Antipasti were excellent. Primi (carbonara) were heavy and too salty. Our second was monkfish, dry overcooked. Very disappointing meal. Service also could have been better. We poured our own wine all evening. 🤷‍♀️

Dear Mr./Ms. Rischikof, We are sorry to read your negative review. However, we would like to clarify that the carbonara you mentioned as “too salty” does not contain added salt; its savory flavor comes from the Pecorino Romano cheese, which is traditionally used in this dish according to culinary tradition. As for the wine, it is not standard practice in non-starred restaurants to pour wine for guests throughout the evening. Furthermore, we are puzzled by your review, as when we asked at the table if everything had been to your satisfaction, you actually complimented us. We wish you a pleasant day. Sincerely, The Staff

We enjoyed a very nice meal on our first night in Reggio Calabria. It is quite a small restaurant but with good decor and a nice feel. Good range of fish dishes at reasonable prices. It was a Sunday evening and we ate early so it was lacking in ambiance with no other tables taken. Would recommend it based on the quality of the food.

Too expensive

We do not understand your review. The prices were public at the time of booking on the website. You ordered a dish and water for €17. If you had informed us about this on-site, we would have seated you on the side of the shop where you could have eaten two sandwiches for €10. We regret the review, which we see as negative, considering you hardly ate anything.
