‘One of the top three restaurants in Poland’, claims one reader, and we’re not arguing. What was once a municipal power plant has been given a reviving shot, and that’s down to a fabulous menu created by Tomasz Kortus and Artur Wencel. Using the latest molecular techniques in food science choices here vary with the season, though the truth is there’s simply no such thing as a bad meal here. Excellent, excellent, excellent, and that’s each and every time. And with summer approaching why not dine on the rooftop terrace, home to knock-dead views of Gdańsk’s steepled skyline. If the weather isn’t co-operating, head indoors to a breathtaking interior of red brick walls and theatrical murals.

Absolutly amazing to have a dinner at this restaurant which is in some way duplicating Manhattan's David Bouley's French country dinning experience( www.davidbouley.com ). Julia Child will be proud to taste deboned duck slowly cooked (for 44 hours) which is soft like a butter. This is the first restaurant in Tri-City: Gdansk-Sopot-Gdynia that Zagat foodies should put on their list. Great Martinis, satisfactory wine list and properly served cognac. If this is one of three top restaurants in Poland, where are the other two, I'd like to know? Took a trip from New York for just two days and five of us went for three course dinner on terrace August 7, 2010. Cost with cocktails, couple of bottles of french burgundies, deserts, ports, cognacs: USD65/per person. Very reasonable and two enthusiastic thumbs up for two and half hour extraordinary service!
Absolutely stunning. Have eaten here twice: not a single dish could have been improved on. Superb starters followed by even better main courses and finished with sublime desserts, all with flawless service. And all at a price noticeably lower than the other top restaurants in town. The bad things? Well, once the music was slightly loud but only for a couple of minutes until somebody adjusted the volume. And the butter was hard one time. That's it, no matter how hard I try to pick holes. In short: this is easily the best restaurant in Gdansk and one of the best in the country.
