"A neighbourhood gem! It's a very spacious place, always quiet and their recipes are so original and elegant, with very upscale plating.I recommend their warm mushroom balls as starters, the marinated octopus salad if you're feeling adventurous. They also have excellent takes on classics like fish and chips or salmon pave. Whatever I had here felt very wholesome and comforting. Did I mention they have spectacular desserts? In a nutshell, this place looks unassuming in comparison with the quality of their food offering, which feels so much more de luxe. Their pricing is really fair too, so you can have the 5 star experience at a very decent price."
