I never write reviews, but this time I around I felt I had something to say. I stumbled upon this little gem while looking for something different to the hipstery brunch places in Kapana - overpriced and similar. The menu was different and it turns out the chef has spent some years in Italy a while back, so he opened the restaurant when he came back. Hands down the best pasta with olives Ive had in some time, excellent wine choice and some traditional BG cuisine. I have visited most hyped places in Plovdiv and could not recommend enough this little gem.

Charming and friendly Italian restaurant in the very center of Plovdiv. Our Working time is from Monday to Saturday from 05.00 PM to 12.00 PM. We open during lunch time or on Sunday only with reservations.

Went here based on the reviews. While it was good, I do feel it is being over hyped. To us it was just average. Not bad, but certainly not special. Like the venue, the waitress could have smiled more, looked pretty dour most of the time. The chef (owner?) was very nice. We arrived at 5:30. They don't open till six. The chef yelled threw a window that we could come in and wait inside. That was nice. He then gave us some warm bread and cheese to snack on while we waited. Also very nice. Decent mix of local and Italian wines. Nice sized menu. We had a pizza, the veal saltimbocca, the veal pizzaioli, and the mussels. All were fine but, as I said before, nothing special. The chef tried to talk us out of the saltimbocca, saying we'd have to wait too long. Not sure why, looked simple enough when it was served. Anyway, good but by no means great.

We went on a hot evening as the sun was setting. All the tables had reserved on them but this appeared to be to stop people sitting just anywhere as we were shown to one of these tables and the sign removed. Drinks were very similar to those in other restaurants we went to. The service was good and efficient and although we both ordered the same main course it was consistent a good portion for a reasonable price. The only reason for not giving 5 stars was that I felt it lacked an overall "wow factor".

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our evening meal here recently. Staff were friendly and attentive - we ate their speciality beef hamburger, with salad and accompanying chips. Our half bottle of local red wine was delicious. A great way to celebrate our last night of our tour of Plovdiv and Sofia.

The food here is delicious, full of flavour, so many elements on the one plate, but they all compliment each other. The first night my duck magret was beautifully cooked with the fat rendered down and the accompanying sides of couscous and carrot puree (who thought carrot could taste this good!) excellent. So good.....had to return the next evening to get some more takeout.....while we waited the receptionist/manager brought us a lovely Bulgarian wine to try.....very nice touch! My pork was again perfectly cooked and the peach, carrot puree with rich mushroom sauce delicious. Just salivating as I key this in....wish we lived nearby :) Value for money too....highly recommend!
