PAPILA — Restaurant in Bucharest

Decent food, but the exotic dishes are far from the real thing and way overpriced. The place is also tiny with no intimacy. This could create the feeling you are at home were it not for the easily offended staff that smiles a lot but is not ready to be smiled back at. Tip: if they joke with you is for tips, don’t confuse the crowded home vibe and the jokes with you with them being ok for you to joke back (always remember the “easily offended staff” part if you go there)

Later Edit, caused by the reply: by telling to my friends, not me: "I can't believe he sank so low" because I made a simple joke that was too complicated for your employee, a joke I made at least twice to you (here I assume the owner, Maria) and you laughed, well by this behaviour you prove how friendly the place really is. you also prove your level of professionalism. by hanging on to your position as I can see in your reply you prove again your level of professionalism - blame the client for your unacceptable behaviour. (the waitress not laughing has nothing to do with it - sometimes humour misses; your foul talking behind someone's back has to do a lot instead...) bottom line and the most important thing for anyone interested: the food is nice but way overpriced for the tiny quantity (I was pleased at the beginning when you had entry prices, not after you doubled them). The exotic dishes are far away from what they should be, but this is common among europeans trying to make money on the "exotic...

Most over hyped restaurant I've been to this year.

My sandwich was soggy and covered in grease. I felt as if i wasn't chewing on cheese but a rubber sole. The bacon was cold and rubbery, too, and everything was covered in grease to the point that my sandwich tasted oily. The omlette was tasteless and brought nothing to the sandwich. The food was lukewarm at best and cold at worst. The peanut butter and milk drink i ordered was executed poorly, even if, in theory, it sounds interesting. The saving grace of this meal was the desert, which is simply mediocre.

The staff was friendly, which is why I gave 4 stars for service, however, I have noticed they have a tendency to be rude over the phone or online, which doesn't give them a good look as a restaurant and which I hope they will change.

On the other side, a good thing about this restaurant is definitely the atmosphere. The music isn't loud and the restaurant is quiet, which is perfect for socializing with friends or family. Moreover, they offer quite a few drinks, making it more suitable as a hang out spot instead of somewhere you go when you're hungry. However, the reason I gave the atmosphere 3 stars is because everything about the place's design, aesthetic and "vibe" seemed messy and had no cohesive thematic.

In the end I think that the worst part about this restaurant is definitely the price point of the meals. A starter and a main course is 70 lei and the deserts are between 30-40 lei for...

So what I can say about this ramen. I wait it really long time because they do ramen just in Sunday and really u need reservation. I think this is the best of the best ramen but that is not that.

1. they put u picked ginger. Whyyy???? That is not sushi. That is ramen. In authentic ramen nobody don’t used ginger
2. where is mushrooms?
3. where is the nori?????
4. pork was just boiled . Really ? Where is the beautiful color from the fire???
5. bamboo??? Do u hear about this ? Where is bamboo ???
6. sesame ? In ramen that use black sesame oil not just white sesame !!!
7. I wait it 20 mins. Really u give just 1 hour but I need to wait 20 mins to bring it to me ?
8. I order spiced. They bring me like they said “ A blend of authentic japanese spices, made in House” but that is not true. This spices u can bay in the shop.
9. eggs was very slowly marinated maybe just in soy sauce and may be was mix like 1:5 with water. I really don’t understand u think ur ramen is really good? The broth was weak. The most the cheapest chopsticks 🥢 U have vegetable ramen but u don’t have with chicken. Really vegetables ramen?? And really I don’t understand why 3 weeks on your photons the pork ramen is another then today? I was in many countries and I tried a lot of ramens but in ur house the ramen is very slow. The music is very loud. The staff is lovely. The lemonade is testy. And we order 2 hot romens they give us just 1 but in the bill was included 2...
