7 Best Restaurants in Letna, Holešovice, and Troja, Prague

This fantastic destination restaurant, with thoughtful, delicate twists on modern Czech food in a shiny-steel-and-concrete industrial setting, is certainly the district's best and even holds its own against the rest of the city. Run by the former Michelin-starred chef at Alcron, in the center of town, the Eatery is a more informal but no less delicious venture, with all the extras you'd expect from an establishment of this quality, from a chef's table to delicious wines and an open kitchen.

This recently opened joint brings modern barbecue to the Czech capital, in a big way. The meats are glorious, the vibe is industrial-cool, and the welcome is friendly.

Located on what is among Prague's coolest streets, this hip little spot combines a retro aesthetic—black walls, a mix of chairs, and lots of plants—with tasty international food and unique touches. 

Just behind Letná Park, Curry Palace is a bit off the beaten path, but it's the place for Indian and Bangladeshi food. You'll find the usual mix of tandoori dishes and curries, and staff are happy to recommend more unique options. This makes a perfect lunch or dinner stop after visiting the National Technical Museum or the park itself.

A popular café-bistro-bar with a homey feel (per its name), the menu here changes daily, taking inspiration from a mix of the owners' grandmothers and U.K. superchef Gordon Ramsay. There's also a shop for fresh vegetables and pastries. The coffee is great and at night there are often DJs.  

The same talented team behind Lokál Dlouhááá and Café Savoy refurbished this long-standing Czech pub near Stromovka Park in 2013. Not only did they add a fresh coat of paint to the walls, but, true to form, they refreshed and reintroduced some traditional tavern classics alongside great beer. A solid choice if you are in the area.

Rub shoulders with locals at this pub that serves up fantastic, authentic local cuisine. Expect rib-sticking Czech favorites—there's a large selection of dumplings—that are perfect on cold days, and perfect cold draft beers. And because it isn't in the city center, the tourist kitsch element is absent---along with the inflated prices.
