"This place surprised us with the tastes, its luxurious simplicity and Italian cuisine with refined character. I am rather quite reserved when it comes to ordering seafood and especially mussels ( that I am big fan of). But when it comes to this place it was unnecessary, because it was unexpectedly delicious with interesting herbal heart in it! Even my quests of refined tastes were positively surprised with this food. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The charm of the owners made it last the whole evening. PS: Even the usually picky kids loved the roasted seafood!"

"An amazing hidden restaurant. It sits, kind of unassuming, between the st. Lucy church and the harbor, and we almost missed it when returning to our hotel, but I'm glad we didn't! Absolutely amazing service, atmosphere and food. They specialize in fish dishes, and are very attentive to personal preferences."
