One of our party's dietary restrictions were taken care of with consideration. Staff have charm and are outwardly confident about about the food with good reason. Every last one of us was extremely satisfied. We will make it our go to spot for family gatherings. The Sauvignon Blanc was delicious for a fussy bunch.

We opted for the set menu at €40 pp for starters and main course. Highly recommend this little place and we will definitely be back.
