First visit: 4 stars
Second visit: 3 stars
Third visit: 5 stars
On the First Visit, there were only drinks. Which was a nice evening And After that, I was extremely excited to go back and also try the food!
Unfortunately, the second visit here was a bit of a disappointment, 100% due to the rambunctious waiter who had a terribly boring attitude. Just over.
And the saddest thing is that my sister turned 30 and we were there to celebrate her.
We were greeted by nice and welcomed head waiters who gave us our table. Then came the waiter who ruined everything.
We ordered the salmon, roe pizza, cauliflower and Veal to share. For this, we wanted tips on a bottle of white wine that fit during dinner. There are EXTREMELY many wines so we didn't know what to go for. ask and was advised " take something you like "... looks on for a long time and I think I recognize one of the names " is
This wine dry? We don't want them to be fruity or sour " Then got the answer " yes they are dry. Go up in price if you want it drier but it's a dry wine"
I say " shall we test them then?" To my sister because we didn't get any help at all and he chimes in with " if I open the bottle you can drink up the " jahap.. So yes.. When he later came with the most disgusting bottle of wine we've drunk in our lives, we couldn't even bear to speak up, just hold our noses and pour in. But terribly boring. However, the food was good. But these 4 dishes became too much for two to share.
Salmon: 3.5/5
Roe pizza:5/5
Cauliflower: 4.5/5
Calf: 5/5
The roe pizza is really what good people say. Absolutely perfect and magical!!!! Cauliflower amazing but strong. The calf, a lot of flavors. The salmon, really good but the others delivered more.
A drink to finish off as we go to the bar to avoid the waiter. Here it was better atmosphere!
Quite simply,Good drinks Good food. Terrible service and treatment of the waiter who ruined the evening.
Visit three:
Went back to work only because of the roe pizza that I had raised to
Skies. We had another waitress and she was super nice and helpful, but even she had problems with what kind of wines she would recommend because there is so much to choose from.
We shared the roe pizza, just as amazing this time! And my company liked it too. I took the duck, good fried and good flavors too. The sauce was super good and the fries added. They took the calf and got no carbohydrates at all, only calf with vegetables and were a little disappointed in them. As if something was missing. But va pleased with the flavors.
The dessert became a macaron for me that was good and a vacuum cleaner for my company... well a little too small maybe. Barely two bites.
Will 100% definitely go back here because of good food and good drinks, but will also be guaranteed 100% turn in the door if I were to get the nasty waiter again at a dinner. It's not worth a visit then.
First visit: The entrance, wow! Inviting and welcoming! Down a flight of stairs you are met by a bar, they are full of people, music and a noisy atmosphere. Just to my taste!
Was very crowded when we were there, Not so much seating and a bit crowded as the table is near the bar but it works.
Super good drinks! They were a whiskey sour and bubbly and the drink was perfect!
Going here in a few weeks and testing the food, I'm looking forward to that! The menu sounds amazing!
