Came here with a couple of friends and we got one of the low tables near the window &mdash; honestly the vibe was so cozy, felt like a tiny izakaya in Japan. We ordered a few rolls and the miso soup, all pretty solid. Service was nice but it did get busy later, so book ahead if you&#39;re going on a weekend.

The Greek salad and seafood pasta were pretty good. Service was a bit slow, but the food made up for it. Decent spot for a casual meal.

The mango dessert looked like an actual mango, which I thought was pretty cool. Taste was good too, not too sweet. The place itself is tiny though, like a few tables max. I grabbed a seat by the window and it was fine for a quick stop. Staff were nice about explaining the menu. Just don&#39;t come here expecting to sit around for a long time.

Nice salads and that dressing is really good. Pricey for the size, and cash only, but the sorbet made up for it.

Stopped by for the tasting menu. Location&rsquo;s super central, interior&rsquo;s sleek and comfy. The cheese platter with truffle honey was the highlight for sure. Just a heads up, the meal is long&mdash;like, really long. But if you&rsquo;re not in a rush, it&rsquo;s a solid pick for a fancy night out.

The place looks nice from the outside, and inside it&rsquo;s pretty cozy too. We grabbed a table by the window, and the light was really pleasant. Pizza was decent, salad was okay. Service dragged a bit though, we waited a while just to get the bill. Fine if you&rsquo;re not in a rush.

Stumbled on this little place in central Sofia and honestly the cakes are the reason to go. Got the pistachio one, looked almost too pretty to eat. Quiet inside, nice for an afternoon break. Staff let me take my time deciding, which I appreciated. Just wish they had more savoury options, but for sweets it&rsquo;s a solid find.

Stopped by for a morning coffee and a pastry. Coffee was solid, pastry was good too. Place itself is nice and modern. Only thing is the music felt a bit off for that early hour. Not a big deal though. Would sit by the window again if I&#39;m in the area.

Solid espresso and a proper flat white. The spinach and cheese banitsa was crispy, not greasy. Good spot for a quick breakfast.

The gelato flavors change up often, which I like. Coffee was solid too. Portion size for the price is decent, not huge but fair enough for a quick dessert stop.

Stopped by for a flat white and ended up grabbing a bag of single-origin beans to go. Barista actually knew what she was talking about. Honey cake was decent too, maybe a bit sweet for me.

The basement room worked well for our reservation&mdash;plenty of space and not too noisy. Staff checked on us just enough without hovering. Only small thing: it got a bit chilly down there by the end. I&#39;d bring a light jacket if you&#39;re sitting in that area. Food was solid, but honestly the comfortable seating made the biggest difference for me.

The garden seating is a nice escape in summer. Food was solid, service kept things moving. Interior&#39;s a bit much for me, but that&#39;s personal taste.

Stopped by for a pint after work. Guinness was properly poured, which is harder to find than you&#39;d think. Didn&#39;t eat this time, but the menu looked like standard pub fare. Service was quick enough at the bar. Place gets busy later, so grab a seat early if you&#39;re with a group. Fine spot if you&#39;re in the center and want a reliable beer.

Nice little garden out back, perfect when the sun&#39;s out. Got an Aperol Spritz, hit the spot. Cocktail list is long, maybe too long, but you&#39;ll find something.

Best tarama I&#39;ve had in ages. Place is tiny but cozy. Food was solid across the board. Waiter knew his stuff. Gets busy so book ahead.

Stopped by for dinner, place looks way better than the outside suggests. Smoked tomato soup was the surprise hit, honestly. Duck magret came out exactly as asked. Waiters actually knew their stuff when I asked about the menu. Only thing, it&#39;s not cheap, but you get what you pay for here.

The Tartufata pizza was solid&mdash;earthy truffle flavor, good cheese ratio. Wild beer on the side worked nicely. Place was packed, line moved fast. Only thing: those bright lights inside kinda kill the mood.

Goat cheese salad was pretty good, decent for bar food. Portions run small for what you pay though, better for drinks than a full meal.

Walked in for dinner last week. Place looks great, no doubt. Wine list is solid too. But the food? Just okay. Had the steak, came out a bit overcooked. Not what I expected for the price. Maybe I caught them on a bad night. Might give it another shot, but not rushing back.

The mushroom soup was the kind of comfort you don&#39;t expect from a random corner place. Garlic tomato salad too &ndash; simple but fresh. Fries with white cheese on top, that was a nice surprise. Service was friendly, not pushy. Prices felt fair for what you get. Just a bit hard to find a seat around noon.

Stopped by for a quick dinner and the service really stood out. Not the type that hovers over you, just there when you needed them. Wine glass never sat empty, which I always appreciate. Food was decent too, nothing fancy but solid. Place was a bit noisy but that&rsquo;s fine for a weeknight. Would come back if I&rsquo;m in the area.

The fish meatballs had real flavor, not just salt. Chocolate tart with peanut butter was a solid way to end. Staff checked in enough without hovering. Prices okay for being right in the center.

Decent spot for breakfast after a hike in Boyana. Food was fresh, coffee fine. Calm enough inside, music not too loud. Pretty good for a slow morning.

Garden seating&rsquo;s a bit loud from the street, but the music covers it. Waiter knew his stuff, food came quick. Draft beer fell flat though.

The new spot is really nice, and the pad thai was spot on. I loved the balance of sweet and tangy, and the noodles had that perfect chew. The place itself feels fresh and clean, which I appreciate. Just a heads up, it got a bit busy around noon, but that didn&#39;t ruin the vibe for me.

The cauliflower steak and dips were really good. Loved the garden setting, felt like a little escape from the city. Service was quick, just wish the tables weren&#39;t so close together.
