Reviews Summary

"The food was plentiful and delicious. Peppi was very attentive and polite. Our first meal here and we thoroughly enjoyed it. "Ottimo""

"Personally, I really enjoyed my french toast! It was tasty. I don’t recommend the “mint slushy” it is very strong mint, almost like you are drinking mouthwash! But to each their own! Some friends of mine had the mussels, clams, a seafood mix and one said it was okay and one said it was great! I don’t think this would be the place to go for seafood considering it’s a bakery!😂 We had a nice waiter, and good service. Overall, it’s a decent stop!"

"Nice place to chill after walking on the sun at the Hercelaneum. Cover charge and service is 2,50€ per person if you take food, for drink there is no charge. A lot of tourists and local people coming here."
