Very tasty dishes and generous portions. The truth is that the food is not as gourmet as you might expect, however the chef explained (to his credit) that the Thessaloniki market does not allow him to go this extra mile with using super exclusive ingredients. Nevertheless the food is top quality and the price is more than fair. All dishes were presented beautifully.

We ordered the pork belly and the rib eye, both were excellent. But the beef skirt steak was just mind blowing. I totally recommend going to this restaurant even though it is pretty far from the city centre.

They brought a bottle of water right away as it was hot despite being around 7pm. The food is as good as it sounds on the menu. Sadly they had run out of beef tartar so I ll have to come back to taste this one. I had the mushroom risotto and my friend had a beef tagliata. Sometimes risotto can be hit or miss but Both the risotto and the beef were cooked to perfection. I was prepared for gourmet portions but I have to say I had hard time finishing my plate. Even more so the salad was good to feed 4 people! Considering the fresh ingredients and preparation that goes into every dish, the prices are very reasonable. I'd say it's value for money for the service that you get. I found the portions very generous! Overall it was a very positive experience both food wise and atmosphere wise. I will definitely be coming back to check more of the menu!
