A terrace spilling onto Žižkov Square is the summer argument for this sophisticated bistro inside a long-standing hotel in Tábor's medieval centre.

The kulajda mushroom soup has the kind of staying power that earns a Michelin Bib Gourmand. Old-world glamour, sensible prices.

Tables near the pass give a clear view into the kitchen, and the staff will talk you through the choices without making it a lecture.

A country restaurant in a quiet Prague suburb where the name translates to "grandma's garden," and the kitchen makes good on the promise. The terrace spills into an actual garden, the dining room leans into the country-house look without apology, and beef broth with liver dumplings arrives in a pot you serve yourself. The steak tartare is finished tableside. Traditional and regional Czech cooking, friendly service, and zero pretension about any of it.

A traditional Czech restaurant in a residential neighborhood where the walls are papered with the owner's actual family photos, which either sounds charming or alarming depending on your threshold for intimacy. It's the kind of unhurried, personal place that makes Prague's tourist-center dining feel like another city entirely. The kitchen runs classic and regional, and the Michelin Bib Gourmand suggests the cooking earns the detour uphill.

Tucked into a quiet side street in Prague's New Town, Vallmo is a cozy contemporary Czech restaurant where the dining room runs to pale wood and understated wall art, and the kitchen leans on local producers to reinterpret seasonal Czech cooking.
