    Service not existent, they put the food and drinks on the table, apart from that they're not very helpful. No English Menu. We kind of had the feeling that they wanted us to leave. Sunday evening 9 o'clock. The platter for 2 was in parts okay, but some of these sauces tasted like they just consist of fat. Quite pricey for the service and the food they offer. In the end I have to admit that last reviews are totally right.

    Tasty food in a beautiful location. We loved the seafood platter - it’s marked as an appetiser but it’s a huge portion. The seafood pasta was good too Crowded in the weekend, it’s best to make a reservation.

    Most of the food was pretty much tasteless, no aroma. The shells for example had no garlic and hadn't been cooked with wine either. They were plain and simple. That was disappointing, but the bread and the fish șalău was good. All in all the prices are not worth the food. One of our waiters was nice, the view was great and I really liked the atmosphere. They behave respectful towards animals, which I think is important to mention. The guests aren't loud and there is no music to silence the melody of the waves of the sea and the seagulls. It's a nice place to relax and have a drink, but certainly not to eat seafood. Edit: first gave three stars, but because of the terrible stomach aches, I had after eating the dishes here, I leave this review with two stars. Two stars I give for its location and drinks. I was very thirsty and it was one of my first days at the beach. That counts something I guess.

    I can only recommend this place for the food they serve, which is excellent, by all means. Congratulations to the cook. Unfortunately, the service quality is abysmal. We were basically ignored from the first order to the bill, the serving was extremely clumsy and slow, the table was not even prepared for new clients like the other tables were. Overall, if you are a patient person, you can enjoy some great food here.

    Very good food and prices are reasonable. Service was excellent nothing to complain about, even if we want to. Located on the beach, it's a very relaxing place. See you next summer! Thank you!

    Good food, nice service, but difficult position plus a lot of mosquito!! No way to see the beautiful sunset... The restaurant building is placed in front of the nice terrace :( Please reversely position the parking lot with the terrace!!

    If you are a fish lover this is a great place to have fish broth, but the menu is limited in the sense that they don’t have everything they offer in the menu. If you are a vegetarian you can get a simple lettuce and lemon salad (which is nice, but slightly overpriced) and some potatoes ( but they all contain butter so no vegan options really. The pork was also overpriced and the portions were quite small and not in line with the cost. I had a Pirate’s Pear which was nice. The service can definitely be improved, it felt like we were rushed out as the waiters (very young and quite un-trained in my opinion ) cleared up the plates while we were still having food so it felt quite odd to the point we stopped eating so they could clear the whole table. The wine was nice and so the location. If you are a pet lover this is a good place as there were about 4 cats, with some climbing the tables ( not my cup of tea). I would not return, unless for a glass of wine , but that’s it.

    Very nice dish experience when it comes to Black Sea kitchen. Taste, good looking dishes and an overwhelming beach by night! By all means please try the Sneakers cake! I’m a big fan of choko, peanuts, caramel and so I’ ve loved it! We came back again after one year. Same experience, wonderful kitchen, excellent Sneakers! I love this place!

    Had mussels and cat fish ( Vlad’s recommendation, the waiter, after asking what is the catch of the day and what he’s recommending). Really good food, nice view and attentive staff. They don’t have a good selection of deserts, but who cares. Food was ready fast.

😠 The food quality is really bad, and the servers look entirely clueless. Also lied about when they actually start serving food.

😐 We've been there when it was overcrowded in the saturday's evening. Because of a lot of orders pizza was baking longer than 30 minutes. We didn't wait for the main courses and have left after 1 hour of waiting them. Pizza was tasty.

👍👍 2017: Great location. Fantastic and fresh food. 2023: Came back and we were more than suprised to see the new spectacular design of the restaurant. The food was excellent then but now is more than that. The new photos will speak for themselves. Best fish and sea food on the romanian sea side.
