Overall a nice experience. Can recommend it.

The selection of dishes in the Taster Manu was great. The balance of spice, the order of dishes and taste was just divine. Granita was not down to my taste, but that is perhaps personal. Also, I would suggest a little more time between the dishes, but then again, it’s my preference... We loved it, celebrated our wedding anniversary and were treated by complimentary cake, which also tasted great. Service was fantastic, with story and explanation before every dish served. Much appreciated, we are looking forward to our next visit.
