Sometimes the service is a little slow because the owner is the only one managing the restaurant at quiet times- but if you're happy to enjoy your time, the space and food it's a really great place! The food is delicious and there are good options if you're vegetarian. It's quiet and relaxing, nice music playing and lovely staff. Definitely recommend!

We booked 7.30p.m. on a Saturday and it was about half full. Service was good and we didn’t wait a long time for our meals for four people which were a selection platter of vegetarian and a platter of meats with their very unusual sourdough bread, which is similar to an aerated pancake and it was very appropriate for the types of food because you eat the food with the bread as an eating utensil - you are not given any metal ones, but I assume you can request some. The drinks (we had a bottle of white wine and some Etheopian beers) were very reasonably priced, as were the selection platters. A good evening meal with good service and unusual p, but enjoyable food. Next time we will choose individual items from the menu.
