Mâncare OK, am comandat fructe de mare si ceva aperitiv pe baza de branzeturi+bresaola. Caracatiță extrem de buna, cea mai buna de pana acum. Vinuri bune dar preturi exagerate zic eu pt o taverna. Atmosfera plăcută, muzica ambientala plăcută (fado cred).
Un minus a fost mirosul de fum de la gril care venea pana la mese si mirosul puternic de detergent(spălau vasele cred) care iti cam tăia pofta de mâncare.
Servire OK, am vărsat un pahar de vin, refill făcut si nu am fost taxat.
Per total o experienta plăcută alături de soție!

Un spatiu in care toate sunt la superlativ.
Muzica ambientala si cea live accentueaza si mai mult unicitatea localului.
Felicitari!

Mancare extraordinara servita rapid, muzica portugheza live si vinuri alese, o reteta perfecta pentru o seara reusita.

A lot to say. First, the good part: we ordered mostly grilled beef and pork, and that was competently done, as you would expect from a simple cooking technique, grilling. But everything else gives a cheap and tasteless impression. Those hangers on the table for the skewers, they do not belong in a social setting. I've seen them nowhere in Portugal, they sit between the diners and obfuscate vision and conversation. It's like eating on a Medieval torture table. There is simply no need for such things. Other restaurants have managed to serve skewers without resorting to such contraptions. Then the plates. Wooden cutting boards with a handle and black ceramic plating, they look old, gimmicky and improvised. Whatever happened to white, ceramic plates? The side dish is always the same, a saute of vegetables that have lost all color and a boiled and baked potato with a chip sticking from it! Why? And why is this the same for anything your order, shouldn't the cook try and pair the sides with the meat? Speaking of lazy: droplets of hamburger cocktail sauce, straight from a plastic bottle. No effort whatsoever to include an original Portuguese sauce, just a few uninspired droplets like it's 1980. There is nothing Portuguese about this restaurant except the wine list. Seafood is hard to bring in Cluj in such a fashion as to be similar to Lisbon, but salmon, shrimp and tuna? The same as every single restaurant in Cluj? I do not understand what the intention is here. This is not a bad restaurant, it's an average one. But the prices and the branding make a mockery of things Portuguese. Only in Cluj could something this lazy pass as an authentic experience, and get huge grades from clueless Romanians who thing they just had an original experience. Too bad.

Update... still 4 stars and not 5... We had another tasty meal, but again with issues. The prawns were good, but not as good as the ones we had a year ago (garlic oil in stead of Madeira (?) sauce). The clams were just delicious, but before I could finish my dish, and I'm not a slow eater, the main dish arrived: octopus from the oven. It was good (well cooked, which is not easy), but I don't get it why this is a signature dish (for 95 lei). The two potatoes were nice, but the little bit of broccoli and cauliflower was badly overcooked. And those were the only vegetables on the plate. The rest was swimming in oil. The oil is tasty, don't get me wrong, but it was too much, imho. And again, no time until the next course (delicious pastel de nata). I ended up eating three dishes in a row, without any time in between and that doesn't work for me. Staff was great, btw, and the food is just really really tasty. After all, that is the most important part of the meal.

I would love to have given 5 stars for this place, but I can't. We were looking forward to this place, that should have "the best seafood in town". As starter we had the large prawns in a yummy sauce. This must have been one of the best things I've eaten (outside of Portugal/Spain, that is). It was delicious...! Our hopes were very high for the main dish, the skewer with seafood. But unfortunately, that was a but of a let-down. yes, the idea is awesome and some of it was cooked well, but other parts were heavily overcooked (especially nearer to the handle). The sauces were well made, btw, and I personally loved the potato. But all in all... it doesn't work anymore. And given the near perfect prawns as a starter, I know the kitchen can do better. I'd love to see that in a different concept, and we'd be back here. I can't speak for the meat skewers, btw, but judging from the reaction from other tables, they are good. Probably because the cook more evenly than the seafood. Anyway, all in all a deserved 4 stars, with one of them for just the prawns.

This is the best restaurant in Cluj.
I belive that taste and quality is defined mainly by the prime source of the ingredients.
The kitchen is having the best quality money can buy ingredients for each plate.
Beside the upper there are the most different and special plates in the city, including picanha wagy, iberic pork and amazing swordfish file.
