Located at the foothills of Vitosha mountain "Off the beaten path " ,among fresh green forest and mountain air, the Vodenitzata is a folklore complex in an old water mill with an open air garden just above Dragalevtzi river. Built out of stone and wood - the traditional materials used in Renaissance achitecture "Vodenitzata" is a must if you wanna try home made traditional bulgarian cuisine, presented in folklore atmosphere from dressed in national costumes waiters.
The comfortable hall has 200 places, and a sunny garden with 250 places. The rich collection of bulgarian fine wines and matured rakija / bulgarian national drink,makes Vodenitzata a place for connoisseurs of good drinks and fine food.
The walls are decorated with wild ducks, and other game animals , costumes and other folklore objects.
The garden among the woods of Dragalevzi with the reconstructed water mill wheel, the pond and lots of green offers aswell a relaxing atmosphere in the summer months.
For guests coming by car, the restaurant has a guarded parking lot.

The Watermill has great food at great prices. At the time of this picture there was a traditional bulgarian band performing bulgarian folk music and 2 people fire walking. It is an outdoor restaurant located in the mountain area looking down on the city of Sofia.
Favorite Dish: I will provide more information on this great restaurant soon.

While you are enjoying your delicious specialties you can see the beautiful folklore show they perform which is a blend of beautiful national costumes, original folk music and songs, lively dances and something very special - fire dancing.
Favorite Dish: The restaurant is specialized in Traditional Bulgarian cuisine - the unique Bulgarian yogurt, Shopska salad, grills and typical Bulgarian dishes like kavarma, kebap in a pot, kapama, chicken cooked in a miller’s way.......Maybe all this things sound strange to you but that is your chance to become familiar with Bulgarian cuisine during your holiday. You only have to try!
