Il Calzone — Restaurant in Krakow

We found this little gem after seeing it noted in a guide book on Crakow. It's a little hidden away but we'll worth seeking out . This was our first visit to a restaurant in Poland and we were not dissapointed . Although it is quite small it offers excellent cuisine. It has a general Italian theme but we were encouraged to try some local dishes which were of excellent quality and most enjoyable . Our waiter was wonderful and although perhaps we should learn more languages, he spoke really well in English. A few words in polish from me put a smile on his face at least I tried . Contrary to what a lot of people back home may think , we have found the locals to be more than obliging in everything they do and could not be more helpful . Back to the restaurant; there is an outside covered area which for those of us that unfortunately smoke is welcome in the autumn winter chill. The food was quickly prepared and nice and hot .

STAFF IS RUDE!!! THEY DISCRIMINATE PEOPLE BY NATIONALITY AND SAY THAT “THEY MAKE RULES HERE!” THEY DECIDED TO BE RUDE TO US BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT THAT WE ARE UKRAINIANS, WHAT IS THE HELL!? We came from Germany and paid for everything we ordered. We just wanted to pay and leave earlier because they ruined our evening! From the beginning we were badly served and waited too long.

Chicken is super dry. Even tiramisu was awful. Waiting time is around 40-60 mins. Chairs are not...

The food was amazing! Great and high quality ingredients, amazing serving, large plates containing a combinations of vegetables and fine meat. Interesting dishes, creative plating and we only tried a few things from the menu. But the service was below awful! The waiter, which wasn’t young at all, was below rude! acted impolitely and impatient, did some rude gestures every time he was asked about the menu. Added a tip on his own opinion without asking, and when we’ve noticed and commented on it, said some things in polish with an angry tone and added some unpleasant gestures. The gap between the experience of the food and the quality of the service was the highest we’ve ever experienced. We’ll recommend it if you wanna enjoy a great dinner, but someone needs to make some changes with the...
