The best restaurants Vama Veche

Rogojini took up residence on the waterfront over twenty years ago. The all-wooden dining room, with its large bay windows, blue benches and fishing nets, is a touch kitsch, but very welcoming. The menu features pizzas, meat dishes and an interesting selection of fish, including one of the Black Sea specialties: rapane, a mollusc that arrived in the 1930s from the Sea of Japan via the hulls of merchant ships. Prices are fair and service pleasant.

As the name suggests, this restaurant mainly serves meats of all kinds (Angus beef, burgers, etc.), although the menu also includes fish. It's simple and well done. When it comes to wine, you'll be spoilt for choice from the 150 or so references, mainly Romanian. The homemade iced tea is delicious. The vast dining room is furnished in Scandinavian style, with a mix of white, wood and acidic touches. Its large windows overlook the beach. This is one of the few year-round establishments in Vama Veche.
