Very tasty and good price. The meat was well-cooked, the sauces are in moderate quantity and the vegetables are fresh. I strongly recommend you to give it a try!

Comfort food for me and my wife and we are always tempted to go there when we are in the area. Highly recommend.

They make the best burger I've had in Romania. Conveniently located just outside the Lulius Mall, it's great for a quick bite. I ordered the Dopamine burger and it was delicious. The meat was juicy and moist, the bun was soft and fresh and the toppings were superb. The fries were nice and crispy and don't sleep on the grilled cheese. There are lots of tables nearby and a nice park right next to it if you wanna have a picnic.
