Wonderful “Saturday night fever” three course menu. Friendly and professional staff and lovely ambiance on the heated and covered outside terrace.

We didn't eat at this little restaurant, however the coffe/cappucino was good. What we liked the most however was the setting. The design was very cute and retro. Pay attention that they are not open all day. Check the timetable to know when they are open.

Dora Klein

Very good overall but not all good and pricey. For that money all should be good. Would still recommend eating there.
