Decided to give this restaurant a try as we new to the area and are looking for some nice places to…read moreeat. Our reservation was for 7,30 and we arrived a little early and as our table wasn't ready we were sat at the bar for a while, this is not uncommon, however we were at the bar for 10mins without being asked if we wanted a drink. When we got our table we both ordered a G&T which was quick to arrive and was a very generous measure. 5 mins later the waitress was over taking out food order, shrimp croquettes for my wife and beef carpaccio for me for starters.

Starters arrived and we managed to order some wine. The carpaccio was ok, I suspect not prepared on site but bought in and garnished with some rocket, pine nuts and olive oil. Nothing I can't do myself. I won't go on anymore about it, suffice it to say service wasn't great, food was ok. Looking for something good to say so, The interior is very clean and well maintained.

The beef stew is AWESOME. The shrimp croquette is deliciously soft on the inside and crispy on the…read moreoutside. And the healthy portion of French fries tops everything off nicely. I also had a draft beer, which was tasty as well. The staff is friendly and attentive. And if you're lucky enough, you can choose between sitting indoor or outdoors- either way this restaurant has a great ambiance to match the food!
