Decisamente la migliore offerta per qualità e prezzo! Ho sperimentato la formula menù del giorno e sono rimasto molto soddisfatto, allo stesso prezzo in giro si trova decisamente meno. Il servizio è stato veloce ed il personale è molto attento e cordiale. Esperienza decisamente positiva

Ci siamo stati un venerdì a pranzo e abbiamo mangiato con menù fisso primo o secondo + contorno. Prezzi onesti e cibo nella normalità (niente di particolarmente eccelso o da consigliare particolarmente). Forse meglio prendere i piatti alla carta del giorno che vedevamo essere più interessanti. Personale super cordiale e disponibile. Locale con dehor esterno.

Sono stato a cena, facilmente raggiungibile con comodo parcheggio. La location accogliente è abbastanza curata, per come si mangia meriterebbe sicuramente di meglio. Veniamo ai piatti, qualitativamente molto buoni polpette di pesce ben fatte coccanti fuori morbide dentro con la sua purea di melanzane molto buona. Gamberi in kataify perfetti giusta quantità di kataify. Cappe sante perfette come cottura nn invadente il pangrattato. Orata involtini cottura perfetta morbidezza interna croccanti fuori, unico neo l impanatura di mandorle poco presente. Perfetta la scorza di limone presente. Passatelli con gamberi e agrumi molto buoni. Tortino riso con pistacchi, mi ha ricordato la torta di riso fatta in casa. La riprenderei. Il servizio gentile e accurato. Ci tornerò Complimenti Piero

Il locale è piccolo ed intimo, perfetto per godersi una cena in relax. Abbiamo preso una fantasia di pesce e due grigliate di pesce davvero buone. Servizio attento e gentile. A fine pasto, ci sono stati offerti dei biscottini da gustare con l'amaro (una bella coccola). I sacrifici e la passione di queste persone devono e sono ripagati da tanta bontà e professionalità. Bravi

Qualita' alta, mangiato e bevuto bene, posizione comoda ma certo non affascinante
