I was super impressed with the food of this restaurant!

For Appetizers, we got: stracciatella & merguez
mains: mushroom pasta & rabbit

The food was all super well made & delicious. Flavours & texture was all great. Would definitely come back. Portion was more on the smaller side, I recommend sharing plates with a group to try a variety of dishes

We took the tasting menu, & it was so good! Everything was well seasoned & well balanced. You can tell they put a lot of attention on what they cook. The portions were generous, especially considering it was a tasting menu. We started the night saying we were gonna take pictures of all the food but it was so good we forgot to take pictures of most of it. We definitely will be back
