That said, the timing really let the experience down. We ended up waiting over two hours for our meal, which was completely unexpected. It also didn’t seem to be just our table—pretty much everyone around us was waiting as well, despite the restaurant not even being full. What made it more frustrating was that no one on the staff gave any heads-up about the delay. If we had known the kitchen was that backed up, we would have planned differently. The team is friendly and attentive in general, but not communicating such long wait times puts guests in an awkward position. Great food can carry a place far, but without transparency on service timing, it’s hard to fully enjoy it.

A lovely place, everyone is friendly and helpful. It's family-run, and the chef is young but very talented. Excellent, high-quality food. read more A lovely place, everyone is friendly and helpful. It's family-run, and the chef is young but very talented. Excellent, high-quality food.

We know and appreciate that the restaurant is directly managed by the owners, which often leads to a special attention to quality. However, the wait was quite long: more than 45 minutes for the main course, which can impact the overall experience. The staff was friendly and helpful, but the wait times were hard to ignore. That said, the food was excellent, and I would probably return, hoping for slightly faster service.
