I absolutely LOVED this place! Exceptional service! A dozen oysters to start and grilled octopus just outstanding. I had a nice cocktail which was great value, my husband had Black Sea bass and asparagus were extremely delicious. All appetizer’s were excellent, and the dinner rolls were quite possibly the best I've ever had. Octopus appetizer was a favorite at our table. Stunning environment with beautiful wood structure and decor. Very well done. I definitely will give WG 5 ⭐️
