“ Great atmosphere, surprisingly fast service, too bad the food did not lived up to the expectations. Unfortunately the food looks way better than it tastes, however I'll give it another shot in the future as the place itself is really nice, makes you forget that you are in the city surrounded by concrete and cars. ”
“ Everything was delicious, with generous portion sizes. The desserts, specially crafted for Valentine’s, were both beautiful and flavorful. The atmosphere was truly romantic, not only because of the igloo setting but also thanks to the music and decorations. ”
“ Cozy spot that feels like a holiday at the beach. We sat on the sand by the water. Good food, fair prices and friendly staff. ”
“ The location is special; we stayed in the beach area and it was very nice. ”
“ Had an incredible experience at this restaurant! The service was top-notch, with the staff being attentive, friendly, and quick to accommodate your needs. The food was absolutely amazing—each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The highlight, though, was the stunning view. Dining with such a breathtaking backdrop made the entire experience feel special. It was the perfect blend of great service, delicious food, and an unforgettable atmosphere. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a fantastic meal! ”
“ I've visited Indigen first time about a year and a half ago and I loved it. The food was different, flavourfull and rich in taste and aroma. I revisited now full of hope and awaiting for the same experience and I was disappointed. The food was good, but not extraordinary in any way, it was blend and basic. Still ok for a good bite if your hungry, but not a culinary experience ”
“ One of my favorite places to be! The atmosphere is the best, cocktails are tasty, the place is clean, food is ok, service is ok. But the view and the location - is everything! The only thing missing is maybe more starters or things to share at a table. Some crazy fries or something similar. ”
“ This place is a real hidden gem. When you enter the garden it feels like you get out of Bucharest in a nature oasis. The food is good, but we only got the low calorie crispy chicken salad and the risotto salmon ( which was delicious ). Probably if you get the calorie heavy hitters those are more delicious. Even so, this place is a great spot for relaxing and eating some good food, totally recommend ”
