“ Symphatic restaurant led by a sympathic team. We had lunch on the terrace and took the lunch menu. The starter was somt confite tomatoes with a mix of cheese which was very good, as main we had grilled octopus with a lovely parsley sauce and duck roasted with honey. The desert was quite sumptuous, homemade filled sponge cake with a chantilly and English cream. Overall a very good lunch, price vs quality is there, only comment would be to make the starter a bit bigger portion-wise. ”
