Ottimi sia i primi che gli antipasti. I miei preferiti: polenta al ragù di polpo e I briganti vanno al mare 😍 Carino il giardino sul retro dove si può mangiare al fresco d'estate. Carinissime al servizio. Tornerò!

Cibo davvero buono, piatti originali ma comunque semplici, qualità ottima. Posto piacevole e personale gentile e simpatico. Sicuramente torneremo per provare altri piatti (dico solo che l'amica con cui ero a cena era la seconda volta che veniva in due settimane). Prezzi non economici ma credo in linea con la qualità

Posto tranquillo, musica jazz di sottofondo, una cena per due perfetta: ottimo pesce, fresco e per niente banale. Ho mangiato dei crostini al tonno cotti nel vinsanto fenomenali, gamberoni alla griglia buonissimi, tonno saporito e verdure croccanti in salsa di soia veramente speciali! Cortesia e disponibilità hanno caratterizzato la serata. Da ritornarci spesso.. magari anche una volta a settimana come mi è stato suggerito 😅
