The floor-to-ceiling windows offer a great city panorama, allowing you to feast eyes on the sea line below. As day turns night, the windows transform into a unique canvas, blending the reflection of the bustling kitchen with the twinkling lights of the city, creating a special  visual experience.

The food is a delightful journey through flavors and textures. Their classic soup is a standout taste. The menu showcases a range of well-executed dishes that highlight both local and international cuisines.

The only misstep is perhaps the Groseran risotto. While creative, the green peas didn't quite manage to balance the strong cheese flavor, leaving the dish slightly out of harmony. Nevertheless, this small imperfection was easily overshadowed by the overall quality of menu.

What we really liked was the impeccable service. The staff's attention to detail and genuine care for guests' satisfaction elevate the experience from merely a meal to a memorable event.

In conclusion, with its stunning views, excellent cuisine, and outstanding service, Arco was for us the best restaurant in Gdańsk.

A restaurant with a beautiful panoramic view, excellent service, and terrible food.

We ordered a set menu with 10 items, 8 of which were dreadful—these cannot even be called dishes; they were just a mix of incompatible ingredients. For example, the tartare left a distinct aftertaste of mold, although when eating the ingredients separately, this was not the case. It takes a “remarkable” skill to ruin a product this way.

Out of the 10 dishes, only the soup and meat were edible. Even then, the garnish and sauce for the meat were utterly uninspired.

This is the most disgusting food I have ever eaten.

During our short trip to Gdańsk, my partner and I decided to visit Arco by Perez, drawn in by its Michelin star—a rare accolade for a city of this size. Naturally, our expectations were high.

Let’s start with the positives. The wine selection was excellent, the sommelier was knowledgeable, and the bread was delightful. Even the details like the cutlery, especially the custom-made steak knives, were impressive. Interestingly, most of these highlights had little to do with the actual food.

As for the food itself? It wasn’t bad—it was decent. But here’s the problem: after just a few days, I can’t recall a single standout dish. Nothing about the meal left a lasting impression.

Now, the not-so-great parts. The hostess who greeted us downstairs seemed visibly unhappy—either with her job or perhaps with us; hard to say. Our first waiter forgot the ice we requested for our sparkling water, and it took another staff member to finally bring it. To top it off, there was someone’s hair folded into a warm towel.

I wanted this to be a Michelin-star-level experience, but unfortunately, it fell short.

The waitress hit me on the head with a tray and did not apologize.  The waiters do not offer to add water to your glass, so you had to go to the restaurant and search  for water by yourself. The waiters forgot to put a knife for me to my ordered  duck.  They didn't ask if they can to take away the food, they just took the croquettes and went away with the food!!!  The waitress threw a napkin on the floor and did not bring a new one for my friend there was nothing to wipe her mouth with. And the main thing was that the table was ordered in advance (they took the money to confirm the order), we arrived on time, and our table, which we ordered, was given to others.  For the "service" that we did not have, we were forced to pay a tip.  For all the shortcomings, the manager said sorry and went away he was not interested in listening to customers.
I had higher expectations from such an expensive restaurant...

Amazing experience. In my opinion it is the best fine dining restaurant in Poland among those which I have visited.

I tried ‘20 ideas’ tasting menu and it was the first time I could easily taste and enjoy all served dishes and not being overstuffed in this type of restaurant.

Very diverse and flavorful dishes. My favorite were truffle risotto, green peas, Dover sole and blue lobster.

Above and beyond, it is located on the 33rd floor with the amazing view on the city. The place is very modern and splendid.

I was positively surprised with the very warm welcome from the chef and his whole team from the open kitchen when I came in. This was very nice.

Wishing them all the best!
