What guests say about Chevermeto

★★★★★

"We were with the whole family at “Chevermeto” - and it was one of the most beautiful evenings of our entire trip! The restaurant welcomed us with an incredibly warm, authentic atmosphere: Wooden interior, folk art motifs in the decoration - you immediately feel like you are in a real Bulgarian home. The cuisine is beyond praise. The dishes are prepared according to old recipes from all regions of Bulgaria, everything is fresh, hearty, and incredibly delicious. The meat selection particularly impressed us - a large variety for every taste, all prepared with love and homemade charm. However, the absolute highlight of the evening was the folklore program. Singers and dancers - simply fantastic! Live music, colorful costumes, captivating Horo - it was pure pleasure to watch. We haven't experienced such a warm and lively atmosphere in a long time! The service was attentive and warm - the staff always with a smile and without haste. The prices are more than fair for the level of food and show provided."

"What a great local and authentic restaurant. We popped in early on Monday (2nd March) and we couldn't help but wonder what it must be like at peak times because we enjoyed it immensely. There was a real local feel to the place even though it is aimed at showing tourists Bulgarian hospitality. The food was really tasty and it was certainly value for money."

"We ate here as part of a tour group one night. Fantastic live music, dancing and great service with delicious food. Started off with a bowl of salad: tomato, cucumber and cheese, the the main: braised lamb with mashed potato and salad greens, topped off the night with a scrumptious dessert. I have no idea what is was, but it was delicious!!"

"Traditional Bulgarian restaurant with live show in the evenings. Very well prepared and presented food. Very nice setting typical of Bulgaria. Very good value for money. It's worth approaching. It is behind the Palace of Culture and very close to Vitosha Boulevard."
