You will wait in line but it is worth it! Inside is tiiiiny and narrow so do not come with a lot of bags or people. Best for parties of one or two, max 3. Staff is efficient, friendly and as accommodating as possible. The beef cheeks and suckling pig are the order here.

Piatti eccellenti, servizio veloce e cordiale, locale caratteristico, prezzi un po’ elevati (in linea con San Sebastian)
