- Bruno GremezJuly 18, 2018This restaurant offers traditional Romanian cuisine in a formidable setting: a wonderful fin-de-siecle building in the historical center of Bucharest. A group of gypsies plays music every evening.
- Evangelos ZJanuary 12, 2017Very nice architecture, very traditional. Food was good enough the only negative would be the service. The staff was very quick and efficient, but obviously tired enough to present a smile to us..
- Sam LopezJuly 12, 2017This is where all tourists go in Old Town. It has good food, music, and dancers. It's a busy, busy place. it's not the kind of place for a quiet conversation.
