20/05/2026: Couple's dinner in mid-May. The restaurant is accessed from a private and quiet internal courtyard. There's also ample space for outdoor dining, which is currently unavailable for dinner due to the less than ideal temperatures. The interior opens onto a spacious, expertly renovated farmhouse, enclosed by large iron windows. The room at the back welcomes us with soft lighting, pleasant background music, and beautiful sandblasted brick vaults. The tables are a bit small, rather close together, but well-set, with an intimate atmosphere, particularly suitable for couples or small groups of friends. The restaurant was sparsely crowded, being a Tuesday evening, so very quiet; I couldn't say if it was as intimate and quiet when the restaurant was full. The quality of the food is evident from the first bite, and the waiting time is adequate, confirming the freshly prepared dishes. The dishes all arrived piping hot, carefully presented. The table service was prompt and courteous. A wide selection of wines. A good selection of starters, main courses/side dishes, and desserts, just enough to offer fresh cuisine and meticulously supervise its preparation. The prices are moderately high, but in line with the quality you can taste in the dishes. The fried foods are excellent! Fragrant and crispy, but not greasy. The portions are generous (except for the elephant ear :)!) and allow you to sample a set menu. We'll definitely be back.

02/05/2026: Excellent food, but small portions. Very nice place, but noisy. Service a bit confusing.
