We ate here with our family. The food was delicious and the Kids loved it. Menu was also in English and contained loads of lactose and gluten free options. Service was very friendly.

Very much a magical experience. Suberb king prawns, nice plate with cheeses and more and a good salmon salad

Hidden treasure! Amazingly beautiful and stylish restaurant and cocktail bar. Dignified and trendy. Meanwhile Italian cuisine. Their tuna steak is extraordinary! And tiramisu… The only place in the city on Sundays for an impressive brunch. 10/10

We discovered this nearly by sheer luck (mainly because we could see it from the parking place near the amphitheater), and what luck we had! The food is great, but the service is even nicer. Wonderful little conversations, with excellent recommendations! The aglio e olio and lemon posset are simply *chefs kiss*. Special mention for the chef due to the plating of the dishes. Doesn't matter that much but when it is paired with good flavors, it's also a visual treat on your plate! The music was a little modern compared to the decor, and there's a piano that you could fancy playing if you like. Outdoor seating also possible. Free parking just 2 mins away by walk. A free first aid kit available in the spacious bathroom. Absolutely recommend!

The ambiance of the restaurant itself is great, it has a romantic and classic vibe. It fits both semi-casual and formal dining preferences. The servers are kind and easy to talk to, and they explain the menu very well. And the food itself is amazing! I have eaten here a few times and I definitely recommend their creamy seafood risotto! The mussels blend into the dish without making it overly salty, the shrimps are cooked to perfection with a great bouncy bite to it, and the salmon is pan-seared gorgeously which retains its slight crisp and the seared flavor even while being in a creamy risotto. The risotto itself is creamy and perfectly al dente! Desserts and drinks are also delectable; creme brulee, cheesecake, croissants, apple donuts, iced coffee drinks, glögi, everything! Would love to visit again and again.

Every vegan option they had was nice. I'd recommend sitting inside because of the mosquitoes though.

Maybe one of the best restaurants in town. Good service and great food. Also the location in historic villa right by the church was nice.
