DOCK19 by Mateusz Gessler — Restaurant in Warsaw

This restaurant offers a true hit and miss experience therefore don’t expect much as then they most likely will fail to deliver. First time we visited after opening staff and service were great however, as we had a great experience the first time we decided a second visit would be in order. First of all if you book a table don’t turn up on time as it most likely won’t be ready, the staff are nice only as long as everything is going well. After being shown our table (late) we ordered the food soon after. At no point did the waiter say the wait would be long which is the first mistake. For a starter we ordered the bread which we were told would take 10 minutes, it took well over 30 minutes, once the long awaited bread arrived (which we had to remind the waiter we ordered and were informed they are busy therefore he can’t do anything about it). We were waiting for the mains for well over and 1 hour and 15 minutes at which point we decided to leave as when we asked the waiter what was going on with our order he was extremely rude and instead of being apologetic he was very keen to highlight its not his fault and that we should be more patient as since the order was sent only 30 minutes ago which makes no sense whatsoever as we were at the table for more than an hour at this point. If you enjoy being poorly treated and don’t enjoy a consistent experience then this is the...

Nice place but the food nothing special!2 starters:scallops with saffron sauce:terrible sauce,too much cream and saffron! Beef tartare nothing special Two main courses:orange duck:the sauce was not how should be in a restaurant like this!seems made by canned orange juice!who knows how should be orange sauce can understand me! Veal cutlet with morel sauce:I found only 3 very small pieces of morels,nothing,and again the sauce was tasting absolutely nothing and without salt,but the quality of the meat was very good! Puré was made by water and not milk and butter! In a restaurant like this cook cannot do good sauces??? Bread was very good and you pay for it! We order chocolat foundant with ice cream but arrive with a plum mousse ,terrible,and and it didn't match at all with chocolate! The waiter at the begin was not able to explain some plate but I average was good service! Nothing special to say that I...

The decoration of the place is very nice, combining old factory remains with modern elements. The menu is Polish, slightly revisited, and dishes are excellent in contrast with the wine card, limited in choice and a bit low range and overpriced. The young waitresses were doing their best, but looked bored and lacking a bit of job training. During our whole lunch, three guys acting like they were the bosses of the restaurant were discussing loudly at the counter in the middle of the restaurant and staring at customers, when not hanging around with their phones, creating an rather unpleasant atmosphere. The amount of the bill was more Paris-like than Warsaw-like. It's OK with regards to the quality of the food, but one goes to such a place also for a pleasant atmosphere and this is what appears to be...
