Friendly staff and tasty food, but ambience needs improvement. While the service was warm and the dishes delicious, the dining experience was affected by the environment. The main room had a strong food smell, suggesting poor ventilation, and the back area was quite noisy—likely due to a lack of proper acoustic treatment. With some upgrades to the space, this place could be truly great.
De Kale Pater • Owner
Dear Amadeu, Thank you for your honest and constructive feedback. We’re happy to hear you enjoyed our dishes and the warm service, but we’re equally grateful for your remarks about the ventilation and acoustics. We take these points seriously and are actively exploring improvements to create a more comfortable and balanced dining experience. Your input helps us grow, and we hope to welcome you back in the future under better conditions.

The staff were very attentive and the food was great. It was busy in the restaurant but it had a cozy vibe. They even read the comments in my reservation and left a lovely rose on the table for my fiancé. Thanks for a lovely evening.

Thank you so much, Devan! We’re delighted to hear that your evening was so special and that our small gesture with the rose made an impression. It’s wonderful to know you felt the cozy atmosphere despite the busy night. We hope to welcome you and your fiancé back again soon for another memorable visit!
