    For starters we had the; Chicken Parfait and Iberico Croquettes. Both excellent For our main course we opted for the Cote de Boeuf, medium rare. Perfectly cooked to order and a generous sized meal for 2. We choose a lovely bottle of Italy Primitivo wine to accompany the meal. We were pleasently surprised when the chef visited our table and offered us the opportunity to sample two of his new "christmas menu" deserts. Even though we hard very litte room left and our main meal, we gladly accepted the offer. The creme brulee was given a very high score. The poached pear was very seasonal but perhaps overly spiced. We dined early on a quiet Wed evening. Very nice ambience in the dining area and the service was excellent throughout. Food pricing is a little on the high side but the food was excellent. The only negative would be the particularly high prices of the wine list. Cheapest red starts at €39.

    I went for breakfast and requested a slight change to a standard menu item, but it was initially served incorrectly. However, they quickly corrected it without making me wait too long. The waitstaff were very kind, and the environment was clean and bright. It's a place I would definitely like to visit again.
