Cozy, boutique restaurant in the very heart of Sofia. The restaurant is located in a 3-floor house with a sunny and quite front garden. The menu is short, but each meal is carefully selected to meet the highest expectations for taste, creativity and prese

This was our second visit to Aubergine and can’t recommend it highly enough.We started with the houmous selection with bread. Very generous portions and the waitress brought us extra bread.For our main course I had the ribs and my partner had pork cheeks. Both were delicious. The generous portion of cheeks were succulent and melt in the mouth.The ribs were very meaty, very tasty and again melt in the mouth.It is a quirky building with lots of little rooms and an outside area. The rooms are nicely decorated in a modern style.We were eating early evening, they fitted us in. You would normally need to book a table as it seems very popular.In twelve years of visiting Bulgaria we have had some loverly meals but Aubergine been our favourite so far.Highly recommended!!

Went there for lunch today and ordered from the regular (not daily lunch) menu. I ordered burrata with chanterelle. But I received burrata with ordinary mushrooms. The waitress didn't even bother to ask me whether i would confirm the order with changed ingredients. the price was the same. The starter was fine, but this not what you might expect from this restaurant.

Read some reviews and wanted to try Daro. Had breakfast there. First of all, hats off to the owner/chef for his friendliness. He makes it special with his suggestions what you should eat based on your mood.Secondly, the food is amazing. Attention to details. One order at a time.If I had more days in Sofia, would visit and try other things. Thank you very much for the kind words! Glad we did not disappoint :) Next time have some more time and come again :)
