The story
Lwia Brama² occupies the oldest part of Wrocław: Ostrów Tumski, a former church island that today draws tourists and locals alike. The restaurant sits in a medieval cellar with a garden set against the arch-cathedral of John the Baptist—a quiet refuge from the city’s noise.
Chef Jarosław Józefowski leads the kitchen, combining regional ingredients with house-made products. The menu changes with the seasons, built around carefully sourced produce.
Starters include a wet-aged beef tartare with brown mushroom and nasturtium, and beetroot with goat cheese from local producer Serotonina. A fermented cucumber soup comes with pork cheek and leek emulsion. For mains, there is Atlantic salmon with root vegetables and oyster mushrooms, duck breast in oranges with red cabbage and fried potato dumplings, and a Polish wet-aged beef tenderloin steak with pepper sauce. Lamb rump is paired with pearl barley, chocolate sauce, and wild broccoli. Desserts and a plate of Lower Silesian cheeses round out the meal.
The wine list features Polish bottles from Lower Silesia alongside European classics.
Lwia Brama² has earned a Michelin Recommended distinction, a recognition of its refined modern Polish cooking and the calm, historic setting on Ostrów Tumski.
