This restaurant is a favourite with my family. They like to eat here. They like the steak, filet and burgers. I ordered the chicken filtet which was tasty and well prepared.

“Delicious food, modern and clean”
We were there with a large group. Service was efficient, and fast. They got everyone's order correctly, which often doesn't happen with a large group. All the food was excellent!

MoreThe evening was a celebration with my son and daughter in law. From the moment we entered we were attended to by more than one staff member. Our waiter, Yonatan, was quick, gracious, knowledgeable about all the dishes and totally spot on with his recommendations. We shared three first courses, all of which were tasty starts to our evening. The four main courses were so large that despite their outstanding presentation and taste we could not finish it all. These included the hamburger, entrecote, asado (veal) and lamb chops.(Their asado was indescribably delicious both as a starter and a main and the lamb chops and entrecote were picked clean.) We had two desserts that were good but in truth were destined to be out shone by the main courses. Highly recommended
