Good food and good atmosphere. The only problem I could mention is the bar next door which plays music really loud which gets mixed with the restaurant's music, interesting combination..ALl the rest is great!

Very warm welcome and outstanding care of our daughters needs. Small menu with regional fresh ingredients and all chosen dishes were tasty and very well prepared and presented. Wine recommendation was excellent too. We will definitely return.

We shared the octopus in spicy sauce to start, followed by the linguine with prawns, then we had the catch of the day (sea bass) with crunchy salad, and the other catch of the day (grouper) with onions and tomatoes. All dishes were full of flavour and fresh, and the staff were lovely. We shared a half bottle of the cheapest white wine on the menu which was also very nice. Definitely recommend!

The food, in terms of price, flavor, and portion size, is outrageous: each appetizer averages €30, the first courses even more, each glass of wine €10, and desserts at least €10. They should definitely make slightly larger portions, and the flavor of the various dishes (tagliatelle with shrimp and gnocchi with octopus carbonara) didn't leave any lasting impressions that would make us want to return or recommend it. Sorry!

Barely adequate experience: except for the service, the food was truly too expensive for the quality. read more Barely adequate experience: except for the service, the food was truly too expensive for the quality.
