    One of my favourite restaurants in NYC. Amazing flavours in every dish! Try the duck confit risotto, scallops with pork shank and BEER PANCAKES. Get the beer too! Exceptional service as well!

    The food choices are unique & beautifully plated. The pilsner 4 ways is fun to sample. Portions are small and prices are high. Server was friendly and knowledgeable. Was still hungry after 3 courses.

    This Czech-influenced gastropub has a tasteful menu of small plates. The fried egg bread, crusty and warm with sliced ham, or the local duck breast flecked with huckleberries are solid choices.

    Everything about this place is 5 star. Beer flight is great for those looking to try some fun brews from Pilsner Urquell. Happy hour 4-7! Half price beers. Great ambience.

    The beers are great. But, for you foodies out there... Wow! That's all I can say. Everything is unique and absolutely delicious. A bit pricey, but an enjoyable experience.

    VERY disappointing portions. There's too much legit food in UES for this to be in my top 10. With that said, GREAT beer selection and good, attentive service. Go with the duck.

    Sample Pilsner Urquell poured 4 ways. And since you're not the type of guy to leave a project half-finished, there's also good eating like smoked veal tongue, veal schnitzel, & Prague-style ham. Read more

    This place may look like a hole in the wall on the outside but, like our mothers told us,” don’t judge a book by its cover.” Try the authentic Czech pilsner and duck breast, for a pallet testing meal.

    Try the exceptional beef tongue. The meat is poached until meltingly tender, gently smoked then sliced into supple batons. It’s one of our #100best dishes and drinks of 2011. Read more

    Cute place, great food, friendly service. Go here for dinner and/or excellent Czech beer on tap.

    Beef tartare isn't something I generally love. It is now. The truffle essence is just right.

    They only serve one type of beer (Pilsner Urquell), served four different ways. Not convinced? Try the Creme Urquell, and you'll never think about Czech Pilsners the same way again.
