Pomelo Bistro — Restaurant in Gdansk

I'm giving one star plus because service was good and location was amazing but all the rest was pretty terrible. We ordered fish and it was pure luck that we didn't get any poisoning or similar, fish was done very bad, let's disregard the amount of meat that we've got and amount of bones that we also got, the taste was blunt and the only strong tasteful part was that i could taste the seawater (this is not me tasting solt or similar, i grow up near sea, so i very well know how seawater tastes) , so i guess that preparation was done in rush (ah, also we were waiting for our order more than 30m, and all tables around us were waiting very long) and not properly . Also if nothing much for the time we were waiting the kitchen (or the cook) could do a file's and try properly clean the fish and bones (knowing that especially that type of fish has a ton of bones) So on the end we ended up hungry, as we were when we choose this restaurant (because it was really high rated in reviews, quite surprising) and also paying the bill which was quite expensive for mediocre to poor to terrible (probably terrible is best description). Btw we would pay even double if that fish was prepared as it should and we would exit that restaurant with good taste in our mouth, but sadly it was quite opposite 😔. So overall i would give 0 stars but because at least service was somewhat goodish (present and quick) they have two stars. This restaurant is just good for having a...

Nestled in a haven of delightful ambiance, this charming restaurant stands out for its inviting atmosphere and top-notch service. The waitstaff, proficient in English, not only added to the warmth of the place but also exhibited a remarkable level of friendliness and attentiveness throughout our dining experience.

The culinary voyage was a symphony of flavors, with standout dishes including the mouthwatering Shakshouka and the remarkably tasty Lanbeh Cheese (Vegan). The Shakshouka was a delightful medley of flavors, leaving a lasting impression, while the Lanbeh Cheese (Vegan) showcased the chef's mastery in creating plant-based delights.

Our gastronomic journey began with a velvety cappuccino, setting the tone for the culinary delights that followed. To conclude, we indulged in a classic lemonade with a refreshing hint of mint, perfectly complemented by a soothing ginger lemon and honey tea. Each sip and bite was a testament to the kitchen's prowess in delivering a memorable dining experience.

In summary, this restaurant is a gem, seamlessly blending a lovely atmosphere, impeccable service, and a culinary journey that transcends the ordinary. From start to finish, every aspect of our visit was marked by excellence, making it a dining destination...

We went during the noon rush on a Saturday so I understand and have empathy for the workers but even that has limits when you're really hungry.

It took a long time to get our food. After about 40 minutes I really started counting every second. I also noticed every other table receiving a basket of bread before their dishes came out. I didn't remember seeing that on the menu but I definitely would have ordered one if I would have known we'd have to wait so long. Was the bread supposed to be complimentary? Either way, it sucks that we didn't get any. We tried to ask our server but could never get their attention.

After waiting for a little over an hour our food finally came. I had ordered the "Breakfast Burger" and thanks to my absolutely ravenous hunger, I managed to choke down a little less than half of it before I had to stop. Perhaps it was my own fault? What did I expect when I ordered DEEP FRIED MORTADELLA? It wasn't good and definitely not worth the wait.

Maybe I should have ordered something else? Maybe I should have come at a different time? Maybe we'll never know the answers to these questions. What we do know is one thing: The decor was nice. I liked their aprons, too. Where...
