Typical Romanian Food and atmosphere, two locations in the town
Reviewed By zippy2005
We searched for a good traditional Romanian restaurant & went to this one based on the customers' reviews. What a great choice! They serve mostly traditional Romanian food but international options are available, too. Vegetarian options are available, also. The food (appetizer, main dish, and desert) was like a home cooked one and delicious & the wine list comprehensive, offering some great Romanian wines. Excellent service, too and a nice, pleasant atmosphere. Great value for the money. Highly recommended!

I'm a solo traveler and was staying nearby so this was recommended. I was there at an in-between time. Not lunch rush and not dinner rush. There were maybe 4 tables of people when I arrived. I loved the building & the many options as to where to dine. Indoors. Out on any of several patios. likely more.When I arrived, a waitress was walking away from me. I stood in the doorway waiting to let someone know I was there. I stood for quite a while. (I do think she saw me.) A waiter wizzed by. I was able to glance the food he was carrying and get an idea of a portion I wanted, but not to get that waiter's attention. A group of 5 guys who finished eating got up and stood at the counter to pay. I could tell they were regulars. I asked one of them what he prefers there. He said Goulosh, and realizing I'd not tried that yet, knew it's what I'd get. However my waiting continued. I finally broke in and asked one of those wait-people if I could sit and eat. Yes, sit anywhere. I sat at the table nearest the door and counter. I waited some more. After a little while, I waved to order. The waiter came over and I ordered. The waiter asked if I wanted bread with that. I asked if that was the common way to eat it and he said yes. So soon after I had my meal. I did really enjoy my first real Hungarian Goulash. I can't say it's the best ever as I have no comparison but I did like it. The meat was clearly good quality. It was tender. The potatoes where perfect. I loved the sauce. Upon finishing my meal, I realized this was the style of the staff -- that they let us get their attention rather than come to ask us. In ways, I like this. So when I saw a waitress I got up to ask for my bill. In the meantime, I had all the time I needed to enjoy my meal and didn't feel pushed.Thank you so much for your kind words. We really appreciate you taking the time out to share your experience with us. Hope to see you again if you're ever back in town!

We went there after a day out in Cluj.The food was absolutely great.Well cooked, great taste, we were there as a family, had three different dishes, tried them all out an I can simply say everything tasted excellent. \The staff was very polite and helpful, quick enough regarding the fact that it was a weekend night and you can't expect that your order comes at the snap of a finger,Definitely worth a visit when in Cluj.Hello dear traveler, Thank you very much for recommending us and for taking the time to write your nice thoughts about your visit to our venue.

Sat down for a quick evening bite. The service was good and friendly, but the schnitzel and wedges were below expectations - literally taken out of the freezer and cooked; I could have prepared that with stuff from the supermarket. The cocktail was good, but the place needs to up their food asap!

We went to have some delicious lamb burgers that we had other times and we really liked. I donât know what happened, if they changed the chef but the dish was disappointing: hard bread and old, reheated fries that seemed to be from the bottom of the pot, not a single whole one as size. And there were only a few tables, not a full restaurant!Thank you for your feedback and appreciation. We are sorry the food wasn´t up to expectations, we will announce or kitchen about this.We look forward to being of service to you again.

Taste of Transylvania.
Reviewed By memypassportandi
A friend and I had dinner at Zama and wanted to split the check, but they refused and got really upset that we had even dared to ask. Then we asked to see the bill so we could calculate each person's portion, and they refused to give us a copy! WTF?We had only ordered four things: they could have easily split it into two checks and let us each pay by card in FAR LESS TIME than it took us to figure out how much each person owed, go through our wallets, try to figure out if we could make change for each other, gather the money, and pay.They truly don't care about their customers. The food was fine, but I was so shaken by how rude they were, it ruined the experience.

The service was friendly. Great place for people watching as itâs in the middle of PiaÈa Unirii. Thank you for your feedback and appreciation. We are happy that you had such a good time at our place and we hope to have you back here soon.

A very cosy establishment, friendly service, and very good food although a bit pricy.Anyhow, I felt cheated, because I ordered a traditional dish : VENISON GOULASH, but I got regular beef goulash, although tasty, but even though deceiving customers, and taking them for fools, you can do only once.Pity !!
