Ate outside and it did get a little windy. But the food is always very good. Excellent risotto cacio e pepe! We had guests who were gluten free, and they were able to get GF bread to enjoy the olive oil with. Ready to go back again.

Beautiful atmosphere. Great table by the seaside. Wine by the glass exaggeratedly expensive at 12 euro per glass. Rest of prices are consistent with quality of food and ambience.
