Interesting preparations with very attractive presentations. Very convivial service. Excellent varied wine list with a wide selection of very good wines at under 6 Euros per glass. That is pretty amazing. Bottle prices were very well valued as well. Would definitely recommend a visit.

Welcoming was nice as they knew our names from the reservation. Read we received didn’t really seem fresh and there was no olive oil or so. Food we ordered was good but pricey in relation to other restaurants in the area. Plus, it was partially cold. This is not the standard we expected and which really disappointed us. Wine instead was really good, so was the dessert. Service was ok but nothing special. Waiter never refilled glasses.

I ordered medium rare meat and got well done… I didn't get a clear answer to my comment to the waiter as to why. It seems to me that the restaurant's rating regarding the quality of food is greatly overrated.

Deservedly popular restaurant with great choices and quality dishes. Essential to book for restaurant but they have an area across the alley for heated out door dining and were accepting some walk-ins.

Food was lovely. Service was rushed and indifferent. Really sad as we were really looking forward to this. Probably wouldn’t go back in all honesty.

We bookes a table for 6 but got a table for 4. They easily changed to 6, but it was a bit small. Took to long time to order and get the food

Our ordered meal arrived 40 minutes later. My choice (veal was raw). Asked for the manager who attended reasonably promptly and agreed with what we said. An extremely rude member of staff who actually laughed for some unexplained reason when I complained initially. Never again. Booked this on previous good reviews.

A bit more explanation of the dishes would’ve been good and as we were outside there was a guy who smoked 3 cigarettes right beside our table, not much could be done about this inconsiderate individual who wasn’t at the restaurant.

The chef is clearly a food artist. Each dish was surprising in presentation and taste. The combination of ingredients elevated a common dish to a new level. The service was attentive, pleasant and helpful. We sat on the out door patio which was enjoyable.

Portion sizes were perfect for trying a lot of dishes, sharing some, keeping others all for myself. Eggplant flan, Ravioli and lamb were my favorites. Servers were attentive but not overbearing. Pace was just right.
