The lady who is front of house is so lovely, creating a very welcoming vibe as soon as you arrive. There are basically three choices for each course across two different menu options, but still we found it hard to choose as each dish sounded intriguing. With choices made (my husband went for the gourmet option which included lobster and sea bass) and I went for the menu that had veal carpaccio and red mullet. The wine was priced the same as other restaurants as was the food, but both all were just supreme in their quality and presentation. If we were staying longer we would be going again. Booking in advance is essential but I highly recommend you do!

The lady who runs front of house is an outstanding host , efficient, knowledgeable and smiling all the time . Menu layout somewhat confusing, especially for a foreigner but we chose a la carte and the food was creative and delicious.. It’s certainly on the expensive side but memorable .
