"Fabulous dessert restaurant. Very helpful, kind and attentive staff who was willing to go the extra mile for us. The desserts and pomegranate juice drink was fabulous. A place with a lovely atmosphere, we really enjoyed our visit there and might be back soon! :))"

"Very disappointing breakfast. I ordered avocado toast and received a couple of slices of toast with an almost transparent layer of avocado. On top of the toast were two hard-boiled very dry eggs. The breakfast was tasteless and dry.
It also took a very long time for breakfast to arrive. Don’t recommend. We won‘t come again"
