Różana, Polish restaurant in Chocimska Street, Warsaw, Poland.
Różana is a Polish restaurant on Chocimska Street in the Mokotów district of Warsaw, serving regional dishes made with traditional methods. The dining rooms are decorated with flowers, embroidered linens, and soft lighting, and a pianist sometimes plays during dinner service.
The restaurant opened in the 1990s, a period when private dining establishments began to reappear across Poland after decades of state-run catering. It is one of the few places from that generation that has stayed open continuously and kept the same focus.
Różana specializes in regional Polish cooking using recipes that were once passed down in family homes. Visitors will notice the fresh flowers on each table and the embroidered linens that give the room a domestic, unhurried feeling.
Booking ahead is a good idea, as the restaurant fills up quickly on evenings and weekends. A table on a weekday, earlier in the evening, is usually easier to secure.
Every Wednesday the restaurant offers a menu built around fresh fish and seafood, which is unusual for a place so focused on inland Polish cooking. That same evening, a guitarist joins the pianist, making Wednesday night noticeably different from the rest of the week.
