The menu was rather too extensiv for our taste as we prefer a smallish menu with all the items prepared at the moment. The waiter was very positive on all the items including two different types of risotto which made us somewhat sceptical. As a chef, I know that you will not prepare a risotto plate for one person, so many of the plates have to be precooked which is not too helpful for the quality.We had one vegarian dish and one fish plate which were well prepared, the "amuse bouche" offered by the house was delicious.The wine list was disappointing as out of the 4 syrah wines, only one was available, despite the many well-known labels mentionned.Overall, a pleasant experience when you restrict yourself to the freshly prepared plates.

They have only fresh fish - maybe one or two kinds, but the menu lists all the ways they will prepare it. Also really fresh oysters. Had fun. The server was hilarious too.
