    I visited this restaurant with one of my Romanian friends. She recommended a few of the vegan dishes from their menu, and I must say each of them were so delicious and perfectly crafted by chefs. The service was so up to mark. The man who served us was very kind and friendly. He guided me with best vegan Romanian food. I absolutely loved it and highly recommend anyone who is looking forward to explore. This place is located at very Silent area so you can have a chill while enjoying food.

    A fantastic experience in this lovely restaurant, delicious food with Romanian traditional cuisine, disappointed only by one point: When you looking to be named as a “RESTAURANT” is rule, THE RESTAURANT WHO DOES RESPECT THEM SELF WILL NEVER ALLOW CUSTOMERS TO SMOKE INSIDE THE PREMISES, EVEN VAPE. No matter what event they are attend-inside, is such a lovely covered terrace for all smoker’s along the side of the building.

    We had our daughters Christening party last Saturday. The food, staff, decoration, and atmosphere were flawless. Special thanks to the waiter George, who went above and beyond to make our night special.

    We celebrated my wedding ceremony at Cornelius in a private room upstairs. The guys were brilliant, very attentive and friendly. The food was amazing, maybe a bit to much. Just a slightly minor issue with the bill but that was sorted promptly. I highly recommend the place for any party, lunch or dinner, there are options for everyone.

    Nice and warm atmosphere from all staff, we have been welcoming from George and he also gave us many great advices in a way to have the best culinary Romanian experience. Cozy place and superb meat. Affordable prices. Perfect for a dinner with friend. Thank you George to have been looking after after us. Memorable experience.

    A little gem where you can experience the #romanian cuisine, have your special #event or #party. Cornel - the owner and his staff will make sure you are looked after! So if you are planning a christening party, want to celebrate something special, planing an event for your company or community groups, or simply just want a little taster of what the romanians are keep talking about when they brag about their traditional food, look no further! Can't recommend it enough! H

    Perfect place for a wedding. Great food, very tasty and the portions are big, very attentive when it comes to dietary restrictions, allergies or different types of menus( halal, vegetarian). The venue was beautifully decorated, exactly how I wanted. Mr Ionut is very reliable and helpful, also Marius is the best waiter, he really went out of his way to make our day perfect. I would definitely come back anytime.

    Amazing Restaurant. Good food, impeccable service and an amazing atmosphere. We recently had an event at Cornelius, and it was flawless. Starting from the decorations to food, staff, everything was amazing. I would highly recommend this restaurant not only for events, but even for quick traditional Romanian cuisine lunch/dinner. You will not be disappointed

    Time and time again we’ve come here and the staff never failed to make it a perfect experience for us. Ionuț specifically took care of us every single time and every time he always puts more than 100% effort in. We are more than pleased with the food, atmosphere, music but most importantly Ionuț’s customer service and passion never fails to amaze us. Thank you and we’ll be back soon!
