6.5/10The service was attentive and professional. The server was very helpful with some diet restrictions. The food however is very pretentious and lacked flavor.

5/10the service was very friendly. In addition, they are good at making delicious cocktails. A big disappointment was the quality of the food, the sea bass was raw while the duck we ordered was very overcooked. all in all, especially considering the high price of the restaurant, this is a very disappointing experience. We advise people not to go to this restaurant.

9.5/10We absolutely loved the food here. Many vegetarian options but with a special flare. Unique combinations of foods - favorite was spinach and kale croquettes and zucchini ratatouille with light béchamel sauce followed by the pumpkin infused Catalan crème brûlée. Service was super! Will be back!

5.5/10Some distes were excellent, but a few were extreme disappointing, especially the eggplant was tasteless Further the tasting .enus that were offered wer not possible to choose from at the table, as we had to take the same one all of us. Why offer the choice then? The tasting .enus turned out to be all the same with an admisión of one fish dish to the land and water choice. For a restaurant that pretends to offer high quality it was below expectativa.

7/10The starters and main course were really good. We didn’t like the desserts for portions and the combination at the end of the meal. The wine pairings was not matching with the courses. Th ambience is very nice and the service attentive. The restaurant has a good potential but needs some works and the bread course and it’s refill is not part of the menu and they are bringing to you as extra but this is not clear until the bills comes.

10/10The food was amazing. Any good restaurant that can do so much with vegetarian food has my complete respect. Coupled with great service.

7.5/10Service was excellent but the dishes in the taster menu were disappointing overall and there is only one mocktail in the menu. Many of the dishes were on the sour side which meant they did not complement each other well. One of the dishes was oversalted.

10/10Fabulous service, delicious, inventive recipes. The green tea bread with smoked butter was a highlight, and the sweet potato ice cream. Very kind staff.

4/10A Bitter disappointment. Based on the reviews, the Menu and the price level we expected a refined dinner experience. The interior of the restaurant is pleasant enough, the staff is trying to be nice and customer oriented but lacks experience. The problem is that the Food is not matching the Quality one is justly expecting. The first four courses of a six course menu were fine, the main course however was a deep disappointment and the Desert less than medioker.

7.5/10There was technical excellence and interesting ideas, but I was disappointed in the flavor profiles. We had the 8-course vegetarian tasting menu. Highlights were the carrot soup of the first course and the carrot risotto as the last entree. A low point for me was the red pepper with egg yolk and caviar - a minor point is that we'd have preferred a slightly more cooked yolk to make the texture jammy, but the seasoning and spices were just off, Other courses tasted better but for me they were not delicious, just good. At this level of cuisine, you want to see creativity and technique, but you also want to have to restrain yourself from licking the plate.
