vetted restaurants / cafes in Prague
- Buddha BarOn probation
Atmosphere. Usual order: sushi or sesame tuna. Cons: expensive for the quality, meh clientele.
- Kampa ParkFavorite
Great location. Usual order: octopus. Nice, hidden, and fancy — special occasion spot.
- AromiOn probation
Atmosphere is good, food is good but not outstanding. Good scallops, extremely expensive for the quality — might not like anymore.
- Wine Food Market
Good food, nostalgia. Casual, good meat, but the seating can be a bit too close.
- Pot au FeuOn probation
Good location and decent food, but small room and you can hear everyone else.
- Obecní dům / Café Imperial
Obecní dům is better. Good atmosphere for visiting friends; touristy and busy. Wouldn't go there just for myself.
- George SteakhouseOn probation
Love the atmosphere. Caramelized carrots, French onion soup, truffle mac and cheese. Too high risk of running into people.

Favorite, but pretty casual and busy. Jerusalem artichoke, kimchi squid.
- Four SeasonsOn probation
Good location, quiet.
- La Casa Argentina SteakhouseDowngrade
Not for dates. Super annoying performances, but decent food.
- Chester SteakhouseDowngrade
Hate the seating unless on the sides of the room. Casual, bad lighting, food is good.
- Yuniku Korean Charcoal GrillOn probation
Can be busy and casual. More of an activity than great food.
- Next Door by Imperial / Imperial
Questionable — not sure how I feel about it.

Love the atmosphere, similar to ZEM. Good service, good food, like the tartar.
