Don’t be starved! Dinner took 2 1/2 hours. An hour to get a drink, and it was wretched. No bartender skills. The starting crackers and dip were good. The food overall was tasty. But totally marred by the super long wait with noone ever checking up on us. We were charged 5. for a split plate and we never even got a second plate, had to scrape our food off onto bread plates. Unclear on the concept. If you have all night and like big portions of simple but decent food, ok. Otherwise there are far better places to eat close by.
