"Passing through Târgu Mureș, we stopped to visit the citadel and had some drinks at Luar. The service was great, our waiter was nice enough to even recommend other places to vizit around the city. This is a great location for a walk around the citadel followed by some refreshments."

"Always a pleasure. The food is very tasty (we tried here loaded fries, burgers - chutney is my favourite, pizza, pasta, pancakes) and we liked it. Also the cocktails and coffee are great. When we ask for less or no ice in the iced coffee, they always make sure it’s how we want it. Cozy, in one of the hearts of the city."

"The food was good, my family enjoyed it a lot, I had pasta carbonara and it was too salty, but I'm very difficult when it's about pasta (thus is probably just a matter of taste). I did eat it, because I was very hungry. The service was great thanks to Barni (fast, friendly and professional). The place is welcoming inside and outside. The rest of the menu is diverse and the coffee was well made. The pancakes I saw next to our table were looking amazing. I recommend the place ."

"A restaurant right in the fortress, with tables both inside and outside. The meniu is varied, but not too large, more on the fast-food side. We've visited multiple times and everything we tried so far was good (pizza, desserts, drinks, etc). The service is sometimes a bit slow, but the place is lovely and easily accessible."
