"Great food and service. Have eaten here several times during our stay. Today we had the shrimp Bali bowl and a salmon salad with some fries. Everything was great, but the Bali bowl was especially nice.
The Tiramisu is a perfect wrap up after your meal.
Check it out."

"This is the cosiest bistro you could imagine. With a view of a lagoon, and in the middle of a beautiful garden, little can take your mind away from the moment. The vegan sushi bowl, "Yumi" is do die for. Perfectly balanced and colourful. It is a delight to eat. My partner had the veggie mushroom burger without cheese. And liked it a lot. Especially the vegan mayonese. Also, there are somen options, and several home made desserts, and loads of vegan options. Drinks options are also bountyful. Come one day just before sunset, and enjoy the flight of the birds every evening around this time. A sight not to be missed."
