Get up early to do touristy stuff, looking at the castle and the main square before the massive rush (don't bother with wenceslaus square its a bit rubbish). Avoid any club where you can see anyone with a "pub crawl" tshirt on.
As for eating, i stayed in Zizkov a bit out of the main town and the restaurants around there were cheap and really nice, had the best steak ive ever had in one of them.

I wanted to try this when I was in Prague but didn't because they were closed and I didn't get the chance to go back. I don't know if it's good, the picture makes me hungry though.

Of course you have to see the city at night.

As far as food is concerned, I was there during a local food festival so I did not try the restaurants. Their goulash is a lot different from Hungary. I've had roast pork and sausage with cabbage, sauerkraut, and potato. It was so good! They eat a lot of cabbage so I had a lot of dishes with it and meat/dumplings added. I stayed at the end of Vysehrad (Praha 2) bordering Praha 1, about 15 minutes walk from Old Town. Praha 2 was less touristy and more local friendly. Most major streets where the metro stops were lined with restaurants. Most, if not all, had happy hour. I cannot tell you how the nightlife was because I didn't go out dancing (I started to get sick). I have highlights of my trip written on my journal but I'm out of town for another week.
