About the place

The restaurant seats 60, in a high-ceilinged room with reclaimed old timber and windows on three sides facing the beech forest. From October to April a wood fire burns. The menu changes four times a year; the website mentions slow-cooked sarmale (cabbage rolls), soups soured with borș and polenta with sheep's cheese.

The cellar holds more than 80 labels from all of Romania's wine regions. The restaurant also takes outside guests, but only with a booking made at least a day ahead.
