My god. I can’t say enough about this little gem. Try the “special pie”, you’ll thank me. The house wine is amazing. The atmosphere and service is amazing. Definitely make some time to check this little place out.

Incredible. Fantastic food, service and ambience. The chocolate mousse might have been my favorite dessert of all time.

It was quite warm and perhaps a little cramped. The food was OK but perhaps a little variable in preparation and pricing

Overall it was very good, the main course was delicious. The bread before the meal was very hard and worth 5.5 euros. It would be better to change it to better bread.

Very good service and food. Tiny location so reserve well ahead. 7:00 means 7:00 if that’s your time. We arrived a bit earlier - only negative was we were told rather abruptly that no we couldn’t wait in the shade outside by their patio since they open at 7. It’s hard to determine an exact arrival time when you’re not sure of the restaurant location as a visitor. But service once seated made up for that encounter.

The food was okay. It felt like it could have been better in terms of a finer dining experience. I can see that care went into the food preparation, but as a total experience it felt a little overrated and like it was resting on old reviews. It also felt like a little bit of a tourist trap.

There were still lots of sands inside the razor clams and the clams....The clams should have been properly cleaned out those sands before serving the customers1
