Casa Pustnicu - Brăneşti

Ok.... they are vintage, old style, waiter old-fashioned....but outside the location when it hot outside is very nice, excelent zen view. Inside not modern, it could be better, but they try to do their best for food. Reabs excellent! Papanasii very good, and if you do not like, please tell them Becouse, they are open to hearing about it. I'll give you to go to lunch on Sunday when it's hot outside to have lunch.

Nice place and beautiful views, but that's it! The food was really bad. Don't try the fish when you eat there.

Large Romanian restaurant, hidden in the forest a few miles away from Bucharest, a place where you can taste delicious Romanian dishes and the atmosphere is just incredible. If you spend some time in Bucharest and you get a car, I would recommend giving it a try.

A beautiful terrace overlooking Pasarea Lake and Pustnicu Forest. The place is beautiful. Overcrowded in the summer weekends. I recommend going there this week. Very good Romanian food and drinks. Nice grills, but also cooked food. The old waiters are great. The good old school...

Shortly, we liked it a lot. Although it is quite a Romanian place, it is the good version of it. A rather big location, with a 3 levels open terrace with stunning lake view and fresh air. At only 20 minutes from the city, it worths the trip. It is in the forrest, on the Pustnicu lake shore. On the other side of the lake there is Pasarea monastery. Good food. We had an excellent mixed barbecue, good romanian ciorba soup, grilled vegetables plateau, eggplant salad, greek salad. The desserts looked marvellous at the neighbours 's tables but we skiped the sweets : Although we visited the place on an extremely crowded Sunday during a long holiday week-end, so the whole area was extremely overcrowded, they managed to find us a place and to bring the food quick and fresh. We had a good communication with the waiter, he found good and creative solutions for us to reduce the waiting time due to overcrowded barbecue. The young owner of the place knows how to manage the place and was present and very effective. Surprisingly good music, and not too loud (that 's rare in this country, if you know what I mean . It is a good idea to make a reservation in advance, especially during the week-ends or holidays. This way you will know for sure that you have a good table waiting for you. We will definitely visit this place again, for a short escape from the crowded city. Do not miss the walk on the lake shore after a good meal.
