    The food was not very good. Menu is very small and if you don’t like seafood or very fancy food, there isn’t anything on the menu for you.

    On ne peux pas dire que ce n’était pas bien, mais c’est vraiment surfait ! J’ai essayé de joindre le restaurant pendant deux jours afin de demander une information et impossible. Le repas est très correct. L’ambiance est chaleureuse mais clairement pas niveau du prix.

    Great location, overpriced food that was unimpressive. Service was overstaffed yet somehow lacking. For example, asked for a drink menu when we sat and after ordering, but didn’t receive u til after we received the appetizers l. Do yourself a favor and just book appetizer and drinks at the bar, skip the restaurant.

    Lovely meal with a gorgeous view - we went there for lunch post sightseeing and enjoyed some great local dishes and drinks. While it is pricier compared to similar dishes at an Osteria, it is an experience in its self.

    The food was disappointing to say the least. We ordered off the à la carte menu. The seafood spaghetti was average, otherwise the remainder of dishes were not what I would expect from a Michelin star restaurant. Would not return, unfortunately.
