Ed Red

Ed Red is back (♥️!!!) on Kraków’s Main Square — now inside the beautiful Pałac pod Baranami, one of the city’s most historic buildings. The new space feels both modern and full of character: an open kitchen glowing in blue light, a cozy green bar with vintage lamps, and a stunning chandelier room that keeps the old charm alive. The food is excellent — the Matjes herring was perfectly balanced, the handmade sausages full of flavor, and the seasonal veggies with garlic butter just right. Simple, honest dishes made with skill. If you liked the old Ed Red, you’ll love this one. Same soul, just more refined — and now in one of Kraków’s most iconic spots. Perfect for dinner with friends or a relaxed evening in the very heart of the city.

Ed Red was a really nice experience. We sat outside in the heated tent, which was had a good atmosphere in the square, and our server was friendly and welcoming. I ordered Ed’s classic burger - affordable, tasted great, and was a good size. There were a lot of sauces and toppings, so it got a bit messy and fell apart, but that didn’t take away from it.

Really good steak, we loved all the starters too. Blood sausage & sausage platter starters were a standout. Sides were great too - definitely recommend here for a fab steak house in the main square, but doesn’t feel touristy at all!

That was the best experience I had in Krakow. Amazing food! Everything was tasty, and full of flavor. The dishes were not only delicious but also very interesting — full of unique ideas and great presentation. The atmosphere inside was warm and cozy, with a beautiful design that made me feel relaxed. The staff were very friendly and helpful, always smiling and making sure everything was perfect. I really enjoyed my visit and will definitely come back again. Highly recommended!

If you want to taste amazing Polish food – this is the place! They have the best Black pudding (kaszanka) I’ve ever had in my life! I haven’t tried everything yet, but everything I did try was absolutely delicious. The staff were super friendly, and the atmosphere is perfect — whether you’re here for a romantic dinner, a business meeting, or just a casual spontaneous visit. I’ll be coming back to Kraków just to eat here again!

Amazing steak! Tasty starters and great desserts, a must if you come Poland ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Steak house in the heart of Kazimierz. Went there during Restaurant Week for the first time and really enjoyed it. We were sitting just near the kitchen and could observe our food preparation which was quite fun. Lamb was very soft and tasty. Honey cake could have been softer though. Service was really good and attentive. Overall, very pleasant experience and definitely would come back to check something from the regular menu.

The food was really good, I’m giving four stars though because there was something a little odd about the menu. It gives you the price of the steak per hundred grams, so naturally I tried to order hundred gram portions of two different types of steaks. However, the minimum number of grams they actually serve for what I had, which was the 40 day dry age ribeye, was 220 g. So it ended up being a little over double the price listed on the menu. Why not just list the cost for the 220 g portion, which is the smallest piece you could get? I will say that the steak was very good and very well cooked. I’ve never had dry aged steak like that, very pleasant funk. The demi-glaze was also very nice. And I highly recommend the black pudding appetizer. My husband enjoyed the kimchi burger!!!

I've never been to the previous location, but the new one is truly beautiful and spacious. There is a combination of regular tables and booths. The colors and mix of textures work perfectly together. Although the lighting adds ambience to the whole picture, I still got a cold feeling about this place. After arriving, two hostesses greeted me and gave me three options for a table for one person. Because it was my first time there, I followed their instructions but later I was wondering why they didn't tell me to sit just anywhere I want. The restaurant was rather empty. It was late evening, and I didn't think a crowd of people would come to have a steak for supper. Actually, I should have started from the beginning I was on the hunt for the best beef tartar in town. I did some research and Ed Red was coming out all the time so I gave them a try. So practically I knew what I was going to order, except a drink. The drink menu wasn't interesting. I saw only three kinds of beer. All of them were craft and honestly I don't appreciate it so much, but I ordered beer anyway. It was 'Pan IPAni' from "Trzech Kumpli" brewery, "...the lightness of wheat beers combined with the enticing bitterness of a classic IPA. Expect prominent citrus, mango and pear aromas intertwined with delicate floral notes. Slightly cloudy, light golden. Well-balanced, moderately bitter on the mouth". Sounds great, doesn't it? But I thought later shot of vodka would have been a better match for my beef tartar. Of course there is a long list of wine you can choose from.   The food came to my table faster than I expected. I know it was a dish from the appetizer menu, but it was the only thing I ordered, so they should have given me at least some feeling that my food was well prepared. It came almost at the same time as my beer. The chopped beef tenderloin tartar was good. I enjoyed every bite of it. Unfortunately I couldn't dispel the feeling that it should have been served with bread that was of lighter consistency or taste. A buttery toast would have been much more appreciated. It wouldn't have overwhelmed the taste of the wonderful beef tenderloin. The whole experience wasn't the best, but the food made me think I would like to come back and try something more from the menu. I am not a big fan of beef, except tartar, but they offer more variety of dishes. The atmosphere gave me a chilling feeling, like I mentioned from the beginning. Even the big and warm smile of my waiter didn't heat the environment a bit. I could see from a distance a bunch of butcher looking chefs. They were wearing white and I thought it was really cool but it creeped me out having seen them knowing I actually ate what someone just killed. There was music in the background but it was quiet and all I heard was a refrigerator buzzing constantly with no break. Maybe when Ed Red is full of people everything it feels different, more lively, but this was the point of view I had this one particular evening.

Wow! The food here is amazing! The service and great, and the prices are decent. A must try while in Krakow.
