I always have the weinerschnitzel. The taste/seasoning is great, although the meat was a bit overcooked on this occasion. The dumplings, gravy and sauerkraut were excellent. The kolacky is freshly made and an ideal finish to dinner. The service was excellent and the prices reasonable. The decor is what you would expect from a Czech restaurant catering to an older clientele wishing an environment reflection the "old world". One of the best ethnic restaurants in the Chicago area.

Dear Managment please take our experience into consideration and make some changes. Our visit today was really not how it was before. You will remember places on how they made you feel and AFTER VISITING YOUR RESTAURANT TODAY WE FELT UNWANTED, ASHAMED AND UNCOMFORTABLE.We came to celebrate birthday party. Food was okey but not as it was before. However, we could have closed our eyes on food, if the stuff would not be absolutely disrespectfull and made us feel unwanted. The story is - they had a life music and only a few people siting on the side tables in the main hall. Our company of 15 people of married couples and couples with childern came out to dance. But there was not much space and we moved empty table maybe one meter aside and were keep dancing. In a minute security man came and without saying anything STARTED PUSHING TABLE BACK ON US! We asked our waiter but he backed up security man and said that tables are not allowed to be moved (the HALL IS EMPTY, just a few people on the side tables and at the bar!). SINGER STOPED SINGING and we were standing there shocked!!! We asked for manager, nobody came out...PLEASE UNDERSTAND, WE DID NOT MAKE ANYBODY UNCOMFORTABLE, even a few other people stand up and start dancing with us. We just wanted to celebrate Birthday, dance and had a good food. Unfortunately, we GOT NOTHING out of this list. If you want to came to this place, please be advised that stuff's attitude can ruin your evening if they will not change.We are terribly sorry for your last night's experience with us. We wish you a happy birthday and many years to come! Regarding your dancing experience:- unfortunately, at this point in time, we are not allowed by the laws of Downers Grove to change the layout of our dining room and we can not accommodate the room for dancing, regardless of where is it a busy night or an empty house. We do have a request pending in the CIty which needs to be approved by the mayor that will allow us to accommodate the place for dancing in the near future. - however, we are going to take action regarding our staff unresponsiveness!- we are going to take action regarding better communication between our security and our customers! Once again we apologize for our service last night and we hope to see you again when we will have availability to accommodate a dancing guest in a large dance floor.

I get back to Lisle frequently and head here for a good meal without stress. The menu is easy to read and the entrees provide good variety. The sides are tasty and serve well to complement the main course. I never quite leave enough for dessert, but a great beer always slakes my appettite.
