    (Translated by Google) A unique experience! It was an indication of a friend of mine who was in Prague. The service of the restaurant is differentiated and elevated to the level of Prague. Friendly, polite waiter, gave tips ... the food is absurdly tasty !! A great find !! Congratulations to the whole team! I will be back more often ... highly recommended !!! PS: Michelin star 2018. (Original) Uma experiência única! Foi indicação de um amigo meu que esteve em Praga. O atendimento do restaurante é diferenciado e elevado pro nível de Praga. Garçom cordial, educado, deu dicas... a comida é absurdamente saborosa!! Um grande achado!! Parabéns pra toda equipe! Voltarei mais vezes... recomendadíssimo!!! PS: Estrela Michelin 2018.

    Great address if you’re looking for an Italian fine dining place in Prague. Super cozy atmosphere and the wine cellar downstairs is strikingly stunning. The ingredients of every course tasted fresh in themselves and you’ll notice that everything is a product of great quality. Never had such good carrots - Chapeau !! Would still have loved to see a bit more simplicity in the presentation, as well as in the combination of flavors. Great experience though :-)

    We came here for lunch as it was on the michelin guide, our only regret was that we didn't go for dinner instead! The decor is fancy/chilled, the staff are friendly and have wonderful English. We tried serval of the house wines by the glass of which all were beautiful. We had 3 courses for lunch, and all was delicious, but the beef tartar was the star, exceptional ! Highly recommended 👌

    A bit away from the tourist attraction areas, but the restaurant has a very cool vibe with their decoration and setting. Worth every cent spent here. The wait staff was very friendly, explaining things from the menu as well as daily specials. The food was also delicious as well. The bread was fresh and the butter was great. I ordered grilled octopus with risotto, loved the presentation the the flavor. For dessert we got tiramisu, it came with ice cream as well as ground pistachios. Highly recommend the place for great food and atmosphere.

    We had very high expectations due to a friend recommendation, and even though we had a nice meal, will not place this restaurant in my top #10. The dishes are very well presented, and in general very tasty. The handmade bread was top as appetizer. Out of the 4 dishes we ordered 3 were delicious, however the pasta Cacio e Peppe was quite disappointing as it barely has taste of Cacio. The place is fabulous, but we were not impress with the service. Either they take away the plate as soon as they are empty (a bit stressful) or they take 15min to bring the coffee and another 15min for the bill. Also it was the only place we have been in Prague that was not happy to take the tip in the credit, but with a double payment on the card (extra bank fees for us) or by cash.

    (Translated by Google) The staff are very friendly. But the food did not suit my taste ㅠㅠ each person has a different taste ... Especially the fishy fishy pasta was a bit of a shock was shocking. It was beef ribs, but I recommend it, but it was ok and the potatoes that came with it were really delicious. Ravioli has a strong truffle scent and it was delicious but the people I went with don't like it. It's a taste difference too! For reference, I didn't want to drink the tap water, so I watered it, and it was just lime water because it came out of the water bottle. I don't remember exactly 100 times. haha. Looking at the receipt, it seemed like the bread that came out was free. Anyway, the atmosphere of the restaurant and the kindness of the staff were good. (Original) 직원분들은 엄청 친절해요. 하지만 음식이 제 입맛에 맞지는 않았네요 ㅠㅠ 사람마다 입맛에 차이가 있으니...특히 약간 생선 비린내가 심하게 나는 파스타는 충격이였어요. 소고기립이였나 그건 추천해주셔서 시켰는데 괜찮았고 거기에 같이 곁들여져 나온 감자가 진짜 맛있었어요. 라비올리도 트러플향이 진하게 나고 저는 맛있었는데 같이 간 사람들은 입에 안맞는다고 하더라구요. 역시 취향차이긴해요..! 참고로 수돗물을 먹기싫어서 물을 시켰더니 그냥 물병에 나오길래 그냥 석회수 물인건가 했는데 (딱 3잔 나오는 양) 나중에 보니 결제되었더라구요. 정확히 기억은 안나나 100코루나 넘었어요. 하하. 영수증을 보니 같이 나온 빵은 무료인 것 같았어요. 아무튼 식당의 분위기,직원의 친절함은 좋았던 곳입니다.

    Fantastic food, super pleasant atmosphere, and professional, unpretentious staff. Our favorite restaurant for birthdays, anniversaries, out of town guests, or just when we want to treat ourselves. We have never been disappointed. The decor is cozy and elegant. Would be ideal for a dinner date.

    I went there with a lot of expectations but in the end I end up disappointed. Nothing different or attractive. Just regular dishes. Pasta bit hard, not 'al dente'. Sauce below the average. Too hot inside the restaurant. Uncomfortable. The service is fine.

    AMAZING STEAK! Really good, amazing salad as well. We expected high price for steak but actually paid much less than expected. Steak was melting in the mouth as hoped for medium rare...

    A beautiful restaurant in the heart of the old city of Prague. The service is good and not too much. The place is warm, and the atmosphere is cosy. The selection of food for lunch was good and the dishes of the day, mainly fish interesting. We ordered a Buratta Salat as a starter to share and as a main we ordered the octopus with baby artichoke and the calamari risotto with its ink. Presentation was a five star as well as the tastes. Great combination of tastes in all dishes. In the buratta we hat 3 different sorts of tomatoes: sun dried, confit and raw. Great tastes. I would highly recommend the restaurant.

    We went to this restaurant yesterday, and the truth is that it was spectacular, the service is very good from start to finish, and the food was amazing. I think we were lucky because we had a Christmas menu that was a little cheaper than usual, otherwise I think the restaurant is expensive, but well it was worth it, we had a fabulous risotto with white truffle, escalope with puree, salad and for dessert a tiramisu. completely recommended!!

  • 5/5 Navot S. 7 months ago on Google • 29 reviews
    A meal to remember and a place to come back to . We had a perfect experience the food was great and the service implacable . And if you like your wine the place is heaven . Wine cellar from wine ferry tales land .

  • 5/5 Nir A. 9 months ago on Google • 18 reviews
    Everything was Perfect!! It’s a high class, Michelin level restaurant. For the first course we took the Caprese salad with buratta cheese and the tortellini filled with ricotta cheese, both were great. For the main course we took the Sea Bass for 2 , it was really great, including the side dishes. The tiramisu at the end was really special. Service was at the highest level, I’ll definitely be back !!!

    A friend of mine recommended this restaurant. I had dinner here on my last night in Prague and I cannot stress how wonderful it was. The food was impeccable and the service was some of the best I've ever had. My experience made for a wonderful birthday treat. I will definitely be returning when I am back in Prague!

  • 4/5 Mojak 6 months ago on Google • 16 reviews
    I would rate it 4.5 if that were an option. We had a good dining experience. My starter, the risotto al nero, was absolutely delightful, despite its unassuming appearance😅. Regrettably, my boyfriend wasn't as pleased with the chicken soup; he found it a bit too simple. The rib was decent but not extraordinary. On the other hand, I thoroughly enjoyed the Spaghetti Benedetto Cavalieri that my boyfriend ordered.

  • 4/5 Nadine A. 9 months ago on Google • 16 reviews
    Delicious dinner at this Michelin guide restaurant. We sat in the main dining room in the front. Nice and simple decor. Service was good and food was delicious. The truffle risotto was divine!!!!!!!! A must try. We also had the beef tartare, the grilled sea-bass (filet and deboned table side), fried zucchini, linguini with mussels and the tiramisu. They have an excellent wine list. Charles, the sommelier, helped us with our selections which was great! If you’re ever in Prague, add this one to your list.

  • 5/5 Tom L. 8 months ago on Google
    Spectacular. It's my 5th or 6th visit and it's getting better each time. If you look for elite Italian kitchen, it doesn't get any better than this, definitely not at this side of Vlatava.

  • 5/5 J A. 11 months ago on Google
    After a morning enjoying some sightseeing, you walked into La Finestra and it felt like you was somewhere else, calm and totally relaxed. Food was amazing as was the service. I wouldn't hesitate to go back.

  • 5/5 Simone 2 years ago on Google
    Fine Italian food in Prague! We got lucky getting a last minute reservation for one evening. Inside is cozy and perfect for a date. It was truffle season so I had the truffle pasta, home made of course and the best I’ve seen so far, buttery and velvety with perfect portion size. Menu is small and also the other dishes seen looked amazing.

  • 4/5 Csaba H. 2 years ago on Google
    Although the food was ok, the temperature of the restaurant was too hot for me, the aircon was not on, so it took out of the evening I could not enjoy.

  • 4/5 Dorothy P. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice setting, nice food, on the expensive side. With a sense of humour too: what would you expect when you order chocolate cake with truffle ice cream? I didn’t expect truffle as in the fungus type, and I am still wondering whether some people enjoy fungus ice cream…

  • 3/5 Amy V. 3 years ago on Google
    The food was nice and they tell you that you are getting complimentary this and that, but in fact it's so they can charge so much for everything. They charged 115czk for water in a re-usable bottle........(tap water!!!). I have NEVER been charged that much for water in a restaurant especially tap water. And then when we wanted to pay by card at the end of the night they claimed that the credit card terminal wasn't working...... Very strange for a place that is expensive. How do they expect people to have cash in hand. Luckily my friend and I were able to put our money together, otherwise the waiter wanted us to go to an ATM outside to get the cash. Very strange ending to the night.

  • 5/5 Thanh Niem V. 7 years ago on Google
    We had lunch in the restaurant. It's a high-end restaurant with a soft and elegant decor. The food was cooked with fresh ingredients so you can feel the full flavour of Mediterranean product. Staff was friendly and professional. If you have smaller budget, you can try the groceries and delis next door, it's the same owners. You don't have the same service and meals as in the restaurant but the flavour is always there!!!

  • 5/5 serena chen y. 5 years ago on Google
    My mum and I had such a superb dining experience here. We were in Prague for only a day and unfortunately it was a public holiday so none of the activities I had planned was available. We were looking for a nice place to spend some time at a long lunch and stumbled upon La Finestra. The best fish and spinach and tiramisu I ever had. The food is spectacular. The service as well was excellent. Our waiter was cute and friendly, and the pretty waitress who prepared our fish was very helpful as well. Do tip them in cash if possible because I heard the waiter saying that the credit card company takes half the tipping part of we pay by card. They accept euros too!

    Good restaurant. First the infrastructure of the restaurant is really amazing. The waiters are gentle and efficients. We have a closed menu, but the quality of the food was good,but the quantity could be better. The ice cream is a normal one, and really do not follow the quality of the restaurant. The ginger tea is a good too. The toilet is really clean and kind of fancy. Really a good option to go, but you pay a good priced for everything.

    Food was good, but they take advantage on our group of 8 tourists. They charged us 50€ tips that is theorically for group menus and less expensives, but they never propose us a group menu. Also, they charged a 700g veal while veal was around 400g and that menu indicated a 350g price only, waiter never precise it, surprise at the end. For a restaurant of this standing it's a shame. This is theft.

  • 5/5 Pascal W. 3 years ago on Google
    Wonderful experience for dinner. Excellent service, extremly good wines with a hugh choice of it and a very delicious meal from the starter, to the main menue to the dessert. Highly recommendable if you are looking for a extravagant dinner to a higher, but an applicable price.

  • 4/5 Summer Ballet Intensive S. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Unfortunately a little disappointing. Service really excellent, all very nice. The food tastes interesting, although the portions are perhaps too small. In order to eat, you need to take all the moves. The dessert was weaker and really very tiny. The fact that the restaurant presents itself as luxury requires quite terrible, diverse dishes, it reminded me of plates from IKEA. Dessert on the same plate as previously served fish, or mascarpone in some ordinary glass. Some may not mind, but it hindered my experience of eating. (Original) Bohužel trošku zklamání. Servis skutečně výborný, všichni velmi příjemní. Jídlo chuťově zajímavé i když porce snad až přehnaně malé. Aby se člověk najedl, je třeba si dát všechny chody. Dezert byl slabší a skutečně velmi malinkatý. Na to že se restaurace prezentuje jako luxusní je třeba nádobí dost strašné, různorodé, připomínalo mi to talíře z IKEA. Dezert na stejném talíři jako předtím servírované ryba, nebo mascarpone v nějaké obyčejné skleničce. Někomu to možná nevadí, ale mně to k zážitku z jídla překáželo.
