C’était délicieux ! Nous sommes venus manger un midi, et leurs formules sont parfaites pour deux. Le serveur était très sympathique, adresse à recommander.

Fun bar / restaurant that serves tapas style snacks and meals too. We had the sun-snack board with an extra side of bread and it was delicious. They have a large outdoor seating area in the square too.
