What guests are saying
"I was asked by a waiter how was the food today for our Mother’s Day lunch. Unfortunately it wasn’t all great, the starter plate was the highlight of my meal, all 3 pieces were delicious. Half of our table had the lasagna, the others the veal. All of us mentioned it was lukewarm, the lasagna tasteles"
