RESTAURACJA FORUM KULINARNE

Profanation of hospitality, insult to guests, and parody of cuisine. Sadly, my visit to Forum Kulinarne was one of the most disappointing dining experiences I’ve had. I visited with a friend a year ago, and although I hesitated to publish this, I feel the owners must read it as honest advice. The first impression was good: the place looks nice, service seemed friendly, and the amuse-bouche (a mushroom soup) was decent. Unfortunately, that was also the last positive moment. From then on, the menu and wine pairing were a sequence of mistakes. The courses lacked logic: mushroom soup, tartare, another soup, then fish, rabbit, risotto, dessert. A proper tasting menu should flow from light to heavy, simple to complex. Creativity is welcome, but not at the cost of basic structure. The wine pairing was appalling. Instead of thoughtful bottles with clear origin and terroir, we were served cheap supermarket-style wines described vaguely as “Chardonnay from France” or “Pinot Grigio from Italy.” No appellation, no region, no quality. Several glasses had to be returned. Only after insisting did the waitress finally serve drinkable wines — proving it was possible all along. Why mislead guests with poor wines until they complain? The food itself was equally problematic. The ostrich tartare was bland. Beef bouillon — wrongly placed in the sequence — was tragic, and absurdly paired with a feather-light Pinot Grigio. The fish was decent but overplated and average in taste. Rabbit was dry and unpleasant. Risotto tasted old, bland, and technically flawed. Desserts were excessively sweet and artificial. In every case, the plating promised more than the palate delivered. Service was kind but untrained. The waitress tried her best, but she was clearly left without knowledge or preparation. She carried the weight of management’s negligence, forced to justify cheap wine choices with “now it is popular to pair meat with white.” It is not her fault. Staff must be trained, otherwise they cannot provide the class and professionalism expected at this level. The greatest disappointment was at the end: despite returning dishes and most wines, we were presented with the full bill, without a gesture of apology or compensation. Only the poor waitress expressed sympathy. For a restaurant charging prices comparable to Michelin-starred menus in Spain, this is unacceptable. This review is not written in anger but in care. The potential is there: the idea, the ambition, even the location. But potential means nothing without basics — discipline, training, quality, and respect for guests. Hospitality is not decoration or French words sprinkled on the menu. It is refinement and consistency from start to finish. My advice: make it good first. Then refine. Then innovate. Only then aim for excellence. Without being good, you will only impress those dazzled by appearances. Guests who truly value food and wine will leave disappointed. I sincerely hope the owners take this feedback seriously, train their staff, rethink the wine program, and simplify the menu to focus on quality. I will return one day to see if things have improved — because I still believe this place could become what it wants to be. Until then, I can only say this experience was a lesson in how not to run fine dining.

We have visited this restaurant for Restaurant Week, and were satisfied with the food and the service they have provided 👌🏼the waiter was very knowledgeable and was explaining every dish, that was served, my favorite was definitely chili sin carne, the desert was delicate and not very sweet - the best way to finish such a good dinner 🍽️ I’ll come back to try the dishes from menu 🙌🏽

Situated perfectly in the heart of Wrocław, we had a wonderful experience dining here. Firstly, the atmosphere was great, we immediately felt welcome the moment we walked through the door. Secondly, although it was busy the service we received was first class. The food was beautiful to look at and even better to taste, a truly unforgettable experience. The cost of the meal was surprisingly low - great value for money! Fantastic presentation and true dedication from the staff makes this a 5 star dining sensation!

A lovely restaurant, very nice food, reasonably priced, and all within a nice relaxed atmosphere. We find ourselves returning to this restaurant a lot due to their nice seasonal menu's that keep the menu fresh and exciting. This restaurant also takes part in restaurant week, where they have often surprised us with the quality of the food on offer. Highly recommend checking it out if you can!
