The food was great as was the service. The only disappointment was they had advertised that they had octopus as an option. My friend was very looking forward to trying it. Despite the confirmation that they did have octopus, it was never served. Personally, I don’t care for it and I didn’t miss it but my friend did. Otherwise, the food was great and all of the staff was friendly and helpful. We will definitely be returning!!
