Some of the issues were: They ask you if you want rice or noodles with your dish, but they don’t clarify that it isn’t included. The size of the dish was big enough to end up paying 6 euros for some noodles or rice you won’t finish As soon as you sit down, they ask you if you want some water. They bring you a 750cc (25oz, not too big) bottle of filtered water, and they keep bringing it refilled whenever it runs out. They never tell you (and we didn’t see it on the menu) that is 3 Euros for each bottle. So if it’s hot and you’re thirsty you might end up paying 15 euros per table on just filtered water that seemed as complimentary The staff sometimes was on top of every move you made, refilling water or wine as soon as anyone ran out of it on their glass, but at the end to get the check it was like 20 mins to get someone to come to the table, and another 15 to get them to bring the card machine. We ended up going to the reception to pay there. Some deserts are good, like the Mango, but “After Eight” is a scam. It’s just one ball of mint ice cream for 7 euros. No liquor taste, anything. The light outside is too low, even making it hard to see what you’re eating sometimes At the end they bring you a tablet with the bill, and if you ask them for a proper bill they ask you to go inside. This seems like they are avoiding to make proper receipts and paying the taxes for some of the meals.

If ingredient is not available it is left out or suitable alternative used that can cab be found on a Thai Market. You will not get broccoli in your Green currency! Lovely atmosphere and you are made to feel very welcome. The only downside to this restaurant is parking as of Feb 2024 the council are replacing the calcadas in the back streets which makes parking close by difficult especially for those with walking problems. I have those problems but the effort is well worth it. Next time we go we are going to pre order dishes we know and like 24 hour before we go. These will be cooked for us when we get there. Cannot wait see you soon. Thanks again regards John and Lynn
