Dont let the modest settings sway you. The couple who owns and operates this bistro are wonderful. Very friendly. The food. Amazing. My wife is Romanian and absolutely loved the food and said it was very authentic and excellently prepared. Me? My wife rarely prepares Romanian food. This was a major treat. We'll be back. On a regular basis. :)
I am enjoying such a wonderful lunch at Sunset Bistro!! The food is incredible and so delicious ....I am having a portabella mushroom sandwich and homemade sweet potato fries .... Excellent staff..excellent friendly atmosphere and prices! I will definitely be coming back!!!
Just like mom and grandma's cooking. Can't wait to try their entire menu. Finally a Romanian restaurant with good Romanian food.
The kek was top. I love coffee kek.
Didn't expect this place to be so good. Very nice traditional Romanian food. Very nice atmosphere. Very friendly stuff. Definitely worth to give it a shot and surprise yourself with really nice food. Stuffed Bell Pepper was a major killer.
Cool atmosphere, amazing romanian food and awesome people, what else could you ask for?
Wonderful authentic Romanian food, just the way I remembered it from home!! Our kids loved the soup and the schnitzel! Very hospitable hosts as well, besides the good food we also enjoyed a nice conversation about Romanian cuisine :). Will definitely go again!
Delicious food in a friendly and welcoming environment! Can't wait to go back! Ps: the crepes are to die for!
Great mici sausages and stuffed cabbage. Romanian cuisine is influenced by other nearby cuisines, it's good.
Delicious Romanian food, a great new family owned/operated restaurant with amazing food :)

Great experience!
Renton is a bit out of our way, so we tried other Romanian restaurants/food dishes near Seattle first. This was our first time visiting Sunset Bistro, I absolutely love the way the owners treated us and the food was delicious! Although is quite far from where we live, I am actually wanting to go back, whenever I miss home!
I appreciate the authenticity and it's great that the owners are very implicated in the restaurant.
Thank you for a wonderful afternoon!
I tried the cabbage rolls and the spring salad. First the spring salad- if you love tomatoes , which were very fresh, just cut for this salad, as much as I do you will love this salad. It’s very basic, not overwhelming, the red onions, tomatoes and I little drizzle of olive oil, I put salt and pepper on mine. It’s the way I would have it at home and I like that!
Now the cabbage rolls, very flavorful, served with polenta and sour cream. The portion was the perfect size and the sauce was amazing. The stuffing inside the cabbage was spiced just right. I will definitely be back- next time I will try the chicken sandwich that another diner (a regular) recommended! If you want something different then the same thing - Mexican, American, Asian, try this place!
A true taste of the Romanian culinary tradition!
In one of my numerous travels, I had the opportunity to enjoy the delicious food served at the Sunset Bistro, and can vouch for the authenticity and the quality of the dishes served here. The bistro is "spic-and-span", and the white table cloth with the blue rectangle on the top is reminiscent of the restaurants of Romania proper. In addition, the customer service provided by the two owners, Mariana and Florin Dumitrescu, is outstanding! From the perspective of a very picky eater, the restaurant definitely got my attention.Many thanks you to both of you! I certainly hope will we meet again. ;)
The atmosphere is cozy but what impressed me the most is the food of course. The cabbage rolls were so good. I also ordered a gyro plate to go. Meat perfectly seasoned and tender. I will revisit this quaint Romanian bistro for sure!
I got take out today and this place is absolutely incredible. The dining room and restrooms are spotless and they have charming Romanian decorations around the restaurant. The food is honestly the best I’ve had in the greater Seattle area - the Sarmale (cabbage rolls) and polenta in particular are very authentic and delicious. I will DEFINITELY be returning to try more food.
Hidden gem. Whether you want something from the continent (Gyro, Schnitzel, Greek Salad, Shaorma) or want to venture a little further into Eastern Europe (Pork Steak, Stuffed Cabbage Rolls, Meatball Soup, Eggplant Salad) the food is authentic, the hosts are welcoming and attentive. Support this local business, the food is wonderful.
Never ever tried Romanian food before.
Had the #1, the cabbage rolls.
It was scary. Will I like it? Took a bite. Hmmm. Not bad. Add salt. Oh, that's good. What's this weird yellow stuff (polenta)? And the white stuff? Took a bite of the polenta. Hmmm. Grabbed another bite, put some sour cream on it, dipped it into the red sauce.
Oh, that's good too!
In the end, it was delicious. It's a great change of pace from the places I normally eat (Japanese, Chinese, Mexican, and Italian)
Glad I finally got to stop by.
