Fodor's Expert Review Forest Restaurant

True to its name, this upscale eatery sits at the back of a boutique hotel and is built into the hillside amongst the trees; these and the resident bunnies running around give the feeling of dining al fresco, even in Romania's icy winters. Visit the wine cellar with the hotel's sommelier to taste a few options before settling down with the menu, which is more like a thick photo album with detailed captions. The food is on the heavy side—pork ribs with baked potatoes, duck breast with pineapple, baked lamb—but local river fish are also available, as are salads. The chocolate fondant with vanilla ice cream gets two thumbs up.

The restaurant has crayons and coloring books, high chairs, and a supervised play area.
