Pod Baranem

We had such a wonderful dinner here this evening. I strongly recommend a visit to this place. We were warmly greeted by someone at the door and shown to our table (I suggest making a booking). The food was so delicious. We decided on a meaty evening and had the cabbage meat starter, and sirloin and pork chop for mains. Ordered a side of fried potatoes. I recommend 1 side per person. All the food was carefully made and plated. The portions were well sized and we felt the prices were very reasonable. Our waiter was such a wonderful addition to our evening. He helped us with recommendations and explained the dishes well. He was so friendly and a pleasure to meet him. We would love to visit again in the future :)

The food was really delicious and authentic. The service was also very good. Highly recommend this place if you would like to taste good Polish food. The beetroot soup and the dumplings were great starters. We also ordered a few extra plates of potatoes, bread, and asparagus along with our main dishes.

This is was one of the best restaurants we ate at in Krakow. The server was so nice and sweet. He made us feel like home and was even interested in my Polish heritage. We didn’t have one bad dish.

This restaurant is fantastic. They take special care to ensure gluten free meals. Everything we ate here was amazing and we went back multiple times. This will be a restaurant I will forever think back on because it was so delicious and it was great to get traditional dishes gluten free while visiting Poland. Highly recommend!!

Ate 2 of the best meals of our trip here in Krakow. Amazing selection of gluten free food - majority of the menu is gluten free. Staff were very attentive and assured us that my partners food was also gluten free so we could share if we wanted to.

So glad to have found this restaurant on a recent trip to Krakow and returned a couple of times during my stay. Beautifully cooked local dishes that were difficult to beat in terms of both quality and value for money. The staff even recognised us on the second visit and gave us a free sample of a local cherry liqueur.

Food was absolutely delicious and the staff were lovely and very helpful. My girlfriend has coeliac disease, and the staff were very helpful in telling us what she could have. Everything we had was gluten free, including my beer and the dumplings! I had the lamb for my main course, which was delicious, and she had the breaded pork (I forgot to take a photo). We also shared bigos and dumplings for a starter, which we both loved! Would highly recommend for anyone visiting Krakow, coeliac or not!! On the pricier side for Krakow, but still very reasonable given the quality of the food.

Finally a very good classy polish restaurant that is reasonably elevated but is, at the same time, quite old fashioned. The rooms are large and, when almost empty, feel quite cold. This is a matter of coming at the right time if you prefer dining amongst people and doesn’t reflect on food. The mushroom soup was on point, zurek Krakow style unusually light and full of flavor still, stomach soup was again refined without losing the spirit of the dish. Both duck and venison were extremely tender and very well prepared. Sweetbreads were soft but with the proper texture so not turned into mush. There’s refreshing respect for the Polish cuisine here and no desire to revolutionize it beyond recognition. I like this place.

I have been living in Krakow for a month and have tried many restaurants in my area. I noticed this restaurant when walking to Wawel for the Corpus Christi procession. I also noticed that Yelp did not have a recent review. Today I decided to go there for lunch. I arrived when they opened at 12.00, and I was the only one in the restaurant until 13.00 when some Polish families came in. I decided to order the Pieczeń cielęca w borowikach (Roast veal with porcini mushrooms). Originally I wanted the boiled new potatoes. but they didn't have them today, so I had fries. The menu reminds all customers that the meals are prepared fresh and therefore take 30 minutes. My meal arrived slightly earlier than that. See the photo for the presentation. The dish was fantastic. The veal and mushrooms were perfectly prepared. The sauce was superb, a creamy dill sauce that ideally matched the dish. The fries were perfectly cooked. In the end, there was nothing left on my plate. The perfect amount of food for me. I saved room for dessert. It is difficult for me to pass up Creme Brulee any time I see it on a menu anywhere, and I wanted to try my favorite dessert in Poland. It was also perfect, nicely paired with Earl Gray tea. With all that in total plus tip, the cost for one person was 100 zloty. A very reasonable price for the totally delicious meal that I greatly enjoyed. I will be in Krakow a while longer, and I will definitely be back here for another lunch. I saw at least 4 other main dishes on the menu that I would like to try. But the veal will be hard to beat. The menu is very large, with a huge variety of dishes to choose from, including vegetarian options and traditional Polish dishes. But the focus of this restaurant is meat cooked to perfection, and I mean all meats: deer, duck, boar, lamb, beef, fish, chicken, and more. I heartily agree that they achieved this perfection. The restaurant is VERY large, able to accommodate very large groups in multiple rooms. The decor is very nice, many paintings and photographs on the walls, a sophisticated home feeling. I dressed casually, as did the other patrons that arrived after me, but I suspect that dinner is a more formal affair requiring reservations. I didn't see reserved parking for the restaurant, but there is "sidewalk" parking along the road, and the nearby side streets also can accommodate more vehicles. If you have just seen Wawel in the morning and would like a fabulous lunch, I highly recommend this restaurant. If you are about to see Wawel in the afternoon, you can easily eat here for lunch and then see the castle. Or make the special trip to this restaurant, it is highly worthwhile.

We enjoyed this restaurant. The ambiance was classy and the food was delicious. The proximity to the Stradom House hotel made it a clear choice on a cold evening in mid-November. I had a mushroom bread bowl soup and my partner had the bigos - both were exactly what we were looking for to beat the cold. Our server was attentive and not intrusive. Please give this restaurant a try - but you should make a reservation just in case as it was busy with locals.

Anyone gluten-free this restaurant is amazing! They have an extensive gluten-free menu, including cabbage rolls and pierogi. All but one of their desserts is gluten-free. They have strict understanding of cross contamination. We felt very safe eating here. I have two kids with celiac that were able to enjoy a traditional Polish meal, and did not get glutened. Service was nice. Location is a short walk from Wawel Castle.

If you love cream of mushroom soup, go here! Serving traditional Polish food in an old school chic space, my wife and I dine here simply for the soup. It comes in a bread bowl that works well with the thick soup. We also ordered the warm beet salad and a glass of black current juice. Everything tasted great and service is very professional.

Restaurant was only 25% full and wouldn't take us as we had no reservation. Felt a bit ridiculous.

Best restaurant in Krakow. Your choice of traditional cuisine and modern lighter dishes in a warm, comfortable environment. The staff is professional and caring, the owners share homemade cherry brandy. If you are appreciative they may even bring out the older vintages.

I just love the homey feel of Pod Baranem, a traditional Polish restaurant right outside Wawel castle and Krakow's old city. The candles on the tables, the pictures on the walls, and the neatly dressed waiters make for a fancy yet unpretentious setting. On top of that, they cook their dishes to order and use organic ingredients, so even though the service was super slow, the quality of food was definitely great. To start, I tried the bigos, a Polish hunter's stew made of chopped meat and sauerkraut. The chunks of meat had a very dry texture, and while the spices used were nice, the flavor of the sauerkraut just didn't meld into the dish. After lots of waiting, we finally got our main courses--the vegetarian stuffed cabbage were packages of cabbage stuffed with a rice mixture, and they came with a creamy, umami porcini mushroom sauce. I also had the roasted venison ("Old Polish style," according to the menu), which was covered in a thick, dark gravy. Venison is quite lean so it tasted rather dry, though the sauce complemented the meat quite well. We also got sides of boiled potatoes and bread to go with the meal. Overall, while the quality of ingredients here was good (and the prices amazing for fine dining), the flavor of each of the dishes felt a little "dead" on the palate and could have been better balanced. But if it's homestyle Polish cooking you're looking for, this is a great place to try it out!

This place is super different from my other indulgences. In fact, it was almost fancy! We are and shared many things. The pics show the yum mines!

Pod Baranem was our "nice night out" on a recent trip to Krakow - it's Michelin rated and the Yelp scores were good so we thought we'd treat ourselves. First, you'll probably need a reservation as they were very busy even on a weeknight - it seems to be a very popular place for larger groups of business people. We got off to a slightly rocky start - we were seated but then ignored for 10+ minutes (no menus, even) while tables around us were greeted and served. Once they finally got it together, things went smoothly. They have a comprehensive and reasonably priced (at least for US visitors) wine list as you might expect. We started with a bottle of rose, a smoked fish plate and venison pate. Everything is done in house including the fish smoking - my husband said the salmon was some of the best he'd had. I loved my pate too - it was not "too" rich and served with a lovely cranberry horseradish chutney. My next course was a special chicken broth with homemade meat dumplings. Great stock, and the dumplings were a nice change from the usual pasta. For a main, I picked schnitzel and it rivaled some of the best ones we'd had in Vienna and Prague. The Mister picked the wild boar tenderloin as multiple reviews mentioned it and he said it was fabulous. Items are ala carte, so we ordered some beets (delish), sauerkraut (homemade) and boiled potatoes to round out our light meal (ha!). Honestly, everything we had was really, really good. As noted above we didn't have the best start to service and our waiter was inclined to tell us what we "were" having versus what we might like, but it made for an interesting and delicious meal all the same. The overall atmosphere is generally romantic but they stuck us in a back room which really wasn't. Still, if you are looking for a special night out in Krakow, the food here definitely delivers.

The day I arrived in Krakow, my friend and I were starving!! We had no idea where to eat, had some time to kill and wanted something close to our hotel so we stumbled upon this restaurant based on Yelp reviews. This is a charming restaurant and the food is good! It is mostly Polish but they do offer a few other options. The waiters do speak English and help with recommendations. For some reason they all wear red shoes. It's quite inexpensive in Poland so you can get a 3-4 course meal or dishes to share and still be cheap. The restaurant was clean but the wall art was concerning. There were pictures of old women with no bras on and there was one with a man fingering a woman and laughing. Both were quite graphic and gross as they were old people. Not something I want to see while eating. We tried the spinach pancakes, they were ok, I liked the sauce but a little too spinachy. I tried the wild boar & it was lovely! My friend tried the cow tongue and it was disgusting...actual cow tongue with spots and a mushy tongue taste plus way too much horseradish. They served us with a bunch of side dishes mostly potatoes but they were all good.

My partner and I went Pod Baranem for dinner while visiting Kraków, and overall, it was a very tasty meal with very good service. Well that certainly isn't far from the old city, it's definitely not in the heat of all the pubs and bars around. We found this place by personal recommendation from a local couple we sat next to dinner at dinner the previous night, and they spoke very highly of this restaurant. I can see why. The servers spoke very good English, and we talked to them a bit and found out that almost all of them have been there for years. They really are proud of their restaurant and are professionals at making sure diners have a good time. For starters, we opted for the mushroom soup in a bread bowl and the foie gras. At first glance, this doesn't seem like the type a restaurant that would have a foie gras dish, but it was specifically recommended to us by that couple, and it was very delicious. The mushroom soup in a bread bowl was also very tasty. For entrée, my partner had the spare ribs, which were very tender. Dessert was its own stand out. I definitely recommend the "gingerbread." It's a cake with a coffee moose cream in the middle, and it was absolutely delicious. Probably one of the best dishes that we had while in Kraków. Overall, Pod Baranem is somewhat out-of-the-way, but worth the walk to the Wawel Castle. Very good service and very good food.

This has been one of our favorite restaurants in Krakow for over a decade. The prices have mostly remained the same but the portions have gotten smaller which is fine by us as we don't eat a lot in one sitting. They have one of the best tripe soups I've ever tasted and their pork chops and duck breast are always amazing. My husband loves the ribs wrapped in cabbage but it's a little rich for me. We've taken many friends and family there and everyone raves. Definitely worth a visit!

On my most recent trip to Europe, I wanted to make sure to visit a Michelin rated restaurant in every one of the countries I was visiting. My initial reservation fell through so I accessed the Michelin site to look for other restaurants that were within walking distance to my hotel. Pod Baranem was only a few blocks away from the market square so I was able to easily reserve evening reservations for dinner. What a quaint and comfortable restaurant! Inside, it was a warm and inviting atmosphere, with a fireplace and a small but efficient bar area that contributed a hushed white noise to the rest of the rooms. The waiters and host are extremely attentive and rushed over to take our coats and seated immediately. Pod Baranem has an extensive menu that encompasses various aspects of a traditional Polish fare. What we consider exotic here in the states is standard. The menu is in Polish as well as English for easy viewing. In order for the process to not be as complicated, I requested the advice of our waiter and he advised the following items: Naleśniki ze szpinakiem w sosie serowym Pancakes filled with spinach in cheese sauce -- two thick and cream filled crepes arrived and were probably the best I've had in Europe. They were soft and delicate and I consumed both of them prior to the entree. Big mistake. Barszcz z kołdunami Beetroot soup with savory dumplings -- Absolutely hands down the best borscht ever consumed. Better than the traditional Russian kinds. Remember to order this, you won't be let down. Pieczeń z dzika Wild boar roast -- Delicate and not rough at all. No gamey taste either. Polędwica w borowikach Fillet steak with porcini mushrooms -- steaks are different in Europe compared to the US. They are not fat or blubbery, which is my downfall, of course. But the porcinis added a good earthy foundation and the steak was a standard cut around palm weight. Dufinki Fried potato balls --Amazingly savory puffy balls of starchy delight. Huge portion so bear in mind. Maliniak Raspberry cake --Lovely layered and traditional cake here in Poland. Try it. Tort ajerkoniakowy "Krystyna" Layer cake "Krystyna" --Another traditional favorite. The cakes in Poland are a bit more dense than traditional Parisian cakes and not as sweet. Lovely flavors and textures. The dinners/lunches at many of these Michelin rated establishments easily took 2-3+ hours but understand that meals in Europe are for relaxation, not hurried as they are here in the states. In addition, the loudest people in the restaurant were the American tourists, which was humiliating since the table across from us was getting louder and louder as they consumed more wine and the behavior rude. No wonder American's are stereotyped and I understand. No manners in general is just rude. Rate 10 stars if I could. Our waiter was a lovely person and kept us in good spirits, while keeping comedic to the fact that my Polish sucked big time. Please remember to tip well. Given the lower exchange rate, the wait staff here depend on tips and the service here was top rated. Thank you for our Michelin rated dining experience in Krakow, well deserved!!

Love this restaurant...very good food and reasonable. I visited this restaurant twice in my short trip in krakow. Foods taste amazing and reasonable price. I love the fish soup as starter and Lithuania pork chop as main chop. Raspberry cheese cake dessert taste yummy. It is all men staffs...service is good and auick serving. I just love it here.

Delicious food. I have a gluten and dairy sensitivity and was able to order traditional pirogies that were gluten and dairy free. Delicious melt in your mouth meat pirogies and strawberry ones for dessert. The service was also fantastic. I highly recommend this place!!!

Recommended by local friends and did not disappoint. Very good soups and I would want to try them all. Other dishes were also very good. Traditional polish experience.

I was so happy that they had gluten free options! The chicken cutlet was very good! However the bigos wasn't how we like it/ how we make it and the bread was cold, since it was probably frozen and not heated up enough. The service was good, I would try it again.

Really great polish tradition food. I had an amazing boar steak. From soup, over beef tartare to the desert, all was just amazing. Local people go here regular as quality is highest standard, good service. Amazing lunch. Must come back soon.

Excellent. The service was impeccable and the servers all wore red shoes. ;) The food was well prepared, fresh and delicious. The drink selection was good and the pricing reasonable for the area. My husband and I ate for approximately $60.00 USD. I had the duck prepared in a cranberry sauce and potatoes and my husband had the wild boar.

Perfect setting, awesome food, amazing service - i was so happy that we chose to come here for our last dinner in Krakow. It was just us three ladies holding forth and we ordered a bunch of the specialties which did not disappoint - cabbage rolls, heavenly- I found myself simultaneously stuffing myself and wondering how I can get my mother to make this at home; the duck with apple sauce which I got was sublime. Best duck I have had in a long time. Those were the true highlights. I got the beet and dumplings soup too but it wasn't as good as another beet soup I had at a milkbar in Warsaw - other review forthcoming Highly recommend for an intimate dinner with loved ones

A nice, upscale restaurant found on a whim. We were sat immediately without a reservation. The bison filet was great and the meat pierogies were the best I've tasted. The chicken stuffed with mushrooms was equally as good. Overall, a great dining experience.

Great steak tartare. Already mixed and perfectly season. You only need to add a pinch of black pepper. Good thymus in savory creamy sauce. Delicious herrings. Profesional service and Interior design bringing back memories of old Cracow appartments. Highly recommend to anybody looking for good Polish cuisine.

We had lunch there, it was delicious!! made us sorry it was on our last day of our visit in Krakow, as we would definitely like to eat there again. Our waiter gave us great advise and was very pleasant (red shoes included..) The wild mushroom soup in bread was very tasty, as well as the Bouillon with savory dumplings. For the main we had wild boar tenderloins with forest sauce ... it was a treat, and the fillet steak with porcini mushrooms was just as good. Dessert we had Layer cake "Krystyna", which was wonderful. Polish food at its best to my view. Enjoy.. btw their home made vodka is the peak of all

My favorite restaurant in Krakow, especially for Polish food. I lived in Krakow for 8 years, and have been back to Pod Baranem at least once a year since moving to the US. Bottom line, phenomenal service, and delicious Polish food. And when I say phenomenal service, I mean really excellent honest to goodness old-school professional, courteous, un-intrusive service with a heavy dose of sincerity. And when I say delicious Polish food, I mean proper, homemade Polish food made with great ingredients, sticking to traditional recipes. I tend to go for the 'Dania Barowe', essentially the less- frills Polish food I learned to crave since a youngin', but you have to get there before 7pm to get these traditional Polish gems, pierogi, krokiety, galabki with a fantastically rich creamy mushroom sauce... damn I wish tickets weren't so expensive to Europe these days. Nonetheless, the proper dinner meals are super as well, anything from pork to venison, food is awesome. If you only have a few nights here, make a reservation and enjoy Polish food the right way. And seriously, make a reservation. Pod Baranem is written up in the Michelin guide, and since has been packed with European travelers alongside the adoring locals.

Awesome. Best meal we had not just in Kraków and one of the most memorable meals we've had in all of our travels. The pork chop was perfect as well as the venison. The beets and cabbage were also awesome. The location was also convenient.

This has been the best place we have eaten since we arrived abroad over two weeks ago. If you are looking for great food and friendly service, this is the place. We are just about everything on the menu. Do not pass up the cabbage rolls, steak, pierogis (of course), fried cabbage and the beef stroganoff. Such a great meal. We had a group of six and drank beer and had about six different desserts... Bill was less than 200.00 USD. They also accept Amex - another plus. Outstanding dinner and I'm going to try and go back again tonight.

Made reservations for our last meal in Kraków and it was worth it! We ordered stuffed cabbage with mushroom sauce for appetizer and it was very tasty (I think it had a mixture with liver). Our main meal were Boar steak with hunter sauce and venison steak with mushroom sauce. Both prepared to perfection. For sides, we ordered lightly fired potatoes and beets (which was mashed). The house wine was delicious and all waiters wear red shoes...how cool! A nice memory of polish cuisine it was.

Hands down my favourite meal in Krakow. We visited Krakow weekend before last and had made a reservation here at the suggestion of some friends. The restaurant was extremely cozy with romantic lighting paired with a pretty lively atmosphere. When our server came by we had not yet decided on the wine so asked for a beer and dirty martini to start. Server: "You want a dry martini, yes?" Me: "No, a dirty martini." Server: "Dir-ty martini? What is that?" Me: "You know, a normal dry martini but with the addition of olive brine." Server: "Um [blank stare]...okay I will tell the bartender." Haha such a funny exchange and I thought that with their passion about vodka, this would be a standard beverage. At any rate, when the drink arrived it was close enough (I think they added lime) and I was happy that they at least tried. As my starter I had the pancake filled with spinach in cheese sauce and J got the Krakow style herring. My starter was the clear winner. The crepe was nice and fluffy and was filled with a spinach soufflé of sorts. Great flavours and a perfect intro to their food. J's fish had good flavour but as it was whole, it was filled with bones so took a bit of work to eat. The jelly that it came with was also a bit strange but tasted nice. Next up were our mains and both were fantastic. I ordered the spare ribs in cabbage leaf with porcini mushroom sauce and a side of the fried potatoes. It was not the prettiest dish but once I took a bite I could not stop. Tender pork that was delicious with the cabbage. The potatoes sounded simple enough but they were so soft inside and the seasoning was wonderful. J's dish was the saddle of venison with forest sauce and a side of fried beetroot. No idea what forest sauce consists of but it was burgundy in colour and tasted lightly sweet and fruity. At any rate, his meat was well cooked and he enjoyed it. The surprise was the side of fried beetroot. I'm not a big beet fan but the server talked us into it and it was such a good decision. The beet flavour was quite light and had the consistency of a relish, making it the perfect companion for the veal. After our success with the starters and mains, we just knew we had to try dessert. We asked for the layer cake "Krystyna" and it was simply perfect. Lovely vanilla bean cream filling layered between moist white cake. After our dessert they brought out flavoured vodkas on the house. It was such a nice touch and topped off our already wonderful evening. We had the best service and incredible food at Restauracja Pod Baranem and even with our pre-dinner drinks and a bottle of wine, we were just below €100 for the two of us. Hope to return!

Ate here twice whilst in Krakow, the food on the first night was brilliant and the service was good. Second time the water service was poor and the steak was not cooked as asked. I ordered medium rare and got medium. The cheesecake desert was dry and stale Overall the owners could look at food consistency and better waiter training

Our Saturday night dinner at Pod Baranem was the best meal during our short weekend in Krakow. The food and service were both exceptional. Here's a breakdown of some of the items we ordered. Meat pierogies - excellent but a bit more doughy than others we have had. Goulash soup - excellent, possibly better than any we've had in Hungary. Pork schnitzel - excellent, certainly better than any we've had in Germany or Austria. I will dream of this dish for years to come. It's advised to book a reservation as the restaurant is very busy. We saw multiple groups of people stop in around 8pm-9pm who were turned away, even when there were empty tables. Booking a reservation was a piece of cake via their website. Would definitely recommend. I wish we would have dined here on our first night because I would have returned for our second night! The dress code is a bit strange. There were tables with patrons very dressed up (suits and nice dresses) and then there were tables with patrons in jeans and a nice top. It varies greatly. I personally wish we had a bit more dressy but I didn't feel underdressed or out of place by any means in my jeans and top.

Solid polish food with a minor twist. Quite large servings combined with heavy dishes might get you in the end, so be careful. The waiter knows what kind of side dish would suit your main course ... At least the beet root pure perfectly accompanied the heavy/creamy pork chop.

Finally I got to try some pirogues without gluten. Nice friendly place with everything for both meat eaters and vegetarians.

It was a spontaneous idea to go to this restaurant, so we were confronted with a crowded restaurant in which it is better to book a table before. But the waiter was so kind to give us a little nice table for two even without a reservation. The dishes were excellent and the service was exemplary. Especially the meat dishes were fantastic. Definitely worth trying this restaurant when you visit Krakow.

Excellent gluten free menu- several pages! We had gf pierogies, delicious entrees and fantastic deserts! Having Celiac disease I'm not used to having so many options- it was difficult to decide!

Good quality, one of the top rated in Krakow and also recommended by famous people for Polish cuisine...I have visited for private event and had good, fulfilling dinner with drinks :)

Wine by carafes Is a good compromise between by 'bottle' vs 'glass', for 2 people to share. Hot starters: stuffed cabbage leaves is DELiCIOUS! The mushroom base is tasty, fresh and creamy. We had the barley soup Kraków style, and the beef tripe soup. Both were superb. Slightly salty for me at first, but eating a few meals in Poland, you realize that everything is salty. The main course of venison was okay, roasted mutton (lamb) was good. Desserts : Krystyna was very good, ginger bread was very good. Great wait staff, great food, relaxed ambience. Highly recommend.

A tasty traditional Polish restaurant. Solid pierogies, solid zurek, interesting beef stew. Very nice staff. I've had better overall Polish in Gdansk area, so maybe I was expecting too much. This was good, but I did expect better.

Excellent food. Great stuffed cabbage . Wine list was diverse and of high quality. The best polish food in Kraków.

Byla to nasza pierwsza wizyta Pod Baranem. Mila atmosfera,doskonale i smaczne jedzenie. Dzieki doradzie Pana Mariusza moglismy skosztowac wieksza selekcje dan i wybranych do tego alkoholi. Duzy wybor klasycznego polskiego jedzenia. Polecamy!.

I was there for a familly meeting. The food was indeed OK, and tasty. Nothing fancy, but a solid and convincing cook's work. Waiters were great, professional and not intrusive. This is one of the best important qualities of the place. If You want to have some classic, traditional and safe cusine choices, you can go there, if you wish to pay adequately.

We had heard a lot of good reports about this restaurant. However, we were disappointed. It is very expensive with little to show for it. My polish duck looked interesting. It consisted of a substantial piece of thick ground duck wrapped in something. I found it too be far too fatty for my tastes, and not flavorful, but perhaps I'm not an expert in such things. My wife's fish was good, but not outstanding. Main dishes do not come with anything, so we ordered potato pancakes, puréed spinach and puréed beet root. The vegetables were ok, but rather bland. The potato pancakes were thin and very greasy. Two small bottles of water were 6 zlotys each. Service was good.

An excellent restaurant with a very large selection of gluten free options. It's a rare find when a couple where one person has Celiac can enjoy a fabulous 3 course meal that mirrors their spouse's choices on the menu but are prepared gluten free. The waitstaff is very knowledgeable about gluten sensitivity. I would highly recommend this restaurant whether or not you have gluten sensitivity.

Great food and good service; one of the best meals we had in Krakow. I ordered the wild boar and my girlfriend ordered the duck - both were delicious. The service was also better than expected. My girlfriend is Celiac, and our server was knowledgeable and accommodating. If you are looking for a white-linen place to dine, this is your spot.

Super food and service! The best deer I have ever had. The atmosphere was great and each dish was a joy to have. I will definitely go back the next time I am in town.

I don't know where to start! The service is BEYOND anything I would ever expect for the price, the food is continually excellent and totally flawless, and they have a GLUTEN FREE MENU!!! For those of us with Celiac, it's a miracle that Krakow has the only restaurant with a gluten-free menu of Polish delicacies. The golabki are delicious, the marinated salmon is amazing, but the pierogi are my favorite! I love that I can really get great Polish food without having to worry about my gluten sensitivity. The waiters there are AWESOME and I've been there so often we've become quite friendly :) Ask for Pan Wojtek, he'll take care of you. The owner is friends with the owner of Bezgluten, the main gluten-free manufacturer in Poland, and the staff is incredibly trained to avoid any cross-contamination. I cannot stop raving about this place, and EVERYONE I know in Krakow/who is visiting Krakow hears about this restaurant from me. I can't wait to come back!
