Reviewers praise Mehana Vitosha's chicken soup as a standout comfort dish, with the overall vibe described as warm and satisfyingly rustic.
“This chicken soup is outstanding. Creamy, rich, chickeny, brothy goodness with plenty of garlic. It tastes like the sachet in chicken super noodles but ramped up — all the flavors and intensity, but with extra bits to elevate it and gorgeous shredded chicken.”

Dishes mentioned
Chicken Soup
This chicken soup is outstanding. Creamy, rich, chickeny, brothy goodness with plenty of garlic. It tastes like the sachet in chicken super noodles but ramped up — all the flavors and intensity, but with extra bits to elevate it and gorgeous shredded chicken.
Chicken Heart with Vegetables
Wow, that is intense in a really good way. Difficult to describe — it's rich, really nice and savory, but still sweet. The heart is nowhere near as tough as I thought, it's really tender. Even the bread is delicious. It smells like peri peri, borrowing similar spices.
Salad with Cheese, Peppers, and Onions
This salad is covered from head to toe in cheese, red peppers, and onions. All that veg is so fresh, and the cheese sort of surrounds everything, giving it a nice salty flavor.
Special Sach
This is a mountain of meat — chicken, lamb, pork with vegetables, all cooked hot and fast in a skillet. It's very similar to a Mexican fajita, with that sizzling presentation. The marinade uses sweet paprika, which gives a really different flavor from the smoked or standard paprika. Who knew Bulgaria had this in the locker?
