Generally a great fan of San Carlo , usually at their Dittrichova street restaurant, unfortunately it wasn't possible to reserve a table on this occasion, so decided to head up the hill to Vinohrady, despite from own experience not having the best of luck there, but we do love the pizza . Service was extremely slow , we'd been seated for 15 minutes before our drinks order was taken, and another 15 before they arrived to the table. Food orders were taken , food arrived for some of us , mine arrived without ingredients id asked for , sent back , out it came with the correct order, but by then the pizza was luke warm , despite the wait , some of my fellow diners orders still had not arrived by the time I'd finished, the waitress , stayed away , meaning that for the 90 minutes we were there , we were sat without drinks for half of it, is it so difficult to pop back and ask.if everything is OK?

Either fire this woman, or retrain her. I should not be the victim of attempted humiliation because I decided not to tip.
Edit: I reached out via email to try and get some resolution to this incident, and after several weeks, recieved no reply. Do not be fooled into thinking this company cares about customers. They have been added to my...
Read moreWe loved our dinner there! The ambiance of the restaurant was both inviting and sophisticated. Soft lighting, elegant decor, and comfortable seating created a cozy yet upscale atmosphere. The background music was pleasant and at the perfect volume, allowing for easy conversation without the need to raise our voice. The service was extremely attentive and I will definitely recommend it to people. One standout aspect of the evening was the chef’s attention to detail. Each dish was beautifully presented and tasted as good as it looked. We started with a prosciutto pizza with a fresh burrata landed in the center with fresh cherry tomatoes which was a perfect start after we get The clams pasta with citrus tones of freshness and the Prawns with a tomatoes sauce perfectly cook in Additionally the house tiramisu was a perfect ending to a fantastic...
