The Monastery Restaurant at the Augustine Hotel

Located in the heart of Prague’s Lesser Town is the Monastery Restaurant, situated in the world-renowned Augustine Hotel. Monastery Restaurant has recently been awarded third top restaurant by Euro’s Top 50 restaurants in Prague 2009. The spacious and elegant restaurant is housed in a glass covered courtyard and is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner providing a light and airy space for breakfast and lunch and a romantic quiet location for a gourmet dinner. In the warmer months al fresco dining is of course, a must in the large courtyard where you can dine under the stars! As an extra-added plus the landscape architecture of the restaurant includes ancient trees that have been added for greenery and intrigue. The Monastery Restaurant offers a modern European Brasserie style menu that is sure to please even the most jaded culinary guest. With special attention to detail and use of only fresh seasonal quality ingredients, The Monastery Restaurant will leave you longing for another fine dining experience. The menu is complimented by a fine international wine list offering wines from the Old and the New World. We recommend from the dinner menu the Minted Pea Soup with Prague Ham, The Violet Artichokes with Tomatoes and Black Olives or the Beetroot and Goat Cheese Salad as a starter and the Risotto with Saffron and Asparagus from the Pasta and Risotto menu. From a main course we recommend the Sirloin Steak, the Šumava Lamb Shank with Spinach and Polenta, The Roasted Octopus with Chorizo and Red Peppers and the Baked Scallops with Garlic and Parsley Butter. For a sweet finish we suggest the Cheesecake with Black Currant Sauce or the Moravian Apricot Cake with Crumble and Vanilla Sauce. Make sure to try the St. Thomas beer at the Monastery Restaurant, the Augustine’s own brew based on an ancient recipe!
