CHIOS Social Lounge

Very extravagant and cool place. Location is amazing, with great views over the lake and of the park.

The food is very pricy, but you have a large amount of great options, and with very good taste. This also applies for drinks—I've never seen a menu with this many options for the same type of drink! They also have group meals, which is very much appreciated.

Staff is nice, prompt and professional.

Wait times for the food were very short, this was an amazing experience!

This is of those fine dining restaurants that immediately captivates your attention by its modern, elegant design. The ambiance is complemented by pristine cleanliness throughout the establishment. It offers both indoor and outdoor dining, and if you dine outdoors, you'll find yourself on a terrace that's overlooking the nearby lake, which enhances the overall experience.

Despite its upscale setting, the prices are surprisingly fair considering the impeccable quality of both the cuisine and service.

Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply seeking a memorable dining experience, Chios delivers on all fronts.

I highly recommend this establishment!

Super cool place! We got here in the evening when there was a DJ, great music, nice atmosphere. The stylish interior of the restaurant is located right in the park, near the lake. We ordered a set of burgers. It was really delicious! There was also cheesecake and wine. We liked! Good service! Great mood!

Nice sophisticated place, great food and great customer service.

Beautiful atmosphere by a lake with ducks and black swans.

Chill out music and good food, not cheap but it is worth it.

Vegetarian options.

The staff was very attentive and more than that you can see that the management is very involved, they have a QR and link on the table so you can send directly to them your concerns. That's a really nice way and shows that they're more involved than 99% of the places.
Plus for the spicy stuff they have what you can't find in 99% of the restaurants as well. So definitely they are in the top 1 percent. Plus the location is amazing. So don't look at the nagging reviews about pasta or lemonade. Be sure they have amazing ingredients.

Very nice place by the lake. We only had drinks but the vibe and design were great.

Lovely experience, good food , good vibes

My second time in this place and l really loved it. Last tried l tried the tuna steak, which doesn't seem to feature on the menu anymore. Pitty, cause it was delicious. This time l tried the risotto with edamame and asparagus, also very good. Service was very good and attentive, and the place looks beautiful.

The food was excellent, we didn't have to wait long to be served, and the staff is really nice. Also, the prices are decent, given that this is a central restaurant.

Excellent restaurant, tasty food, clean & beautiful restaurant, friendly staff and great location.
I can recommend T-bone steak.

The place is located right in the park near to the lake. The parking can be tricky there but is the only restaurant that pays your ticket if you park 2 min walk at Sala Polivalenta parking. The serving is very fast and the personnel is nice and friendly. The food is delicious and the atmosphere inside is cosy and looks clean. Enjoy it!

This is a very special venue. We sat outside on the nice round tables, with good lounge music. Also the food is very good. I had baby ribs with sweet potatoes as main; it was so tender the meat just fell off the ribs. As dessert the traditional papanasl (sweet dumplings). Very enjoyable, good atmosphere.

I went there on a Sunday evening. It was not that crowded. The background music wasn't that loud. The food and the service was all good

If you really want something amazing, just go with them.
Excellent atmosphere 👌, fantastic food

We had a dinner with the company but there was no pre-defined particular menu or service, just what the restaurant had to offer, so this is reviewing the restaurant's typical selection of offers. The service was absolutely outstanding and the food was also delicious (one antre wasn't very convincing but the rest of them and the main course in particular were fantastic). The vibe of the restaurant was very nice, with good music, but towards the 10, 11 PM mark the music slowly became very loud to the point it was difficult to have a conversation at the table. Being Friday evening this may be justified as the establishment was probably preparing for an all-nighter for who would be interested in that but for those who would rather sit down and talk this isn't a good setup. But up until that point everything was very nice and impressive and this is not a reason to provide a lower rating. It's simply a matter of tastes as each individual has different preferences in terms on how to spend an evening out in town. So this is merely for people to know and plan accordingly.

I have attached my previous experience with this place. A year later, when I visited chios again, this wasn't the same. From the time we entered it was a bad experience. The service was bad, from the moment we entered we just got the feeling that we werent treated well. First thing we were given a bad seating despite early reservation. Also this is the first time in this country we felt like we were treated bad just because we are not from the same country. There was rudeness and coldness. If we could afford to pay their bills then I believe we are definitely supposed to be treated like any other guest present there. Despite a 50 lei entrance fees and letting us know that the DJ will start by 9, it did not even start till 11:30. Our special day was just ruined!

Tasty food, very nice interior and good service. They have also good wine selection.

So glad we actually stopped here! I was worried it might be too "touristy" but it was great. We got to eat in one of their bubble tables. Service was great and friendly, spoke English and gave us the wifi password for the online menu. The menu is VERY extensive, many options both for food and drinks. Our server recommended some wine for me which I enjoyed and the hubby got some new types of beers. I had the onion soup with was delicious, creamy, tasty and had carmalized onions in it. The hubby got a shrimp pasta dish, which he said was excellent. We were there for lunch and it was a lovely setting on the water watching the paddle boats go out.

Restaurant with a history in Cluj-Napoca, now very elegant and full of style. Staff is polite and professional. Very tasty and various food, but the originality of this places stays in the terrace near the lake. You would have a nice time here, for sure.
