Despite the quality of the cooking, La Veranda remains somewhat overlooked by visitors (though popular with locals), making a visit to this stylish, softly lighted room feel like you've been let in on a wonderful secret. The food is top-notch, with seasonal specials and a not outrageously priced six-course tasting menu showcasing the restaurant's greatest hits, like an incredibly rich beef tartare with egg yolk and black truffle. The à la carte options are equally inventive and deliver on flavor, too, from beef steak, beluga lentils, and zucchini to rabbit leg confit. Wine pairings are available.
As you would expect, Josefov has some solid kosher options for Jewish travelers. Of these, Dinitz is probably the most welcoming to both Jews and non-Jews and is a relaxed, often buzzing spot for Middle Eastern–inspired food and good grilled meat.
A relative newcomer to Prague's fine-dining scene, Field has made a splash quickly, grabbing a Michelin star for its locally sourced, Scandi-style food. While its tasting menu is astronomically expensive, there are cheats: the shorter weekday lunch tasting menu is much more reasonable, at 950 Kč. The imaginative cooking is worth it if you are looking for a blow-out, though.
At last! A huge, hip, all-day dining space on the edge of Staré Mĕsto's Jewish quarter. From its neon sign and bare-brick walls alone, this spot is already streets ahead of most of the area's tourist traps. And the good news is the food and drink options deliver too, from brunches to fresh juices, hearty main courses to cocktails. There's an inventive lunch menu which changes weekly, often featuring modern takes on Czech classics alongside more global options like pastas, salads, and fish. Plus there's a kids' corner and a piano bar downstairs.
Staré Mĕsto can sometimes feel relentlessly "olde-worlde" Czech, and Belgian-styled bistro Les Moules represents part of the appeal of dining in Josefov instead, with a more international, modern vibe. There's a nice open terrace and a fine selection of mussels, as you'd expect from the name. If you're tired of Pilsner Urquell, too (sacrilegious as this may be), there's a variety of Belgian Trappist beers.
For travelers sick of heavy dumplings, rich fare, and dimly lit cellar pubs, Mistral is an oasis: light, bright, and modern, with a short international menu featuring fresh salads, soups, and pastas, with some Czech specials thrown in. Service is always friendly and somehow the place never seems to be too busy, despite its central location. There are fresh flowers on the tables every day and a kids' corner designed by the owners' daughter.
Whether Pepenero serves some of the best pizza in Prague is the source of constant debate among locals, but one thing is for sure: it has the city's best mozzarella. Tangy and creamy, the cheese is as authentic as can be. It tops the panoply of pizzas here, including pepperoni, mushroom, and red-pepper pies. For the carb-phobic, the mozzarella also appears in the Caprese and Vesuviana salads, both large enough for two, and several of the pasta dishes. The modern white interior bustles with Italians engaged in friendly banter with the staff—a sure sign of authenticity.
