Cabana Poiana Secuilor

The place itself is in a really attractive location. But be careful when ordering: we asked for grilled chicken breast with fried potatoes, and were charged 40 lei for a small, 100 g piece of chicken and 18 lei for the potatoes. I asked the waitress what came with the chicken if ordered by itself, and she said it would be just the chicken, with nothing on the side. I feel they manipulate the prices and dishes.

The food was really good. I didn't stay overnight!

I’ve been back to the restaurant several times. The food is tasty, the desserts are great, and they have lemonade in different flavors. The view is magnificent too, definitely worth seeing.

I’m reviewing only the restaurant and its atmosphere. The location is beautiful, and the outdoor tables are nicely set up. But there’s a designated spot for singers, and once they start, you have to put up with whatever music they choose. It’s loud, and the owner doesn’t seem to care about the noise in the nature reserve. I imagine the wild animals flee from this disturbance. I didn’t see any birds either. People come here to enjoy nature, and music, even if it’s music, adds noise they may not want. Everyone has different tastes, which the owner seems not to consider. The food was disappointing too. Our ciorba de burta arrived cold, so we had to ask for it to be reheated. The soups had little flavor, though they were acceptable. The cheese and cream pancakes were very good. We also tried a fresh fruit smoothie-like drink with ginseng root. It wasn’t bad, but the serving was too small for the price. We left early because we couldn’t stand the music any longer. The owner has put together plenty of interesting, beautiful things here, but the loud live music spoils the experience and disturbs the natural surroundings.
