we realized”. It was extremely uncomfortable to be so hard-pressed to tip for service we hadn't even received. In short, the food was good, but I wouldn't recommend it.

Excellent, but unpretentious restaurant in the heart of Prague. They have creative takes on Czech classics. The guinea fowl was exceptional. The svičkova wasn’t the best I’ve ever had, but it was still very good and the sauce was very flavorful. One of the appetizers with potatoes and truffle was lovely and unique. Prices are min-range, but the service was very helpful and friendly. Salads were also very good and the portions were enormous.
