What diners are saying
Diners consistently praise the exceptional food quality and creative use of fresh herbs like mint and basil, calling it some of the best in the city. Standout dishes include the perfectly cooked scallops, duck special, lamb, and a celebrated branzino, though some guests note portions can be on the smaller side. The atmosphere is described as welcoming and lovely, perfect for special occasions like anniversaries, with attentive service and well-crafted cocktails like sangria adding to the experience. While the kitchen earns high marks, one review noted a serious concern regarding cleanliness.
