Pensiunea Gold

I only came for dinner, so I can't speak to the rooms. The food was spectacular, with huge portions and really good flavors, and it was easy on the budget too. Five out of five for the meal.

We were just in the area and stopped at the restaurant. The location is lovely, though the place could use a bit of a refresh; it must have looked great when it first opened. It still felt decent, and the staff were kind. There were only two people serving both the indoor and outdoor tables, though, which wasn't enough for the number of tables. They had just one baby chair. It had been left outside in the rain, looked dirty, and couldn't be cleaned properly in a hurry. Prices were fair, and paying by card was no problem. Of the two soups we ordered, one was okay and the other was great. The Mititei were decent, but nothing special. I wasn't expecting a Michelin restaurant. If all the food had been as good as that better soup, I would have given five stars. With enough staff and a clean baby chair, I would have given five even if the food had stayed the same.

We stopped for lunch in November, when the town was nearly empty. Both the service and food were decent, and the prices were reasonable. Nothing fancy, but it was enough for us.

Please don't eat here. I found a piece of plastic in the sarmale. I really hope I hadn't swallowed a small piece. That shows a lack of care.
