"Friends introduced me to this restaurant on my visit. The service was incredible, as was the menu and wine list. We were five, and so we had multiple appetizers and main courses. We focused mainly on fresh fish (and the fois gros). The pastas were fresh and delicious The Italian wines recommended were first rate. The experience was excellent."

"It’s been finally possible to visit this restaurant after trying to make reservations several times which have failed. This time we made a reservation for Friday night a week earlier. However this Friday there were only 3 tables including ours. The food was fantastic, the kitchen which is visible entirely was clean, tidy and well maintained. It always gives me a peaceful mind when i see the owner of the restaurant is also the chef, and he was taking care of every dish getting out of his kitchen. Other than courses on the photo, we want to try a desert but it didn’t take good credits. I would say the desert was the only negative thought I do have. Prices are is a bit at high end, but considering the quality received, it is still ok."

"We went out for a family dinner. The san jacques risotto was amazing. The seafood risotto was not that great. When we made the reservation we were not told that their POS has not been working for the past week - kind of a lame excuse considering the dishes are around 20 EUR each. Also, the aircon inside was switched off so we sat outside. Maybe they were trying to save some $"

"This was a wonderful experience! The atmosphere is so laid back and friendly, that we immediately felt welcomed. The staff was professional yet not overwhelming, accommodating and respectful. They cared to all our needs and made great suggestions. The food was delicious, the portions well balanced. This place is on another level, food wise. The only (small) downside was the location, between a mall and an apartment building."
