Selected Client Reviews
“The atmosphere, the food, the service were very pleasant. I also liked the fact that the tables were private, not next to each other. Of the dishes, I liked the Siig, the dumplings, the octopus, and the ice cream and Tiramizu for dessert.
Thank you again, we will definitely visit you again :) “
