Service was OK, however the food was not. I am Bulgarian born and went there for an authentic Bulgarian food. The soup was look warm , the tripe was undercooked, kebapcheta were almost raw and tasted old. When I complained about it instead of apologies, I was given the look... To top it off 20% tip was charged on the bill without my consent. This was my first visit to this restaurant and for sure - the last
I just love it,you need to visit and experience by yourself... never disappointed 😉☺️😋
Slow service, disappointing food and overpriced. Do not recommend!
