The unique décor truly makes it an experience worth trying. The wagon has all the necessary facilities, including air conditioning. Unfortunately, it’s not very well ventilated, and there’s a noticeable smell of food.
The food was average in terms of taste.
I tried the duck with mashed potatoes – it was very good – 8.8/10 ✅ The Bolognese pasta – weak, seems to be made with store-bought sauce, like the kind from a jar – 5/10 ❌ The “Vagon Chicken” – it was quite decent, I’d rate it 7.5/10 ☑️
