in the last weekThe food is medium, and the octopus was swimming in oil. But the worst part is the entrance: the man welcoming guests is extremely unpleasant, cold, and clearly selective about who he chooses to be friendly with. No smile, no warmth, just a hard stare and a dry “How can I help you?” that feels more like a test than a welcome. Inside, the waiter keeps trying to upsell everything, which makes the whole experience uncomfortable. Overall, a tourist trap I wouldn’t return to.
