This place is promising but could deliver a better experience. My thoughts below are not necessarily criticism but more of observations to help the management improve their customer vibe. Pros I like the decor style, quite earthy-boho chic- organic they made a good use of the space friendly waitress Cons Music: I was expecting music to match the style of the place, maybe something jazzy, chill, lounge. Instead it was loud techno. I am a techno fan but not when I want to have dinner with my friends and want to hear each other speak. It felt like a club, so it’s inappropriate ambiance. Food: I had some high hopes here. However, the salmon with fennel purée was a bit disappointing. It came as a big chunk isolated on a large plate that looked boring and surrounded by a watery purée. I needed a spoon not a fork or some bread to mop. Alternatively, some veggies or rice/ quinoa/ whatever to make the eating experience more delightful. I basically ate some expensive piece of salmon with something green on top. We also got a chicken liver pate as a starter which was tasty but quite soft. Our next dish was the pasta with chicken and pine seeds. This was yummy and nicely presented. I must say that later that evening I felt a bit nauseous, but this could be only my personal experience. Heat: the heat was pumped from under my seat and was way too much, it was not enjoyable to eat. Just one waitress/ waiter. She was alone in serving the whole space and I think sometimes she needed help. But this is a medium con remark. Slippery entrance stairs and lack of accessibility for disabled people. There was snow outside and the stairs to enter the restaurant were incredibly abrupt and slippery. Customers from the restaurant were helping each other up and down the stairs. I suggest they place some sort of material on top to avoid someone falling. And a ramp for people with disabilities or push chairs. It shouldn’t be exclusive to people that don’t need extra help. Lighting: I loved the lamp shades and bulbs but they were a bit bright, especially the wall mounted ones with no shades. The vibe could be more soothing with less bright side lights.
All in all, I feel that this place could have potential of becoming top notch if remarks above are...

Read moreWe went for a birthday dinner with fairly low expectations, yet we still left disappointed. Each of us ordered different dishes, and while the menu listed noodles at 28 lei, there was an unexpected extra charge for the protein choice. This wasn’t clearly communicated when ordering, and it only became apparent when we saw the bill.
The restaurant itself is nicely decorated, but the food quality didn’t match the menu descriptions. The spicy noodles were underwhelming, and the beef I paid extra for was nothing like the picture—it was supposed to be thinly sliced but instead came in irregular, chunky pieces with lots of gristle, making it quite unpleasant. The sushi was decent, but nothing memorable.
Service was also lacking. The waitstaff were not particularly attentive, though they were polite when we asked them to put candles on a dessert for the birthday celebration.
The final disappointment was seeing the additional charge on the bill, even after pointing out that the dish was not as advertised. I want to emphasize that my expectations were only for the food to match the menu photos, not for anything extraordinary. Unfortunately, that was not the case, and I wouldn’t recommend this place.
P.S. I’ve added pictures from the menu to show how the extra costs are not clearly marked in any way. Unfortunately, I didn’t take photos of the noodles, but if I had known they would still charge me extra after I pointed out that the dish didn’t match their own menu images, I definitely would have. Really disappointing experience with this...
