Yesterday, I was with a group of friends at a birthday dinner here for the first time, and I was very pleased with everything this restaurant had to offer. From very polite staff to welcoming atmosphere and amazing seat arrangements. And when it comes to food, they are very generous with the portion sizes and the taste is immaculate. It indeed is a very well recommend restaurant worth visiting!

Shortly said: "It was so nice, that after the first visit, I had to come next day again!" I recommend it. Pizza is great, fresh dough, home-made. The salads and pleskavita fit in 2 bellies (very big). The tastes are incredible, good ingredients and patience in cooking. Very kind staff.
