While the restaurant and staff were great, and the food in general was tasty, our entrees were served with much more rice than main dish, and that made me think it was not a particularly good value for the money. We enjoyed sitting on the patio and people watching, but I don't think we will eat there again because there just wasn't enough of the main course in proportion to the rice. The appetizers were very good, but again, quite small portions.
