Cactus

Top choice in Eastern Slovakia


Seafood risotto, duck with chocolate-cranberry sauce, herb-crusted pork with beetroot strudel…the flamboyant food at this upscale spot has influences from Scandinavian to French and the all-wood interior, strung with fairy-lights, is a romantic setting. Service is thoughtful, as are the selections on the mostly local wine list. There's a playground out back, too.
