Bright, contemporary and sociable, this lively Mediterranean-leaning bistro and tapas bar is the passion project of young head chef Ada Wójcikowska, who has quickly drawn the notice and praise of not just local diners, but gastronomy tastemakers like Gault & Millau and Michelin. At the same time, Vamos is careful to stake out a position in contrast to typical Michelin dining, describing itself online as 'loud, not very fancy, and unpretentious,' and plainly telling diners 'don't expect too much.' Drawing inspiration from her travels to Italy, Spain and Greece, Wójcikowska crafts a frequently changing menu of small and medium hot plates designed for couples or groups to share, with cold tapas and pintxos displayed in plain sight behind the deli case upon entry. Expect rich dishes that balance simplicity and creativity, from house-baked focaccia to modern takes on Mediterranean classics, all paired with a carefully curated selection of wines and cocktails. With a bright, airy interior, and coveted sidewalk seating, Vamos brings a splash of energy and colour to Podgórze, making it the ideal spot for relaxed, sociable dining with friends or a partner.
