It was practically empty at lunchtime, with only five tables occupied, and it's no wonder. The restaurant doesn't attract customers at all. They should put some soft, quiet music in the background and put the menu by the entrance so people passing by can look at it. It all looks a bit dull. The menu is generally varied and you'll find both fish and meat. There's also a fixed menu for 23 euros without drinks. It includes first and second courses. I had burrata and a typical pasta for this region; I wanted to try it. The presentation of the dish is also dismal I liked the pasta, be sure to try it. The service is attentive, but not intrusive. Coperto 3 euros. The bill for one person antipasti, primo piato, water, coffee) 30 euros. Overall, the restaurant can be good if you run it, but who am I to tell people how to run their business.

Nice food, but the prices were a bit high for what they have offered. read more Nice food, but the prices were a bit high for what they have offered.
