About Epoca De Piatra

The moment a traditional Romanian dish appears at the table, it’s clear that Epoca De Piatra embraces a deep culinary heritage with a modern touch. The flavors of hearty stews and freshly baked bread bring out the essence of Moldova’s rustic cuisine, but the complexity in their preparation often surprises even seasoned diners. A glance through photos shared online hints at this rich variety, from vibrant appetizers to desserts that balance sweetness without overpowering the palate. Though the menu is thoughtfully curated, some dishes could benefit from a touch more seasoning, adding an intriguing layer to the robust flavors already on offer.

Warm wooden interiors and rustic décor create an inviting atmosphere where both locals and travelers might linger, savoring each course slowly. The buzz of conversation melds with the clinking of glasses, evoking a sense of comfort consistent with what many expect from an authentic Romanian restaurant. Attentiveness from the staff subtly enhances the experience, though occasional delays suggest peak hours bring challenges in service consistency. Guests scouring Epoca De Piatra reviews will note such nuances, reflecting a venue undergoing subtle growing pains but largely succeeding in crafting memorable meals paired with congenial hospitality.

While the Branesti Cellars Rd address places the restaurant amid the Moldovan countryside, the appeal lies less in the specific locale and more in the effort to showcase regional tradition through modern interpretations. The variety available on the Epoca De Piatra restaurant’s menu encourages exploration beyond staple dishes, inviting curiosity about lesser-known regional ingredients and preparations. Pricing aligns fairly with portion sizes and quality, offering reasonable value despite minor gaps in execution. A visit here unfolds as a genuine journey into Romanian cuisine, framed by an ambiance that feels intimately connected to place and history.

Outstanding experience here at “Epoca de Piatra”. We celebrated a special occasion, the food was great, apart from some mistakes of the service staff everything was great, waiting time wasn’t too long, worth trying at least one time. It’s a one of a kind restaurant. The fire in the middle, was a great addition to the atmosphere.

The food is good. The place is worth visiting. Better do a reservation in advance, you may not be abele to get a table. It’s pretty cold inside, even in summer, so get a blanket or a jacket. The only thing that disappointed us, was the deserts. All 3 of them were bad. The deep fried ice-cream crust was cold. Cusma lui Guguta was so dry, and the sour cherry was over cooked. The Mules was without sugar and the cheese filling was not a real cheese, was so gummy.

The place is very unique and the ambience is good. On the food itself got three stars as the meat I ordered first came cold and later was overcooked. But overall- well worth the experience.

Visited in September 2023 The restaurant is a bit out of the way, but you can combine it perfectly with a visit to Orheiul Vechi. It is slightly more expensive than the average but absolutely OK and all in all offers good value for money. The restaurant itself offers a unique experience. You could just as easily call it a Flintstones restaurant. The entire interior is located in a grotto. The interior is really ingenious - I don't want to reveal more here, because I don't want to diminish the WOW effect. It offers a large number of parking spaces (free of charge). The outside structure of the restaurant is very inviting and you immediately notice that the meal in this restaurant will be an experience. The food itself is very tasty and offers a good selection of Moldovan dishes. The portions are definitely filling, so even XXL people walk out of here full. The service was nice and customer-oriented and relatively fast. Within 30 minutes, we had all the dishes on the table. All in all, a great experience that I had not expected. Absolutely worth a visit!

Very interesting place with really tasty food. Design is amazing. But the staff is really rude. Doesn't feel like they are welcoming clients.
