Surprised that this place doesn't have more reviews. What a lovely little restaurant, we were inticed inside by a very friendly young waitress and seated at a lovely table at the front of the restaurant overlooking the harbour. Service was lightning fast but still friendly, drinks ordered and arrived very quickly, the house red was extremely good. The food arrived soon after and was also extremely tasty and well prepared. Minor niggles in the translation of the menu into English and the lack of plates when the complimentary bread arrived but so minor and didn't ruin a lovely dining experience. Less busy than the restaurants on the main square. Highly recommended for a lovely meal and very reasonably priced.
