Excellent small Italian restaurant with friendly service and good food. My loup de mer was excellent. I go back.

"Excellent" doesn't quite fit the whole experience. The food was delicious and the service was as attentive and informative as you wish it to be. We had salmon carpaccio (just a little too much of a dressing), seafood (just amazing!), loup de mer, Spaghetti with salmon, saddle of lamb in olive crust (amazingly tender and tasty) and rack of a lamb (maybe just a little dry when not right at the bone). The critics are on high high level, so I still give 5* rating! The pricing is higher than in other restaurants though it's definitely worth it! Would recommend!

Der Geschmack des Essens ist wirklich ausgezeichnet. Jeder Bissen ein Gaumenschmaus. Im Sommer kann man schön draußen sitzen, ansonsten ist es eher ein kleinerer, dennoch gemütlicher Laden mit einem sehr sympathischen und bemühten Inhaber.
