My friend and I had such a wonderful evening there. The garden is so beautiful and makes that whole experience very special. We were lucky to visit in summer, where you can book at the terrace and enjoy the flowers and lovely decoration. The food was delicious, but I was really in love with the drinks, actually. Do try the cocktails! The best part was the staff. Absolutely friendly, lovely people. Can't wait to go back!
I celebrated my birthday over brunch with a few friends, and we had a very good experience. The staff was very accomodating to reserve a table in the garden, just where I wanted, where it was nice and shady. The overall atmosphere is beautiful, they also have an actual garden in the back, it feels very hidden and special. The food was good and the service was nice. My only issue is that the coffee isn't as good as in specialty coffee places, however, everything else compensates for it.
The experience was good, but the food served includes components from their garden, but the overall pricing needs a second thought from the Restaurant. It is just a bit upscaled and the portions of meat served is underwhelming. Still a great place to be.
A cozy and beautiful place to eat or have brunch with amazing flavours from their garden All the dishes that we tried were diverse in flavour and delicious We had the duck, risotto and the burrata and at the end the tiramisu
