Guide Commentary
# PASQUALE | brunch & dinner: Cluj-Napoca's Authentic Italian Destination PASQUALE has quietly become one of Cluj-Napoca's most compelling dining destinations, earning a stellar 4.8-star rating across over 1,100 reviews[1]. This intimate Italian restaurant on Str. Napoca delivers genuine culinary craftsmanship without pretension. The kitchen demonstrates real technical skill—their Neapolitan pizzas feature properly fermented dough and carefully sourced ingredients, while their pasta dishes, particularly the pesto rosso, showcase the kind of quality that comes from genuine attention to detail[2][5]. The cozy, compact space creates an unexpectedly romantic atmosphere perfect for date nights or small celebrations, and the staff consistently impresses with genuine warmth and attentiveness even during busy service[4]. Generous portions paired with thoughtful pricing make the value proposition compelling. Regulars return obsessively—some visiting daily during their Cluj stays—drawn by the Italian Benedict at brunch, the legendary pumpkin tart, and dishes like the mortadella burger that reveal the kitchen's playful confidence[2]. This is destination dining for those who appreciate authenticity and care in execution.

One of the best places for brunch in Cluj! Friendly staff, good prices, delicious food! Would totally recommend.
Great place for brunch or dinner. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming. There are quite a few brunch options and all at decent prices. The server was attentive and friendly, even when the restaurant was full. Indoor seating is limited, so making a reservation beforehand is probably a good idea. I only wish I had found this spot sooner.
A very good choice for brunch or dinner. The food is delicious and the portions are very generous. The place is small, which creates a cozy and intimate atmosphere. The staff is very attentive and the service was excellent. Since there are only a few tables inside, making a reservation is highly recommended. There are also tables outside on the terrace during the warm season, which is a lovely option. I highly recommend trying the vitello tonnato and the fish & chips, both were excellent. They have the best focaccia I tried on a while. The restaurant offers great value for money, and a nice bonus is that still and sparkling water are on the house. Special thanks to David for the wonderful service!
We discovered it a few weeks ago when we came for Electric Castle and we came daily during our stay in Cluj. We are now back for Untold and still coming daily to eat here. Food is absolutely delicious, the plate is always full, the coffee is very good and the girl here is very nice and friendly. We also recommended it to our friends and they were also impressed. We will keep coming back here for lunch or brunch everytime we are in Cluj. This is one of the best places to eat and chill ☺️
The place is nice and I had a good time! The food is good, and the burger has a nice Italian place with mortadella, even if it was a bit overcooked. The wine menu could be improved on glass. The staff was new, but handled it well. Lovely outdoor seating.
