Lovely service, very attentive and helpful. Food is excellent. We decided on a small plates mixed with sharing plates and it was all good. Restaurant isn't large, so I think it would be worth booking to avoid disappointment. We visited on a Monday at 8:30pm and we got the last table.

Очень понравилось Был в обед. Зал небольшой, но место нашлось. Еда не совсем традиционная, но этим и интересно. Вкусно Хороший выбор вина, что опять таки отлично. Теперь надо проверить место на ужин )
