The closest full restaurant to the castle entrance, Corvinus serves straightforward Romanian cooking at reasonable prices. The menu runs to grilled meats, sarmale, and a decent ciorba de burta (tripe soup) for the adventurous. The terrace has a partial view of the castle towers, which makes it the obvious choice for a meal before or after your visit. Service is efficient if unhurried; it gets busy on summer weekends when tour groups arrive from Cluj-Napoca.
