About
A Taste Inspired by the Heart
Maitrea restaurant is located in a magical alley of Týnská, right by the heart of Prague, the Old Town Square. Since the year 2009, our international team is dedicated to exploring tastes inspired by the heart. We believe that life is fueled by a passion for development and curiosity about its infinite possibilities. This philosophy for life is our signature, clear in the vegetarian cuisine and in symbiosis with the entire space. The interior is designed in the style of Feng Shui, either as a pleasant backdrop to your evening or as an experience of its own.
Both floors of our restaurant are filled with magical nooks with two water fountains, a fireplace, live flowers, and a statue of Buddha. The interior is finished with massive oak wood, natural colors, marble in the fountains, and lamps from layered silk. Whichever spot you choose, either during a work lunch, romantic dinner, or family celebration, your visit to the Restaurant Maitrea will be inspired by the heart.

Our Vision
The vision of our sister restaurant Clear Head with its lightness of health is connected to our house of personal development, where the topic is our hearts. “Maitrea” in translation stands for “loving kindness” and is one of the thousand names for Buddha. We believe that a clear head can be only had by someone who acts in love. Therefore, we wanted to explore tastes inspired by the heart, vegetarian cuisine, which is just as in the Clear Head a complex and joyous experience. Feng Shui, philosophy with which our interior is created, takes into consideration invisible forces that affect our lives. We focus on our food being prepared from the best ingredients, but also to be cooked with respect to the responsibility that our work entails. We believe that the energy of food is shaped by the attitude of people preparing it.
Come explore tastes inspired by the heart.
