    Literally a tourist restaurant. The place specializes at Czech cuisine and has menu in many different languages. I haven't try to speak with stuff in other as Czech language so I can't tell how to they handle spoken foreign language. The daily, or more like weekly menu, is always the same - a list of typical mostly Czech meals that would be considered as fast food anywhere else. The only thing that changes is a daily soup. I was able to choose from 2 daily soups - creamy mushroom soup and garlic soup with roasted bread. I had garlic soup that was a little too oily for me, but it might have been only my personal preference. I chose fried chicken steak with potato salad as the main dish. The meat was too salty. That was not the preference, that was a fact. I had very good feeling out of the interior, but below average from the slow waiting and from the taste of the meals. Because of that, the place doesn't use its full potential. I believe that foreigners would enjoy the restaurant and the Czech cuisine more that someone local.

    We have heard good things about this place, so decided to give it a try. Sadly, this was not the experience we expected. The food was bad, the service was even worse. There was little interest from the server, and it was taking very long time. Food was disappointment, more like bad restaurant in a village then and a good place in a major town. I suspect the good reviews were from distant past.

    Service is very friendly and quick. The food I ordered was steak and I savored every bite! The portion was just right, medium-rare and great pepper-mustard sauce. Price is just right for what quality you get. Every time I visit Brno I make 'U Spalicku' my restaurant of choice!

    Eat here. Be hungry. Don't expect a free seat, it's generally packed. Be patient or reserve in advance. Great traditional food. As you would expect. Like food time traveling in the past. Service is great at ignoring you, but friendly and very helpful when they get to you. :) The mixed plate (first item in specialties) is a great cross cut through traditional meats and dumpling variations on silky smooth cabbage sauce. Though perhaps a little much variety. Germans will have the wrong expectations about the Bratwurst, is is actually made with red cured meat and quite spicy. The cold vinegar sausage starter is objectively not good at all. :) The deer dish was very rich and deep. The menu is written in Czech, German, Italian and Russian. It is very helpful and describes dishes quite well.

    This menu was incredibly enticing, it was hard to choose what to eat. I got the duck and I have no regrets. It was juicy and the complimentary sauces were great. The dumpling assortments are all great and so was the beer. Add on the fact that you are near the Brno Outdoor Market, which is extremely beautiful, and you have yourself a fantastic night. This is easily a restaurant you want to go to if you only spend one night in Brno.

    Had a baked knee which was poorly cooked, meat is supposed to fall of the bone by itself, schnitzels were decent, while service behind the bar lacked some basic manners, it feels more like a tourist trap.

    Great experience. They have a lunch offer from Monday to Friday (11AM-2PM). Delicious soup and variety of second courses for a reasonable price. I would totally recommend the fried cauliflower!!

    Delicious food, menu was in English but our waiter was very accommodating! We wanted traditional food which we received and we were not disappointed!! The pancakes for dessert were delicious with plum jam and poppy seeds we barely took a photo because it was so good!! The duck and cabbage dish was delicious and the beers both dark and light were excellent 👌 Highly recommended!

    I love this place. I always eat here when I am in town. I have not had a bad meal, this is traditional, check food, and it is great.

    The food was between mediocre to horrible! The portion sizes were ridiculous 80% fillers and 20% of the actual dish. The place smelled like a overlooked oil and yeast! When explaining to the waiter the dishes were uneatable he replied that they cannot be exchanged! The experience was horrible and will not recommend going is there! Stay away!

    Simply delicious! We enjoyed all the dishes and especially the traditional local veal goulash, rabbit with plum sauce and the potatoes salad!!

    Great typical Czech food

  • 2/5 Vitaly G. 1 year ago on Google
    Half of the menu is missing in reality. Even if they say it is there, when you get your plate, you find out that many promised ingredients are missing. The food quality is very average. You won't get out hungry, but you won't enjoy it

  • 4/5 Yassen “Frickelbude” T. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice moravian restaurant at the very heart of Stare Brno, on a corner of Cabbage Market. Old-style interior, not too long menu in several languages, inside and outside seating - and you can pay with credit card. Seems to be very well visited, since one other dish can be already sold out in the evening - but tasty nevertheless and a nice place to sit and look at the square. We were able to find place without making a reservation but guess it would be a good idea ti book in advance

    Cute place, not many people. Staff spoke English and food portions were huge!

    Traditional atmosphere, really kind, welcoming waiter. The food was very good (and portions were huge! Luckily it is possible to take away!).
