Had an amazing steak—cooked to perfection and full of flavor. Only downside: the tables are a bit too close, which made it feel a little cramped. Still worth it for the food!

The best restaurant in Brno? Element. Every time we are in Brno, we go here. And not just once ;)

We went there for our anniversary, and it was a wonderful experience. We ordered the cheese selection for starters, and I highly recommend it. Both the main dish and dessert were not only delicious but also creatively presented, with chef’s touches that made it an incredible experience. My partner ordered wine, and I had cocktails — I can’t even say which I would recommend more! We spent around 100 euros, and it was totally worth it!
