First time at the newly opened Ahoj. The menu was innovative ... a fusion of varied European influences on traditional Czech dishes. Our party tried a number of these, and they were, without exception, excellent. The wait staff were very friendly and attentive ... without being in your face. Prices quite reasonable for the quality offered. Overall, a great experience! Wishing the team there every success with the restaurant for the future.
