Dom Polski

Dom Polski is a Polish restaurant at ul. Francuska 11 in Saska Kępa, a leafy residential district on Warsaw's right bank known for its interwar modernist villas and its cafés. The restaurant occupies a garden villa, and its setting makes it feel more like a private house than a city dining room. The cuisine is traditional Polish, with a focus on classic dishes cooked in a relaxed but formal style; no Michelin or celebrity-chef context is claimed. Signature dishes include roast duck, typically served with apples or a fruit sauce and sides such as dumplings or red cabbage; żurek, the sour rye soup served with sausage and egg; and pierogi, the filled dumplings that appear on most Polish menus. Other courses commonly include herring starters, cutlets and seasonal desserts. The dining room is calm and comfortable, with a garden that becomes a draw in warm months, and the atmosphere suits family meals, business lunches and special occasions. Dress is smart casual, and noise levels are moderate to low. The beverage list generally includes Polish beers, vodkas, wines and herbal liqueurs, which pair with the traditional menu. Reservations are recommended for dinner and weekends, since the villa has a limited number of tables and the garden is popular in summer. Prices are about 90-180 PLN per person, placing it in the mid-to-upper range for Warsaw. Hours are approximately 12:00-23:00 daily. Saska Kępa is reached by tram or bus across the Vistula, and ul. Francuska is a pleasant street to stroll before or after a meal, with cafés, small shops and the surviving villas of the district. Visitors interested in Warsaw beyond the Old Town often combine the meal with a walk along the nearby river and the National Stadium area.
