We celebrated a birthday. A group called f four diners. As it was Sunday night and a very cold, rainy one, the street as well as a he restaurant were very quiet. The ambience is perfect. Very architectural place. The food was delicious even though on the pricy side. Definitely recommended. Especially for special occasions

The calamari starter was so delicious and melting in the mouth. The crispy pork belly main was quite small but the Seafood spaghetti and barramundi were generous potions. Overall the food was good but a bit pricey.
