We would like to invite you to enjoy dinner in little Europe. Our restaurant is fully family-owned. You will meet the grandma who's cooking everyday at the restaurant, you will enjoy our freshly baked bread and delicious food!
The Chanta family invites you to our home, where we will offer you authentic European food, hospitality and warmth! We started our restaurant business in Romania, over 8 years ago and we have three restaurants there. This is our first restaurant in the States, which opened in June 2020. We highly recommend the lamb chops specialty and all the homemade breads we have. The restaurant is beautifully designed for a cozy, intimate dinner. Enjoy your journey!

    This place is a great restaurant if you like homemade meals. The recipes are different but exceptionally flavorful. It's different while still being comfortable and clean. They charge for bread, which I thought was odd, and should be stopped as a policy, and prices are not commiserate with the portions. Still, I don't see that it is higher than Flemming's, Ocean Prime or any other high-end restaurant. However, those companies offer other amenities this property cannot (large wine list, extensive side options, large party accommodations, etc.) Regardless, I recommend Chanta to smaller parties who want to experience ethnic cuisine of high quality, authenticity, and comfort.

    Always a great culinary experience eating at Chanta. Pleasant and friendly staff, excellent service, and, most of all, delicious food. The lamb soecial was tender, tasty, and filling. One of our favorite places to eat in Tampa.
