"Really tasty food, service is excellent, place is a tourist attraction to distract the family. The people from there make the place more special too. The FAROFA is addicting, so good it is!"

"terrible experience, the location is nice, but the service and the cook were not. we wanted a main dish but change the side dish, which where all available on the menu, but they refused to change cheese mashed potatoes with any kind of pasta! as a lactose intolerant person I asked nicely and several staff members to talk to the cook, which they did,but the cook refused to change the side dish. nothing else to add here, I will never come back nor recommend this place. up and down the road are lots of better places with better service and reasonable cooks"
