Romanian Garden - Sunnyside

After a long time, it was great to enjoy some old favorites. Especially the deserts bleeded me away this time. Look at the photo of the crepes with jam I also published. Don't skip desert in this place.

I've never been to Romania so I can't say how authentic it is, but it probably is considering I'm always the only non-Romanian eating here when I visit! What can I say? I love a good steak, but I find beef a bit too heavy so I come here for their pork steaks (ceafa de porc), something I don't find in many other restaurants. It's also fun to get some mamaliga (like polenta) on the side instead of the usual potatoes, and a glass of Romanian wine helps it all go down a treat.

Authentic Romanian cuisine. Everything we ordered reminded us of the dishes made by my mother and aunt. While it is a bit pricey, it’s the only Romanian restaurant in the area, so it’s definitely worth it. This was our second visit to NYC, and we can’t wait for our next trip!

We always make it a point to dine here because the food is excellent. It's definitely worth it to feel like royalty again!

Authentic Romanian restaurant. The decor was reminiscent of Romania, the waitress spoke Romanian, the band played traditional Romanian songs, and of course, the dishes and wines were true to Romanian cuisine. Everything we tasted was delicious, especially the signature dish, the Romanian sausages, which were just like the kebabs found in Romania. I highly recommend it!
