    For the price it was not the best experience and as it was a special occasion that was not reflected either.

    We went as a group of 6. Lovely view. Our favourite dish was House-baked pillow sourdough, truffle and beef fat candle. Good atmosphere and music was not too loud. Definitely recommended
