Friendly service. Chicken schnitzel was a decent size, crisp and fat free. Goulash was perfectly pleasant. A good safe choice for a meal without problems. More

We went to Svejk U Karla on Kremencova after having read that they have a gluten-free menu. The restaurant itself it right beside U Flek which seems quite touristy. This one has its share of 'touristy'ness as the staff are in costume. The service was fairly good, though minimal at times. We went on a Monday evening - the first... More

Came here through recommendation of walking tour guide. After 2 1/2 hr walk it was a very welcome stop. Warm and welcoming. Staff were very attentive and helpful. Had salmon soup, which was very tasty, followed by trad fried cheese dish. Cost was extremely good value for us, as Australians. 3 courses + drinks came to about A$15/head. More

We went to Svejk twice. There are a few of these restaurants in Prague, as it's a chain, but one was just around the corner from the Hotel Caesar's Palace where we were staying. On the night of our arrival we stayed at the hotel a bit longer than we had intended before going out for a meal and we... More

The food served at Svejk was superbly made! My sister ate pasta with cheese and I ate a schnitzel and we both were blown away! So wonderful food for almost no money at all! More

I sought out this restaurant because it is one of the few that advertises gluten free food and is noted on the Czech Coeliac web site. It is one of the many Svejk themed franchised restaurants in Prague and wider bohemia. I suspect the gluten free aspect is necessary to give it an edge over some of the others in... More

We found this restaurant on our trip last year. Unbeatable value for money, fabulous food and generous hospitality. You will find it near to U Fluku, which is good fun for a drink and a bit of a laugh, but DONT be taken in to order food as it is mediocre and overpiced. Have you fun here and then eat... More

We visited this restaurant because a friend of mine is on gluten-free diet and this restaurant offers gluten-free meals. When we came, we were pleasantly surprised that they have a whole separate gluten-free menu for customers on a diet that has almost the same meals as the normal menu. They have all the Czech specialities in gluten-free version (goulash, all... More

I am a Prague resident (born in Prague) and I was amazed to find such a friendly, real Czech restaurant at affordable prices near the tourist centre. Besides, this is one of the few gluten-free restaurants with a full Czech menu. The staff were friendly (also unusual in Prague) and very helpful. We were even given drinks on the house!... More
