jgc222 is right, but parking can be a problem. Go on Wed or Sun. and you will find free additional parking next to their lot that has a doctor's office. It would seem there is more take out now, probably because the parking lot is sometimes full and a lot of customers are older now, like me. You can find close street parking on both sides Harlem. The food comes out fast, but they don't rush you. I think they don't want to slow you down because they need the parking. I've been going there for 30 years. For a surprise treat, get an order of blintzes. That is Jewish, I'm told. Other Czech places don't even know what a blintz is. It is a crepe filled with sweet cheese, a few raisins and sour cream on top.

Noted mostly for Czech foods, this restaurant can't be beat. Dinners start with a cup of soup (du jour) and end with the dessert (du jour). Excellent food, excellent service, and reasonable prices. Every time I'm in town, I make it a point to visit this restaurant. Wish I could move it down to Houston!

THE FOOD HERE IS GREAT. COFFEE AND DESSERT ARE INCLUDED VERY MODEST DINNER PRICE. I PAID $7.50 FOR A MEATLOAF. MY WIFES TILAPIA DINNER WAS $11.50. THE FOOD IS VERY FLAVORFUL.
