This is a great expense, one that could be tried by anyone. There are some great choices available for starters, soups or mains and desserts, this place truly has something for everyone. From the outside it looks like a hotel lobby restaurant or something you'd find in central London. Inside is a nice looking banquet hall. The food is delicious and consistent, I've had 3 courses that I was equally pleased and impressed by. My favourite was ciorba de burta (tripe soup), although the sarmale (stuffed cabbage) was also really tasty. Don't forget about papanasi (doughnuts?). 9/10 would go again, thoroughly recommended.

We went here for a Christening. It was a lovely place and had such a lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and the waiter was just amazing at serving the food while weaving through the kids dancing! Food was delicious

It's a very nice Romanian restaurant. If you are not from Romania and you want to try Romanian dishes, I do recommend this restaurant. Nice atmosphere, food, very nice red wine. Also, there is live music too, not always but you can ask them when. You have to book in advance if you want to go, special for the weekend's days.

Very nice atmosphere , clean and very welcome staff! We just have a simple request this traditional dessert was actually not hot and is not having the same taste cold and the papanasi that we do have in Romanian are having more cheese this are more like donuts; please chef can u just add more cheese and transform the donuts in papanasi

Absolutely fantastic, one of the best dining experiences you can have in London if you want to try some Romanian cuisine! I don't understand why people here will leave a bad review just because the staff was... Just rate the food, not your inability to get a reservation or handle a conversation/order with a waiter! I have been there many times and love the food! Also got food delivered/picked up if the restaurant was busy with some events. Keep up the good work guys!

Amazing Romanian Experience in London! If you're looking for authentic Romanian food in London, this place is an absolute gem! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm hospitality that made us feel right at home. The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and always ready to recommend the best dishes. The food was simply outstanding—fresh, flavorful, and truly authentic. We tried mici, sarmale, and ciorba de burta, and every bite took us straight to Romania. The portions were generous, and the quality of the ingredients was top-notch. Beyond the amazing food, this restaurant knows how to throw a party! We attended various special events here, like Christenings, Christmas, Easter and the most recent one, organised on 8th March for International Women Day. The atmosphere was electric—live music offered by the amazing Dj Valtin, great vibes, and an unforgettable experience. Whether you're coming for a casual dinner or looking to celebrate a special occasion, this is the perfect spot. Highly recommend for anyone craving traditional Romanian cuisine and a fantastic night out. We’ll definitely be back soon as I can’t wait for the Easter event!!
