Wierzbowa 15 cooks Polish-European fusion with Nordic accents in the cellars of Wrocław's Altus Palace. Two-star Spanish chef Juan Luis Fernández took over patronage in April 2025.
Must order: The chef's tasting, leaning on the marinated mackerel with dill granita and a seasonal trout course.
Tip: The wine list runs deep into Austrian Grüner and Czech orange. Ask the sommelier for a pairing flight.
Address: ul. Wierzbowa 15, 50-056 Wrocław
Acquario on the sixth floor of Hotel Monopol in Wrocław runs Italian-Mediterranean cooking on terrace tables looking over the skyline. Mariusz Kozak in the kitchen, Michelin Selected 2025.
Order: The crudo plate to start and whichever whole fish the kitchen has off the morning truck.
Tip: Lunch on the terrace is the cheaper way to see the room. Same kitchen, half the bill.
Lwia Brama² sits in a medieval cellar on Wrocław's Cathedral Island, the only restaurant inside Ostrów Tumski itself. Damian Bildź cooks modern Polish, Michelin Selected 2025.
Order: The venison pierogi starter and the chef's seasonal tasting menu.
Tip: Reserve the garden in summer for the cathedral view; the medieval cellar is the move from October.
The main funk-walled room at Między Mostami in Wrocław. Łukasz Budzik's modern Polish kitchen, riverside terrace, Michelin Selected 2025.
Order: The chef's selection of six small plates with the natural-wine pairing flight.
Tip: Walk-ups work at the bar on quieter weeknights. The room itself wants a week's notice for weekends.

Order: The five-course tasting menu, the cleanest read of what the kitchen is doing this season.
Tip: Ask if the kitchen will run the off-menu Thursday special when you book.
Most is the tasting-only sister room behind Łukasz Budzik's Między Mostami in Wrocław, an intimate space at the back of the building with low-intervention pairings.

Tip: Most opens Thursday to Saturday only. Book three weeks ahead for the 19:30 seating Thu-Fri (Sat runs to 23:00).
Grzegorz Firkowski's STÓŁ na Szwedzkiej in Wrocław is a culinary studio more than a restaurant: no fixed menu, the chef cooks what arrived that morning, often interactive.
Order: Whatever the chef plates for you. The format only works if you let him drive.
Tip: Tell the chef your protein preferences when booking. The day's plan is built around them.
