★ 3.8 / 5 (817 reviews)

This cozy restaurant offers a mix of highs and lows. While the steak special turned out more like a stew and the vegetables had a strange taste, the friendly staff stood out. Some customers experienced disappointing service, including one group being turned away before closing time.

Overall, the venue offers delicious food and a warm atmosphere, but some feel the prices are too steep for what is offered.

The dining experience was absolutely amazing, with the staff being very attentive. I wish I had room for two servings of the Steak Special as it was truly something special. After being in the countryside for over a week, this was my favorite meal.
