I was there for a wedding reception that took place inside the restaurant and not on the terrace, although the terrace was full of customers. The restaurant is located in the leisure area called "3 insule" in an ex building that belonged to an ex corporation during communist regime. The renovation is great, the building looks extraordinary similar to a ship. The restaurant is a spin off hotel Phoenix so the services and the quality is very high. The food was amazing and also the plating. If you ever want to escape the town and relax in the "Ceala" forest near Mures river, this is the place to be. Attention : You need to cross a temporary bridge over the river

We had a very nice surprise to find this restaurant. Situated outside of the Arad town, in a beautiful forrest, you should cross a suspencion bridge over the Mures river to get the restaurant. The location is beautiful and food excellent. Personnel are very nice as well. Altough we did not have reservation, they found a table for us. We ate pasta with shrimps and somon (delicious), penne quatro formaggi, beef soup and cezar salad and all dishes was perfect. I totally recommend it!
