Came for the beer, stayed for the service. Iulian knew his stuff, pointed me to a couple of new brews. Solid spot if you&#39;re into trying something different. Place was a bit loud later in the evening, but whatever. Worth stopping by if you&#39;re in the area.

The Veggie TanTan ramen is the reason I keep returning. Broth&rsquo;s creamy, a little spicy, deep umami flavor I still can&rsquo;t pin down. Portion&rsquo;s decent for the price. Service was quick on a busy evening, no complaints. Just wish they had a bit more seating, but that&rsquo;s minor.

The soups here are always fresh, taste homemade, and they switch up the selection daily. The lady running the place is genuinely kind and welcoming. I sat near the window and the light was nice, though the chairs are a bit hard after a while. Still, a solid spot for a quiet lunch.

Nice spot by the lake in Carol Park, mititei were really good. Service a bit slow but the terrace makes it worth it.

Solid cocktails, that&rsquo;s for sure. Food was tasty but portions are on the smaller side. Rooftop had a chill vibe, easy to hang around for a while.

The coconut eclair was good, no lie. But honestly, for that price, I expected a bit more size. It&#39;s pretty, sure, but I left still a little hungry.

Stopped by for a quick coffee, ended up chilling way longer than I meant to. Flat white was solid, hit the spot. Music was mellow, not too loud. The swing seats are a nice touch, kinda fun. Good spot if you just wanna grab a coffee and not be rushed out the door.

Dinner hit the spot &mdash; the waitress actually remembered our order without writing it down. Food came out quick and hot. Just the seating felt a bit cramped, but I&#39;d still come back.

Went for the Sunday ramen and honestly the duck option was the highlight&mdash;rich broth, proper noodles. It&#39;s a bit pricey and you definitely need to book ahead, but for a treat it hits the spot. Just wish the portions were slightly bigger. Nice little spot if you&#39;re craving something hearty.

The terrace is lovely when it&#39;s not too windy. Shrimp saganaki was spot on, and the young wine we chose went really well with it. Nice spot for a relaxed evening.

The garden seating is the main draw here, honestly. Food was good, but the portions felt a bit small for what you pay. Nice spot to escape the noise for a bit, though.

The outdoor seating here is really something when the weather plays along. We grabbed a table outside and it just felt right. Food was fresh, the flavors were there. Service was professional, not hovering over us. Only thing is they shut the terrace down once it gets chilly, which is a bit of a shame. Still, solid spot for Romanian classics in the center.

The ram pastrami was a bit chewy, but the fish dish totally made up for it. Menu feels creative with fresh, local ingredients. Cheese pie for dessert was the winner though 🍰

The mixed grill is the way to go here. Everything came out juicy, well-seasoned, no complaints. I also tried the steak on the hot stone, that was the highlight for me. Place was busy but we got our food quick. Would come back for that steak alone.

Came here for a quick breakfast and honestly the coffee was the highlight ☕ food was good too but portions are kinda small, especially if you&#39;re hungry. Cute little place though, easy to hang around with friends for a bit. I&#39;d go back if I&#39;m in the area again.

Stopped by for a late lunch&mdash;the sarmale were solid, exactly what I needed. Outdoor seating on Kiseleff is a nice touch. Wish they had a better wine list to go with it, though.

The terrace is nice, but the smoke from other tables really gets to you if you don&rsquo;t smoke. The food itself was decent, fresh enough, though I wish there were more veggie options. Service was fine, prices okay for what you get. Just wish the air was cleaner while eating.

The fried ice cream here is the real deal. Crunchy outside, cold inside, and they don&#39;t drown it in syrup. Had the grilled pork too, pretty solid. Portions are big enough that I didn&#39;t need a starter. Place gets busy on weekends, but the food came out quick enough. I&#39;d come back just for that dessert.

The cocktails are pretty creative, some were a bit too sweet for me though. They told us upfront the pizza was frozen, which I actually appreciated. Desserts looked really fancy but we were too full to try them. Maybe next time I&#39;ll skip the sweet drinks and go straight for something else.

Autumn has officially arrived, yet I refuse to give up on the magic of sunny days. 🌿☀️​Since it was my birthday, I was treated to a leisurely lunch on the terrace at E3 by Entourage  &mdash; a true urban oasis where lush greenery and exotic decor make you forget, even if just for a few hours, that you are in the heart of the city. It remains one of my absolute favorite spots in Bucharest, tucked away in one of the capital&#39;s most vibrant, cosmopolitan neighborhoods.​We started with a perfectly balanced, refreshing Aperol Spritz, followed by their legendary tomato soup &mdash; simply fabulous &mdash;, while the star of the table was their famous seed-crusted schnitzel. It is so generously sized that it practically begs to be shared, and the flavor is sensational! We had to save dessert for next time, as there was simply no room left.​The atmosphere captures that effortless, relaxed elegance &mdash; ideal for those moments when you want to make summer last just a little longer. 🍹✨​📍 My recommendation for a stylish weekend in Bucharest &mdash; perfect as well for an evening with great music, creative cocktails, and wonderful company.

Food&#39;s solid, real Chinese flavors. Terrace in the back is a nice touch. Got a bit of cooking smell inside though.

The pasta was creamy and the portion felt right for the price. Chicken with gorgonzola was surprisingly good too. Place gets busy, but the service kept up fine.

Portions were solid for the price, honestly. Got the lake view table and the food did the job. Not fancy, but you won&#39;t leave hungry. 👍

Classic spot, proper old-school bar vibe. Cocktails were solid, bartender knew what he was doing. Place is small but that&#39;s part of the charm.
