One of Poland's leading fine dining restaurants, and a place worth visiting for almost every new set. Chef Marcin Przybysz of Epoka finds inspiration in ancient Polish recipes and interprets them in a modern way. Everything is on the table: forgotten dishes from three centuries ago, ancient folios, and unexplored regional ingredients, resulting in interesting, educational, delicate, and incredibly beautiful dishes.
At Nuta, they manage to blend Polish and Italian cuisine, adding a touch of Asian influence and generously seasoning it with wonderfully crazy ideas from the chef Andrea Camastra. One of the definite must-visit restaurants in the Polish capital.
This small, modern restaurant surprises in every possible way. Starting from the restrained yet very elegant interior, contrasting with the backstreets of Jagiellonska Street, and ending with the local gastronomy - witty, sophisticated, and brilliantly executed: every detail here is thought through to perfection. The menu is designed so that you can either order 4-5 small dishes a la carte or opt for a tasting menu with a very decent wine pairing.
Alewino is now not only a wine shop and bar, but also stands out for its sophisticated dishes: traditional Polish cuisine meets refined, meticulous preparation. A long starter menu invites you to order several plates at once, share and try your way through. Happiness shared is happiness doubled!
It's hard to imagine a more suitable location for a Polish cuisine restaurant than the main park of Warsaw – Łazienki Królewskie (Royal Łazienki Park), At Belvedere, which is located in the historical building of the New Orangery, they serve elegant and aristocratic Polish dishes, the kind that would have easily graced the table of the Polish monarch several centuries ago.
This is an absolutely cult place. Within half an hour after opening, there are usually no free tables, and the queue at the entrance are enormous. The dishes here are vibrant, but familiar to everyone, and their execution is flawless. But the most important thing is that they are meant to be shared. Here, you should order a good portion of the menu, spread the plates across the table, try and discuss all of it under a glass of natural wine. And preferably, one should do it with a good company.
The main word to describe Kieliszki na Próżnej is balance. Balance between the contents of the plates and the glasses, as well as the prices for all of the above. And in this case, the balance comes close to perfection. The wines offered here are unique specimens from small and medium-sized wineries, and the gastronomic part always presents delightful surprises. The overall atmosphere and vibe prove that Kieliszki is suitable for almost any occasion - from a date to a business meeting.
A concept almost entirely revolving around fish and seafood, of exceptional quality and superbly executed. Everything is utilized: unconventional parts of fish, insanely beautiful presentation, a conscious approach to fishing, and a nose-to-tail cooking format - it seems that there is simply no place in Warsaw where the creatures of seas, oceans, lakes, and rivers are prepared more interestingly than at Tuna.
One of the most fashionable and stylish places in Warsaw, with a huge terrace and a magnificent view of the city center. The interior cleverly combines strict geometric design with homages to 1960s New York and works by iconic Polish artists. The menu boasts an array of gastronomic starters, from the spuntini set to a flawlessly executed tuna tartare with artichokes and lemon aioli, all designed to pair perfectly with the local cocktails, which are perhaps the main pride of Loreta bar.
Modern Polish cuisine with all the conveniences. Inside, minimalism reigns – with a lot of white color, tons of round lampshades, marble tabletops, and precise geometry. In such settings, modern but intelligently crafted Polish cuisine looks particularly appealing. So much so that The Eatery is rightfully considered one of the main ambassadors of the new wave of Polish cuisine.
A wonderfully crazy synthesis of traditional Polish cuisine and modern culinary approach: with bold flavors, unconventional dishes, clever twists, and vintage porcelain serving. In addition to the elaborate, yet very Polish in spirit, cuisine, there's an extensive selection of natural and biodynamic wines and an irresistibly unobtrusive atmosphere.
Once a butcher's shop, the tradition is evident the moment you step in. The first thing you'll see is a huge display of cuts, sausages, and burger patties. While you could technically buy these «to go», the best way to experience Mięsny is to consult the menu and order one of their seven local steaks. All the food here is genius in its simplicity and quality. If you think a perfect meat restaurant needs something more, you're mistaken.
A prestigious and grand steakhouse with all the amenities, exuding a timeless atmosphere. The interior is calm and minimalistic, and the menu features meticulously executed classics that will undoubtedly appeal to everyone. The stars of the show here are, of course, the steaks - robust, straightforward, and served with an unimaginable variety of side dishes.
An old-fashioned and sophisticated steakhouse inspired by Argentine culture. The exposed brick building from 1900, art objects, and antiques create an atmosphere where people have been enjoying steaks like T-Bone, Tomahawk, and the obligatory Parrillada for over a century. It's a classic and timeless place.
Located in a Szucha Palace, the restaurant boasts a sophisticated atmosphere of the 1920s and 1930s, but without excessive pomp. On the shelves, plump bottles of tinctures glisten, above the marble fireplace hang portraits of the bygone era, and the menu features exquisite dishes from Warsaw and Lviv cuisines, such as crayfish soup and obligatory caviar.
Stary Dom is a cult and timeless place. The name, which translates to «Old House», accurately reflects the essence of the restaurant – it truly resembles an old Polish mansion. The interior features noble wood and stone, with antique chandeliers hanging from the ceiling, and the menu offers iconic Polish dishes, simple and refined. Of course, such surroundings wouldn't be complete without old-fashioned details like a fancy dessert display and a bar trolley for digestives.
The restaurant's name is not just empty words or a metaphor - the owners indeed have their own farm in Warmian-MasurianVoivodeship, where they grow high-quality vegetables and breed Aberdeen Angus cattle. Any products they lack are sourced from local suppliers and brought directly to the restaurant. Needless to say, the quality of every ingredient - from cheeses from Złotna goat farm to fish raised in the Zielenica estate - is close to perfection. The main focus, of course, is on the steaks - for them, there is a large counter in the heart of the restaurant where customers can choose their favorite cut and enjoy meat of exemplary farm quality.
Translated from Polish, the name means «Ribs and Bones», and just from that, you can already guess the local gastronomic preferences. While there are decent selections of appetizers and soups, the main focus here is on the rib sections - slow-roasted beef ribs and pork ribs, as well as dry-aged steaks for a minimum of 27 days.
Café Bristol can easily be called one of Warsaw's landmarks. It is located in a hotel built in 1901, right in the heart of Warsaw, just a stone's throw away from the Old Town. Inside, an almost pre-war atmosphere prevails – reserved, elegant, and noble. The menu offers perfectly executed classics that are as visually appealing as they are delicious.
Mozaika is a cult place for several generations of Warsaw locals. The cafe appeared here in the 1960s, and at that time, it was the meeting place for the entire local bohemian crowd – with dancing, lively parties, traditional Polish cuisine, and a decent amount of alcohol. The new owners decided not to completely break the concept but to merge the old and the new into a unique and incomparable mix. The menu now focuses on Mediterranean and Middle Eastern dishes (although some classic items, including the Warsaw-style tartare, remain).
