Nice place and excellent seafood. The flow of the ordering is a little different. You walk in and before you are seated the server brings you to the fish counter to order. It might be better to sit the customers first.

This was a new experience for us. The staff was very ready to explain how one could either pick their fish and method of cooking or one could choose something for their ready menu. The food was delicious. An amuse bouche of fried anchovies was light and tasty. We chose some fried sardines as an appetizer. Our dishes were orecchiette with octopus and pasta with mussels, ( already out of their shells) Very good. The restaurant is very pleasant. I would categorize it as casual, white tablecloth. Would definitely return.

I guess it could work to pick your own fish or seafood if that was guided, it was not :-( tun tartar with jalapeno lacked jalapeno, fritto misto was underfried, the raw prawns had not had even had the brown line removed, grilled snapper was bland. The chicory over cooked. All in all a bland experience

We had to wait in a queue for 5 minutes to order at the fish bar with our coats still on like at McDonalds before we were taken to our table. Most of the food was good but cannelloni had obviously sat under a heat lamp for too long and was hard. The worst part was being handed the bill (without asking for it) after dessert without being asked if we wanted any coffee. When we asked for a coffee when it was brought grudgingly we were rudely told to drink it quickly because they wanted to close the restaurant. It wasn't even 10.00 yet and it was a 08.00 reservation. Other patrons experienced the same rude experience - 'pay and get out'. It was Christmas Eve so I understand staff wanting to leave early but you should have at least given advance warning of an early closure at booking time or when we arrived.

High quality seafood restaurant with a twist-you get to literally choose the seafood you will eat. We had a number of pastas that were all delicious, salmon, frito misto and salads.. We wouldn’t order the salads again as they were iceberg lettuce and unripe tomatoes. The wine list is reasonable and so was the pricing of the dinner. The atmosphere is lovely. Would definitely come back again.

The food was excellent and served promptly. This fish restaurant is unusual in that you go up to the fish counter, where all the produce is laid out on ice, select the fish you want and then go to your table and wait for it to be cooked. A great idea but I found it hard to understand the choices and how it worked, even though the menu was translated into English. When the food came it was beautifully fresh and well presented, almost raw it had been grilled so lightly. Really good, I’d go again, but probably in a larger group of 4 or more so you can have a selection of fish and share across everyone

The atmosphere in the place was nice but the food was such a disappointment. Everything was completely bland with absolutely no flavour. After serving our starter and main, the staff did not come over to check how our dishes were so we didn’t have a chance to mention that we were not happy. The wine was good, the bread and the sides mediocre. Our mains were so bland that my partner left 3/4 of a fish that cost 70euros. The quality of the food was absolutely not worth the price. Do not go here.

We dined here the other night and had a wonderful experience. The place, the service and of course, the food, were all exceptional. Oysters, scampi and fried anchovies. Taste treats each. Celiac, is not a problem. Thank you.

The food--we had Sea bass--was excellent. The concept of the restaurant includes having the patrons set their menu by choosing from the array of fresh fish and shellfish displayed on a bed of ice. There was a good selection of wines for our taste and budget. The experience would have been much more enjoyable if the staff had been warmer in their greeting, explaining the process, and seating us at our table rather than just pointing at it. In fact being seated on arrival with a little explanation of the menu and selection process would have been nice. We came away with the feeling that these folks don't enjoy what they are doing.

Absolutely amazing food, you won't be disappointed! The octopus is the best we have ever had! The let down was the toilet, no soap or paper and we had the resavation for just after they opened at 7:30 pm.

Fresh and well cooked dishes. Service on the average without explanation of dishes when they arrive. Ambience cool inside. I would have expected more client oriented service.
