This restaurant was recommended to us at our hotel. It was an excellent recommendation. The food was excellent, plentiful, and tasty. Typical Czech food, and the beer was excellent. The staff was truly helpful and professional. The location is in the city center, a 10-minute walk from Prague Castle. There's seating for smokers, too. The prices are very reasonable and accessible to everyone. The place was really clean and tidy, with an open kitchen. I recommend going and checking out their dishes. We've been there twice. If you're looking for Traditional Czech home made food, this is THE place. Great homely atmosphere, good selection of beers (I like the Dark) and the desert was spot on. Many thanks to Valcà and Marina for the excellent service. Definitely coming back. Cozy spot with a cute outdoor area and plenty of tables. Chicken schnitzel and goulash in a bread bowl were delicious. Apple strudel was yummy but sitting in a ton of vanilla sauce. Service was good and we got seated immediately.

Warm hospitality and a truly memorable experience I visited Restaurace U Mlynáře with a small group and had a wonderful time. We had a reservation and were seated at a spacious table that made us feel comfortable right away. The menu offered a nice selection of traditional Czech dishes, and I personally ordered a chicken schnitzel, which was perfectly prepared. While the wait between courses was slightly longer due to fresh preparation, the quality of the food made it absolutely worth it — everything was delicious and satisfying, at a fair, mid-range price. What truly made this visit special was the exceptional service. The staff were genuinely kind, attentive, and eager to make our experience enjoyable. They answered every question with a smile, made sure we were well taken care of, and went above and beyond to create a personal connection. At the end of the meal, they surprised us with a handwritten postcard in both Czech and our language, personalized with names — a thoughtful and rare gesture that turned a great meal into an unforgettable memory. 5 stars for the heart and hospitality. The waiters truly made the difference.

We had our very first dinner in this beautiful city at Umlynare, and it was a wonderful experience! We were warmly welcomed, and the atmosphere immediately made us feel at home. The food was excellent — delicious, traditional Czech cuisine, perfectly prepared and beautifully served. The staff were attentive, kind, and professional throughout our meal. A special thank you to Kuba and Martina for their outstanding service — you made our evening truly memorable! Highly recommended for anyone looking for authentic Czech food and genuine hospitality in Prague.
