About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
We would like to invite you to enjoy dinner in little Europe. Our restaurant is fully family-owned. You will meet the grandma who's cooking everyday at the restaurant, you will enjoy our freshly baked bread and delicious food!
The Chanta family invites you to our home, where we will offer you authentic European food, hospitality and warmth! We started our restaurant business in Romania, over 8 years ago and we have three restaurants there. This is our first restaurant in the States, which opened in June 2020. We highly recommend the lamb chops specialty and all the homemade breads we have. The restaurant is beautifully designed for a cozy, intimate dinner. Enjoy your journey!

    Chanta never disappoints, which is why we keep going back. We started with the octopus and prosciutto with mozzarella. My husband had the Snapper and I had the Salmon in a champagne sauce. I also never pass up the opportunity to have their creamy mushrooms. Everything was delicious! Finally, we brought home a margarita pizza for our son and 2 orders of papanasi donuts with jam and Nutella.

    The food was delicious as usual. The outdoor area was lovely and very European. The only miss was the pace of the dishes; everything was brought out at once, which made us feel a bit rushed. Overall, this is our third time coming and we’ll keep coming back.

    I absolutely loved the dinner I had at Chanta. We started with placinta which was a cheesy bread that was amazing. I had the Romanian stew which was 10/10 and my sister had the chicken paprikash that was delicious as well!! For desert we shared papanashi which was a donut with cream sauce and Nutella which we were both pleasantly surprised by! Overall the dinner was amazing and the ambience of the restaurant is quiet and quaint. We will definitely be going back to try more dishes!
