If you’re taking a client to lunch in Prague, start with the time you have and where you both need to be afterwards. A tasting menu can be a good way to introduce someone to Czech cooking. A weekday lunch menu near the next meeting may fit the day better.
On 9 November 2026, the Michelin Guide listed 43 restaurants with Prague addresses, including five with one Michelin star and seven with a Bib Gourmand. Its Prague and surroundings search also includes two venues outside the city. The first section below covers the five Prague restaurants with a star. The second is a shortlist for lunch from the wider guide. Michelin Guide for Prague and surroundings · Michelin’s list of starred restaurants in Czechia
Prague’s five Michelin-starred restaurants
Field
One Michelin star · Lunch daily · Staré Město
Field serves a four-course lunch menu for CZK 1,950 per person, with drinks charged separately. Weekday lunch service runs from 11:00 to 14:30. It works for a client lunch when you want several courses and can leave some room in the calendar. If you have another meeting straight afterwards, ask the restaurant how long to allow.

U Milosrdných 12, Staré Město, Prague
Casa De Carli
One Michelin star · Weekday lunch · Staré Město
The family-run Italian restaurant offers à la carte dishes as well as a tasting menu. Michelin lists lunch from 11:00 to 15:00, Monday to Friday. À la carte makes it easier to agree on one or two courses when time is limited. For a small private meeting, ask about the lounge in the wine cellar and whether it is available at lunchtime.

Casa De Carli

La Degustation Bohême Bourgeoise
One Michelin star · Lunch daily · Staré Město
The kitchen takes familiar Czech flavours into a tasting menu. Lunch service runs from 11:30 to 15:00, with the last lunch reservation at 13:30. The published tasting menu is CZK 3,500 per person before drinks, and the restaurant lists a non-alcoholic pairing. We’d choose it when the meal is part of the visit and the guests have time to enjoy it. Tasting menu · Lunch reservations

How we’d choose at Kodo
If the main reason for lunch is the conversation, we’d stay close to the meetings and book somewhere with a regular lunch menu. We’d ask for a table away from the busiest part of the room. If we’re inviting a visitor to get to know Czech cooking and the afternoon is free, we’d make time for a tasting lunch at Field or La Degustation. For a conversation that needs privacy, we’d book the room itself in advance.
