I sat next to the kitchen so it's no surprise why: the small plates and pasta are made fresh but the mains are pre-made and microwaved to order.

Nice place, not huge, but comfortable. Service was courteous and friendly, and especially fast.

Excellent food: stewed cuttlefish and Venetian-style cod served with polenta, delicious. Two main courses, two medium beers, two covers, €38.
