"Pretty reasonable vegie fair"   My Rating
2 renap	Posted on: Friday, July 03, 2009
	Review: Maitrea is quite similar to Lehka Hlava ("Clear Head"), only the food I got didn't seem quite as good - though it's probably about a year since I went to LH. My burrito was okay - a so-so never-seen-chilli-its-life bean mixture, some salsa, nice presentation ... balanced against a tiny portion of guac. that had been sitting around a little too long, and rice that was so dry the I actually wondered if part of it had been cooked at all! The fennel salad was pretty good and quite unusual. My friend had something that seemed to an attempt at fusion cooking - stir-fried veg on a bed of mashed potato with a creamy sauce and balsamic reduction deco! Interesting ... Great fresh juices, and the (alcohol free) prune beer (!) got the thumbs up from both my Czech friend and I. The staff were pretty good - very baby-friendly, polite and helpful. Non-smoking - a real treat in the centre of Prague. Relatively cool decor - lots of wood without that awful "leftover hippy" look you see so often in Prague, some funky lampshades, groovy tiling/polished concrete in the loos, etc.   Pros: reasonable selection of dishes * nice juices * friendly staff Cons: * *

"pretty good"   My Rating

	Review: They were out of the daily special at 105 Kc, so I had a black-bean burrito, salsa (really a puree), guacamole, some bland white rice and salad for 140 Kc. I wasn't fond of the hemp beer I tried. Calm décor, but thumping music, though low volume. Some vegan items available; otherwise lacto. Salads in Czech Republic, in my experience so far, are just lettuce and hothouse tomatoes and sometimes sliced cucumber. The burrito was very tasty.   Pros: * * Cons: * *

"Nice ambiance, poor food selection for vegans"   My Rating
2 thevegan	Posted on: Monday, May 25, 2009
	Review: The place was nice. I liked the style as I do Lehka Hlava. However, the food selection for vegans really sucked. There was one that they made special for us. It was good, but I cannot see myself visiting Maitrea again until they improve on the vegan selections.   Pros: Ambiance * Beer & wine were good * Location Cons: No vegan food * No vegan food * No vegan food

"Wonderful restaurant"   My Rating
2 Paulie1002 2	Posted on: Sunday, May 24, 2009
	Review: I come to Prague once a year and always have wonderful experiences in this veggie-friendly city. Stopped by here on the recommendation of the staff at Clear Head, with which it is affiliated, just 2 weeks after it had opened. Absolutely gorgeous decor and food. Hope no-one gives it a bad review based on prices. It's actually very reasonably priced for the high standard of food and surroundings. But this is not for anyone traveling on a tight budget. Easy to find, on a street just behind the big church, one block off the Old Town Square. Pea soup (fresh not split) was stunning as were the roasted onion pancakes. Hope to eat many more meals here on subsequent visits to Prague   Pros: Delicious, inventive food * Beautiful decor * Reasonable prices for gourmet restaurant Cons: Non * *

"Great new restaurant by the Clear Head owner!"   My Rating
304 gr8vegan	Posted on: Friday, May 22, 2009
	Review: Wow this place is nice inside! A real artist must have made all the furnishings. It is beautiful. We were referred here with about a dozen other people who didn't have a reservation over at Clear Head. Maitrea is set up to handle everyone, they have lots of seating and downstairs is a whole entire new bar & seating area. You won't have a problem just dropping in and eating. Right now is like a half menu, but you can get a vegan burrito & pasta dish. Def try the local hemp beer, its great!   Pros: beautiful * vegan pasta * no reservation needed thus far Cons: needs more vegan food * *
