	+ ------ + ''2009-10-15 14:35:09'' [[nbsp]] As a long-time customer at Little Prague (since it opened), I have to say, I'm surprised by all the negativity here. I have always had good food (sometimes even great) and good service. The vegetarian entrees are hearty and satisfying. The poached salmon is very good (and I'm very picky about my poached salmon). The portion sizes are huge and I usually end up taking some home. The owner has always been polite to me and my dining companions. I am dismayed to hear about a possible roach problem but hopefully if it really is a problem, the health department will take care of it. Many many roaches do live outside in downtown Davis, especially in the ivy but that doesn't necessarily mean it's an indoor problem. --["Users/davispigeon"]

	+ ------ + ''2009-08-19 11:47:48'' [[nbsp]] I have to agree with the exemployee. I worked there for a few months a couple years ago and in my first week was accused of breaking the back door entrance (which I had never touched) and was promptly cursed out. A few minutes later once it was repaired he was laughing and jovial but unapologetic. I also worked a few opening shifts and can attest to the roach problem. When the lights are turned in the kitchen area you can literally see hundreds of roaches scurrying for the dark. The paychecks are kept in the kitchen area between the plates used for services. One day I went in during a lunch shift and grabbed the stack of checks wedged between the plates. The hidden roaches that were attached were thrown all over the place; the plates, the serving line, garnish bins and prep area. Within seconds they had scurried away. Unfortunately, I have personally served roaches to customers, once on the patio a roach in a coffee cup. The customer played it off as possibly a bug from the English Ivy that is all over the patio. Another time was for brunch. Juvenile roaches don't look like adult roaches so when the customer picked up his orange/fruit garnish and saw two little bugs he had rationalized it as something that could have been shipped in with the fruit. I told Vaclav this and it was my fault for serving the plate. Maybe I should have been touching every dish, stirring your goulash with my index finger or lifting your main dish to peek under. Oh yeah, if you get something to go, ask for the box and box it yourself. The shelf under the food window has a large gap in it and the wall between that shelf and the kitchen is INFESTED with roaches. Part of training is explaining not use that ledge if you can help it. It's darkened by the upper food window so the roaches are much more adventurous and determined to try your leftovers. We did use this ledge when busy, otherwise we'd box up on the bar counter. As for the bakery area, it is just as infested and the cakes, while being baked fresh are all from 50lb bags of mixes and 5 gallon jugs of frostings. Nothing from scratch, but the roaches in the room are what did it for me. I am surprised the former employee did not bring up tip pooling. This is where we all "shared" tables and left the tips in the register. It would take Vaclav a week to figure out what the total tips were and who deserved what amount. The surprising thing is no matter if you worked 3 shifts or 7 you pretty much made the same. And those that he liked got more. Nevermind the total never seemed to add up to what the actual tips were, and yes, that does include tipping out the bussers and cooks. + + I realize that many people have come to the defense of this place and dismissed these comments as disgruntled employees but I speak the truth. I wish I had a camera phone back then, maybe a youtube video would convince the hardcore among you of the voracity of our comments. And to those regulars that I liked and respected, I apologize from the bottom of heart for serving you what I did. I'll never understand why I didn't walk out during training. + + P.S. Vaclav's answer to the brunch roach fiasco was to buy a roach bomb from ACE and set it off in the kitchen that night. No proffesional service and no follow up. --["Users/jasonReynolds"]

- * A valid suggestion but to clarify, this is the same bar where they host their music nights so a 100 people is definitely well below the room capacity. The thing I still can't figure out is why he did something like that. As people have mentioned, the owner seems a bit illogical at times and this may well be the best answer. More people would have meant more drinks consumed which would have invariably translated to more profits. I suppose Little Prague just isn't into good business. --["Users/senioritis"]	+ * A valid suggestion but to clarify, this is the same bar where they host their music nights so 100 people is definitely well below the room capacity.

	+ ------ + ''2009-06-18 20:32:26'' [[nbsp]] Without getting involved in the merits of your claims of bad service, which might be totally accurate, I can think of one reason why the owner might not let more than a certain number of people in. Buildings have a maximum occupancy limit. I believe this is set by the fire martial. You can probably find the number above the inside of the door, or at least you can in some places I've lived. It might also be on a sign near the door. I don't know what the limit is there, or whether you were anywhere near it, but if the number of people in your party + the number of people already in the restaurant was close to the max occupancy limit, that would have been a good reason to keep more people from coming in. Of course, they could then have let more people in as others left, and they certainly should have made it clear to you what the limits were if those miht have impacted you. --["Users/IDoNotExist"]

I suppose you assume the group of us came shirtless and shoeless. O contraire, this was a graduation celebration: we had a business casual dress code and not a single sip of alcohol was consumed.

I went hungry thinking it was all-you-can-eat and got instead nothing-to-eat. + + Not all of our members were allowed into the event. I am not even sure how something like this happened.

I could see the merit of keeping them out for the duration of a buffet where we paid for a certain number of people, but again I repeat myself, it wasn’t even close to being a buffet. + + Lastly was the arrangement for after dinner dessert cocktails. It was noted on the contract that friends of the members attending the party would be allowed in to partake in the celebration following the meal. This number would cap around 100 as opposed to the 50 person cap on the dinner. However, the owner seemingly changed his mind and decided to disallow any persons from entering who were not already present at the meal portion of the event. Yet another breach of contract. At this point we decided to leave, as even though we had reserved this venue we were unwilling to go further in letting the owner ruin this night for us. + + Around 50 people attended the meal portion of the event alone and we estimated about 90 people to attend the cocktail portion. Did you ever stop to consider what might actually incline such negative results? Common sense would dictate that the owner must have messed things up royally to have 10 people consider putting in the time to warn others of this place and convey their dissatisfaction. Furthermore, if we were punishing the establishment, all 90 of us would have posted. Instead there were only 10 of us, the rest of which declined to comment but I assure you they were generally displeased with the situation as well. Or are you suggesting that we should have gotten together and left you a singular comment? No. Each person is entitled to their own opinion and I am personally surprised that there were not more comments. We are not being unfair.

Seriously, the plates couldn't fit more than a piece of chicken and mashed potatoes before I had to start layering sauces. ALSO, the HORRIBLE LAST MINUTE notification that only a certain number of people could be there at alll times was horrible. Some of our graduates couldn't even come in (I want my money back)!

And I don't think I speculated, I assessed from previous commenters including the most recent comments as of 6/14 (the Sunday after Commencements) and I feel from viewing the overwhelming amount of negative comments (I count 10 now but there were more) that "you" as in all of you commenters after 6/14 are being incredibly unfair. As a matter of fact none of your comments really even state what appear to be actual facts but simply opinions and perceptions. How do I, a reader of the wiki, know whether or not you are telling the truth? Most of these statements are empty name calling. Here's my question, how much was the contract, was there a per person or per plate price? Did you pay a set fee for a number of people? Who arranged the event? Why did they agree to those terms when the portions and such were unseen? Did you have some kind of indication of portions to compare what you were promised with what you received? --["Users/CarrieBishop"]

Which means if for any reason you are causing trouble in a business establishment the owner of that business reserves the right to refuse to serve you and ask you to leave. There are many reasons including consideration for other patrons and staff as well as access to the facility and safety. If you wanted to have a huge party where people can bring friends and not buy anything I would think Little Prague was not the best idea. I mean just looking at it, it would seem like a bad space. It certainly isn't a rental hall. Maybe your expectations for use versus the owners expectations were not clearly communicated. It doesn't mean you should punish this business for a lack of communication. --["Users/CarrieBishop"]

- ------ - - - ''2008-01-15 02:43:48'' [[nbsp]] I've been here both when it's overflowing with drunk college kids and on a few quiet weekday evenings, and no matter when I go, the staff is extremely friendly. The food is good, although I've only eaten the bar food - the duck nuggets were yummy, and I also had a blue cheese soup that I liked. I generally shy away from the bar scene on the weekends, but nevertheless I've always had fun when someone drags me here. The bouncers are professional, efficient, and kind. The bartenders are attentive and often charming, even when swamped (both the men and women.) One complaint I have is that most every time I've seen him there, the owner is cold at best, often pretty jerky. Once, in the afternoon, I saw him chatting with a patron at the bar - he seemed to be nice. I don't know if he should just stay away when it's busy (because maybe that stresses him out) or if he gets grumpy late at night, but I've been on the verge of boycotting this bar more than once because he's been rude to me and my friends without (apparent) cause as closing time approaches. Alas, Davis offers few alternatives, so I haven't taken such drastic measures yet, and I hope not to. Like I said, I always have fun here. At least on Fridays, the DJ plays great tunes, and the crowd on the dance floor is diverse and happy. I've always been able to get water when I've asked for it, from any of the bartenders. Oh yeah, just in case anyone's listening: - - Dear Little Prague, - You need to have more than one toilet for all of the women at the bar. It's ridiculous. Maybe send us over to the restaurant? Isn't there another bathroom over there? - Love, your friendly neighborhood drinker of diuretics - - --["Users/EvoDiva"] - ------ - ''2008-01-19 11:10:09'' [[nbsp]] My friends and I often frequent this bar for many reasons; I like the cosmopolitan, eclectic atmosphere there, and since I usually show up with a large group the nice bouncers cut us some slack on the cover. Last night I went there with a group of 15 people and we were trying to barter for a group bargain, by which we were brutally denied. Once we all decided to cough up the three dollars we walked up to pay, and the owner let two people walk up in front of us, took their money, and then proceeded to talk down to us. A girl in our party fired back at his rude comments after she paid and got stamped, then he approached her from behind, grabbed her arm and threw her out. While we understand that he had every right to legally act the way he did, he completely sabotaged his community relations with a large group, and grabbing a girl by her arm seems harshly inappropriate. I hate to say it, but I too am boycotting for this place. --["Users/UCDmegan"] - ------ - ''2008-01-19 17:46:37'' [[nbsp]] Another thing to add, a guy in our group who paid the cover before my friends got thrown out, bought a beer, and then came outside to see what was going on (after the owner grabbed a female by her arm and threw her out for verbally responding to his rude, degrading comments), the bouncer asked my friend if he got his money back for the cover. My friend said no, and then asked if he could get a refund on his beer. Obviously the bouncer said no, and told him to pound it. My friend pounded the beer, and then said, "Okay, can I get my money back?" The bouncer said no, and then kicked him out as well. This situation was quite an interesting interpretation of customer service, especially when the owner finished it by sticking his nose in the air and "shooing" us away. --["Users/UCDmegan"] - ------ - ''2008-03-30 15:04:05'' [[nbsp]] Wow, sounds like customer service isn't their best quality over at "Little Prague". Perhaps, the owner wants to give their American customers the same authentic dining experience of Europe? I'm going to go out on a limb here and assume, no. - - I've heard lots of stories that are reminiscent of UCDmegan's experience. But I'm confused about the owner's right to "legally act the he did [sic]" in the alleged incident on 1/18/08. According to facts given by UCDmegan, the owner "approached her [UCDMegan's friend] from behind, grabbed her arm and threw her out." UCDMegan says that while he was harsh and inappropriate, she understands why the owner did what he did. I don't. How the hell is that legal?! Yes, the owner has a legal right to refuse service and can ASK a customer to leave the premises for whatever retarded reason he wants, but GRABBING A WOMAN'S ARM?! She wasn't even doing anything! I could understand if she were violent and he was protecting himself or others, but here? He's just being a colossal A-hole. - - I would have called Davis PD right then and there and reported his crazy ass. And he did this AFTER taking her money and stamping her? Christ, what an awful place. - - --["Users/CurlyGirl26"] - ------ - ''2008-07-11 16:20:25'' [[nbsp]] I think the owner is a pretty cool guy. He's never treated me with any disrespect and, contrary to UncleBob's experience (7/5/2007), I have received free drinks here. I'll continue to drink and eat here. Just a warning, my friend purchased 2 beers here during Happy Hour on 7/8/2008 and paid $7.00. According to my math, that means that happy hour beers are now $3.50 instead of $3.00. --["Users/SlutMan"] - - * That's odd. I was there a week or so ago during Happy Hour and paid $3.00 for my drink. Maybe it was because I schmoozed over the cute bartender (but probably not). --["Users/SunjeetBaadkar"] - ------ - ''2008-07-17 22:24:46'' [[nbsp]] As you can probably tell, it's pretty on and off here. Some happy hour foods aren't bad. Drinks are okay. Good selection of beers for Davis. Although a funny story...the other day, I ordered a White Russian and after putting in all the alcohol, he realized he had no milk or anything. So he says, "I MAKE IT BETTAH" and sprays a gang of whipped cream onto my drink, pretty much amounting to a non-shot BJ. I just kind of looked at it for a moment and had to get a girl-friend to carry it to the table for me. --["Users/SeatonTsai"] - ------ - ''2008-08-12 21:24:00'' [[nbsp]] been here quite a few nights in the past two weeks. It's been very, very slow and quiet so I got more of a chance to chat up the bartenders & observe the owner. The two bartenders I had, "Stormy" and the tall blonde chick who looks kind of polish/european were both cool. They had personality & semi-hooked me up with drinks. - - The owner was just a dick to me the first night, the second time I saw him a bunch of his old foreign friends were there and he was in what passes for a good mood. He did basically peer pressure this girl into getting a better quality tequila, saying 'oh your BF's paying, isn't he?' which I think is kind of uncalled for (I made sure to obnoxiously laugh at him, and give him a dicky answer when he asked what I was laughing at - he seemed to respect that!). Still, LP and especially the owner are NOT for the weak. If you act like you have a pair and talk back to the owner, he will respect you. If you act like a mature alcoholic (and not a dumb college kid) the bartenders respect you. I highly recommend Wednesday night's Captains & Coke special (3.50). Happy hour beers are now 3.50 as well. - - Funny story - I met this old guy who'd been going there for 10 years and he wouldn't shut up about what an asshole the owner was! Bartender claimed the owner's a dick so that the bartenders seem nicer and get better tips. Highlight of my week there was Stormy yelling "don't forget your 50cents in change!" at this group of dumb fools who ordered six drinks but didn't tip. I feel that people who don't tip bartenders (without a damn good reason) should be keelhauled, so I knew LP was the place for me. For everyone who raves about Sophia's -- Sophia's is pretentious, overpriced, and much, much too crowded. Don't go to LP for the food, go for the drinks (specials are quite decent, and can be substituted as long as its the same liquor, eg instead of a 1940's cocktail, you can have gin and tonic, martini, etc). I highly reccomend Berechkova, tonic, and grapefruit for a hot night. - - Certain female bartenders (especially new ones) will say/agree with anything for a larger tip. Take advantage by asking them if they're into girls, what they think of that other girl's rack, what their favorite sex act is, etc etc, and impress your friends! --["Users/davisGeek"] - ------ - ''2008-09-22 10:41:00'' [[nbsp]] LOVE IT! --["Users/colleenj2005"] - ------ - ''2008-11-09 07:47:39'' [[nbsp]] The restaurant part seems like a decent place, family-friendly, and the food is very good.

I paid full price for 2 beers around 7:50. I should of paid half price because of happy hour. So I went up with another member of my group and tried to get half my money back while he bought his beer. It was 7:57. Not only would the bartender not give me half my money back he wouldn't even let my friend get his beer half off. He pointed at the clock at the bar which was 10 minutes fast! There were 4 of us with watches/cellphones which all said 7:57. Somehow the bartender was convinced that all our clocks were wrong and his was right. We've been stopping by there pretty regularly for several months now. This will be our last visit. I wonder if the bartender was the owner as he was an older guy and everyone seems to think the owner's a prick. --["Users/TomK"] - ------ - ''2008-12-12 09:49:14'' [[nbsp]] You know, I used to really like this place. Not too busy before 9 p.m. and easy to get seating. I went there last week and was COMPLETELY disappointed with their lack of professionalism. The DJ that was scheduled to play was fired when she got there. No advance notice or anything. The kicker was that there were at least 10 people who came to see the DJ and so we were all mad for having wasted a trip out in the freezing cold. They definitely did NOT get our business that night and I doubt any of us will ever go back. --["Users/Wldrangel"] - ------ - ''2008-12-12 13:38:42'' [[nbsp]] I used to like this place but I hear so many bad things as of lately.

The food is sub-par and the service absolutely disappointing. Little Prague was chosen to be the place for some pre-graduation fun and celebration however the environment of our intended venue was in many ways hostile and tense due to the overbearing owner who is extremely RUDE and CONDESCENDING. We were intended to have a buffet style meal...I kid you not we were handed plates the equivalent of dessert plates and once everyone had gone up once and filled what space they could...don't even think about seconds because when we went back out all of our entrees had been cleared...and dessert had been brought instead which was also meticuously cut and monitored by the owner who insisted on specifically 46 pieces when clearly more could have been cut from the cake. We were cheated of our money (grossly overpriced contract and overall menu) and treated with utmost disrespect. I highly reccommend everyone to skip this awful restuarant especially if you are looking into holding an event...and actually want to enjoy yourselves and get your money's worth! The owner really needs to re-think his professionalism and demeanor. --["Users/UCDChristine"]

One thing I especially appreciated was we were left in peace to chat without being asked every few minutes if we were "all right".

I'm a little bit disconcerted by some of the reviews I've read on here lately though. My question - mostly directed at wiki regulars, but open to everyone, is whether other people have also experienced roaches or bad behavior from the owner. Are these the reviews of disgruntled former employees, or are these accurate portrayals of the restaurant? --["Users/IDoNotExist"]

The owner is a very nice man i have had many good conversations with him. what people say about him being too crazy or rude is patently untrue. he has been treated very badly by many customers, i have seen this many times. If you are nice to him, then he will be great to you. ant that goes for the entire staff, I think that all of us are very competent. + + and what people say about the restaurant being unsanitary is untrue.

- ------ - ''2007-2-17 13:28:20'' [[nbsp]] It's almost like a bunch of assholes got together and said "hey...let's open a bar." The bartenders are poorly trained and clueless. The owner is unbelievably rude to customers and employees alike and surprisingly public about it. It's no small wonder why there's been a "Help Wanted" sign in their window for almost a year! However, their desserts are good and this is how I sometimes end up here. --["Users/BriannaBetancourt"] - ------ - ''2007-03-26 10:56:44'' [[nbsp]] The service here is terrible. It is a nice place to have a drink, but lately there have been fewer and fewer people patronizing this place and I can see why. The owner is an asshole, and is notorious for underpaying his employees, which would probably explain why they all seem miserable to be working there. Also, they have been out of Hennessey for at least a month now, despite numerous requests to order more. Overall, a nice place to drink it you dont have to make any contact with the staff. I rate this place an 8 out of 10 for atmosphere and a 2 out of 10 for service. --["Users/MikeJones"] - ------ - ''2007-03-30 11:53:28'' [[nbsp]] Changing my comment. This is one of the best bars to go to in Davis. The inside area is a good size and the patio is great. Never feels to stuffy or crowded in here, unlike Soga's. Went here for dinner once but the menu was expensive. They have a "pink night" on Thursdays, which is nice. The Bouncer is one of the nicer ones in Davis, doesn't have an ego trip and treats customers with respect. I'd recommend having a drink here.. but WARNING do not smoke on the patio or else you will be yelled at and shooed out. --["Users/MissBelomy"] - ------ - ''2007-04-01 22:42:09'' [[nbsp]] A friend of mine recommended this place so my boyfriend and I went there last night to get a drink after work. We walked up to two guys standing near the entrance and assumed they were checking IDs so we got our IDs out and stood there holding our IDs for a minute or two. One guy, who I am pretty sure is the owner, looks at us then looks back at the other man with a ponytail and they continue talking and ignore us. So we assumed maybe they check IDs at the bar and slowly started walking inside. The man I believe to be the owner tries to grab at my boyfriend and yells, "Get back here it's not that f*ing easy to get inside!" He then looks at our IDs and lets us in. Needless to say we walked right back out and WILL NOT go back, ever. --["Users/CorinneEpley"] - ------ - ''2007-04-05 15:35:32'' [[nbsp]] I boycotted Little Prague for a couple years after a rude and unnecessary interaction and then was persuaded to go back after they opened the bar and started hosting Pink Night on Thursdays. I figured that if they've gone 'Gay-Friendly,' maybe they've decided to adopt 'Friendly' as a general business practice. Alas, it only took a few visits for the bartenders to overcharge my table and provoke a shouting match with the owner. He conceded no responsibility whatsoever. So, back to the boycott. --["Users/matty_s"] - ------ - ''2007-04-06 20:42:34'' [[nbsp]] Had a horrible experience there. I bought a beer for my friend at happy hour, and the owner came and took the beers from us claiming that I couldn't buy two at a time. I got them just before happy hour ended (at 5:24 since he purposely puts his clock fast, happy hour ends at 5:30). Who cares if I buy my friend a beer? You don't just take somebody's beer that they have paid for right in front of their noses. I have suffered insults in the past at this place, and consider myself pretty easy going, but I wont be going back. --["Users/MichaelNicholas"] - ------ - ''2007-04-07 02:40:13'' [[nbsp]] I'd like to give my own little "fuck you" to LP. I admit it, I totally stiffed them (the czech lady bartender) on a tip once. It was absolutely my fault. I came back a couple of weeks later with the same friend (to the bar), and couldn't get served. A guy came up to begin taking my order, and got pulled aside to not serve us. Okay, my fault, yes. But so tacky and bitchy. --["Users/CaptainRush"] - ------ - Drinking Absinthe purchased in the U.S. is as pointless as drinking non-alcoholic Beer. It contains none of the inhereint properties that have made this potent beverage famous. It will get you drunk but the "body-high" obtained by drinking the real stuff is absent. The petite wormwood found in US sold absinthe has no effect upon the body. As a side note while wormwood is banned in the US there is no criminal charge for having it. So one can order real Absinthe over the internet (I recommend French or Czech brands,) and have it shipped here. From what I understand if it is found by authorities its confiscated but no legal proceedings follow. So order a real bottle and have a little pre-party, be careful its potent but fun. ["Users/jarrettnoble"] - ------- - ''2007-04-13 14:26:30'' [[nbsp]] the owner is a (fill in expletive here). I will never support this business again. We live in a world where our dollar is our vote and though he has one of a few bars in davis, i think the way he treats his customers is appalling. I urge others to boycott this place. let's get a cool bar in town, who's owner didn't learn his manners from a troubled thirteen year old --["Users/DavisClimber"] - ''2007-04-13 15:38:40'' [[nbsp]] Agreed. I used to think his behavior was a cultural thing, but after last night I'm convinced he's actually insane. After a fight broke out in the bar, instead of kicking out the people fighting, he proceeded to kick out the ENTIRE BAR in shocking fashion, waving around a large maglight, almost hitting people with it, pushing customers around, and screaming red-faced like a crazed luncatic. It was a surreal sight, just absolutely looney-tunes. What kind of business owner closes down his bar at 11:30 on the busiest night of the week? From now on I'll spend my money at Sophia's. The owner there is very affable and gracious and knows exactly how to run a business. --["Users/BriannaBetancourt" BB] - ------ - ''2007-04-14 11:31:51'' [[nbsp]] After reading these reviews I think we will start going for dessert as many times as possible until we get to see one of the many famous blow-ups by the owner...Cake and a show, deal schmeel that's a bargain!!! --["Users/rpatte"] - ------ - ''2007-05-02 20:34:26'' [[nbsp]] The food here was on the heavy side, but it was quite tasty. My partner had the vegetarian casserole, which sounded as though it would be very good (potatoes, tomatoes, creamed spinach, and mushrooms, in an Italian spiced egg casserole—oven baked until a browned cheese crust forms), but in fact was sort of boring. I think it's like going to a fish restaurant and ordering steak — it's just not going to be that good! So, this is perhaps not the place for vegetarian food, although there is a nightly vegetarian special that I can't vouch for. Anyway, I had the beef goulash with czech dumplings, which was just wonderfully hearty and tasty. My friend reported the same about her beef stroganoff, although she was surprised that it came with rice rather than noodles. The restaurant offers an amazing array of tempting desserts. We had the chocolate éclair, which I would get again, except that will be hard when there are so many other tempting things to try... --["Users/CovertProfessor"] - ------ - ''2007-05-23 14:25:25'' [[nbsp]] Fuck this place. I decided to give it a second chance on Friday and was reminded of why I stopped coming here in the first place. Drinks were weak, we were ignored for about 15 minutes, and most importantly >>> NO HOT GIRLS, at all...not even decent looking women. In fact, the ratio of men to women was about 10:1, SAD SAD SAD. If this place doesnt start treating its patron better, they are going to lose their business, as they did mine. I will be going to Sogas from now on. --["Users/MikeJones"] - ------ - ''2007-05-23 17:29:17'' [[nbsp]] Not the best service, judging from comments here that seems to be common. However, the food is most excellent, and they have a decent selection of Teas. It seems important to note that many of the complaints seem to be from bar patrons, I dunno why, maybe it is a bad place as a bar. Personally I am a bit biased as I like the food, and wasn't paying. --["Users/DavidPoole"] - ------ - ''2007-05-30 18:28:22'' [[nbsp]] Check out http://theshamelessfoodies.blogspot.com/2007/05/treatise-on-current-state-of-culinary_30.html - For Brooks and Kristen's take on Little Prague as well as two other dining experiences --["Users/BrooksHayes"] - ------ - ''2007-06-13 13:57:29'' [[nbsp]] The owner is an elitest jerk. He treats his staff like hell and is rude to anyone he thinks he can take advantage of. I really like the chairs and the ambiance and the beer selection, but I avoid going there before of him. Go to Sophia's where the owner is a nice, kind, cool person. --["Users/AmyGoogenspa"] - ------ - ''2007-07-01 02:40:34'' [[nbsp]] So I'll be fair. Little Prague is the best bar in Davis based on property. No other bar can have latino/techo dance in one area and a live band in another, while still maintaining an ourdoor patio where people can (for the most part) talk easily. However, what is with their business of not giving out tap water? Can someone please amend this article as to a reason WHY? To illustrate customer care: I haven't seen their men's room with paper towels in months and they disconnect the hot water to the bathrooms (speculative ->) just to be cheap. As far as atmosphere, Little Prague is right up there with Sophia's, but service at Sophia's is still better. --["Users/MichaelAWoods"] - * Is it just the bar where they won't give you tap water? When I've gone there for dinner, I've gotten tap water which the waitstaff refilled without my needing to ask. --["Users/CovertProfessor"] - * Yes, it is just at the bar. For those who drink and would like a glass or two of water before leaving the bar, it is a sad occasion. However, the last time I was there, I believe the bartenders gave glasses of water. --["Users/MichaelAWoods"] - * I'm so very offended by the bottled water policy. They even have a poster explaining that they don't give out tap water at the bar. It's just to squeeze out some extra pennies but a. it encourages drinking and b. bottled water is just more waste for the environment. I know bars that serve fried food and beer aren't exactly know for their health policies, but I have a hard with a bar with so much contempt for my health. - ------ - ''2007-07-05 14:42:48'' [[nbsp]] This place is alright, but not great. Sometimes I get drinks and I wonder if there is alcohol in them. I also tip more than any of these poor ass college students that hang out here, and the bartenders still are slow and make weak drinks even though they know me now. THE FACT THAT THIS PLACE EVER HAS A COVER just pisses me off. Maybe the bars here will realize that you shouldn't charge a fee to spend more money. Especially for a crap-ass DJ. Despite the fact that they know me they never hook me up with free drinks or anything. Hopefully the bartenders and owners will realize that the more free drinks they give out to paying customers, the more those paying customers will spend in the end. You don't make money by being anal about charging $7 for every crappy drink. You do make more money by hooking up the regulars, getting them to drink more than would paying full price for everything. Just ONE in the last TWO YEARS might be nice... --["Users/UncleBob"] - ------ - ''2007-07-15 15:40:06'' [[nbsp]] The owner was rude as hell to me and 5 of my friends last night for no reason, I guess he doesn't recognize me even though I go here a lot. Everyone else here is always nice, but that guy was a total prick. Screw that guy. Their DJ blows too. It's never worth it when there is a cover. --["Users/GarrettGallegos"] - ------ - ''2007-07-15 16:40:21'' [[nbsp]] I've been there for a few times. At the beginning, I think this is a nice place to for drink beer, relax and talk with friends. However, after I experience extremely rude behaviour of the owner, I have to confess that I no longer want to go to this place anymore. The owner just has no patient and ready to be angry anytime with any customer. He is so obnoxious. I will never go back to this place. --["Users/ssppdd"] - ------ - ''2007-07-16 12:56:36'' [[nbsp]] great atmosphere, authentic food, generally good drinks, sometimes good music. It is not worth going if there is a cover (which is generally put in place after 11pm), but when there is no cover, it is the best "chillin" bar in Davis. If you are not the "chillin" type, and prefer a rowdier bar adventure with your bros, then this is not the place for you. The owner is a very up-tight fellow, and I have heard him say that he likes patrons who are well-dressed, whatever that may mean. Oh, and there is only one restroom for each gender, and on busy nights, those lines get very, very long. The bouncers are much nicer then at the other bars in Davis. - - For a dinner/ dining deal, this is a very nice, special occasion type place. I had a potato dish the last time I ate there, and it was light, creamy, well spiced, and unexpected. --["Users/JillBenciWoodward"] - ------ - ''2007-08-01 10:21:37'' [[nbsp]] All I can say about this place is the owner is an ASSHOLE. It would be a nice place to enjoy a drink if it weren't for the owner always lurking around the bar looking like a complete douche bag. The tools-boxes that bar tend at this place make weak drinks and tend to lag when it comes to heloing patrons at the bar. I once ordered several shots of patron and gave the bartender a generous tip, only to be ingnored the next time I tried to order a drink. Oh and pink night, that shit has got to go. How about hot chicks get in for free night?? I think that would be much better. Oh, and dont expect to be served if you are tired and your eyes are slightly red....I was refused a drink by the blonde with huge bombs because she said my eyes were red. Well, I was actually just tired and had just finished smoking a fat ass joint, but after xplaining this to her she still refused to serve me. --["Users/Furly707"] - ------ - ''2007-08-13 01:07:26'' [[nbsp]] WTF they won't server water in a glass at the bar you have to buy bottled water for $1. I feel like it is a rip off. --["Users/notyou"] - ------ - ''2007-08-26 15:44:16'' [[nbsp]] After 3 years of exiling my ex's to little prague, citing that it was the only place I would never frequent - I now think its GREAT. The owner (V) has ALWAYS treated my partner and I with respect and I actually find him quite charming perhaps specifically because of the older european man air that some (below) perceive as arrogant. We've been streamlined through the line at front when they're carding and this is the only bar where bouncer's don't think a passport is subordinate to a driver's license. This is also the only bar where bechelrovka is always readily available which is a huge plus. And when the Bechelrovia is on ocassional shortage, V has always suggestd other equally bitter/tart alternatives - at least once with the first one comp'ed. The current line up of bartenders are nice, friendly, and sociable, although I admit its not always been like that in the past. And hey, where else can you get any international sport aired that you want? Without LP we wouldn't be so privy to the fascinating sport of "hurling". I like a guy who runs his bar with the kahunas to not cater to an obnoxious barely drinking-legal crowd. LP adds bit of spice to a town with an otherwise benign bar scene, even if only for the unpredictability. Its only remaining downfall for me is that the crowds usually suck on a friday or saturday night. --["Users/HillaryThomas"] - ------ - ''2007-09-10 09:58:26'' [[nbsp]] May I just say that I haven't been here, but as an owner, you should be professional at all times. Cussing people out isn't exactly professional. I'M JUST SAYING. Aaaand I heard that there's lots of gay boys on Thursday nites? Anyone like to enlighten me on the goings on? LOL --["Users/joeistheish"] - ------ - ''2007-09-28 01:59:45'' [[nbsp]] I dont want to comment about food since i have been there a few years ago and I had stomach problems for 2 days and after that I decided not to go there for food (no need to mention about the high prices). I am just here to complain about the rude owner. I have always been feeling sorry about the owner. I have been joking around with my friends and I happened to kick he bathroom door with my foot (I shouldnt have done but I did). And just at the same minute the owner is next to me and doing his job about being rude. Instead of telling me nicely what I was done was wrong, he started talking rude and in a few seconds swearing. After a few sentences, what he said exactly was "GET THE F..K OUT OF HERE". I have to mention that I was not drunk, didnt even drink one single sip of alcohol that night.What kind of an owner would do that. And his rudeness went on and on. I had to leave the place with my friends. He doesnt know anything about business. What kind of an owner would check out IDs at the entrance?? And I have to mention about the smell inside. It always stinks inside, heavy oil. He can use the money he is charging at the entrance to solve that problem! --["Users/ce19cl"] - ------ - ''2007-10-19 13:24:19'' [[nbsp]] To all those people that complain about spending money at bars...are you serious? If you went to the City and asked for water at a bar you would be charged at least $3 for water because they do no give out tap, but bottled. The same goes for Sacramento bars. I do not know much about the food, but the bartenders that serve me always did so in a timely manner and if they were busy then I act like and adult and I wait until it is my turn. I just feel that those people that always think "the customer is always right" has never worked in the restaurant business and if the owner is rude to you maybe you deserved it. --["Users/hapa21"] - - Every bar I've asked for water from in SF has given it to me from the tap for free. --["Users/PhilipNeustrom"] - My experience is the same as Philip's. -- ["Users/Rocksanddirt"] - ------ - ''2007-10-19 13:40:42'' [[nbsp]] I love Little Prague and have never had a problem with the owner. I say my "pleases" and "thank yous" in excess...so maybe that is why. I like that there is a dress code because it means that there is at least one bar in Davis where I can grab a drink and not see morons shouting about "The Hills". Also, the woman who works the bar during happy hours (the owner's wife?) is absolutely sweet and makes strong gin and tonics. Yeah, I've seen the owner blow up, but I feel that the prices are reasonable and worth it for the atmosphere. --["Users/JillWeinstein"] - ------ - ''2007-10-27 11:03:56'' [[nbsp]] I haven't had any foul experiences with the owner, but had a TERRIBLE run-in with one of the female bartenders there recently. I have NEVER been been treated so rudely by a bartender in my life. Having lived in large cities such as Washington, DC, New York, and San Francisco and frequenting many types of bars in those vicinities, I am used to bartenders feeling rushed and possessing very brisk & gruff attitudes. However, they are still usually able to sufficiently answer my questions and incorporate common courtesies (eye contact, "thank you"'s, smiles, etc.) into the exchanges. Why a bartender in a lame little town like Davis feels that she can belittle customers and act like a shrew for absolutely no reason (it was 9 o'clock in the evening when I was there, so they were NOT AT ALL busy) is a mystery to me! Needless to say my friends and I refused to tip this beast and I do not plan on ever coming back. Hopefully if the employees at this crap-hole continue treating their customers in this manner, the place will close down sooner rather than later. Congrats to LP for losing yet another group of alcohol-loving customers. Keep it up! --["Users/gbird"] - ------ - ''2007-10-27 12:47:41'' [[nbsp]] I had a similar experience to gbird's. I found the service to be very unfriendly and don't think I"ll be coming back any time soon. The guy at the door was hella' cool though. --["Users/SuperGiblet"] - ------ - ''2007-10-27 23:13:40'' [[nbsp]] We ate here about a year ago in the spring, on a Sunday. They had live Violin music which was nice (but people would clap after every single song, which got a little annoying. I think you're just supposed to give a tip in the musicians jar when you leave.) The food is a little bland and we never got our water refilled. We haven't been back. I think this is a place that you'll either love and frequent, or will feel uncomfortable like we did and not come back. --["Users/HeatherBeck"] - ------ - ''2007-11-08 18:55:50'' [[nbsp]] I won't comment on the owner, but I love the comfort of the bar. It has the best bar ambiance in my opinion. Drinks have been hit or miss in the past 2 years. I like their lastest female bartender. From the wiki comments, I decided to try the princess cake. It was all that they say it is. So yummy. Even my boyfriend and my girlfriend's fiancee loved it! --["Users/lemurific"] - ------ - ''2007-11-11 00:59:11'' [[nbsp]] The owner is certifiable and the place is completely unsanitary. The food is greasy and overpriced with rude bartenders and cakes made from a mix. - --["Users/robmcgee"] - * I find it very hard to believe that their multilayered dome cake consisting of 3 layers: sponge cake, bavarian creme, and marzipan, is made from a box. Perhaps the sponge cake portion is, but how could the rest? --["Users/lemurific"] - ------ - ''2007-11-11 14:23:33'' [[nbsp]] To the owners of Little Prague: Based on the useful and instructive criticisms from other reviewers above, I've created a handy list of things you should do to improve your business: - - 1. You should provide free drinks to everyone, or at least to really cool people who frequent your place like "UncleBob." - 2. When people kick in your bathroom door, you should thank them nicely, maybe even comp their dinner and drinks. - 3. Consider hiring some of the dancers from Gold Club Centerfolds in Sac to hang out in your bar. This will increase the number of hot chicks. Bonus points if the dancers are horny and single. - 4. You should allow people to smoke whenever and wherever they want. - 5. Stop asking for IDs at the bar. Nobody in a college town would ever go drinking under age 21. - 6. Lower all of your prices by at least half. - - These things should help make your business more profitable, and your customers happier, since after all, we know better and should be your #1 concern. Cheers! --["Users/jwe"] - * No one ever complained about them charging money for drinks, maybe you are refering to tap water. Yes i think they should do what every other reputable (and non-reputable for that matter) bar in the US does and give free tap water to PAYING customers. In fact on many nights DDs have to pay to get in. So everyone there is a paying customer on those nights. - * You didn't read UncleBob's comment above: "Despite the fact that they know me they never hook me up with free drinks or anything." --["Users/CovertProfessor"] - - * He wasn't complaining about them charging money for drinks, he was complaining that they short pore and do not give regular customers drinks on the house when they have to pay a cover everytime to get in the door. This quote is taken completely out of context. This statement was not the main point of his post. He just thaught it is good business practice to reward regular customers who treat the staff well. --["Users/MattHh"] - ------ - ''2007-11-16 09:22:59'' [[nbsp]] The owner is a douchebag and thinks he's tight because he used to play hoops on Europe. Well, I have played hoops with him many times and he is just as much of an asshole on the basketball court as he is in his restuarant/bar (also doesnt play any defense). So for those of you who think he is just an asshole because he has to deal with drunk college kids, guess again, he is actually an asshole ALL THE TIME. It is only a matter of time before this establishment goes out of business. - Jeremiah --["Users/Furly707"] - ------ - ''2007-11-19 15:42:43'' [[nbsp]] Rumor has it that for years scientists from the former Soviet Union have secrectly been meeting with US scientists designing and creating a genetically superior super-dick restraunt owner, a new kind of uber a-hole, unmatched in his ability to piss people off, lose customers, and pretty much stand for all that is wrong in the restaurant and bar business. It seems as if they have finally suceeded, and planted this person in Davis. It almost makes one want to go and see with their own two eyes this completely-perfect super-tool. Don't. Just keep walking, pretend you never had the thought. I have never even been to the bar, but after regularly spending more than a few bucks at the restaurant, and being mistreated and insulted on more than one occassion, I vowed never to go back. I used to think I was alone and maybe overreacting a bit, turns out that isn't the case. LP is a waste of time and money. --["Users/Arnie"]

	+ At one point an apparent employee from Little Prague posted a reply to some of the complaints. The reply was retracted, but the basic points were that there is a usually a supply of ice water and glasses at the end of the bar for people wanting free water (they ''do'' sell bottled water), last call is when the bartender calls it, regardless of the clock or your watch, prices for drinks are set by bartenders, so they can vary from time to time, and people who tip tend to get first and better service (which is probably true at all ["bars"]). The likely reason the comment was retracted was due to the comment that the owner wasn't an asshole, but he was "plain crazy". He means well, but "believe it or not, he thinks he is doing the right thing most of the time". There was also the point made that they are aggressive about providing a welcome environment for all groups, and that the cakes and bread are made from scratch daily in the bakery. +

Sure it was rude, but it was even worse when the owner decided to yell "GO FUCK YOURSELVES". Nice chairs in the bar though...realy nice. --["Users/RohiniJasavala"] - ------ - ''2006-01-13 01:08:54'' [[nbsp]] I went to Little Prague for dessert this evening, we had cheesecake and some strange green cake with marzipan. They have two displays (one in the bar and one in the main area) filled with yummy items made by the owner's wife. It is nice to find some homemade dessert with many places selling previously frozen cake these days. If dinner is too pricey for you, try dessert there some evening! --["Users/DanWillenbring"] - ------ - ''2006-01-29 20:12:00'' [[nbsp]] The duck nuggets here are awesome.

The strange green cake Dan W. was referring to is almost certainly princess cake...and boyyyyy is it delicious. Seriously guys, princess cake. Ordering it can be a little emasculating, but it's a small price to pay. French Pear cake is very good too. Without question, the best dessert you can get in Davis. As for the other food here, I've only had breakfast and it's pretty average. --["Users/RyanLeverenz"] - - ------ - ''2006-03-06 13:19:45'' [[nbsp]] I love how one day Apollo is like "f them" and the next day is raving about their duck nuggets. --["Users/JaimeRaba"] - ------ - ''2006-03-06 14:05:45'' [[nbsp]] Went there Sunday. both meal and dessert was good but the dessert was better. Had the napoleon with berries and choco cake. --["Users/MyaBrn"] - ------ - ''2006-03-17 11:22:55'' [[nbsp]] The owner's name is Vaclav (pr: VaSlav). Treat him with respect, and you'll get it back. My friends and I go there all the time, and while he was cold at first, he's pretty nice to us now. Think about it, his job involves drunk college students who do things like throw his bathroom stuff into an allley. He owns and runs a pretty nice place, so I cut him some slack. Breakfasts are SO better than Caffe Italia, which is really no better than a Dennys, in food or atmosphere, which is another area in which Little Prague shines. My favorite part: rude, righteous patrons don't get the customary "we're so sorry" from the manager, they get asked to leave. Right on, Vaclav. --["Users/DavidBenjamin"] - ------ - ''2006-03-17 12:43:22'' [[nbsp]] Ditto. Vaclav rocks. Although he's not the only owner with that attitude. This town certainly doesn't have a shortage of kids who think they're entitled to being treated like royalty. --["Users/JeremiahBurney"] - ------ - ''2006-04-04 03:09:29'' [[nbsp]] I think I prefer the atmosphere of the bar area to the restaurant next door. The Sacha (sp?) Torte is delicious and moist, and the ganache was perfect. The Princess Cake was almost too pretty to eat with the thick green fondant and bright red raspberry cream layer in between thick white cream and moist white cake. The bartenders (9:30-12mn) are very friendly. I highly recommend this place and I'll definitely be back to try the rest of the cakes on their extensive menu! --["Users/JennaChan"] - ------ - ''2006-04-08 23:38:33'' [[nbsp]] Little Prague is my favorite bar for a laid back atmosphere. It's got a comfortable vibe and nice employees, plus as far as I know, there's no cover for going there, which is always appreciated. --SS - ------ - ''2006-04-11 14:11:06'' [[nbsp]] I forgot to add that when the owner spoke with my date and me, he said that they don't have any set closing times. If there is a lot of business, they'll stay open for as long as most of them stick around. Even though the official closing time on Mondays is 10pm, they didn't kick us out until midnight, even though we were the last two patrons at the bar! --["Users/JennaChan"] - ------ - ''2006-04-18 16:57:04'' [[nbsp]] went here with my girlfriend's family for dinner, felt INCREDIBLY bad when i saw how expensive the menu was. would not go here unless you have deep pockets and particularly enjoy bohemian food. down the street there's a subway you can indulge it, for MUCH less. --["Users/ArlenKwong"] - ------ - ''2006-04-21 14:20:44'' [[nbsp]] The strudel part of the apple strudel was flavorless! The whole thing was a little bland. The chocolate fudge cake with raspberry didn't have much raspberry in it and was unimpressive overall. The duck nuggets were excellent, but pricey- what else can one expect from an "upscale" joint? My friend and I have come here so often for supper that the bartenders, who are very friendly and good-looking, know our faces, but that tall skinny guy seems to forget his customers' existence sometimes. I have not had a bad experience with the owner yet. Even the bouncers are cool people! --["Users/JennaChan"] - ------ - ''2006-04-24 14:41:22'' [[nbsp]] IMO, the owner is really nice once he sees you regularly. I think he's just trying to avoid his bar turning into something as base as Sophia's. --["Users/RohiniJasavala"] - ------ - ''2006-06-09 18:13:06'' [[nbsp]] I have to say thumbs up to the princess cake. Man, soo delicious. Also, the happy hour is great since it includes 1/2 off appetizers as well.

He made up drinking on the fly, let my friends name them and then brought out to our table better garnishes that better fit the drinks he had created. I also found that they are one of the only places I have been to that offers weisswurst, and it quite tasty at that. I think the food was overpriced, but the bar was fun. They we're being strict about who could in the bar due the fact we were the only real group there that night. --["Users/TracyPerkins"] - ------ - ''2006-07-30 11:31:14''[[nbsp]] I've been to Little Prague at least half a dozen times or more, and the only thing consistent about this bar is their inability to make drinks and their rudeness. Seriously, I've never been to a bar where the bartenders were so inept! If you're not ordering a Czech beer (which I would recommend)- then don't even think about going to this place for drinks. While the atmosphere is really nice, if I'm going to spend that kind of cash on a bar bill I'm going to go to Sophia's where the bartenders know what they're doing. Apparently, rude service is as much of the atmosphere at Little Prague as long waits are at Bistro. --["Users/JasonBell"] - ------ - ''2006-08-10 06:17:25'' [[nbsp]] The food is good not great, and it’s too expensive. The owner is totally obnoxious, and even though he never got in my face, I don't like the way he looms around the place when you are trying to relax and have some fun. I have never seen any bad behavior there from patrons (though I’m sure it exists), but I have seen the owner muscle people around a more than a few times. Maybe he had to, but it is too much for my pals and me to watch; we go elsewhere. --["Users/WayneSchiller"] - ------ - ''2006-08-24 07:23:01'' [[nbsp]] Their mushroom soup is amazing and so is their chicken something-or-other...good thing my friend treated me to dinner though, because my wallet would have bitten off my hand knowing how ridiculously expensive my meal was--God save me! --["Users/EliseKane"] - ------ - ''2006-09-22 20:16:45'' [[nbsp]] 2006-09-22 Tonight ended our patronage at Little Prague. Our appetizers took an hour and 15 mins to arrive at our table. Twice we asked about the status and were told that they were coming. When we asked the waiter to comp the order, he spoke with two people and finally returned to say, "We're sorry...yada yada...we're busy...do you want some bread?" BREAD! This business is willing to lose a table of seven good customers for a $6.25 plate of appetizers. That's really bad business and we will never return. --["Users/LisaKrebs"] - ------ - ''2006-11-08 20:59:02'' [[nbsp]] my boyfried loves this place.

Most of the food (czech nuggets, potato salad, schnitzels) is just pre-made stuff bought at Costco. Some of the food is decent, but not worth the price at all. 2.) The owner is one of the rudest, most brutish people I have ever encountered. He treats EVERYONE like crap, employees and customers included. Granted, there are a select few that he's actually nice to which further perplexes me because this does show that he does have the capacity (as small as it is) to be civil and act in a humane manner. But if you're not part of that select 1% or so, watch the hell out. He'll use any excuse to go into profanity-laced temper tantrum. He's the worst towards his employees. As a former food service employee I tell all of my friends to stay away from that place based off of how poorly he treats his employees. --["Users/DavisDavis"] - ------ - ''2006-11-14 23:13:41'' [[nbsp]] I went here for the 5+ years that I lived in Davis, mostly because I'm 1/2 Slovak and czech/slovak restaurants are rare to say the least. The food has always been pretty good. The potato pancakes are fairly tasty. However, I am a bit of a stickler when it comes to things like Paprikash, since I do have my grandmother's as a basis of comparison. All in all the food is decent and worthwhile if you've never had Eastern European food before. It is pricey, so repeat visits are unlikely unless you really love it. I recommend the Goulash for those who are new to Czech food. - - One more thing, the owner has always been an arrogant ass to me. For example, the last time I ever went there, my last night in Davis, he refused to seat us, saying he was too busy and made us (my girlfriend and I) wait at the bar. It was pretty clear he just wanted us to go there to buy drinks. It seemed to be really unclassy as a business owner to try to extort your customer as such. His son often waits (very Eastern Euro looking, bulkier and a little shorter than his dad) at the restaurant and it's hard to believe they are related. His son is infinitely nicer. --["Users/AndrewMatey"] - - ------ - * ["Costco"]'s potato salad is vomitously bad, so I find it hard to believe that any restaurant would use it. Also, I've never seen duck nuggets at Costco. Do you know the brand name or in what section you can get it? --["Users/CraigBrozinsky"] - - * I used to work there, they get a lot of their stuff at Costco and I don't know if they specifically get their duck nuggets there, but it's either there or some other wholesale foods place. In other words, they come frozen and they are just heated up in a microwave. As for the potato salad, go to LP and order a dish with it and you'll see what I'm talking about. It's the exact same type you can buy by the tub at Safeway, Costco, etc. In other words, they don't make it there. The desserts are pretty much the only thing that they make in-house, besides some of the sauces and some other random stuff. Most of it is frozen from a food wholesale place (like Costco). --DavisDavis - ------ - ''2006-12-24 13:28:20'' [[nbsp]] Last week I had their black forest cake....DELICIOUS.

Not only that when I went there and used there bathroom there was a waitress or cook I'm not sure who was talking to the owner in the bathroom with a tray of food that was going to be served. It was gross. And recently my friend went and found a ROACH swimming in her coffee. In the past I've heard the owner yelling at customers and employees. I was hesitant about coming here after all the bad reviews but by personal experience I have to say for the most part are accurate. I'm officially boycotting this place and have recommended my friends to do the same. --["Users/Davidcm"]

	+ ------ + ''2009-03-18 14:58:29'' [[nbsp]] SO I worked her for a total of 2 months before I got totally sick of it. let me clarify one thing, Vaclav is a complete asshole and the most rudest person I have ever met in my life. If you support his restaurant then you are also supporting the following: + + Terrible and degrading treatment of this employees. I knew for the second I got hired that I wouldnt be there to stay. I had n=only worked there for a short while before I had to witness his yelling and temper tantrums. He cusses and screams at anything and everything. I had to work with him one day out of the week. He doesn't do shit other then walk around barking orders. and yes he is the owner but if he plans on only staffing one waitress (me) to take care of a lunch shift then he can't expect me to be BUSSING, ROLLING NAPKINS, TAKING/PLACING ORDERS, ROLLING NAPKINS, WASHING DISHES, SERVING TABLES, RING UP TICKETS, GETTING DRINKS AT THE BAR AND GETTING REFILLS ALL AT ONE TIME. So one lady came and I had not had a chance to help her but Vaclav did. I didn't know he sat her but didnt help her. When i was in the back washing dishes after bussing and talking another parties orders, his wife EVA pulls me aside to show me that someone had punched a hole in the bathroom wall. When we came back Vaclav shoved a bunch of togo boxes at me and yelled at me to stop talking. I was completely blind sighted and after he yelled at me I started crying and walked away. he pulled me aside and i tried to explain that Eva pulled me aside and that I hadnt done anything wrong. He kept telling me to be quiet and accused me of yelling at him in front of costumers which was a total lie because she was shouting at me. Is wife Eva even tried to tell him that it wasnt my fault. After I refused to let him continue to yell at me he brought me to the back and said that I was fired. I said peace and told him that I was reporting him for harassment (on many occasions) and working me without breaks. Yes, I would work 5,6,7, 8 hour breaks with no break! Other employees said that they had worked 12 hours with no breaks as well. + + ALSO, the place is totally UNSANITARY! You have been warned. this place has a roach infestation! Not a typical restaurant one either, I REALLY BIG ONE. I find them crawling all other their breads, silverware, food, and have even found tons in our coffee pots AND i recently discovered one in our chocolate powder. ALSO, the coffee he serves in the morning during the week is NOT brewed fresh. its from the day before and he has us heat it up again to serve at lunch. When we ran out of fresh regualr coffee he had us use the old decaf coffee saying, "they will never know the difference." I WAS TOTALLY AGAINST THIS and served fresh coffee when he wasnt around. ALSO, I have witnessed the cooks drop food on the floor, pick it up, put it back on the plate and serve it to customers I SHIT YOU NOT! The bread that you eat when he serves it with meals is also is taken off of other peoples tables that had not eaten it and put together iwth others to amke new bread baskets. these are just a flew examples of how disgusting this place is. + + Usually i would not post something like this but after putting up with all of his crap for 2 months and dealing with his harassment and BS i feel i owe them nothing and owe their customers a huge apology and urge you to think twice about when you are willing to spend there. If you do plan on going back at least this will be in the back of your mind and you'll be aware of the kind of business you are supporting. + + --["Users/DavisLocal0716"]

I'm sure they just don't want any reason for the ABC to get involved. It's not a big deal. In fact, LP's time seems closer to real time than most bars, as I used to go there for a "night cap" after the other bars have kicked everyone out at 1:30am. Also, when you give respect, you get respect. I've had friends treated rudely here, but they were being rowdy and totally deserved it. I've always had great service at both, the restaurant and the bar. I'm also not belligerent and respect the bar. I wonder if there's a correlation. ..

Not only would the bartender not give me half my money back he wouldn't even let my friend get his beer half off. He pointed at the clock at the bar which was 10 minutes fast! There were 4 of us with watches/cellphones which all said 7:57. Somehow the bartender was convinced that all our clocks were wrong and his was right. We've been stopping by there pretty regularly for several months now. This will be our last visit. I wonder if the bartender was the owner as he was an older guy and everyone seems to think the owner's a prick. --["Users/TomK"]

	+ ------ + ''2008-08-12 21:24:00'' [[nbsp]] been here quite a few nights in the past two weeks. It's been very, very slow and quiet so I got more of a chance to chat up the bartenders & observe the owner. The two bartenders I had, "Stormy" and the tall blonde chick who looks kind of polish/european were both cool. They had personality & semi-hooked me up with drinks. + + The owner was just a dick to me the first night, the second time I saw him a bunch of his old foreign friends were there and he was in what passes for a good mood. He did basically peer pressure this girl into getting a better quality tequila, saying 'oh your BF's paying, isn't he?' which I think is kind of uncalled for (I made sure to obnoxiously laugh at him, and give him a dicky answer when he asked what I was laughing at - he seemed to respect that!). Still, LP and especially the owner are NOT for the weak. If you act like you have a pair and talk back to the owner, he will respect you. If you act like a mature alcoholic (and not a dumb college kid) the bartenders respect you. I highly recommend Wednesday night's Captains & Coke special (3.50). Happy hour beers are now 3.50 as well. + + Funny story - I met this old guy who'd been going there for 10 years and he wouldn't shut up about what an asshole the owner was! Bartender claimed the owner's a dick so that the bartenders seem nicer and get better tips. Highlight of my week there was Stormy yelling "don't forget your 50cents in change!" at this group of dumb fools who ordered six drinks but didn't tip. I feel that people who don't tip bartenders (without a damn good reason) should be keelhauled, so I knew LP was the place for me. For everyone who raves about Sophia's -- Sophia's is pretentious, overpriced, and much, much too crowded. Don't go to LP for the food, go for the drinks (specials are quite decent, and can be substituted as long as its the same liquor, eg instead of a 1940's cocktail, you can have gin and tonic, martini, etc). I highly reccomend Berechkova, tonic, and grapefruit for a hot night. + + Certain female bartenders (especially new ones) will say/agree with anything for a larger tip. Take advantage by asking them if they're into girls, what they think of that other girl's rack, what their favorite sex act is, etc etc, and impress your friends! --["Users/davisGeek"]

Although a funny story...the other day, I ordered a White Russian and after putting in all the alcohol, he realized he had no milk or anything. So he says, "I MAKE IT BETTAH" and sprays a gang of whipped cream onto my drink, pretty much amounting to a non-shot BJ. I just kind of looked at it for a moment and had to get a girl-friend to carry it to the table for me. --["Users/SeatonTsai"]

Breakfasts are SO better than Caffe Italia, which is really no better than a Dennys, in food or atmosphere, which is another area in which Little Prague shines.

Most of the food (czech nuggets, potato salad, schnitzels) is just pre-made stuff bought at Costco. Some of the food is decent, but not worth the price at all. 2.) The owner is one of the rudest, most brutish people I have ever encountered. He treats EVERYONE like crap, employees and customers included. Granted, there are a select few that he's actually nice to which further perplexes me because this does show that he does have the capacity (as small as it is) to be civil and act in a humane manner. But if you're not part of that select 1% or so, watch the hell out. He'll use any excuse to go into profanity-laced temper tantrum. He's the worst towards his employees.

Most of the food (czech nuggets, potato salad, schnitzels) is just pre-made stuff bought at Costco. Some of the food is decent, but not worth the price at all. 2.) The owner is one of the rudest, most brutish people I have ever encountered. He treats EVERYONE like crap, employees and customers included. Granted, there are a select few that he's actually nice to which further perplexes me because this does show that he does have the capacity (as small as it is) to be civil and act in a humane manner. But if you're not part of that select 1% or so, watch the hell out. He'll use any excuse to go into profanity-laced temper tantrum. He's the worst towards his employees. As a former food service employee I tell all of my friends to stay away from that place based off of how poorly he treats his employees. --["Users/DavisDavis"]

For example, the last time I ever went there, my last night in Davis, he refused to seat us, saying he was too busy and made us (my girlfriend and I) wait at the bar. It was pretty clear he just wanted us to go there to buy drinks. It seemed to be really unclassy as a business owner to try to extort your customer as such.

- Drinking Absinthe purchased in the U.S. is as pointless as drinking non-alcoholic Beer. It contains none of the inhereint properties that have made this potent beverage famous. It will get you drunk but the "body-high" obtained by drinking the real stuff is absent. The petite wormwood found in US sold absinthe has no effect upon the body. As a side note while wormwood is banned in the US there is no criminal charge for having it. So one can order real Absinthe over the internet (I recommend French or Czech brands,) and have it shipped here. From what I understand if it is found by authorities its confiscated but no legal proceedings follow. So order a real bottle and have a little pre-party, be careful its potent but fun.

I have NEVER been been treated so rudely by a bartender in my life.

However, they are still usually able to sufficiently answer my questions and incorporate common courtesies (eye contact, "thank you"'s, smiles, etc.) into the exchanges. Why a bartender in a lame little town like Davis feels that she can belittle customers and act like a shrew for absolutely no reason (it was 9 o'clock in the evening when I was there, so they were NOT AT ALL busy) is a mystery to me! Needless to say my friends and I refused to tip this beast and I do not plan on ever coming back.
