"Had a really great time, great service, take a little bit time for them to serve maybe because it was a busy day."
Davienna Tisnohadi
"I think it’s a very nice place for having lunch but outside I was interrupted by some people as they could pass by easily.
It didn’t impact my mood.
The staff is very friendly and speaks in English. They also helped to remove spice from my meal. I guess there are many guests at lunch time so it was really messy."
Kirill Maksimkin
"A nice place with a romantic atmosphere in the city centre. The waitress I talk to spoke English. The food is tasty, the prices are higher than average though. There are cloth napkins which is the first sign of status. The restaurant is good for dining out or the first date."
