"Charming restaurant, 3 menu options (one for lunch, 2 degustacion more expensive). Food is creative, but not exceptional (meat was a bit dry, the vegetables chips a bit burned, the favours tasty but nothing oustanding). Attentive service and great local wines by glass."

"We had a lovely dinner here. We went for the signature menu (6-course) and the dishes were well prepared and well explained. We got to taste many different type of dishes and flavours, and were pleasantly surprised with the combinations. The staff is very friendly as well and very welcoming. It is recommended to reserve a table before you visit. They speak English and if you scan the QR code, there are more languages available to read the menu. Nearby are parking spaces. Thank you for this lovely evening!"
