Constantinoff RestoBar is a modern restaurant and bar at 31-33 Vitosha Boulevard in the centre of Sofia, Bulgaria. It combines a Balkan and European menu with a bar-led atmosphere, making it equally suited to a business lunch, a weekend brunch or a long dinner with cocktails. The cuisine is contemporary and produce-conscious rather than formally fine dining, and no Michelin credential applies. Signature dishes include tartares, grilled meats, risottos and house-made charcuterie, the last of which is a calling card of the kitchen and often appears on sharing boards. The menu mixes familiar Bulgarian flavours with broader European techniques, and seasonal specials are common. Weekend brunch is a regular feature and attracts a younger local crowd. The dining room is stylish, bright by day and dimmer in the evening, with a boulevard-facing presence and some outdoor seating in warm months. The mood is social and moderately loud, particularly on Friday and Saturday nights when the bar fills, and the usual dress is smart-casual. The beverage programme is a strength: cocktails, Bulgarian and international wines by the glass, craft and imported beers, and spirits including rakia are all offered. Prices are upper mid-range for Sofia, with mains typically around 20 to 40 BGN and a dinner with drinks about 50 to 80 BGN per person. Reservations are recommended for dinner, particularly from Thursday to Saturday, and booking a day or two ahead is normally sufficient. Brunch tables at weekends are also easier to secure by reserving. Lunch on weekdays is calmer, with walk-ins usually possible.
