    I booked this restaurant on @getfinebite. It has beautiful environment and comfortable atmosphere. The waiters were a little busy but helpful. Very tasty Italian food. As far as the three dishes I ordered, they were all excellent, especially the Brodetto. I will recommend!

    Hands down, one of the top 3 restaurants I’ve ever visited in Krakow. The food was superb, the atmosphere is awesome and the service was great. The fig bruschetta was delicious and so was the pumpkin with spinach and ricotta. The papardelle bosciaola was incredible. This spot will definitely be my regular pick while in Krakow.

    Beautiful restaurant with tables set underground. The food was delicious and the waiter was very knowledgeable on the menu and wines, making excellent recommendations. Appetiser: Argentinian prawns in white wine and garlic. Main: Pasta with bacon mushroom and pine nuts in cream sauce

    Delicious :) The reviews did not disappointed. We enjoyed the meal a lot. We ordered a Boscaiola pizza to share, and my brother ordered duck with potatoes and I ordered spaghetti with gamberi. Then we shared a proper tiramisu on dessert. Very delicious.

    Best Italian experience in Krakow. The service was excellent and the food is delicious. I even asked if they have an Italian chef. And finally, a Krakow place where they know how to make Aperol! They offer complimentary cantuccis at the end. I highly recommend this.

    Had a family gathering there and it was quite a nice place. Definitely the best bruschetta I've ever had. The rest of the food was at a great level. Liked the drinks as well, although felt like the selection could be much larger. The service was great, can't really point anything outstanding or bad. It is at a proper level to ensure the customers are happy to stay at the place. I'd definitely recommend visiting this place during your stay in Kraków.

    Very nice ambience and selection of food & drinks. Overall I enjoyed my time here, my only complain is the bread of the fig bruschetta was not toasted well enough and became so soft & soggy it was hard to eat. Nice selection of wines and drinks as well. Would recommend reserving a table especially on weekends.

    Everything good, food was actually really nice! Would recommend! The price was 215 zł for the four dishes in the pictures, a water and a soft drink.

  • 3/5 Piotr A. 2 years ago on Google
    3 stars for the service not the food. They served all the seafood and pizzas and one of my friends waited more than 5 min to get the salad. I mean all people were eating beside one because of their kitchen disorganization. Beside that the food was good.

    Great service and location. The charcuterie and cheese plate, the pasta dish, and the wines were very good. The Brodetto could have been better.

    Amazing place! The interior is breathtaking. The staff is very helpful and kind. Food was absolutely delicious. We even got cookies to go. Next time we're in Krakow, we're definitely visiting here again.

    Very good food and nice customer service. I recommend. Had the pasta with chicken and pear with cream sauce and almond.. was delicious

  • 5/5 Mark C. 9 months ago on Google
    Great central location, very beautiful old building, good background mood music, attentive service (nothing too much trouble) reasonable prices. Food was excellent. We found the restaurant and service so good we decided to dine there for every evening we were in Kraków (= 3 nights). Highly recommended, Good quality pasta and pizzas. Regrettably, we didn't take any photos of the main dishes but we had 2 x pizzas and 4 x pasta dishes. You can't go wrong!!

  • 5/5 Kasia Y. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing pizza! One of the best we ever had. Very friendly staff too

  • 3/5 Anetka C. 2 years ago on Google
    Avoid the lasagna. Looked good, but basically tasteless. The meat was unseasoned, other than salt, cooked between lasagna noodles most likely in water, and served with an equally unseasoned and tasteless tomato sauce. They were attempting something authentic with the bechamel sauce and parmesan baked on top - but the same result would be achieved with boiled meat and noodles topped with passata from a bottle. Very disappointed. I plan to try it again in the hope that this is the only dud on the menu. I see some very good reviews so hope that is the case. It's so hard to find authentic ethnic food in Krakow, sigh. (Check any Italian recipe for lasagna - the meat is mixed with the sauce, there are onions and carrots and celery, ie, tasty). Service was excellent, however.

  • 5/5 Imran D. 1 year ago on Google
    It's in the center of Krakow. From outside it looks small, but it has lots of spaces inside in lower ground/underground to accommodate around 40/50 people! Food was good.

  • 5/5 Aneta C. 1 year ago on Google
    Real Italian place! The food was absolutely delicious 🤗 We ordered bruscetta x 2, tagliolini pomodoro el burrata pappadrelle boscaiola, spaghetti al frutti di mare and veal with gnocchi. Everyone was just delighted. The service was really first class. Plus the place is cosy and it's a pleasure to have a meal there 😀 totally recommend!

    Lovely Italian restaurant, excellent service with great food.

  • 3/5 Jocelyn N. 1 year ago on Google
    Really nice vibe for a date or with a group of friends but unfortunately the food is not up to par. We ordered a pizza (which tasted good to be fair) but the shrimp pasta was absolutely disappointing - it costed 54pln, portion was small + barely any ingredients on it (4 pieces of shrimp to be exact) + was quite bland. You could easily get something much more delicious somewhere else at this price. Inflation does not justify this. Service was good though. Wouldn't recommend unless you're a tourist who's hungry in old town and just need a decent normal meal. It seemed busy on a weekend night and we did make a reservation so did not have to wait.

    Amazing, service fantastic. Olives were so so tasty and the pasta was just brilliant!!! Worth a visit.

  • 5/5 Anthony M. 1 year ago on Google
    I had a great pizza and my friends had some quality pasta. The waiter was super friendly and even though we were there for a long time we did not feel rushed or pressured to finish up. Prices, considering the quality of the food were not too bad. Other restaurants in the old city are not such good value. Has both indoor and outdoor seating options.

  • 5/5 Danielle G. 2 years ago on Google
    Absolutely delicious. Perfect find. The staff where lovey nice atmosphere.

  • 5/5 Michael P. 2 years ago on Google
    Lovely food if not warmest of welcomes, but we did not have a reservation. So make sure you book. Food was excellent as was the atmosphere. Highly recommended.

  • 4/5 Olga Y. 1 year ago on Google
    Very good food, atmosphere, and stuff. Free olives and water: normal and sparkling:) Soup is delicious, Panna cotta is wonderful as well. Atmosphere is cozy, good location in a Cracow centre. Prices are higher that usual Polish, but I would say "European".

  • 5/5 Mindaugas V. 1 year ago on Google
    Best food we've had in Poland during our 1 week trip! Lasagne looks weird swimming in a pool of tomato sauce, but this sauce is extremely delicious! 🤤 Thank you!

  • 5/5 Daniel P. 2 years ago on Google
    The service and the food were really good. The restaurant itself is pretty and you can feel a good environment. You must try it, it deserves

  • 5/5 Julie 2 years ago on Google
    Lovely cosy restaurant, fabulous Olives and bread. Friendly staff, good menu, very reasonable price. Would definitely recommend this Italian.

  • 3/5 Lidiya A. 2 years ago on Google
    I give 3 stars to this place only for a very kind service of my lovely and smiley waitress. Tasteless dry pasta and the same was the focaccia with garlic... not even a piece of garlic on it, no spices...just a bit of olive oil - that's it. For the quality of food it's too overpriced. Thank you to a pastry chef though of this restaurant who prepared a really nice pannacota. If you are looking for a really delicious Italian food with flavor, I do not recommend this place.

  • 5/5 Mehmet K. 2 years ago on Google
    Very nice place for a romantic dinner. Prices are a bit high but dishes are very delicious from dessert to meals. I like the location and the atmosphere very much. If ı have got to have an important meal I would prefer this place. Thank you for everything.
