Strongly recommend.
Unfortunately it wasn’t very nice.
Arrived on time.
Let me start with the aubergine salad which I ordered after seeing photos online and from others mentioning how good it was. It was unpleasantly Smokey and was also really strong flavoured with the smoke. The Smokey flavour itself wasn’t particularly nice and I don’t think it was nice with the aubergine.
Tripe soup - if you like tripe you’ll like this as the buttery, creamy, garlicky liquid was nice and tasty but after eating half a small to medium bowl I couldn’t finish it. The tripe has a very weird texture and tastes awful, there’s no way getting around it.
The chicken schnitzel was nice, a bit in the thin and small side but not bad. Not fantastic but not bad.
The Romanian grilled meat rolls at first was nice but then after a couple the strong burnt grill marks became so overpowering I couldn’t finish it. It also had an unpleasant soft but bouncy texture. Not nice. It tasted sour also somehow Because of the burnt grill marks. Never tasted grilled meat like that before.
Cheese doughnut with jam and cream also wasn’t nice. The dough tasted unpleasant and had a raw kind of taste to it. Texture wasn’t great but not bad. Jam was ok although I’ve had better. Cream was fine. Cheese not bad. Mellow enough. Not too overpowering for the sweet desert.
French fries arrived completely soggy but were nice and tasty although looked brown and burnt. They were nice.
Bread was a roll which helped with the tripe.
Overall I knew Romanian food was unusual but honestly i won’t be ordering again.
I got over 46 happy people
Big party, big event
MARIA, the best, best prices and amazing food, I will be back ASAP
I strongly recommend to everyone
Ordered fried wings and garlic bread as two starters. The wings were frozen from aldi or lidl , the garlic sauce was old out of a bottle £8.70. The garlic bread was 5 slices of a dinner roll with some grated cheese and a smidgen of ham as a garnish £8.50
I ask for lamb chops as my main to my. surprise the owner suggested try the Romanian meat rolls (Iceland kebab rolls) frozen and probably microwaved with soggy fries £11.80
My wife managed to get the lamb chops (probably all they had in before tried to oder them). They were OK but left an after taste 3 hrs later
My son a small size 8 ordered spaghetti they never sold a child size but gave a child size £10.80. It was so disgusting he refused point blank to eat it. I'm not exaggerating when I tasted it I spat it into the paper napkin they supplied. I was not wanting to argue or embarrass my family so I took it on the chin and asked for the bill. £75.45. I has hurt me so much it was a special night out and ended up tacky even I can plate up to at least make it look pretty. I do not know if the reviews are for the weekend and during the week they can't afford a chef . The reviews do not reflect the night we had and I feel totally robbed and worst still memories lost!! I beg you stay away
To the owners may you suffer years of drought for robbing me silly!!!
