Conacul Verde

Transylvania


This solid, though stodgy, bistro serves a grab-bag of Italian, Romanian and Chinese dishes, for times when you want to start with Transylvanian soup in a bread bowl and finish with penne quattro formaggi. The enormous sharing platters of grilled meat and veggies seem designed as drinking fuel.

Conacul Verde offers takeaway and home delivery too.
