We tried our first natural oysters, and they were fantastic! The highlight for me was the delicious brown fish—I can't recall having anything quite like it. It's not often you find octopus claws in a fish restaurant, unless you go to a Greek place in England. The mussels were also amazing! On top of that, the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. We were so happy to have discovered this place to celebrate our special occasion!

We weren't 100% sure what to expect when we booked, but the seafood platter was great, nice classy vibes and the staff were friendly and prompt. For us (couple coming without kids) it was a plus that it was a calm place where kids and dogs aren't allowed too. Slightly pricey but worth it.

Upon ringing the doorbell, the ambiance felt serene. A staff member welcomed us and escorted us upstairs, where we underwent a temperature check, which was quite reassuring. Then the experience truly began. The view over the harbor from the restaurant is absolutely fantastic. The staff are incredibly helpful and friendly, demonstrating a deep knowledge of the menu. If you love seafood, this place is a must-visit—the dishes are exceptional. We even had the chance to speak with the owner, who shared insightful knowledge about the city and the restaurant’s offerings. Thanks to their hospitality and the delicious food, we will definitely make the trip again. P.S. The octopus was outstanding!

Although it wasn't the cheapest option (as the collection below offers more affordable choices), it was a very enjoyable experience.
