Nice ambiance and decor - service was good. Regarding the food concept and the experience I am a bit puzzled. Certain dishes like the squid were outstanding in terms of freshness and quality. Same with the eggplants. Rice dishes are only available upon pre order. I have had better experiences in the region when it comes to creative and modern cooking.

For this reason, our rice dishes are available only by pre-order: this is stated on our website, and when making a reservation we inform guests that they must be ordered at least 4 hours in advance to ensure the highest quality. We truly value your feedback, which helps us to keep improving, and we look forward to welcoming you back so you can enjoy more of the dishes on our menu.
