    We arrived at correct time and got the table after some struggling finding our reservation. After a short while the staff campe with some dry biscuits, bread and the menu. No smile, but okei anyway. We waited about 45 minutes to get the food, and my husbands dish was grilled mix platter with NO sauce. He asked for the sauce, but then they forgot it again. The food got cold. I ordered pizza, and it was fair enough. The whole experience was not worth 50 euros, I am so sorry to say. We had good expectations because of the reviret on TripAdvisor.

    The place is nicely situated close to the harbor. Nice atmosphere! The waitresses were attentive and polite. We ordered the platter for starter and it was good, plenty of hams, salami, focaccia and cheese. Recommended! The meat looked good and we wanted to try the Wagye rib eye. At 18€ per 100g, the minimum order turned out to be 500g. It was a bit too much meat for us… we ended up ordering pasta which was too heavy and peppery and the salmon burger where the salmon was very dry. Our kids had the Carbonara which also had too much pepper and was too heavy. All in all; lovely place and nice staff, but the food was not what we had expected,

    Really great food! Very good choice of meat. The waiter comes to the table and shows the yummy meat before/when you order. You can see the meat in the cooling / ripening cabinet! Steak was fantastic, side disehs as well. Uncredible choice of beer. Good and flexible service. We - 2 people - didn't like the first table and got - despite rush hour - a nice table for 4. I highly recommend!

    Pushy waiter, trying to up scale wine and food, seen it before, and will not accept it. It felt like a fast food restaurant, not what I was hoping for.

    Can tell they really love their meat from the passion in showing off the aged beef. Great service and our beef was done perfectly!

    We had a couple of very tasty burgers, dessert & a lovely glass of wine each. The burger was well cooked, & handmade which ensured it was tasty. They clearly understand the value of quality beef - even in a burger.

    The food and service was wonderful. Rare Steak perfectly cooked and tender. Mixed grill was tasty, although would prerer not to be on a hot skillet, to prevent it continuing to cook. Portion sizes are perfect, enough but not too much. Would definately recommend.

    Other than the Fiorentina steak, all the rest weren’t tasty at all!! We were sat on a dirty table that was dripping on us once in two minutes, and after they were told about that they did not to anything to try to solve it. The are way overrated in all the other applications as well. Very disappointing !!

    Rude host, steak items on the menu non existent, was offered 2 choices from more than 15 steak items on the menu, excuse from the host was “it is impossible to have all the steaks on the menu in stock” would never go bear this place again it’s a tourist rip off establishment, I’m travelling in this area for business and pleasure for the last 20 years or so and this is the first place I would rate at -10 out of 10

    Great steak, reasonable price. We went for the 500g flank steak and was plenty for 2. Sides were nice but a bit salty. Great for steak in desenzano del garda

    Nice spirit, nice location, the burger seemed nice but mine was empty (missing the oignons, the pistacchio, and the bacon in the TASTY BURGER) so it was kind of dry with only the meat and the bread. The meat of my friend was very nice and well cooked, but 5 euros added for potatoes is a little bit expensive, especially with the price of the meat, could be served with the meat. Although, the beer is perfect and cheap and the wine too. Overall, good concept but very disappointed of my burger.

    Nice place in front of the lake. A proper steak house with a wide variety of meat dishes, as well as pizza and burgers. Couldn’t help feeling it was too touristic though.

    We have passed by many times , and the food always looked good. Last night 4 of us booked , and we weren't disappointed. We had a mixed grill , a meat burger , a steak and a chicken burger and all were perfect. 1 had a chocolate cheese cake and he said it was gorgeous. 100 % we will return.
