Bistro Słowacki — Restaurant in Gdansk

I eat here the lunch menu on daily basis (except weekends) for a few months already. My company is located close and it covers half the price of the menu, so I pay 9zl instead of 18,90zl, although I understand that the restaurant gets the full price so I get the exact same food and service. Please notice that my review refers exclusively to their lunch menu. The different dishes and the quality of the food and service are quite decent (definitely worth 9zl, not that sure about the 18,90), although with time perspective I've seen some changes for worse and some issues: -The servings are quite irregular: many times a group of people orders the same dish at the same time and sit together, and one person will get in their dish almost twice the food as the other one. Servings and portions are not consistent at all in size, and it feels like a lottery in which you might end your lunch feeling stuffed, or hungry. -No matter the soup of the day, all of them will have an incredible overdose of pepper. Some days is less noticeable than others, but still you'll almost always end your soup with burning feel in your mouth. -Although the lunch menu variety is nice, around may or june this year they decided to keep the weekly menu for the whole month. Prior to that, every week you would have new options, but now the fixed week menu (one soup and one choice between veg and non-veg main course each day of the week) repeats every week for the whole month. Variety has definitely declined. -Although I understand that the logistics of managing dozens or hundreds of people going for the lunch menu every day must be complicated, in a couple of occasions I got really undercooked food. Once the chicken was clearly undercooked, and another time the rice felt directly raw. I took each time as exceptional and didn't complain, so I assume my part of fault here and I believe that I would have received a good replacement dish had I asked for it, but I think it's still fair to...

Nowhere it says that this is not a cafe for everyone but for groups only. I’m shocked that a place called “bistro” has some special rules about serving individual guests and does not even care enough to put these rules about their place on display so that people would know the principles of their work! On top of this, the person explaining this was rude and not pleasant when she heard we spoke English, not Polish. This is simply disappointing, spoiled experience and impressions from the...

Cosy indoor design, delicious food - we had top class penne with grilled veggies, grilled chicken breast, Cesar salad that is definitely big enough to be a main, yummy children’s fish and nuggets with chips, yet the best meal where the ribs and the liver entree! One star taken for not having a kids...
