Pimiento

Pimiento is the restaurant in Krakow when you are in for a great steak.
There are two restaurants in Krakow. One restaurant in Stolarska street just around the corner of the Rynek square and the other original and smaller one in Josefa street in Kazimierz. The restaurant in Stolarska street is the larger one with different areas and a great garden to have dinner during the summer.
Service is allways great and food is superb !, in my top 5 Krakow restaurants

Had dinner here. Great steakhouse. Massive choice in meats and sides. Perfectly cooked steaks the way you want it.

Not one for the vegetarians, this restaurant is all about beef!
It was expensive in comparison to other places we ate in Krakow but not overly excessive considering what they served up.
Starters tasted great and were just the right size. The mains were what stick in my memory though, I had the selection of all four cuts and 600g on the plate seemed a lot bigger than 600g on the menu did but it all tasted so good I managed to clean my plate.
All the meat was cooked to perfection, exactly as we had ordered it and each cut was tender, juicy and full of flavour. The presentation was great too.
Service was excellent and the décor was nicely themed to the menu.
Dessert menu only consists of 3 options. We opted to share a chocolate cake which was against my better judgement, I’m not a huge fan of any chocolate cake and I found this one a bit too rich, it looked fantastic though!

As a carnivore I can honestly say this place serves excellent steaks– actually cooked the way you order them and delicious! My side of sweet potatoes with chorizo was interesting as a side to a 250gr sirloin steak, and I would probably go for something lighter and greener next time. The mushroom sauce was good but a bit cool when it arrived– still I ate all of it of course!
Food arrived quickly and the wine did keep flowing (something I occasionally have mixed feelings about but anyway). The staff were very accommodating to the fact that last minute we decided to join some friends at a larger table and we moved around the furniture to do so. They also were very good at separating our bill quickly and with no hassle as my friend and I had to dash off sooner. Certainly worth the price (one should treat themselves to a good steak yes?) and remember to book in advance on a Friday or Saturday!

This was a wonderful restaurant I visited some time ago during a family trip to Krakow. The steak was delicious and they had a wonderful selection of wines. Our server was prompt and more friendly than the usual European server without being obnoxious. I would absolutely go here again, and I’d bring friends!

My mouth is watering just thinking about the times I have had steaks here cooked just the way I like it! The only let-​down was that one time the service was a tad slow when I went with two of my friends and all of us ordered medium or well done steaks which took them 90 minutes to prepare. Other times when I went with bigger crowds the food arrived much sooner.
With that said… the meat, the wine, the side dishes… All excellently made and well worth the wait and price– even on a student budget on those special days!

Excellent food (had the 300g rump steak), great service. Slightly more expensive by Kraków standards but well worth it
