Not a 5* restaurant but as far as I am concerned a 5* service and 5* for food quality and taste.We were tended to by two local women; the menu has a reasonable range for such a small place.

I don't even know where to start - the service was outstanding, but the food was truly exceptional. read more I don't even know where to start - the service was outstanding, but the food was truly exceptional.
