Ahora By Sevda Dimitrova - Sofia

Ahora has always impressed with the quality and innovativeness of the dishes, but this time Miss Dimitrova has mapped down with this latest salad. I don't think I've eaten a more delicious salad in the last half of the year, and I was there. Excellent. The thing should be cut like a stake and my only complaint was I needed sharper knives. Otherwise this salad is heavenly! If you need to bring your friends somewhere really fantasies regarding the quality of food, but not super expensive, that is your place. I'd make strange friends safe.

Great upscale restaurant with fantastic eating, great service and a sense of humor. cozy and beautiful interieur and a quiet atmosphere. one of the sales points is that there is no smoking at all (no iqos or vapes etc.) would definitely recommend!

Great food, great staff, everything was very delicious and beautiful presented. desserts are something special! a restaurant that needs to be visited at least once, but when they visit it once, repeat it

The restaurant of the chef Sevda Dimitrova is the true definition of a hidden gem restaurant in Sofia. Far from the hectic of the center, when you enter Ahora, you are immediately fascinated by the local but elegant interior and the quiet music that plays on the background. The food is very modern and unique and every dish tells a story. The menu is mostly seasonal, so likely you're able to eat what I did, but I strongly recommend you try one of the zero-waste dishes to see how each part of a product can be manipulated and added to the dish for some amazing results. Flavor-wise some of the dishes might have been better, but overall it is a real fine culinary experience to remember. Note that parking can be a problem.

I have not missed a chance to pay Ahora a visit in my last four trips to Bulgaria, what a gem of a restaurant! The atmosphere and interior are so chic and elegant (10/10), and so is the presentation. Oh the food! How good the food is! Modern takes on some classic Bulgarian and European dishes. My favourite so far must have been the incredible strawberry gaspacho, followed by a truffle and asparagus dish! Every plate at Ahora tells a story and I cannot wait to get more of it, 10/10 for flavour! I've been there for lunch four times in the last year and each time is better than the previous. In fact, I don't think I've been to any other restaurant 4 times in a single calendar year since 2019! This should go to show you Ahora's level of gastronomy. In my last visit I got to meet head chef Sevda, who is kind, polite and attentive. Looking forward to an opportunity to try the blue eggs Benedict.
