“ Beautiful restaurant with a cozy terrace. I wasnt feeling good and the barman made a huge effort for me to feel as comfortable as possible. Forever grateful. ”

“ The art of preparing delicious, exceptional tasting food! Special place, highly, recommended! ”

“ Even in a city and area rich in good restaurants, Chapter One is a cut above. Perhaps more expensive than other local restaurants, you are never in doubt over the quality of the cuisine and accompanying wine. The service was attentive but not intrusive and the overall atmosphere of the restaurant was a pleasure. If I ever visit Lublin again I will be sure to return to Chapter One. ”

“ Tasting menu. I often say that if one wants to be truly impressed with a restaurant, they need to go through the vegan tasting menu. In Lublin I wouldn't trust many restaurant with vegan food, but in Chapter One I had hope and they didn't disappoint! Brilliant combinations, taste pairing. Two of my favourite dishes were an appetizer of Portobello mushroom with teriyaki sauce, kale, red pepper - genius taste pairing, to me as a non-vegan resembled barbequed pork ribs; another one from the main course - Oyster mushroom on sauerkraut with tomato sauce: to put it simply - impressive! That sauerkraut deserves applauses Another thing to mention is wine pairing. Professionally picked wines paired perfect with each dish accordingly. A nice show of a wide wine collection Last but not least, pleasant service with fluent English and great knowledge of wines, helpful throughout the night, and very attentive Thank you! ”

“ Very nice restaurant with elegantly presented dishes. Menu is intriguing but maybe not wildly interesting. I lacked the wow effect a bit. Don't know, maybe was expecting a touch more... Still, value for what you get is excellent, staff is extremely friendly, Polish choice of red wine very pleasant. Interior seems more cosy than the exterior. I would certainly come back here again... ”

“ I was so excited when I went there. And yes, dishes were delicious and looked good. But not everything was as good as I would expect. The crew was pleasant and really tried to do their best but they were not trained. They were not able to provide details about wines they have in menu. As the card is not overcrowded, the owner of the place should become true leader and develop the team in the way they satisfy demanding clients. I understand that whole industry had hard times but I guess some people will demand more from the top-notch restaurant. I was served by 2 waiters and one was not aware what I ordered with another one. So again, a bit lack of experience and coordination. The last disadvantage - I went there to taste something new. I expected testing menu promoted on the restaurant website. Unfortunately, it was not available and I heard that „maybe it will return in September”. Taking into account it is one of more expensive restaurants in Lublin, I felt a bit disappointed. Despite many times I go back to restaurants to taste more positions from the menu, I have mixed feelings about the Chapter One. I expected something special, charming, top-notch food and service. And yes, I got delicious food but wasn’t able to order what I went for, the crew was pleasant but not prepared for more demanding clients. For premium price I expect premium service and atmosphere. Here I didn’t get it. ”
