Friendly staff, lots of options on the menu. Place feels comfy whether you eat in or grab something to go.

Stopped by for a quick one and ended up staying longer than planned. That Bavarian setup is pretty cool, real beer house feel. Good spot to just sit back and watch the match, or chat with the lads. Nothing fancy, but it does the job. Wouldn&#39;t mind coming back when there&#39;s a bigger game on.

The El Sheik shrimps are the reason I keep coming back here. So fresh, nicely spiced, and the portion felt generous for the price. The rest of the Lebanese menu is solid too, but honestly, those shrimps stole the show for me. Cozy little place, nothing fancy, but it works.

Came for breakfast, eggs Benedict with salmon were spot on. Also had the Placinta Dobrogeana &mdash; nice local touch. Service was attentive, no complaints there. Solid spot if you&#39;re in the area.

We ordered the ribeye medium-rare and it came out spot on, really juicy. The parmesan garlic fries were solid too, crispy and not soggy. Andreea took care of us, she was friendly and fast. Only thing, the place got a bit loud later in the evening. But the steak alone makes me want to come back.

The patio out back is nice, but honestly the house cake is where it&#39;s at. Huge slice for the price, could easily split it between two people. We ordered a few other things too, but that cake was the real winner. Felt like I got my money&#39;s worth just on that alone.

The pork belly was the only thing I really cared about. Cooked right, crispy skin, meat fell apart. The sauce was a bit sweet for my taste but worked. Portions are fair, nothing crazy. For what they charge, I&#39;d say the food does the talking, just don&#39;t expect to be blown away.

Great local wine bar with a friendly staff. Dani&#39;s recommendations were spot on, tried their own white wine and ended up trying two more.

Third time here and the nachos still hit the spot. Burger on brioche was solid too. Place was a bit loud but the vibe kept me around.

Tried the Master Rib Eye with truffle mashed potatoes&mdash;the chimichurri really made it pop. House red was solid too. Wish the Frenchies had a bit more salt, but overall a good first visit.

Decent little place for a casual dinner. Had the pasta and a glass of red wine &ndash; both were fine, nothing fancy but satisfying. Staff was friendly enough, didn&#39;t hover. It&#39;s a bit on the quieter side, which I liked. Prices are fair for what you get. Wouldn&#39;t mind coming back if I&#39;m in the area.

The carbonara was solid &mdash; creamy, not too heavy, and the portion felt right for the price. Our waitress was chatty in a good way, kept things moving without hovering. Desserts looked unreal but I was too full to try one. Maybe next time. Place had a nice hum to it, not too loud, just alive.

The mixed grill here is the real deal. Fish was cooked just right, still juicy in the middle. Chef clearly knows what they&#39;re doing with seafood. Service was there when we needed it but didn&#39;t hover. Solid spot if you want a chill dinner without any fuss.

Stopped by for a quick lunch. Got the grilled pork and cabbage, simple but tasty. Portion was decent for the price, can&#39;t complain. Place was busy but I didn&#39;t wait long. Staff were polite, nothing fancy. Solid spot if you&#39;re in the area and want a no-fuss meal.

The English breakfast never misses &mdash; solid every single time. Caught a sunny morning on the terrace, and it just hit right. Service was on point too.

Stepping into this place feels like a time warp. Loved the old-school vibe, though service was a bit stiff.

The pizza was solid&mdash;crispy crust, decent toppings. Cocktails were good too. Waiter spoke English well, made the night a bit more fun. Prices are fair for what you get.

Coffee&rsquo;s hit or miss here&mdash;one day it&rsquo;s decent, next it&rsquo;s a bit sour. But the room&rsquo;s always quiet and pleasant, so I still come for the vibe. Good enough for getting some work done without distractions.

The pork belly here is the real deal. Crispy skin, soft meat, and that garlic sauce on the side just works. Had it with the polenta, which soaked up all the juices nicely. Portion is decent for the price. I&#39;d skip the sides though, they&#39;re pretty plain. Came here twice already, and the meat was consistent both times.

Stumbled on this place and loved the vintage vibe&mdash;old photos and random objects everywhere. Felt like stepping into someone&#39;s cozy living room. Had a really good cup of coffee, just sat there for a while. Maybe a bit quiet for some, but I liked it. Definitely coming back when I need a break.

Nice terrace for a drink, much quieter than the rest of the mall. The spicy home fries were good, just wish the burger came with them.

Been coming here for a while now, and the quality never drops. The salsiccia tagliatelle is the one I keep going back for&mdash;pasta cooked right, sausage has a nice kick. Fresh bowls are solid too, not just the pizza. Staff remembers you, which is nice. Only thing is it gets busy around dinner, so you might wait a bit for a table.

We stopped by for a glass of wine and ended up staying longer than planned. The French wines are really smooth, and the food matched nicely. They had a live concert that evening, which was a nice touch. Only thing&mdash;the seating near the window is a bit tight, but it didn&#39;t bother us much. A good spot if you want a relaxed evening without fuss.

The bread with that butter was a nice start. Pumpkin soup was good but a bit too thick for me. Prawns were fresh, though the sauce felt heavy. Tarte tatin was soft, not much crunch, but I still finished it.

The shisha and the music really set the vibe here&mdash;honestly felt like I was back in Istanbul for a second. The decor is super atmospheric too. I mostly came for the grilled meats and they didn&rsquo;t disappoint, especially the lamb chops. Just wish the portions were a bit bigger for the price. Still, a nice spot for a chill evening.
