Profile

While the Bohemian Hall & Beer Garden has become a bona fide tourist attraction, Koliba feels like the insular refuge of a Czech-expat crowd, elbow-to-elbow at the bar. Enormous planks of chicken schnitzel, goulash served with sliced-bread "dumplings," spaetzle in a tangy sheep's-milk sauce—it's not the lightest cuisine. Which is where the excellent palate-cleansing pilsner comes in. — Rob Patronite and Robin Raisfeld

Recommended Dishes

Chicken schnitzel, $13.75; spaetzel with sheep cheese, $14.50; beef goulash, $13.75

We've all heard about the rivalry between Golden Prague and Koliba, but I have to give the edge to Koliba. If you want heavy, sauce laden comfort food with great beer, come to Koliba. Highly recommended.
