The entrance leaves you a bit questioning if you took the right decision to choose the place, but when the waiter invites you upstairs it looks much better. Even cosy and welcoming.The waiters themselves are attentive, but not much more.The food itself is good, but not something outstanding. But that is just y taste.Maybe the whole experience just disappointed me some when I asked for the bill and saw that they added by pen 10% service on it…Of course they mentioned that this is not a must, and this is something I do anyway when I am happy with the service. But this time I felt it was forced on me, even though they said it’s a choice. I did not like the gesture at all.I would not visit a second time to be sincere.Probably I shouldn’t have left any tip as a consequence…

Huge selection of vegan options. The food is phenomenal — we had the truffle hummus, the vegan platter, and the 2 in 1 soup.The staff is very friendly, service is great, and the decor is lovely.We will definitely be back!

One of the best places to eat downtown as a meat lover or vegan. This is not a place where they harrass you outside to get in, is not a tourist trap and they have a wide selection of wines to accompany your meal. Perfect for dates as well if you want to impress!

Looks very good on paper but very bad customer experience.Meals average in terms of taste, very little quantity considering the price.Horrible service from the waiters.Not smiling, I had to ask 3 times for the bill, when given the bill, the waiter insisted on the fact that I had to give 10% of tips.Another frustrating point:I wanted to sit in a table close to the window. The waitress refused saying that the 3 tables for 2 people were all already booked. So I needed to sit in front of a wall.During the whole time I was there , none of these 3 tables were occupied. I suppose it is because I was only 1 person.Not recommended at all, especially because of the very bad service !

I would give 5 stars if the service was better. We ate at the restaurant two weeks ago. Food is very tasty - we tried babaganush , branza saganaki, three colored falafels ( classic one and red one were delicious, hummus entrecôte and vinete entrecôte. You can check the pictures and ingredients of all dishes on the tablet that the waiter will give you. Prices are OK. Staff can be more kind.

We visited this place for lunch and stopped on the terrace. We were encouraged to move inside, where they had A/C and we were sat in a smaller room. Given that we were there with a kid, we welcomed and appreciated the suggestion.The food is fantastic and the menu includes plenty of healthy dishes and vegan options. The staff helpful and friendly.

Brilliant restaurant with amazing food, with a wide selection of options for vegans, vegetarians and those who like meat! The owners and staff were so friendly and helpful. We were visiting from the UK so sadly won’t get a chance to visit again soon.

Great food, great prices on the food menu side but just like most places in old Town alcohol price exceeds its weight. Small pours of wine for the same cost as an appetizer. Drinks tend to be too expensive in this part of town, especially for very small prosecco and red wine pours for the price. But that seems to be the vibe here, profits come from alcohol consumption. Had the falafel, and wild mushrooms which were great. The salmon ceviche was smaller than pictured with very little salmon. Not worth it in our opinion. The lamb chops were also very small, but good. A little pricey for the amount of meat while on the other hand the oso bucco was plenty of food for the price and very tasty. My favorite of the 5 things we ordered. Highly recommended. They even made a table for us outside when seating was full and were very nice and pleasant to us.

The food at Aubergine is good going on great, with both classic and unique dishes on the menu. A special note here would be the delicious variety of vegetarian and vegan options. What we found laxking at Aubergine was the service. Although very friendly and polite, the staff seem quite aloof at times. One time they forgot an item, only to forget it again after asking for it, or not being around despite the fact that it was a quiet evening with not that many customers. But, again, if youre in a chill, relaxed eating mindset, not in a rush, the food and nice, cosy atmosphere makes up for it.

Brought to this restaurant as a recommendation. Deserted upstairs- no vibe at 9.00pm, waiters were seldom and rude at times. Houmous and baba gaboush tasteless with stale bread. Lamb was very dry with the waiter only coming back half an hour after service to check on us. Worst cerviche of my life. Ran out of whisky during service but in their defence they went across the road to get some. No chillis despite advertising authentic Italian cuisine. The toilet had a used avocado coloured bar of soap. Overall not attentive and understaffed. 👎

Very good restaurant in the very heart of city center. They are branded as healthy food and I agree. Fresh fish and meat, fresh vegetables, everything very nice. It has some kind of oriental influences (a lot of dishes with oriental condiments), a lot of vegan and vegetarian options which is great, but also dishes with meat. Very good service (great plus, they also hire foreigners who do not speak romanian language). Medium prices for city center (some a little high, but worth it). Been here twice and will come back

A very attentive waiter and a great selection of vegan options. The mixed vegan starter was beautifully presented and delicious. The aubergine ring main was less so and quite bitter. I would go for the mushroom option instead.

The food was FANTASTIC and the staff was very friendly. I had an eggplant soup and lamb Oso Buco, then chocolate mousse for dessert. Romanian red wine was also beautifully matched, strong character. This culinary experience made my stay in Bucharest!!

Very creative menu. Beautiful food! Nice location. Nice ambience. Great for people watching. Nice vegetarian options. Service was a little difficult. Very friendly but overworked, understaffed? Asked four times for salt, eventually had to go borrow from another table.

Great spot for a meal, to relax and watch the passers-by! We got the soup (two in one), the salmon ceviche and the grilled chicken and everything was very tasty! Service was friendly and attentive. Highly recommend as a spot in Old Town!

Disappointing! After visiting the restaurant one evening I decided to ordered a few dishes (Branza Saganaki, Saksuca vegan cu tofu,Paste Aubergine, Midii Aubergine). It was a mistake, the quality of the food was bad!! The sakusca was very watery, like a soup, the Saganaki feta was just served in a spoon of sauce. The mussels were chewy and bland, and most definitely were frozen, not fresh as advertised. The pasta was undercooked and too oily-I simply couldnt eat it and had to throw it in the bin. Id also like to add that the serving in the restaurant takes too long, they dont have enough personnel and theyre disorganized about taking orders. I dont recommend this restaurant!

The food it’s delicious! Great Vegan cousins with lots of different tastes coming from all over the East. The atmosphere is great and service too.Only thing it’s that it’s pricey and at the moment of paying, I asked to add a tip of 10% and the server tried to add a tip of 25% and making me pay anyway. Luckily I noticed :/

French design, intimate space, mixture of French and North African cuisine, using the eggplant in most of them (even in deserts). The food is a bit pricey, but not as much as the wines. Also, their cocktails need to improve. The staff was nice and patient (we were a larger group and took some time to decide)

Lovely food with a lot of eggplant 🍆The waiters were very sweet, only the payment in the end got a bit messy (considering were used to a different currency thats not their fault but could have been approached a little better)I personally loved the vegan food (and the availability of it!!And that it was reliably displayed in the menu!

amazing place. we did not planned to.be here 3 times, but we ended up every night here after we tasted their food. the hummus is great, as in Israel! the pasta is the best pasta, even greater than other italian restaurants we ate here in bucharest. the prices are average, not cheap, but also not expensive (worth every Lei, the price is low for the quality and taste for sure). more than that, the stuff are very nice and polite. they know the job.best restaurant in the old town by far!!by the way, their kitchen is open very late compared to othe replaces that are closing their kitchen in the area in 22:30..just go..

An excellent, fresh and tasty respite from the heavy food of the district. A leg above, too,when it comes to dishes composition and presentation. Wonderful after a few days of traditional Romanian food...The service is friendly and helpful. Prices tend to be lower than other places in the area.

My orders:Aubergine lemonade - Really good taste, perfect amount of sweetness (noy too much).Aubergine salad - Good balance of leaves and garnish. Lacking a bit of seasoning but good nevertheless. I felt like ordering a second one.Duck breast (medium rare- Extremely good taste and cooked as asked. Meat felt tender and of decent quality.Avocado mousse - Maybe too much strawberry syrup for my taste, but it was the perfect dessert for such a hot summer day. Not regretted!Impressions:Both waiters were really attentive and gentle. Some other customers complained about slowness but I didnt really feel it. At most, my salad came too early as I had to wait for what felt too long until the main dish.Nice terrace with shade and cooling for the summer, 10/10Prices are what I would label as fair. You could it more for less, but youd have to cut in quality and the type of food youd have.

By far this is the best vegan restaurant I have ever visited, and I’m not exaggerating. The quality of the ingredients, the taste, the smell and presentation exceeded my expectations. All my respect to the chef and his talent to reinvent aubergine inspired (veganrecipes, I’m very impressed and super excited to come again and taste more of Chefs creations. Big thank you to Dan, as well, thank you Dan for your recommendation, I wish best of luck and continue delivering exceptional service.
