We had two heavenly meals which consisted of duck and salmon accompanied by the best tasting fresh vegetables. We considered the price (25E) including sweet was very reasonable for such a delightful meal and setting. The owner/chef took time to chat to us and made us feel welcome. The young waiter was helpful, but still learning, therefore being on holiday and having all the time in world to sit and enjoy the surroundings this did not matter to us. We would definately go back again. Thank you for a lovely experience.

They feature market fresh food, presented very nicely and offer happy hour wines for 3 Euros/glass. Excellent veal chop, scallops, and duck breast on the 2 course 22 euro menu. The only thing marring a delightful dinner in a great location was the poor service from a waiter who was seemingly clueless about how to keep an order straight.

We tested the tapas, I had never tasted the raw lard ... the rest of the charcuterie was quick to eat. The beef piece was nervous so hard to chew, the homemade fried apples have nothing to envy to those of a large American fast food chain. Lamb skewers were as strong as game, which made us doubt when the product was fresh. All for a relatively expensive price. Beautiful decor, beautiful wine map (the only thing that was good), but service to review.
