2 weeks agoThe grilled salmon and tuna were good, but served with just boiled potatoes, carrots, and broccoli… the service was very slow. Be warned, they bring bread, butter, and olives when they seat you, but charge you without warning if you eat… and if you don't eat, check the bill carefully because they charge you even if you haven't eaten anything! We had to tell them and show them photos that we had only eaten the bread and the sardine pâté.
