Good traditional food, best to go for weekday lunch, it’s a great value for 24 lei. They have live music and in the evening there are dance performances.

Fantastic place for a taste of Bucharest. The pork is amazing and the chocolate cake is to die for.

We had the mixed grill for 2 very generous and filling. Great outdoor seating and very helpful staff

Easily one of the best restaurants in Bucharest, with a great selection of food, friendly staff and a gorgeous setting.

The restaurant looks like a castle, mostly like Peles Castle and has some great Romanian food, wouldn’t be my first choice for dinner in Bucharest, but totally recommended if you’re a tourist.

Go there if you want to try traditional food in the interior of classic Romanian style. Btw, Romanian food is a bit heavy. Be ready

The restaurant is very beautiful inside but you MUST book a table as it gets extremely busy! The food is traditional Romanian, quite good, wasn't over-thrilled.

Classic place, a must visit to experience the Bucuresti belle epoque. Food is good and reasonably priced. Service is fast. 1 litres og beer and Strauss.

Good for classical Romanian dishes. Great folkloric dancing atmosphere for tourists, definitely good beers 🍻

Such an experience. We went for Breakfast and it was good and fair. They say it is usually very busy during lunch and dinner though during breakfast, it was empty
Mary KoOctober 28, 2016
Average service. Good food. Fantastic ambience. Worth going for the experience alone. Get a table in the main dining area or upstairs.

Amazing traditional food; just ask the waitress what to bring. Or observe what others are eating and follow them :)

Chicken legs with tomatos and garlic sauce and papanas was quite delicious. This time service was faster than usual. The ambiance and dance show were good except noise. Still a "must see"
Mihnea MiculescuJuly 25, 2016
The go-to eating establishment if you're visiting Romania for the first time. Amazing food, nice staff, crazily authentic decor.
Takis KarvelisMarch 5, 2013
Very noisy and they give you the impression that you delay eating and you keep the table from the next to come .... but is a must and you must visit once. Great house beer by the way :)
CarmenApril 24, 2017
"mititei", and "bulete de cascaval" (cheese balls). The atmosphere is awesome, the food and beer good! Dont miss the place!
M RJuly 13, 2018
Very special atmosphere, I think must place for tourists!
InesFebruary 23, 2023
A must when visiting Bucharest. Good food, nice atmosphere, fair price. Come hungry. Reservation needed.
Debby MosseveldOctober 19, 2013
Sarmalute in foi de vita servite cu mamaliguta, smantana si ardei iute; mixed minced meat rolled in cabbage served with polenta, sour cream and chili pepper is really great!!
Jason Baughman-OpricăMay 2, 2017
Awesome beer place in the old town with a huge menu and decently priced (local) brews. Get the house beer!
Kristy TsantakouJune 20, 2015
Awesome food, try the 'knights special' plus beans soup and for desert profiteroles and creamy coffee.
Crudu AdinaFebruary 15, 2016
The ambience is great! Looks like a museum at the ground level and is so Boheme!!! However, the food quality was way low for the way it looks and contradictory with the outstanding service.
victoria trueApril 19, 2016
Everything is delicious. The building is gorgeous. The mood is vibrant and the dancing and singing pushes it over the top.
Georgiana HuibanMay 20, 2017
The restaurant is probably the most beautiful in Bucharest. The food is also very good. The service however is very slow, it is clear that they are overwhelmed, hence long waiting times for everything
Maria K!August 29, 2018
Great mititei and pork soup served in a bread bowl!
Teresa RodríguezApril 7, 2016
Try daily menu, 5 dishes gotta reasonable price and service is good. Soups are very tasty
Jon-Luke LourensMay 29, 2011
Love the ambiance especially when they have a live violinist... The food is good to with large portions for reasonable prices. The Doughnuts with sour cream and jam for dessert are huge and amazing!
Andrzej KorkusSeptember 28, 2018
Great interior, poor food&service
Vasso ✈✈✈February 20, 2019
Excellent restaurant. You have to make a reservation. The food is excellent! With live music and dancers! Love it!!!
Andreas Orpheas MakosJuly 3, 2017
The food was great, the atmosphere was amazing and the prices were relatively low. I recommend it for a traditional Romanian experience!
Iren LazarovaAugust 18, 2016
Typical romanian restaurant with authentic cuisine and atmosphere. Good for beer lovers. Highly recommend!
SvyatoslavAugust 14, 2018
Good national dishes, espesially traditional soups. Awful salads! Salad with tuna had spoiled ingredients (olives). Service-nothing special, as in regular cafe. Prices higher then in better restorants
Javier Perlado UserosOctober 21, 2016
Genuine place! Must visit it! Cheap full menu with great beer. Beautiful place in the city center. Worth it.
Volkan TuranOctober 8, 2018
Rich menu and great interior ambiance. Avoid meat dishes, vegetable options are better. Local beer is not that great. Soup and bread were great.
Noga BlagodarskySeptember 14, 2014
If you're in hurry don't go there! The service is extremely slooow😱😴 The food is simple but tasty, homemade beer is very good. If you still have time to wait order a papanash, a local dessert
Dünya YurdakulNovember 16, 2016
Great historical place, you should definitely try something in this restaurant, normal prices, very famous place, helpful staff.

Interior architecture is beautiful it's a struggle to decide to sit inside or outside or downstairs all are great options
AlexApril 2, 2019
All time classic, good food, great beer, OKish service, interesting ambiance and great location close to all the Old City bars
Grumpy NerdMarch 12, 2015
Good food and freshly made lemonades. Better reserve a table a couple of days upfront if you want to go there in the evening.
muttibeyJanuary 23, 2023
Amazing Romanian restaurant with impressive architecture and tasty food.
Laura BurlacuJanuary 20, 2015
Delicious on so many levels, great atmosphere to go with the food and competent staff.
Michael BrazitikosJanuary 30, 2017
Looks traditional, right in the middle of the old city. Food is of medium quality and expensive. It's definately a tourist spot. Best option is to visit it just for coffee.
NesJanuary 24, 2018
Come here to have a beer and watch the shows. The food has nothing special. The famous dessert Papanaşi is worth trying
Harry RobertsSeptember 30, 2014
Great, traditional Romanian food. Fascinating building, great vibe. The service is good, but it gets very busy; expect a short wait.
ben benobiJuly 31, 2015
Don't miss this amazing place. Always crowded but worth the wait
Dmitry MatveevSeptember 7, 2014
Foods are good. Portions are great. But we saw like all waiters made fake beer foam to all sort of non-bottle beer. It's a pity.
