Lacrimi si Sfinti

  Str. Sepcari 16 ,   Old Town          (+4) 0372 77 39 99     more than a year ago
This place is the creation of Romanian poet, revolutionary and raconteur Mircea Dinescu. As much a showcase for the amazing wines Dinescu produces on his country estate as anything else, the food is also fabulous: a selection of traditional Romanian dishes given a playful, modern twist. Indeed, just about everything served here comes from Dinescu's own estate. The roasted duck with cabbage and the courgette patties are our particular favourites on the menu: look out for the daily specials (chalked up on a blackboard) too. The prices are decent enough - although not cheap, but quality this high never can be - and the place is charmingly decorated. You will want to stay way after you have finished your meal.

Best restaurant we went to while we were in Bucharest. It's as good as it gets and the tiny courtyard at the back is a real hideaway even people eating inside do not seem to know about!

The food was spectacular the setting charming and a unique escape from the typical international fare of Bucharest. It's wonderful way to sample a wide range of Romanian dishes in a unique setting! As we understand the poet anti-communist dissident owner has a lot of so called 'friends' that are active on posting fake negative comments all over the web.We highly recommend it. Dig into that red wine ice cream. Go early so you have daylight time to stroll around the Old Quarter of Bucharest.

I've been twice in Lacrimi si sfinti and both times I have been huge dissapointed about the service and the restaurant in general. First of all the restaurant is well overpriced just because Mr. Dinescu and the other share holder are famous in town....I don't think that I have to pay for that. The food is tasty but the portions have the same size as 20 years ago small terrible small as example I had iahnie with goos but there was no goose!!!!! My partner asked for a traditional tuica and believe my I know what tuica means but this one smelled horrible. Never the less the waiters and amators was very obvious that there was no supervisor or manager on the floor. May be it sounds to hash but personally I will never visit that place again.

Dear Mr. SR (from Paris - such a beautiful African muslim city) Why don't you reveal your full name? I am so sorry for not being able to swear at you in French. I hope you learned some English in that muslim city you wrote from if not then grab a dictionnary. The name "Lacrimi si Sfinti" in other words "Tears and Saints" are much higher spiritually speaking than just Garde de Fer or Cioran or the legionnaires. The Romanians poured too many tears and sacrified too many good souls (which are true saints) along their history to keep this little piece of land called Romania while the French savaged and desecrated tens of colonies stole their resources and decimated their populations. And I bet they laughed doing that not cried. Has any French been sanctified for using slaves from those colonies? If yes then French shouldn't be Christiens (actually according to the pictures I have seen from Paris outskirts French are converting to islam quite fast).F**k you mr. sr for dearing to comment on the name of that restaurant. Indeed "quelle tristesse" to see the French not mind their own problems.

C'est le restaurant des gardes de Fer? Pourquoi ce nom inspiré du vecu légionnaire de Cioran? Je croyais que c'est le restaurant de Vadim Tudor je ne m'attendais pas du tout que Dinescu qui avait l'air plus éclairé puisse adopter un titre si pathetique et sinistre. Quelle tristesse et quel pays!
