Apr 30, 2026"The seafood/octopus rice was awesome — generous portions with fresh, flavorful seafood. The service from the staff was kind, warm, and quick. Reasonably priced for the quality too. This is a small restaurant with a limited number of tables, so I'd definitely recommend reserving one beforehand."

Apr 27, 2026"Excellent service, very friendly. We were seated after 10 minutes near the front of the restaurant. We liked both our servers. The food was delicious. We ordered 1 seafood rice, 1 bolognese spaghetti, 4 daily soups and 2 drinks among the 4 of us. Very flavourful seafood rice. I’m not a seafood person, but the sauce was very delicious. There was a unique flavour to the bolognese that I highly recommend. The soups were vegetable soups that were creamy and comforting."
