4.5 / 5.0(149 reviews)
Definitely worth to visit and try something from their menu. We got “Catch of the day” and it was an excellent choice. Other group members got burger which was also super tasty. We returned completely empty plates 🙂 Dessert plate is a must. Staff is very nice and friendly and will help you with the recommendation or in case of any question. As some reviews mentioned previously to our visit, the waiting time was long. We waited super long to get our food. So be prepared to wait a long time to get your food. They also don’t have a lot of allergy-friendly options for dinner. We asked for no onions or garlic for the mussels and the server immediately told us it was not possible. But then the mussels arrived and they were just with coconut milk no onions or garlic inside? So how was that not an option… They did however cook the steak in oil instead of butter! The food itself was pretty bland too. Not a lot of flavours. Mussels tasted bland even the aioli didn’t taste like aioli. It felt like they didn’t even add salt to the dishes. The steak portion wasn’t big either, just two small pieces and was pretty chewy. So all in all not the best dinner option in town. Fantastic and charming service, really wonderful food! Was informed by our server halfway through dinner that the Aurora was happening so we ran outside to see the beautiful lights. Our server came and checked on us outside to remind us of our food getting cold!
