Albertina Restaurant & Wine

Fantastic food flavor and casual atmosphere - a true gem! Most Michelin restaurants focus too much on ambiance over taste, but Albertina is an exception. The lobster was superb, and their 30-year-old STARKA whisky impressed even my Scottish friends.

No stuffy dress code or drawn-out tasting menus here. Just an excellent, relaxed dining experience with a great drinks selection. An ideal spot for a casual business dinner.

All my colleagues and friends thoroughly enjoyed our evening at Albertina. We'll definitely be back for more outstanding food and drinks in this unstuffy yet upscale setting. Highly recommended!

Amazing fine dining restaurant in Krakow! One of the best I had (not only in Krk). We visited it with my husband, had a 7- course tasting with wine pairing. The food was outstanding and the service excellent! Pairing recommended by Kajetan was delicious and made the meal even more special. I recommend this place for a date or some couple celebration. Definately will visit again.

Fantastic find, buried into Krakow's old town, it's a hidden gem for seafood specialties.
Very kind and accommodating staff, great bread, reasonable prices, great lobster and wine selection.
Service was definitly a highlight, dishes are served all at the same time with a good description. Only let down was the beef tenderloin that tasted a little too gamey.

Otherwise thumbs uo

Albertina in Krakow is a culinary gem that left a lasting impression on my taste buds. From the moment we walked in, the restaurant exuded warmth and sophistication, and it was a delightful surprise to secure a table without a reservation. The impeccable service throughout the evening added to the overall charm of the dining experience.

For appetizers, the DEER TENDERLOIN TARTARE stole the spotlight with its harmonious blend of flavors. The rich notes of black truffle danced alongside the velvety veal marrow, while the egg yolk provided a luscious creaminess. The mustard seeds added a delightful pop of texture, making every bite a symphony of taste.

Equally memorable were the DUMPLINGS WITH FOIE GRAS AND PRAWN. The tender dumplings were a canvas for the luxurious combination of foie gras and succulent prawn. The mint-tarragon sauce imparted a refreshing herbal note, beautifully complementing the sweetness of sugar snap peas.

Moving on to the main courses, the STURGEON FILLET showcased the delicate flavors of the fish, masterfully paired with pickled leek, sorrel, and watercress. This dish was a delightful balance of lightness and depth, leaving a delightful lingering taste.

The SEA BREAM BAKED IN SALT was a true showstopper, arriving at the table in a spectacle of flavor and presentation. Carved from salt and cleaned before me, the fish was beautifully seasoned and cooked to perfection. The accompaniments of cauliflower, truffle, mushrooms, and fennel added layers of complexity, making it a dish that will remain etched in my memory.

Throughout the meal, the sommelier's expertise in pairing Polish and French wines with each course elevated the dining experience to new heights, further enhancing the flavors of the dishes.

To end the gastronomic journey, the PINE MOUSSE with Parsley brûlée and Almonds was an inventive and delightful dessert. The mousse was exquisitely light and airy, while the parsley brûlée added a surprising twist, beautifully offsetting the sweetness. Paired with a Polish ice wine, it was a memorable finale that left me wanting more.

In conclusion, Albertina delivers an extraordinary dining experience that combines artistry, creativity, and skill. Each dish reflects a meticulous attention to detail, and the restaurant's ability to seamlessly blend Polish and French influences is a testament to their culinary prowess. If you seek a dining adventure that tantalizes the senses and leaves you with cherished memories, Albertina is the place to indulge.

I had dinner at this restaurant. To be honest, I hadn't expected it to be a good restaurant until starting the course. However, dinner in the restaurant was one of my best Kraków memories now. Because all the dishes were very delicious and complicated construction's tastes. Especially, I was attracted to dessert. I'd never eaten such one before; really delicate.

Outstanding Michelin Star worthy restaurant with amazing food and wines along with outstanding noninvasive but extremely informative male waitstaff. Simply but beautifully decorated. Wine pairing suited the tasting menu. Also, although usually not done, a modified menu for a non-oyster eating guest of ours was prepared. Reservations essential.

The food was so well prepared, tasty and exceptional if you need a lively meal this place is well worth a visit. I love seafood and the selection was wonderful. Excellent wine pairing, some really good Polish wine options!

Fantastic service throughout the night! Food was very tasty and the wines paired quite well.

Exceptional. Food exquisite - wonderfully balanced and made more special by the excellent wine pairings. Again, exceptional service by both our waiter and sommelier. Couldn't have had a more wonderful meal
...

Business dinner for 5. We all loved the food - not only how deliciously it tasted, but also how beautiful it was! The wine pairing is really good too. The waiters are knowledgeable and provide excellent high-level service. Overall an amazing top notch dinner experience in Krakow, for a classy, elegant evening. Pricing is aligned with the value: we paid 1500 for starter-mai-desert for 5 with wine pairing. However bear in mind the lobster menu is more expensive.

Albertina is probably one of three best fine dining restaurants in Krakow. We've visited for the first time and we were not disappointed.
Food was very tasty, high quality, interesting mix of ingredients. Presentation was spotless. Service wasn't faultless, but it was very minor issue. Prices were very reasonable and cheap compared to average London restaurant. We didn't require sommelier assistance, however, he was serving nearby tables and I could see he's very knowledgeable and if needed his help is definitely highly recommended.

Wonderful experience, fine dinning with my wife and we were really satisfied.
Good service, Excellent food. The waiter also lead us to the wine cellar of the restaurant to have wine tasting and matching. They really deserve this good reputation.

The chef specializes in seafood and lobster dishes.
Nice place, good ambiance, and wonderful service. Great fine dining experience.
The deer tenderloin tartar is a must try!!

All I can say is wow. Exceptional service and the food was amazing. I recommend the Goose leg and the beetroot soup with dumplings.

Food in here is fresh, they have a lot of options in their menu (at least five dishes in each course), I have ordered a trout for starter and it was excellent and well plated but it was a bit oilly. For first course, it was a mushroom soup sided with little cabbages without cream and it was a bit salty but still not bad. Main course I tried a lobster rissoto and it was reallt tasty but the rissoto is strong in cheese flavor without a strong lobster flavor and i found a small shell piece in the rissoto, the lobster is freshly prepared and the claw is intact when served. Another dish is deer tenderloin which was real special for asians and the texture of the deer is not too chewy, the sauce is a bit salty overall. lThe waiters in here are classy and dressed very formal and gent, they will tell you about the ingredients in your plate, some history and origins. The environment here is relaxing and jazz music is in their song lists.

Three chocolate dessert, black angus steak and duck were absolutely amazing. This is a fine dining place, three courses cost around 60e but are worth it. Kitchen sent nice small bites between the courses.

Nice, elegant and warm atmosphere, haute cuisine, a very good attentive service and wine suggestions for every meal. We enjoyed it very much.

A great dining experience. Seriously well prepared cuisine with professional service in a beautiful setting. This is a very special place to enjoy a celebratory dinner.

Fantastic, Michelin worthy food. Excellent service. We had foie gras, lobster ravioli, duck and lamb, as well as a bottle of Riesling and paid about 650zl. So not cheap, but worth it.

We had an astonishing dining experience at Albertina. Everything was perfect: service, starters, main dishes, and desserts! Prices are quite high compared to other restaurants in Krakow, but quality definitely makes up for this.
I highly recommend the T-bone steak.
