Food was mediocre and cold. Service was bad. Hostess was rude. They messed up the bill and then snuck some sketchy service charges on it. We left before eating dessert and finished up elsewhere. Save your money.

The food was excellent, truly delicious. However, the outdoor seating felt cramped, not because of a lack of space, but because the tables were placed too close together. The service was slow and inattentive — we had to wait about 20 minutes before placing our order. The women’s restroom was closed, so we had to use the men’s restroom (it was clean, but the door wouldn’t close properly). Despite these points, we would definitely come back for the outstanding quality of the food.

Fantastic! The set menu is a value for money. I had the Angus, which was maybe the best dish I ever had. the only knock are the desserts, which are fine, but unimaginative compared to the rest of the menu.

Lovely space, very good food - creative and delicious. Service was a bit slow because the staff was very busy, but overall very very good.

Staff were very friendly and clearly take pride in their food and service. Beautiful restaurant and the food was fantastic. I hesitated writing anything because I don’t want it to be too busy next time I go there.

The wine was perfect. The food very good and interesting. The only thing missing would be sides.

Don’t go here! We where in Cefalu for 4 days and loved the food at all other places. This was by far the worst restaurant.

The service and the restaurant was absolutely fantastic! The food was good. It’s very much a foodie restaurant and the taste were a little exotic for my daughters and I. But I would highly recommend anyone dining here definitely five stars.

Beautiful food and good service. Not on the main drag, which is a positive as it is easy to find and well worth the effort.

Very nice ambience. Food is very good and different from the usual Italian restuarants. Very flavoful and creative. Service is very attentive and they go out of the way to please the turist requests.

The pork belly starter was incredible, and the pasta mains were all delicious as well - including the gluten free ones!

Lovely patio spot, the staff were extremely friendly and made up feel very welcome. Some of them were even singing inside the restaurant. The food was amazing, we enjoyed each dish.
