    (Translated by Google) Totally unprofessional staff, outside were all free tables, they put me at a table inside, right in the middle, being terribly hot I asked for a table outside, they refused me on the grounds that all are reserved. This is 20 minutes away when another customer comes, without a reservation sitting at the 'reserved' tables. What can I say?? (Original) Personal total neprofesionalism, afara erau toate mesele elibere, m-au așezat la o masa înăuntru, fix în mijloc, fiind teribil de cald am cerut o masa afara,,m-au refuzat pe motivul ca toate sunt rezervate. Asta la 20 de minute distanta venind un alt client,fără rezervare așezândul chiar la mesele 'rezervate'. Ce sa mai zic??

    (Translated by Google) I went to this restaurant and drank a 0.33 bear beer that has expired for 30 days. Poor food I do not recommend (Original) Am fost la acest restauratnt si am consumat o bere ursus 0,33 care este expirata de 30 de zile deja fata care nea servut a luat sticla si a plecat fara nici macar scuze si ma servit cu alta Mancare jalnica Nu recomand

    They serve one of the best steak in Romania, that is my opinion so far. The staff is polite and kind. It is my first visit here, on the 1st of January, I am sure I will come back to eat here in the future. Congratulations guys! Happy New Year!

    Fabulous place. Stumbled upon Craft in a Friday night by chance - I am not living in Craiova. Food is excellent I totally recommend the Craft starter and the burger. Speedy service, polite staff, they are taking Visa and Master Card. Will come back!

    (Translated by Google) I know, it is very difficult to hire staff in the field of Horeca, unfortunately many locations have to lose with it. The same goes for this location. I don't like to leave mischievous comments, but I have the impression that the staff totally missed their job. I'm sorry that even now it has not been understood that not only food is important when going to a restaurant. I leave two stars for staff, not for food. (Original) Știu, este foarte greu să angajezi personal in domeniul Horeca, din păcate multe locații au de pierdut cu asta. La fel și în cazul acestei locații. Nu-mi place sa las comentarii răutăcioase dar am impresia că personalul și-a greșit, total, meseria. Îmi pare rău că nici până acum nu s a înțeles că nu doar mancarea este importanta când mergi la un restaurant. Las doua stele pentru personal nu pentru mâncare.

    Very nice place for breakfast, brunch or dinner. I like the atmosphere, pub vibe, food and drinks. In weekend you can have a quiet coffee break and after to visit the center of the city.

    Everything is fantastic. The portions are exactly the amount a person would need to be full, the food is tasty. The staff is super helpful and friendly and the atmosphere combines fancy and cozy. One of the best places I have been to.

  • 4/5 Ozgur E. 1 year ago on Google
    Starters are recommended. Steak was overpriced for 120+lei, not much delicious! Could not finish it due to tendons and fat. Tiramisu is quite delicious. One of the biggest jar of dessert I’ve seen so far. Serving time is short and behaviour is good. Place is cosy and music is fine. Recommended!

    Unfortunately the pasta was not really ok, I felt sick afterwards. Thr egg was overcooked and the cream mixed with oil which gave it a weird taste. The drinks and salad were good.

    5 stars for the tasty & affordable coffee! (the milk will just break its taste) The location has a wonderful arts&crafts + industrial design. The dishes are well prepared but there is a bit of balkan taste in the italian pasta or the english breakfast. The food prices are quite high (high for Craiova). The esspresso is affordable and tasty and this is the reason I gave 5 stars. For the pasta (value vs price) 4 stars are too many.

  • 5/5 Krunoslav L. 1 year ago on Google
    NIce place, Food is good, prices acceptable and service just as it has to be. (Besides English, we were able to communicate in Spanish also) I will not add more, don't wanna make it look like advertisement. Definitely I will return, and I recommend to others to check out this place.

  • 5/5 Alexandru V. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Jon K. 2 years ago on Google
    Really nice place and the steak was just amazing. Staff were also very attentive and efficient. Got to try it again for sure.

  • 5/5 Niko G. 1 year ago on Google
    Great atmosphere. Our waitress Andrea was very friendly. The food... Amazingly good! If you're a tourist and you don't smoke then the abundant amount of cigarette smoking around you might be a bit much, but you will have to deal with this just about anywhere here if you sit outside unfortunately. It would be really nice to have an outdoor section that is non-smoming but that doesn't seem to be a thing here... Also, it seems difficult to have your bill split. 2 nights and 2 different restaurants and neither did what we wanted. All in all though, Craft itself is a great place and I would definitely go back again and is highly recommended!

  • 4/5 Andrea C. 1 year ago on Google
    Good atmosphere, well designed location. Meals ordered: Linguine ai frutti di mare and quinoa/avocado sweet potatoes salad. Taste very good for both. Only minor on the pasta, the sauce was very tasty but not well glued to the pasta itself (see pict) - likely pasta not cooked the last minutes within the sauce pan.

    Great ambient, service & food. We loved also the wine selection. One of the rare restaurants where picture in menu is same as meal you receive on table it self. One of best eats in Romania after one week trip.

    Nice place and also the atmosphere was chill. Kind staff and good services. The food was tasty but quite expensive for this city. Recommend seafood pasta.

    I had a wonderful dining experience at this restaurant. The food was truly exceptional, offering a delectable array of flavors that left my taste buds delighted. The cozy ambiance added to the overall charm, making it an ideal spot for a relaxing and enjoyable meal. Highly recommended for those seeking both delicious cuisine and a warm atmosphere.

    (Translated by Google) A cozy place in Craiova, where you can be calm, enjoying quality food. The decoration is original, different types of tables, some with sofas, others high ... the bar, central and open island type is very original. The musical setting cannot be overlooked, which although a little loud is not at all annoying since it goes perfectly with the atmosphere of the site. A young team attends visitors politely and very well. (Original) Un sitio acogedor en Craiova, donde poder estar tranquilo, disfrutando de una comida de calidad. La decoración es original, diferentes tipos de mesas, algunas con sofas, otras altas... la barra, tipo isla central y abierta es muy original. No se puede pasar por alto la ambientación musical, que aunque un poco alta no es nada molesta ya que va perfecta con el ambiente del sitio. Un equipo joven atiende a los visitantes con educación y muy correctamente.

  • 1/5 Razvan 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I don't usually leave a negative review. I think something bad has to happen several times to justify a negative review. But you can't help but leave a negative review when: 1) Wait 30 minutes for someone to come to take the drink order and an hour for them to come and take the food order, even though you signal to them and it is in the middle of the pandemic (limited number of customers) ... 2) When he gets to take your order, he tells you phlegmatically that the first 2 options you chose are missing and you don't want a burger ... In short, it is useless to invest in the place, the atmosphere, the kitchen and its staff, if you take the waiter second-hand. (Original) Nu las review negativ deobicei. Consider ca trebuie sa se intample de mai multe ori ceva urat ca sa justifice un review negativ. Dar nu poti sa nu lasi un review negativ cand: 1) Astepti 30 de minute sa vina cineva sa ia comanda de bautura si o ora sa vina sa ia comanda de mancare, desi le faci semn si este in mijlocul pandemiei(numar limitat de clienți)... 2) Cand ajunge sa iti preia comanda iti spune flegmatic ca lipsesc primele 2 optiuni alese de tine si nu cumva vrei un burger... Pe scurt, degeaba investești in local, atmosfera, bucatarie si personalul ei, daca ospătarul il iei de la second-hand.

    (Translated by Google) Although there was no one in the restaurant, and it was Monday afternoon, he invited us to stay at the bar ... (Original) Desi nu era nimeni in restaurant, si era luni dupa amiaza ne-a poftit sa stam la bar...

  • 5/5 Oana B. 3 years ago on Google
    O locatie frumoasa, foarte cautata si pentru mai multa siguranta in a gasi un loc, trebuie neaparat o rezervare. Mancarea este absolut delicioasa, atmosfera cool, design deosebit, servire impecabila. La urmatoarea vizita in Craiova voi reveni cu drag! Recomanad 👍

  • 5/5 Marina B. 3 years ago on Google
    I found Craft while searching for a good place to eat in Craiova. I can't recommend it enough! It is such a dreamy, lovely restaurant with a big terrace. The staff are all very nice and prompt and the food is super delicious. I had the BlackAngus burger which was juicy, my mom the Sheperd pie (and she was super happy with it) and also my dad was very satisfied with the pork dish. Highly recommend it!

  • 5/5 Marko J. 4 years ago on Google
    Really good place with pub food. The stuff is amazing and with patience. It's a good place to take a break from summer heat and chill out with a beer. Pork ribs are brilliant, soft and crispy with sweet & sour sauce. Burger medium rare, with the perfect bun. Fries are delicious. Pork steak also wonderful with cheesy sauce. Altogether perfect 5 stars. I would recommend to everyone to try and chill, or enjoy the lunch here.

  • 4/5 Gons G. 4 years ago on Google
    Good restaurant, in my opinion the best of this zone. I have been in a lot of restaurants here and surely I choose this. The fault is the treatment of the waiters, I think that is not the best sometimes. But the dishes are so good without doubts

  • 5/5 Theodora D. 3 years ago on Google
    Great food! Highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Cristi 3 years ago on Google
    We booked and we could order before arriving as we were in a hurry. The place is central and looks quite attractive. The service is discreet and efficient. The safety norms are respected. The food is of consistent size, good quality and appropriately priced. We enjoyed the shepherd pie and the boar with polenta, both very good.

  • 5/5 Nicolae S. 3 years ago on Google
    It was a great experience. I went there with a friend and the food was delicious. We told them politely that we ordered desserts because they forgot about them. When they brought the desserts, they said “You don’t have to pay for them, we are sorry for any inconvenience”. And they were not even that late, we should have got our desserts like 15-20 min earlier. Great customer service as well! And the portions were bigger than last year.

    (Translated by Google) I also wanted a champagne and they told me they only had prosecco. Well, you have to have champagne in the center. That's not possible. Also, in the context of the pandemic, I made a reservation but they did not inform me that after 19:00 they had another reservation made before on the tables reserved by me. They just apologized for making other reservations and had to take my guests elsewhere. Disadvantages of organization. Otherwise it's a nice place. (Original) Am vrut și eu o sampanie și mi-au zis că au doar prosecco. Pai trebuie sa ai sampanie in centru. Nu se poate așa ceva. De asemenea, In contextul pandemiei am făcut rezervare dar nu m-au anunțat că după ora 19:00 aveau alta rezervare făcută înainte pe mesele rezervate de mine. Doar și-au cerut scuze că au alte rezervări făcute și a trebuit să îmi duc invitații in alta parte. Inconveniente de organizare. In rest e un loc plăcut.

  • 1/5 Andrei F. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Poor services, 2 waitresses who had no business, came and threw food in front of me like a dog. It left me with a bitter taste, I will never come back and I do not recommend it (Original) Servicii slabe, 2 ospătărițe care nu aveau nicio treaba, au venit mi au aruncat mancarea in fata ca la un câine. Mi-a lăsat un gust amar, nu o sa mai revin niciodata și nici nu recomand

    (Translated by Google) I served pasta with seafood. They were very poorly cooked from 2 years ago. They also cost a lot for what was offered. The tomato sauce was sour and watery, few seafood. Very poorly made lemonade with a little lemon. It is clear to me that the level of this restaurant has dropped. Maybe they changed the cook or I don't know what happened ... I'm sure I won't be back. Too bad the restaurant is beautifully arranged, clean, central ... But the food leaves much to be desired. (Original) Am servit paste cu fructe de mare. Au fost gătite foarte prost fata de acum 2 ani. Au costat si foarte mult pentru ceea ce s-a oferit. Sosul de roșii a fost acru și apos, fructe de mare puține. Limonada foarte prost făcută cu puțină lămâie. Îmi este clar ca a scăzut nivelul acestui restaurant. Poate au schimbat bucătarul sau nu stiu ce s-a întâmplat...cert este că nu voi mai reveni. Păcat de restaurantul frumos amenajat, curat, central...Dar mâncarea lasa de dorit.

    Quick stop for a bite that turned out to be the best choice of the day. Delicious food, spices used right and a magical atmosphere that makes me wish this restaurant would be closer to my home city. Good job to everybody there, working in or outside the kitchen. Will stop there every change I get.
