Bucharest is a modern city that is filled with many things to do and cool cafes, restaurants, and bars that are extremely cool. You will find restaurants with all kinds of foods and you will have a great culinary experience. Here are a few cafes and restaurants you should check out if you get to the lovely city.
Biutiful – a bar restaurant on the lake
I love going to restaurants with beautiful views, and this one did not disappoint. It’s located in Herăstrău Park, right in front of the lake. Its decor is magnificent, like nothing I’ve ever seen. The place looks like a boat, and the food, as well as service, are of a really high quality! The prices are a bit more expensive than the other places we’ve eaten at, but it’s definitely worth the experience and the great food.
We went there for a late lunch and we got a nice view of the lake. The food is a mixture of Greek, Indian, and Romanian cuisines. We ordered a chicken tandoori dish, zucchini with tzatziki, beef patties, and Indian naan. The food was delicious and dishes were light and appetizing. I’m sure that at dinner time the place is fuller and is really vibrant.

Hiro Sushi – Japanese restaurant
We really like Japanese food, especially soups and sushi, so we knew in advance that we wanted to go to get some in Bucharest, also because the prices are quite low.
I made a small research about Japanese food and I found a good one that serves ramen named Hiro Sushi. The location was great because it was right next to the spa where I got a message.
We went for dinner and got a nice table outside. The waiter was really nice and he explained all about the menu. We ordered some ramens. Roman ordered his with pork and I got mine with shrimp. He got the large one, of course, and I got the regular size. We also ordered a sushi roll with mango, it was my first time trying out mango with sushi and it was amazing. As well as a sushi sandwich and salmon sashimi.
The large soup ended up being a huge soup, but don’t worry about Roman, he ate it till the last bite. The soups were delicious, not as strong as a ramen usually is, but regardless really good. The sushi plate and sashimi was really impressive. We had to finish with some dessert and we ordered some ice cream, but it was huge and we couldn’t finish everything. The quality was good and we really enjoyed our dinner. The bonus is that it was one of the cheapest Japanese restaurants I ever came across.

Origo – An amazing cafe with incredible coffee
If you are a coffee lover, which I know I am, then you’re not going to want to miss this place. We rented an Airbnb apartment and we found this place because it’s in the neighborhood. I think it’s one of the places with the kindest service I’ve ever come across. They have a large variety of coffees and they also serve some unique flavors.
We got an iced coffee that was really refreshing with some lemon and soda. I know it sounds crazy but it was actually really good. We also got an iced latte which was amazing. We ordered some banana bread to snack on, it must be one of my favorites in Romania. The waitress told us that they were planning on opening a place that will also serve food. You should definitely try out this place.
