Came in for the burger as it was highly recommended. Unfortunately was disappointing. Nothing special. Yes had their “gold standard” ($24) Nothing extravagant or special. The goat cheese was overwhelming and dripped grease and oil. The fries ($8) were over seasoned and over salted. I was starving so I ate everything, but wouldn’t come back. The ladies behind the counter were top notch. Service couldn’t not have been better. Real pros. Their beer options appeared impressive but they were out of the one I wanted so I stuck with water.

Came here just for drinks. A great atmosphere and space. And the music wasn’t too loud so you can hear each other speak. Got lucky and found two seats at the bar. Ordered old fashioned. Wasn’t great, but I’m picky about how they should taste. Staff was exceptional. Real professionals. I’d come back. Might have to make reservations though. Even on a Tuesday night the place was packed.

Weekday dining is great. No crowds, not loud and a chill environment. Ive had better Katsu elsewhere but the edemame and cauliflower bites were excellent. Strongly recommend. Staff was excellent but couldn’t keep up with our water requests. Next time just leave the bottle dude.
Private Hell

Loved the name of the bar and I do have an appreciation for metal. But the bartender was not welcoming and kind put off by me. He was really nice to the 3 guys wearing the black leather jackets with zippers. Maybe I should have worn the right jacket. Nevertheless - only bottled beers here. Nothing on tap. It’s a hole in the wall kind of place but what would you expect from a place called private hell, right? Not sure if it was meant to be poetic or not. Yes my pilsener was 12 lei so affordable but, again it’s a bottle. There are a couple of 2nd level platforms (see pic from one of them). The bathroom had no paper towels. I can see why others might find this place charming. But I don’t think it’s for everyone. And I think they are fine with that.

I was looking for a traditional pub to have a pint and watch some football but the place was more a rock bar, playing really loud rock music (it was good music but tough to watch a football match this way), but I’m guessing this was more because it was a Friday evening and isn’t typical. It is also a much older crowd which is what confused me about the loud rock music. They do have Caffreys!!
