PAPILA

An excellent choice! It has taken the 1st spot in my personal top for delicious & creative dishes in Bucharest! Loved the food. Let me say that again: loooved the food! So incredibly tasty and balanced! We had to order seconds for the dumplings, they were so awesome! The staff are friendly & efficient, it is very clean and cosy, although it is small and you need reservations. We’ve only had the lunch menus but definitely coming back for a dinner date! I could eat here every day! 🤍🌸🎀

If not the best, definitely one of the best pork ramen I’ve ever had so far. A small, charming spot in the heart of Bucharest, with fair prices and lots of passion behind everything they do. Excellent service and incredibly tasty food. Very good coffee also. Important: A reservation is absolutely required for Ramen Sunday.

Best ramen in town so far! I was amazed by the quality of ingredients, the rate of home made noodles - apparently, and the inventiveness of recipes. Good service, nice ambience. The cocktail was also good. Surely will come back.

Lovely food, great value. Server was polite and attentive. Only issue is the regular traffic flowing past, as we sat outside it stayed quite noisy. Definitely recommended if you're visiting Bucharest 👏🏻

I enjoyed the food, drinks, service and atmosphere. The mushrooms in the ramen were too salty for my liking but as a whole it was very good! The matcha tiramisu and the cocktails were very good and tasty as well. I especially enjoyed the Papila Toki beer.

5 star experience. Easily the best meal we enjoyed in Bucharest. Every dish we had for dinner was an eclectic mix of ingredients that worked brilliantly⭐️. Service, drinks, atmosphere all superb ….certainly lives up to its ethos of being a small, big hearted bistro. Don’t miss out !

Amazing food experience! Don’t walk to Papila. Run! We had a three course meal, Prosecco, wine og drinks and every single bite and sip was just great and prices very affordable and fair. The beets starter, Lam main and cheesecake dessert are the best food I have had in a long, long time. Best experience in Bucharest!!

The type of place I dream of. Would rate it 10 stars if I could. Every single dish was executed to perfection - all flavours perfectly balanced in an innovative spin between Romanian ingredients, French techniques and a twist of Asian spice. The owners and every single member of the staff became personal friends of ours within one meal - they helped us on a personal mission to track down a folk flute maker we had been looking for all trip. Beautiful interior decor, so personally decorated and full of plants and natural elements like rattan. The art was whimsical and refreshing. Honestly better than the vast majority of fifty plus Michelin starred restaurants I’ve been to across Europe and Asia. Incredible value for money. Was so overwhelmingly amazing I went back twice on my last day in Bucharest. Could only hope to live next door!
