"Nice place, good food, great view and qtmosphere."
MARIAN MIRAUTE
"The place is not what it used to be. It is very clear that the management are incompetent and unable to manage the upkeep. I was very embarrassed to bring my friends and family who traveled from another country to the place. The toilet is repulsive. The cocktails are the worst I’ve had in Maputo. It had reputation of best pastel de natas, but would never recommend the place to anyone ever again. Very dirty, couches terrible. The menus are so overused and rotated, I was disgusted just touching them. This place is a run down gem. Change management urgently."
Taylor Dunn
"Cozy place, nice both for breakfast, lunch and for drinks at the end of the day (they also have the usual pastry side). Nice view of Maputo Bay. If you enjoy live music, they have it on Fridays and Saturdays at the end of the day. Service is cool if it is not a busy night."
