"The food was very fresh and delicious. We had the chicken with citrus. The chicken was perfectly cooked. The mixed salad was very crisp and fresh. Lots of bread. Tuna tartare was very fresh and good. Service was very fast. We did not love the American music blasting but other than that it was great."

"I don't normally comment, but I couldn't resist sharing my opinion about this place. As a pizza chef for a couple of years and a pizza addict, I can say that the most mouth-watering pizza I have ever eaten in my life was from this shop. I don’t think I can compare any other pizza to the one I had here—I even ate two pizzas for dinner."

"Amazing restaurant! The staff were extremely friendly and attentive, we dined here two nights in a row because we were so happy with this place and on the second night we were given a free desert! Food was delicious and tasted very fresh. Service was fast and we were catered to extremely well. The interior is beautiful with lovely colourful design and great art on the walls. Fantastic experience, highly recommend!"

"We visited this restaurant based on a recommendation from our B&B owner, and it did not disappoint! The food was absolutely delicious, and the staff was incredibly warm, welcoming, and soft-spoken, making the experience even more enjoyable. We ordered a pizza, which was perfectly baked, and the gnocchi—rich and creamy with a flavorful pesto sauce and a delightful crunch from the walnuts. A wonderful dining experience overall!"
