Restauracja HEKTOR1970 — Restaurant in Warsaw

The restaurant was suggested by a Polish friend of mine. Good first impression, cosy, calm interior and close to the cultural palace. The food was decent, but unfortunately the service didn't convince us. We ordered two traditional soups and a portion of pierogi to share, but we only got one soup. When I pointed this out to the waitress, she seemed a bit offended and quickly turned away but brought us the other soup anyway. Later, we also noticed that we were served three lavender cocktails instead of lavender lemonades, which were of course more expensive. However, we didn't say anything about it. It was strange that there were such misunderstandings, because the waitress spoke English and seemed to understand us well. Although we were almost alone in the room and had already finished eating since 20 minutes, we were not asked if we would like a coffee or dessert. We then decided to...

After reaching Warsaw, we were pretty hungry, and after searching for nearby places to eat which did not have cramped sitting arrangements, we found Hektor. The ambience looked nice. Unfortunately one of the waitresses could not speak English at all, and we had difficulties in communicating. But there was another waitress who could. We wanted to eat the classic Polish dish, Zurek, but she said that they had run out of bread. We ended up ordering the same dish, which looked like Schnitzel. The food was quite tasty, and so was the beer. The prices were a bit on the higher side compared to that in Poland. We were expecting a vodka shot as a complementary since we had heard so much about Polish Vodka. In the end, I would recommend...
