Cucina — Restaurant in okres Nymburk

Cucina or "Kitchen" this restaurant offers a dinner experience that’s both rustic and refined, perfect for a special night out. We began with the game tartare, which set a remarkable tone. The tartare was earthy and complex, with tender cuts of wild game balanced by an artful combination of herbs and subtle spices. The chef clearly has a knack for allowing the game’s natural flavors to shine, making it a perfect opening dish.

Next, the carpaccio arrived—a presentation that was just as stunning as it was flavorful. The thinly sliced meat practically melted in our mouths, with a delicate hint of parmesan foam and a drizzle of olive oil elevating each bite. The flavors were well-rounded, and the portion was just right, leaving us ready for the main course.

The wood-fired pizza, main dish, was a delightful surprise. The crust was perfectly crisp on the outside, with just enough chewiness on the inside, and topped with a blend of cheese that oozed creamy goodness. Each bite revealed more flavors, from the prosciutto crudo to the rich tomato sauce, creating a comforting, yet gourmet, experience.

Finally, the dessert exceeded expectations. It was indulgent without being overly sweet—blackcurrant creation with hints of vanilla cream. The dessert was the ideal conclusion to a carefully curated meal, satisfying our sweet tooth while allowing the lingering flavors of the entire meal to settle.

In summary, the restaurant’s combination of quality ingredients, skilled preparation, and inviting atmosphere created a memorable dining experience that we’re...

My friend and I wanted to have a pleasant Sunday afternoon. The reservation was made on Sunday. I admit that the first impression was pleasant. We were greeted and waited about 8 minutes to be seated. I don't know what took so long. The restaurant was half-empty, they seated us at a large table - our table was not ready for dining - the tablecloth was uncut, cutlery was missing, the table was dirty. Two of us were seated at a table for six. It doesn't matter. We ordered: SALAD WITH SHRIMPS - the taste of garlic was too strong, which no one had warned us about before. TAGLIATELLE AGLIO E OLIO WITH SHRIMPS, "al dente" too much, too much white wine - sour taste, which was not very tasty. The overall impression was confused, good references on the Internet - popular restaurant - nice environment and good atmosphere - very very average food, I refused the dessert after a...

I used to like going to Mamma Cucina, but the last visit really disappointed me. We came on Saturday in a larger group, but everything was arranged, booked and reported in advance, they narrowed down our choice of dishes to four so that they could "prepare and everything went quickly and to our satisfaction". After arriving at 8 pm, we didn't get our first glass of wine until 45 minutes later and our meal - pasta - until 10:15 pm. Some of us didn't even eat... I don't understand where the mistake was, but this was really too much. Moreover, in a restaurant where they rely on perfect service and the cheapest dishes cost around 500 CZK. I give one star for the waiters' effort to apologize afterwards and at least give some discount, even though the bitter aftertaste from the...
