Whenever I visit Poiana Brașov and feel like having authentic Romanian food, Șura Dacilor is one of my go-to places. It's much more than just a restaurant—it's an experience. From the moment you walk in, the traditional wooden architecture, rustic décor, and warm atmosphere make you feel like you've stepped back in time.
The menu is packed with Romanian classics, including grilled meats, hearty stews, game specialties, homemade bread, and delicious desserts. The portions are generous, the food is full of flavor, and it's the kind of place where you leave feeling completely satisfied. Whether you're visiting for lunch after a hike or dinner after a day on the slopes, it's a place that truly captures the spirit of Romanian mountain cuisine.
My Tips
One of the biggest advantages is that you'll find a large parking area right next to the restaurant, making it very convenient if you're arriving by car.
If it's your first visit, order traditional Romanian dishes—you'll get the best experience.
The portions are generous, so consider sharing a few dishes if you're with friends or family.
It gets very busy on weekends and during ski season, so I highly recommend making a reservation.
Save room for dessert—the papanași are one of the restaurant's signature treats and definitely worth trying.
